Buffalo Plaid (and your guide to Black Friday sales happening NOW!)

On November 26, 2014November 25, 2014 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

It’s no secret that I love a great plaid shirt. In fact, I have to limit how many plaid shirts I wear in a week!! They are such an easy go-to in my closet this time of year, it’s hard not to gravitate towards them! So on the eve of Thanksgiving, I thought it was fitting that my 3rd and final outfit idea for you turkey day festivities was a plaid shirt. After all, a bright red buffalo check shirt is the perfect festive look to wear during the holidays-especially when paired back to a pair of favorite leggings, a cozy fur vest, and some killer pumps or boots!

This week I want to show you guys three different looks to wear for your Thanksgiving festivities. Whether your dinner is a casual affair, or a dressier event, this weeks posts will hopefully provide some inspiration to help you dress for any Thanksgiving occasion! And today, I wanted to start with a super comfy, casual look (similar to what I will be wearing for our Thanksgiving feast!). I mean really, what could be better than pairing your favorite leggings with a comfy tunic and over-the-knee boots? A look as comfy as pajamas, but totally appropriate for any holiday meal.

A few months ago, I would never have considered sharing a no-makeup selfie (let alone 2!) with all of you, but now that I am using R+F, I feel completely confident au naturale, and I wanted to show you guys not only how great my skin looked after just one month of use of this product, but how much better my skin looks even now!

Layers

On November 18, 2014November 17, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

We have had such a mild fall here in the SLC, that I almost forgot how brutal it can be to have to take blog photos during the winter months. But boy, was I sure reminded in a hurry when we shot these photos on Saturday. I guess it’s time to break out the winter coats, and pile on the layers. And speaking of layers? Surplus vests over plaid and flannels is still a combo at the top of my list this season…

Instagram Filter: Hudson

Flannel: Express (the shoulders have sequins!! I LOVE this shirt!), non-sequin version here | Vest: H&M (old), similar | Necklace: Stella & Dot (old), similar, LOVE this one | Skinnies: American Eagle Denim X, similar | Sunnies: Karen Walker, less expensive version | Clutch: Michael Kors | Booties: INC (most comfortable and cutest booties EVER!)

Hope your week is off to a great start and more importantly, that you are staying warm during this arctic front!!! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr….

Queen of Hearts

I love a great heart print sweater or sweatshirt-kind of takes me back to being a kid in the ’80’s! But a great print is always a super easy way to dress up an otherwise basic outfit. And who doesn’t love a great pop of cobalt blue? Blue is one of the colors this season and I am absolutely loving it!

Instagram Filter: Hudson

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! It was freezing here in the SLC, so we ate lots of comfort food and warmed up in the hot tub! But the cooler weather definitely got me in the holiday spirit and has left me feeling excited! I love all of the anticipation of this time of year!

Happy Monday!

Leopard Love

On November 14, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

You know me, I love leopard. So when I spotted this jacket while I was in SF for business meetings a couple of weeks ago, I knew it was a perfect addition to my closet. And when everyone asked about it when I posted it on my Instagram last week (follow me at @alldoledupblog if you haven’t already!), I knew it had to make an appearance on the blog….

Instagram Filter: Hudson

Jacket: RACHEL Rachel Roy (it’s on sale for under $50 right now!!!!!!), loving this for winter | Hot Pink Button Down: Gap (old), similar, similar | Skinnies: American Eagle Denim X | Necklace: House of Harlow | Watch: Michael Kors | Sunnies: Karen Walker, less expensive version | Bag: Michael Kors (old), similar, similar | Booties: BCBGeneration via TJMaxx, similar, LOVE these

Can you believe another week has come and gone? Time is certainly flying as we get closer and closer to the holidays. Isn’t it? Happy Friday!

Girl About Town

My hubby races bikes every Saturday in the Fall. And after his race, we usually like to find a new place somewhere in the city to either grab a beer or a coffee and a treat to celebrate. It’s nothing too big or significant, but one of my favorite weekend traditions none-the-less. And because our Saturday’s are so laid back, my outfits tend follow suit and are generally some variation of the below. Jeans, puffy vest, booties, repeat…

Instagram Filter: Amaro

Tee: H&M (can’t find it online, but check in store!), also loving this and this | Vest: JCrew (my new fave and it’s on sale!) | Skinnies: American Eagle Denim X (obsessed) | Necklace: Tiffany | Sunnies: Target (old), similar | Bag: Marc Jacobs | Booties: Lucky Brand (last year) this year’s version, similar, similar

Hope you are all having a wonderful week. Thank you SO much for stopping by!

I can’t stop wearing hats this Fall. They might just be my favorite trend. And swingy, comfy sweaters? Another closet staple. So if you are looking to update your wardrobe this season, I highly recommend considering a new floppy hat and a comfy, cozy sweater (or two) in a rich jewel tone.

Instagram Filter: Mayfair

LIPS: Rebel by MAC (looks amazing on everyone-trust me!)

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Happy Monday!!!
