Floral

On March 10, 2017March 9, 2017 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

Well hello again, sweet friends. It certainly has been a while since I’ve posted on the blog. In case you missed it, I was in a bad car accident right after Christmas, and have been recovering from a pretty severe concussion for the last couple of months. To be honest, it’s been a rough road. I had absolutely no idea I’d be down and out for so long. And while I’m still not back to my normal self, I am finally starting to make some progress. Thank goodness!

And now that I’m feeling a little better, I couldn’t be more excited to be teaming up with one of my go-to brands, Cabi clothing, to show you some of my favorite pieces from their Spring 2017 line. If you follow me on Instagram, you know I’ve been on a floral kick lately. So when I saw this perfect pink floral tank in the Cabi line, it was the first things I ordered. And not only does it look great layered now, but it has a super cute neckline and I can’t wait to wear it during the summer months! Definitely a favorite piece in my wardrobe.

Wishing you guys a fun filled weekend!

Abby

Velvet Jumpsuit for NYE

On December 30, 2016December 29, 2016 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

I had good intentions of bringing you festive and sequin-filled NYE inspired posts all week. But unfortunately, things don’t always go as planned, and I was involved in a pretty major car accident on Tuesday morning. While my car was totaled, I was fortunate enough to walk away from the accident with only a concussion and minor injuries. And while I am grateful to be alright, it was also a good reminder of how precious life is.

And of course it’s got me thinking. As events like these often do. It’s so easy in this day and age to put together and present a perfectly curated life through social media. But I’m feeling led to share with you guys that my life is anything but perfect. And if I’m being totally honest, I can also tell you that 2016 has been the hardest, most challenging year of my life. And I’ve really been struggling this week to wrap my head around how it could possibly be ending with a serious accident on top of everything else. But rather than let myself get down and discouraged (which I’ve totally been doing), I’m reminding myself in times like these, that it’s important to take a step back, take inventory of the blessings you DO have in life, find the joy in the hurt, the laughter in the messiness, surround yourself with those who love you most, and thank God for His grace, protection, forgiveness, and unfailing love. That is after all, what this holiday season is all about, isn’t it?

In other (more fashion blog-worthy) news, how amazing would this green velvet jumpsuit be to wear to a NYE party (or any other party for that matter)? If I’m feeling well enough to make it out on NYE this year, this is definitely what I’ll be wearing. Fingers crossed!

Jumpsuit | Necklace | Sunnies | Clutch | Heels

Wishing you all a safe and happy New Year this weekend. And a huge thank you for your continued love and support, and for making this blog possible. Y’all have been such a bright spot in my life this past year and I am so appreciative!

Cheers to a better and brighter 2017!!

Leopard and Plaid

On October 8, 2015October 7, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

There is something about the Fall season that makes me want to print mix. And one of my all-time favorite combos to put together is leopard and plaid. So if you haven’t tried mixing these two prints yet, then I challenge you to test it out this Fall. In fact, I can tell you that this is a combo you are probably going to see me wear a lot of on the blog this season. So consider yourself warned!

Has this week felt like the longest week ever to anyone else but me? I can’t believe how slow the time is dragging! Thank goodness it’s finally Thursday!

Touchstone Crystal+Giveaway

On March 18, 2014March 18, 2014 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit Ideas1 Comment

Today I want to introduce you guys to a fabulous jewelry company called Touchstone Crystal. Now I know the name sounds a little out there (at least that’s what I thought when I first heard about it), but this product is seriously incredible! In fact, I first discovered it when I thought a girlfriend of mine was wearing diamond solitaire earrings, and when I asked her about them, she let me in on her little secret. Touchstone Crystal was created by the Swarovski group, and all of the jewelry in turn is made with genuine Swarovski crystals and zirconia (Swarovski Zirconia is the finest simulated diamond in the world). And do you know what that means? Not only is the jewelry absolutely gorgeous, and top notch quality, but it is also affordable! I picked up the beautiful statement ring I am wearing in the below photos and I can’t even being to convey how much I love it. And not only that, but with most pieces under $100, I can’t wait to add a few more things to my jewelry collection.

Raven + Lily

On January 14, 2014January 13, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I am pretty sure that yesterday was the first Monday that I haven’t shared a blog post since I launched All Dolled Up. And if you follow me on Instagram (and if you don’t, you should: alldolledupblog), then you know I have been in Boulder cheering on my hubby at Cyclorcross Nationals. And while we had a really fun weekend, horrible roads plus a sick husband on the drive home meant having to unexpectedly stay the night in a hotel in the middle-of-nowhere Wyoming. So my apologies for missing yesterday!

But now that I am back, I wanted to share with you an amazing company called Raven + Lily. I love to shop fair trade and have shared quite a few fair trade finds and companies on the blog in the past, and so I thought it was important to share the ah-mazingness of Raven + Lily with all of you. Raven + Lily is a company founded by two women who wanted to use fashion and ethical design as a “a platform to utilize those passions to alleviate poverty among women”. The necklace I am wearing in today’s post is a favorite of mine from their Ethiopian Collection and was created by HIV positive women from handmade beads made of melted bullet casings from previous war conflicts. Talk about a powerful statement necklace. You can read more about Raven + Lily here, and you can shop their incredibly gorgeous collection here, including designs from Ethiopia, Cambodia, and India. When we are so blessed to live in this great country, and live the lives that we do, I think it’s incredibly important to give back when we can and support companies that empower women around the globe…

Dream Coat

On November 4, 2013November 3, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas3 Comments

We had our first snow here in the SLC this weekend. It was a beautiful day on Saturday at almost 70 degrees, but the wind was whipping through the valley all day which usually signals an impending storm front. So without even having to check the weather, I knew come Sunday morning, the chance of waking up to snow was pretty good. And while I must say I have mixed feelings about it, one thing I was most definitely excited about was getting out my winter coats. And speaking of coats, if there is one trend that every gal should jump on this season, it’s adding a colorful jacket or coat to your winter wardrobe.

My Vest Accessory

On March 19, 2013March 18, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas, Uncategorized3 Comments

If you follow this blog, then you know how obsessed I have been with my denim vest over the span of the last year. And to be totally honest, I don’t see my love affair with denim vests dying out anytime soon. But when I was in H&M recently and spotted this long, lean, surplus vest complete with a little sparkle, I knew my favorite denim version might finally have met its match.

Instagram Filter: Rise

If you haven’t caved and tried the vest trend yet, I highly recommend giving one a whirl. Not only are they fresh and fun, but they a perfect accessory to change up your look without breaking the bank!

Happy Tuesday!
