Bell Sleeves and Pirate Shirts

On March 16, 2017March 16, 2017 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

If you follow me over on Insta (@alldolledupblog), you might know how much I LOVE the bell sleeve trend. But I do have a confession. Every time I put one on, I can’t help but think of the Jerry Seinfeld episode with the pirate shirt. I’m probably totally aging myself here, but you guys know what I’m talking about, right? So I have to ask, does this trend make anyone else think of the same thing??? And more importantly, is this a trend that you guys are into this Spring? Leave a comment below-I’d love to know!

Since I haven’t blogged very much in such a long time, Chloe wanted to make sure she stopped by to say hello too.

Hope you guys are having a fab week!

xoxo,

Olde Stash Collaboration

On December 6, 2016December 5, 2016 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

A couple of months ago, I was approached to do a collaboration with a really cool brand called Olde Stash, out of my hometown in Kalispell, Montana. And because I am such a huge fan of this brand, and wanted to have the opportunity to share Olde Stash with all of you, of course I said yes! If you follow me on Instagram, you might remember me sharing a little teaser of my time in the studio partnering with the owner (and creative genius!) behind Olde Stash, to design my very own custom bag. And if you don’t remember, here’s a little refresher!

And one of the coolest things about this brand is that not only is my bag one-of-a-kind because I had a hand in the design process, but every bag that Olde Stash creates is also one-of-a kind. All materials are purchased in small batches, and each piece is not only made to order, but hand crafted in-house in Kalispell, Montana. And in addition to being totally gorgeous and unique, these bags are created using top of the line materials, including 3mm wool from Germany (the colors are all so beautiful and vibrant), and world-famous Horween leather, that has been tanned in Chicago for over 100 years.

And I have to tell you guys, I used to be a handbag buyer and designer for Sundance Catalog, and have traveled both domestically and abroad sourcing product, and I have never seen anything else like these bags in the marketplace. They are truly stunning and so unique. Whenever I carry this bag, I literally have people stop me on the street, in the airport, at work, wherever I may be, to ask me where they can find one. And so of course today, I couldn’t be more excited to share Olde Stash with you.

So be sure to stop by the Olde Stash website and take a look around. And if you want to place an order in time for Christmas (any of their pieces would make amazing gifts!), all orders must be placed by the end of the week. And please feel free to reach out if you need any more info or have any questions. Enjoy!

Girly

On March 21, 2016March 21, 2016 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I’m not the most quintessentially “girly” dresser. And while I love dresses and skirts, I typically tend to gravitate towards denim. However, when I spotted this cute skirt, tied with a bow, I knew it would be a great piece to add to my wardrobe. Especially since it’s under $30!

Plus how great are these Valentino dupes? Not only are they super comfy (and cute!), but they are under $70!

Top: ASOS (such a great basic to wear with skirts, and also looks amazing with flare jeans!)

Skirt: Shein c/o (love! such great quality; I’m wearing a medium for reference; also comes in black)

Necklace: BaubleBar (just ordered it in hot pink too!)

Clutch: Lany c/o (stay tuned for an upcoming giveaway!)

Sunnies: Karen Walker via Ditto (rent them for free for one month with code: ALLDOLLEDUP at checkout!)

Pumps: BCBG (SO comfy and come in tons of colors!)

Hope you all had a great weekend. Happy Monday!

French Kande

On February 24, 2016February 24, 2016 By all dolled upIn Favorite Products, Giveaway, Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I am a sentimental gal and love special pieces of jewelry that carry some sort of meaning. So when I discovered a company called French Kande, whose jewelry is both beautiful and meaningful, I knew that I wanted to share their unique pieces with all of you.

To give you a little background, French Kande jewelry is inspired by authentic French Medallions from the 1960’s that the owner of the company has collected from flea markets in Paris over the last 7 years. Each one has a different story and is handcast from the original medallion and plated in either brass or sterling silver in the French Kande studio in L.A..

The Medallion I am wearing in today’s post is a gorgeous compass medallion that was used a as promotional piece for a fine food retailer in France in the 1960’s called Sopad. They carried everything from fine wines to chocolates (perfect for me!).

So if you are looking to own a little piece of history, or add something incredibly unique and special (not to mention stunningly beautiful!) to your jewelry collection, then I would recommend checking out French Kande! And right now, just for All Dolled Up readers, they are offering a FREE pair of stud earring (cast from antique French buttons) with any $150 purchase. Just enter ALL DOLLED UP in the comments at checkout!

Medallion: French Kande c/o (enter code All Dolled Up in the comments at checkout for a free pair of stud earrings with a purchase of $150!)

Hope you are all having a fantastic week. I know I am sure feeling happy we are one day closer to the weekend!

Thanks for stopping by!

Creature Comforts

On February 9, 2016February 9, 2016 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I was just telling a girlfriend of mine last night that when I started blogging, it made me realize what a creature of habit I am. I tend to gravitate towards the same types of items and the same kinds of outfits. So being a blogger has been a great way to force myself out of my comfort zone and try new things. And today’s look is a great example of that. A couple of years ago, I never would have tried an outfit like this. And while it still wouldn’t be my go-to (like yesterday’s outfit!), I love pushing myself to try new trends and new looks. Afterall, that’s what makes fashion fun and exciting, right?

Hope y’all are having a great week!

xoxo,

Abby

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.

Be sure to scroll below for your chance to enter to win one of 2 gift cards to Touchstone Crystal!!

I am so excited to be teaming up with ModCloth today as a part of their Polyvore outfit challenge! If you are familiar with ModCloth, then you will know why I was so thrilled when they contacted me. And if you aren’t familiar with this fantastic online retailer, then run (don’t walk!) to their website. NOW! Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.

And with that, today I am bringing you my first challenge. And that was to style the beautiful Evening of Extravagance Dress. And I have to say, with Valentine’s day just around the corner, I couldn’t help but be inspired to pair it back to red and leopard. Awfully fitting, don’t you think?

You can shop my look through the links above, or create your own at ModCloth!

Happy Thursday Dolls!

American Eagle Part Three

On October 11, 2013October 11, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

Happy Friday everyone! And welcome to the third and final installment of my Bloggers Do It Better feature with American Eagle! This outfit was my personal favorite of the three. Which should come as no surprise, because as I’ve said time and time again on this blog, there is nothing I love more than mixing something sweet back to something a little more gritty-especially when there is a little (or a lot) of sparkle involved…

Thank you all so much for the amazing outpouring of love and support this week. Y’all sure know how to make a girl feel special. Wishing you all a fantastic weekend. Thanks so much for stopping by!!
