The Perfect White T-Shirt

On September 25, 2015September 24, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

I love to dress up and try different looks for the blog. But at the end of the day, I am a t-shirt and jeans kind of a girl. And let me tell you, I have been hunting for the perfect white long-sleeve t-shirt for ages. But it seems all of the ones that I try are too see-through, the fit isn’t quite right, or they shrink like crazy and don’t last. So I am happy to finally report that I have officially found the perfect white t-shirt. The fit is fantastic, it isn’t see-through at all, and washes up perfectly. Plus the fabrication is so lovely, I know it was worth the price and will last me for years to come. So if you too have been on the hunt for the perfect white tee, then ladies, this post is for you!

Happy Friday, ya filthy animals! 🙂 🙂

P.S. How cute is my little buddy in today’s post? Normally she is totally camera shy, but apparently she likes my white tee so much, she wanted to be in the pictures too!

Work It

I don’t often post many wear-to-work inspired ideas on the blog. You guys always seem to respond really well to my more casual and laid back looks, so that is what I tend to stick with sharing. But because dressing for work is such an important part of our wardrobes, I want to start infusing a few more of these posts into the mix.

That said, when I am looking for things to wear to work, I like to try and invest in classic and timeless pieces that I can style a lot of different ways. I also travel a ton for my job, so I also tend to gravitate towards fabrics that pack well and wear well on an airplane or in a car. And of course for me, even though I have to dress “business casual” the majority of the time, comfort still plays an important role in my workday wardrobe choices.

So if you are looking to improve or expand upon your current 9-5 wardrobe, but aren’t sure where to start, two staples that I recommend for every working girl? A go-to black dress, and a classic camel coat.

And don’t forget! If you want to try my Prada Sunnies (or any of my favorite Karen Walker sunglasses for that matter!) you can rent them for ONE MONTH FREE! After that it’s $19 a month for as many or as a few months as you would like! So if you are like me and love designer sunnies, but hate the crazy price tag, this is definitely the way to go.

Casual Friday

I love a good striped tee. Particularly when they are super soft and a little longer in the back than in the front. And my white jeans? Still going strong this fall season. In fact, I love this look for Fall so much, that this type of uniform will definitely be on repeat. I will just have to change out my heels for booties when the temps start to drop!

On a serious note, I also wanted to just take a minute and acknowledge today, September 11th. I still remember so vividly where I was and exactly what I was doing on this day 14 years ago. I remember watching towers fall while my roommates and I cried and clung to each other in our tiny little dorm room. I remember frantically trying to call friends who lived in in NYC to make sure they were ok. I remember how drastically things changed in those moments and how in the blink of an eye, things would never be the same. But most importantly, I remember those who lost their lives, the heroes, the first responders, the children who have grown up without with fathers and mothers. Every soul lost that day was so precious and taken from us much too soon. So even though life marches on, today will be a day full of reflection for me, as I know it will be for many others across this great country and around the world.

Hold tight to your loved ones, and never, ever forget.

Love you guys.

Black and White

It doesn’t matter the season, or what’s on trend for the year. Black and white is always one of my very favorite combinations. Especially when paired with a bright lip for a little pop of color. Not only is it a timeless combo, but a look everyone can wear.

So, when I was scheduling blog posts this week, I didn’t realize that I was posting the same jacket in two different colors in back to back posts! Seriously people, that is HOW GOOD this jacket is. I literally wear it with everything. So do yourself a favor and treat yourself to one. You can thank me later! 🙂

Happy Hump Day!

You guys! Can you believe it’s September already? Holy cow! Where the heck did summer go? And while there is part of me that always hates to leave the summer months behind, I certainly do love Fall. Especially Fall fashion! And if you know me in real life, or have followed my blog for very long, then you know my love for military vests during the Fall season. And this year they are back again and bigger than ever! So if you didn’t snag one last year, you can shop my picks below (all under $100!)! A vest is DEFINITELY something versatile that every gal should have in her closet this season!

If you follow me on Instagram (and if you don’t, you should follow me @alldolledupblog), then you might have seen my post about these gorgeous Prada sunnies. I LOVE designer sunglasses, but hate the expensive price tag. So when I discovered Ditto, I knew it was perfect for me. You can rent a pair of DESIGNER sunglasses (think Prada, Karen Walker, Ray-Ban, Illesteva, etc.) for just $19/month (they even have prescription!)! You also get free shipping and can change out your sunnies as often as you want. How amazing is that??? And even better??? Try it for one month FREE by using code: ALLDOLLEDUP at check out! ENJOY!
