Another Little Piece of My Heart

On October 24, 2013October 23, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas6 Comments

When I was singing in Nashville, one of my favorite songs to perform was Janis Joplin’s version of, you guessed it, Another Little Piece of my heart. It is one of my all-time favorite songs and she, one of my all-time favorite artists. And I’d like to think that perhaps it’s my love for classic music that drew me to this sweater, and not just a weakness for happy sweaters…

Happy, happy Thursday to you all! I don’t know about you, but this has felt like an especially long to me. Thank goodness the end is in sight!

On Repeat

On October 23, 2013October 22, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

If you were to run into me on a typical Saturday in the Fall, I would most likely be wearing something similar to today’s outfit. In my book, it’s tough to beat a staple chambray shirt (plaid is also often on repeat), my favorite skinnies, a vest for layering, and a pair of boots comfy enough for running errands or cheering my hubby on at a Cyclocross race. This is definitely my go-to fall look, and if I am being honest, it has been for the last couple of years. Not super exciting, I know. But sometimes practicality wins out over fashion…

P.S. Aren’t the Fall colors absolutely stunning here in Utah??? I can’t get over it.

I kind of feel like light colored denim has the same stigma as white after labor day. But this season it’s all about light denim-all year round. And while I have been all about wearing lighter washes with sweaters and button downs, for some reason, I was having a hard time coming up with ways to style my denim jacket. But thank goodness for Pinterest which inspired me to try it back to leopard. And I have to say, I am pretty sure this won’t be the last you’ll see of it this season!

Mad for Plaid

On October 21, 2013October 20, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

I love plaid. Which is lucky for me, because it’s a key trend this fall season. And while I am so excited for all of the different ways I have up my sleeve to style this beloved print, right now, I am loving it paired back to leather and chiffon. A slightly masculine spin on a pretty fall dress, if you will (click here to see how I styled this dress last year)…

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Ours seemed to go by in the blink of an eye. But I must say, I am absolutely in love with the gorgeous Fall weather we are having. Oh how I love the month of October!

Neutrals

I love fall fashion. And by love, I mean really love. There is just something so appealing to me about layering on sweaters, cute jackets, and lots of jewelry. And neutral colors? Forget about it. As much as I am a tried-and-true color girl, this time of year, army green and anything in a neutral color palette is what you’ll find me reaching for. Ok, well maybe with a little pop of color…

I hope you are all having a good week. I have been on the road for work, but head home tonight and can’t wait to see my little family! And on top of that, it’s almost the weekend. Hallelujah!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Shifting

On October 15, 2013October 14, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I’m not ready to give up my dresses just yet-nor am I ready to break out the tights just yet either. So I’ve found that the best way to extend the life of my favorite dresses into the Fall season is with a little layering. And I am absolutely loving the look of a casual chambray shirt back to a more dressed up shift dress. For me, it’s the perfect alternative to a basic cardigan…

I hope you all are having a fantastic week. I am hitting the road again for work today, which always makes things a little hectic in my life. But be sure to stop by again tomorrow for another new outfit post!

Leopard Kicks

On September 30, 2013September 29, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

It’s no secret that I love leopard. So I couldn’t be more excited that leopard is really in this season. And I feel pretty strongly that one must-have-item every gal should add to her closet this Fall is a pair of leopard shoes. So whether you pick pumps, wedges, flats, or boots, just be sure to find your perfect leopard pair to help take your style up a notch this Fall!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! It certainly felt like fall here, but it was lovely. I am heading to my Alma mater this Thursday to celebrate Homecoming and my 10 year reunion-and I am so excited that I can hardly stand it. I am sure it will make this week go by extra slow (of course!).

Gold Standard

On September 25, 2013September 24, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas4 Comments

I love the golden color of this skirt, the beautiful pleated material, and the hi-low cut. It is the embodiment of everything I love in a skirt. And even better than that, it’s just one of those pieces that every time I wear it, I am constantly being stopped and asked about it-which of course makes me feel kind of glamorous. Don’t you just love pieces that make you feel good like that? To me that is the whole point of fashion. A tool for us to use to express ourselves and build our confidence!

Back To Basics

On September 24, 2013September 23, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

Not only is Fall officially here, but it is also officially in the air. And the first thing I seem to find myself reaching for these days is my favorite chambray shirt. Paired with fun accessories, it’s a comfy, chic way to kick off the season and ease yourself out of those easy, breezy summer clothes…

Leopard

Leopard makes everything better. Well not really, but it does make just about every outfit better. So if you are looking for a quick and easy way to take an otherwise simple outfit up a notch, then try adding a leopard belt, purse, scarf, or even a pair of leopard shoes. And I promise you, it will do just the trick…
