Well hello there, Friday! And hello there, sweet readers! I am so glad to be back with another outfit post for you guys today! My apologies for the radio silence, but I was traveling all week for work, and it poured rain all last weekend, so I fell a little behind with my outfit photos. But the good news is I’m back, AND it’s the end of another work week! So what better way to kick off the first weekend of the glorious month of October than by showcasing my favorite buffalo plaid shirt and destroyed black skinnies!

Hope you all had a wonderful week! Happy weekend, and happy October!

Black and White

On September 15, 2014September 14, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love the black and white trend this season. And because black is such a staple (and something I know all of you already own in your own personal wardrobes), this should be an easy trend for anyone to get in on this season without necessarily having to pick up anything new. And while black and white is a relatively safe trend to try, bordering on the more serious and sophisticated side of style, remember that it’s okay to have a little fun with it and think outside of the box too-like mixing graphic prints and stripes together.

On a side note, can you believe all of the gorgeous sunflowers? They are out in full bloom right now in Utah and I am loving every second of it! Hope you all had a great weekend. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Mellow Yellow

On July 18, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

As promised, I wanted to show you all my fave JCrew dress without the vest (see the post of it with the vest here), for a little more dressed up version of this look. Also, it should be noted that I am really loving neon yellow right now. In fact, it’s kind of to the point where I feel like I just might need an intervention. To me, neon yellow is just like sunshine, only kicked up a notch. But I want to know what you guys think! Are you loving this color as much as I am this summer? And which look do you prefer? With or without the vest?

Wishing you all a WONDERFUL weekend!

Versatility

I’m way into rompers right now. I don’t know what it is, but I keep gravitating towards them over dresses in my closet this summer. I think because they are actually shorts, they can have a slightly more casual feel which makes them seemingly appropriate for just about any occasion-from a backyard BBQ to date night. BUT, rompers are also super easy to glam up. Just add a big floppy sun hat, statement heels, and an oversized pair of sunnies-and bam! Instant glam! And if I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a million times-versatile pieces (like rompers!) are the key to a well-rounded wardrobe!

Hope your week is off to a fantastic start!

Thank you so much for swinging by!

Denim on Denim

On July 8, 2014July 7, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I’m always a little hesitant to wear two denim pieces together. It probably stems from growing up in Montana and not wanting to be caught in the dreaded “Canadian Tuxedo” (or as I am sure they call it, the “Montana Tuxedo”). But I have found that if your two denims differ enough, then wearing denim on denim is perfectly acceptable, and even quite stylish given the current trend! So take it from me and don’t be afraid to rock your denim pieces together-just make sure you have some contrast!

Derby Style

On May 5, 2014May 5, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas3 Comments

Even though I was born and raised out west, I did live in the south for a few years when I pursued a country music career and attended college at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. And let me just say, my years in the Music City were some of the best of my life. There is just something about the South that is so near and dear to me. What can I say? I’m a country girl at heart. And because I especially love all of the incredible traditions that come from the South, J and I decided to throw a Derby party this year. I have always wanted to host one, but haven’t had the chance since I moved to Utah. But this year, it was the perfect excuse to get extra dressed up, enjoy the gorgeous weather, drink cocktails in the afternoon, and celebrate my birthday (a few days early) with all of our favorite people! It was a great time had by all, and served as the perfect reminder to wear big, floppy hats more often!

Dress: Lulu’s (pink is sold out, but it is available in blue, floral, and yellow)

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend! And don’t forget, today is the last day to take advantage of Macy’s big Friends and Family sale (think 25% off of just about everything). Go here to see my top picks!

Thanks so much for stopping by and happy shopping!

Red Pop

Listen up ladies, red isn’t just for the holiday season anymore! Paired with the right color combinations (think neutrals!!), red is a color we should be wearing all. year. long. And while I typically tend to shy away from reds during the warmer months (as I’m sure we all tend to do), paired back to nudes and light wash denim, red really is the perfect pop of color for Spring!

Instagram Filter: Lo-Fi

Red Blazer: Forever21 (old), similar, similar, similar, similar

Cami: Express (best cami ever AND it’s reversible!!), similar

Boyfriend Jeans: Gap, similar, LOVING these

Necklace: Stella & Dot

Watch: Michael Kors via Nordstrom Rack

Ring: House of Harlow, smaller size (both come in fun colors!)

Sunnies: Karen Walker

Bag: Michael Kors Selma (Spring 2013 collection), Spring 2014 version (on sale!), LOVING this studded bag

Pumps: Ivanka Trump, also here, craving these and these

Lips: YSL #1

Also, can we just talk for a second about how gorgeous the blooms are on the tree behind me in these photos? It feels like our entire yard just blossomed overnight. Oh how I love the Spring season!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Thank you for stopping by!

Same Same

Leopard on leopard. What do y’all think? Yay or nay? I think yay. I am obviously a huge fan of print mixing, but typically gravitate towards pairing different patterns together (florals and stripes, stripes and leopard, polka dots and stripes, etc.). And while I believe it’s perfectly acceptable to mix two of the same print together, it definitely works best if you follow a couple of rules. The first is that the patterns are in the same or a complimentary color palette. And the second is that the size of the two different prints are contrasting. Pretty easy, don’t you think?

Happy Friday, dolls! Thought I would leave you today with a few things that I am hoping to add to my Spring wardrobe. And the best part? Everything is under $100 (except the tote). I don’t know about you all, but I think my spring fever has officially set in!

Happy Friday, dolls! I wanted to take today to share one last look from our vacation to Nicaragua with all of you. And while this was an outfit that I randomly threw together during our trip, it definitely consists of several of my favorite things: mirrored Ray-bans, a big floppy sun hat, and a fun graphic tee. Perfect for a sunny day in my favorite beach town…
