It Dress

On May 24, 2016May 24, 2016 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

Maxi dresses are always a favorite silhouette of mine during the summer months. But the dress in today’s post just might be my favorite maxi ever. I absolutely adore the unique cut, the fact that it’s striped, and you’ll never believe it, but it’s fantastic quality and less than $25. Trust me sweet friends, if you are going to add a new maxi to your wardrobe this summer, this is the one!

Happy Tuesday, loves!

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!

xoxo,

Abby

Favorites

Not all outfits are created equal. There are always some that I love more than others, and this is definitely one of those. Perhaps it’s because this dress reminds me of something that I wore when I auditioned for collegiate music programs back in the day, or perhaps it’s because it incorporates so many of my favorite things (surplus vest, yellow pumps, Panama hat, dress with pockets, etc.) into one look. Whatever the reason, this is just one of those outfits that really feels like “me”, and one I can’t wait to wear again!
Dress: H&M (couldn’t find the printed version online, but it’s a recent in-store purchase), plain black version, sleeveless version, also love this and this

Vest: Shein

Hat: Macy’s , spring/summer version

Necklace: BaubleBar

Cuff: Stella & Dot

Sunnies: Prada c/o Ditto (rent them for just $24/month and get your first month FREE with code: ALLDOLLEDUPBLOG at checkout!)

Bag: Tory Burch

Pumps: Banana Republic (on MAJOR sale!), also love these

HAPPY, HAPPY FRIDAY friends! I am FINALLY starting to feel better, so hoping to be able to enjoy the weekend and not spend it in bed like I did last weekend. Hope y’all have something fun planned!

Nude

On February 10, 2016February 10, 2016 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

Nude and neutral tones are totally my jam this season. And this blazer? It is so cute with the peplum back. I seriously can’t say enough good things about it. Because if there is one thing I really love, it’s a great fitting, unique jacket with a price tag that doesn’t break the bank (it also comes in black and is only $51!). Blazer: Lookbook Store c/o (also comes in black!) | Sequin Top: JCrew (on sale!) | Skinnies: AG Farrah | Sunnies: Karen Walker c/o Ditto (try them for one month free with code: ALLDOLLEDUPBLOG at checkout!) | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff | Pumps: Jeffrey Campbell (sold out), almost identical, also love these

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Current Beauty Faves

On February 3, 2016February 2, 2016 By all dolled upIn Favorite Products1 Comment

Happy hump day, lovelies! I wanted to change things up a bit today and do something that I haven’t done in a while-share my current beauty faves! Typically I’m pretty loyal to my tried-and-true products, but over the last couple of months, I’ve stumbled on a few new things that I’ve added to my routine. So I wanted to take a minute and share both the old and the new with all of you. Details, and why I love these products can be found below!

Clockwise from top:

Moroccan Oil: I am obsessed with this stuff. I color my hair and have extensions and it does wonders for both. Since I started using this regularly about a year and a half ago, I have seen a huge change in my hair. Plus, if you live in a dry climate like I do, it will help with static and dryness during the harsh winter months!
Karen Walker Sunglasses c/o Ditto: I am obsessed with sunglasses, so I have absolutely fallen in love with a company called Ditto. They let you rent any designer sunglasses of your choice for just $24/month. There is no contract and you can change them out as often as you want (with free shipping!). Plus, if you use code: ALLDOLLEDUPBLOG at checkout, you can try one month for free!
Urban Decay Naked Smokey Eye Palette: I’ve been super loyal to the original Naked palette for years, but I finally bit the bullet and picked this smokey one up. And I am SO glad that I did! It has great colors in it that I don’t already have, and it’s helped me to be more bold when experimenting with date night looks. But it’s not just for dressing up either! There are amazing neutrals for daytime as well. It really is just a great all around palette and definitely worth every penny!
Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Foundation: this is a new product for me. I have been wearing Estee Lauder Double Wear Light pretty religiously for over a year. I love the matte finish, that it stays in place all day, and I never get oily. BUT, this winter has been so dry, it started to make my skin look dry and cakey. On the recommendation of another blogger (Mckenna Bleu-check out her blog here), I tried this one. And you know what? I LOVE it! It stays in place all day, I never get oily, and it doesn’t leave my skin looking dry like the Estee Lauder. And even better? It doesn’t feel like I’m wearing anything on my face. This is probably my favorite out of all of the new products I’ve tried! It’s also free of parabens, sulfates, phthalates! I use this powder to set it.
Benefit High Beam Highlighter: I was having dinner with a good friend a few months ago and I couldn’t stop staring at her skin. It looked so radiant! And when I asked her what her secret was, Benefit High Beam was it. So obviously, I immediately purchased some for myself. And the verdict? I am obsessed with it! It’s super easy to apply, gives the most beautifuly radiant finish, and looks great blended using this.
Benefit Roller Lash Mascara: I am a tried and true fan of Bare Minerals Lash Domination. But I’ve found that mixing Lash Domination with this mascara gives me both incredible length and volume. Plus, if I finish it off with a little Younique 3D Mascara for special occasions, it looks like I’m wearing false eyelashes! So good!
Rodan + Fields Sunless Tanner: this stuff is the bomb.com. Not only is it super easy to apply (you can even put it on your face!), but it gives you a gorgeous, gradual tan that you can build as much as you want to. When I went to the Bahamas with friends a couple of weeks ago, the weather was too cold to get any sun. But I used this stuff for a little color and everyone talked about what a nice, natural tan I had when I came back! ha! Plus, it doesn’t get streaky or blotchy around the wrists, ankles, or knees when you apply it or when it wears off. This is hands down the best sunless tanner I’ve ever tried.
Butter London Lippy Bloody Brilliant Lip Crayon: I am a gloss girl and most lipsticks can drive me nuts. But not these! The color is super vibrant, they wear really well, and are comfortable on the lips. Plus, the lid has a built in sharpener making it the perfect all in one! Ladybird (a fiery red/orange), Primrose Hill Picnic (the perfect bright pink), and Trout Pout (a great bright coral) are my go-to colors.

Let me know if you guys have any questions! Would love to hear if you use any of these products, or what your favorites are! I am always on the lookout to try new things!

Abby

Mellow Yellow

On February 2, 2016February 1, 2016 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

Contrary to popular belief, pink is my 2nd favorite color. In fact, it’s yellow that has always had my heart. So when I saw this coat, I knew it was perfect for me. Plus, there is nothing better than a candy colored coat to brighten up a dreary winter day. And for all of you out there who don’t like or can’t wear yellow, you’re in luck, because this also comes in pink, teal, black, and winter white. PLUS it’s on sale!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Abby

Special

I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again, shift coats are awesome. And this gorgeous black and white number is at the top of my list of all-time favorite things in my closet. Not only is it under $40, but the quality is fantastic and the fabric and print is so pretty, people literally stop me on the street to ask me where they can buy it. So if you’re looking for something beautiful and special to add to your wardrobe (that won’t break the bank!), do yourself a favor and pick this piece. Also, how fabulous will it look styled with a dress and strappy heels when the weather warms up? I can’t wait!

Shift Coat: Shein c/o (under $40!)

Tunic: Express

Skinnies: Paige

Necklace: Banana Republic

Clutch: Clare V.

Sunnies: Karen Walker (try them for one month free with code: ALLDOLLEDUPBLOG at checkout!)

Pumps: BCBG

Hope y’all are having a great week. Thank goodness we are halfway to the weekend!

If you have been following my blog for any amount of time now, then you probably know that I am obsessed with sunglasses. And you also probably know that I love a good deal. So with that said, I have always found myself in a bit of a conundrum when it comes to sunglasses-always wanting the latest designer pairs, but refusing to pay the high ticket price. ENTER: Ditto!

I have been able to test out so many different pairs of Prada, Karen Walkers, Ray-Bans, Dior’s, and even have my eye on a pair of Illesteva to try next! So if you are anything like me want to try the sunnies without the hefty price tag, then Ditto is definitely or you.

Wine Not?

On September 16, 2015September 16, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

J and I were in Sonoma this past weekend doing a little biking and wine tasting, and even though the temps were unusually hot, the leaves were changing colors and Fall was definitely in the air. So I of course, took full advantage of the opportunity and packed some cute plaid and my favorite booties. And I have to tell you guys, wearing dresses with booties is my very favorite kind of outfit right now. And if you are anything like me, it is the perfect transitional combination while the temps are still warm but you’re craving Fall fashion…

Dress: Maison Jules (so comfy and on sale for under $30!) | Bag: Tory Burch (my favorite bag ever-loving the red color this season!) | Necklace: Stella & Dot | Cuff: Stella Dot | Sunnies: Prada c/o Ditto (try them for free for a month, and for $19/month after that for as many months as you wish with code: ALLDOLLEDUP at checkout!) | Booties: Vince Camuto via TJMaxx, just bought these, and these are on my wishlist

I am sure you guys noticed a little site update today! lol I was repurchasing my domain name last night, and somehow deleted my previous format. Whoops! It is still a work in progress, but you guys will have to let me know what you think!

J and I are off again today and heading to Vegas for a bike race, a little pool action and a nice long weekend. I’m pretty sure between leisure and work travel, I have been living out of my suitcase (literally!) for the last 6 weeks. Kinda crazy, but pretty fun. Anyway, be sure to follow along on Insta and Snap to see more photos and video of our adventures!
