Two In One

On April 24, 2013April 24, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas, UncategorizedLeave a comment

Today I want to share one of my favorite tricks with you. And that my friends, is wearing a dress as a skirt. It’s such a simple and fun way to double your wardrobe by creating multiple looks with one item-plus it’s also a great money saver. I chose to wear a knotted t-shirt over my dress in this post, but button downs are also an easy option for layering (see here)…

I am LOVING the cap toe trend this season. And this particular nude and silver pair is definitely one of my favorites. Not only are they are a great staple that goes with just about everything, but the pop of metallic takes them up a notch making them not just a great neutral, but fun too! And fun is definitely important when it comes to shoes!!!

Happy hump day!

Leather and Lace

On April 17, 2013April 16, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

There is just something about the combination of leather and lace. It’s tough, yet sweet, rock and roll, yet sophisticated. Really, I could go on. And while it’s a pairing that works for a multitude of occasions, I have to say it feels pretty darn perfect for a cool, rainy day…

Arm Candy

On April 11, 2013April 10, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas, Uncategorized1 Comment

I love me some arm candy, or an arm party, or a little wrist bling-whatever you want to call it. It’s such a fun (and affordable!) way to change up an outfit. And while of course anything goes, I am definitely finding myself gravitating towards the mix of girly and edgy. Specifically, bows and spikes paired together in perfect harmony. I mean really, where else can you get away with a combination like that?

April Showers

And with the 1st of April, came the rain. Thank goodness we have the beautiful blooms of May waiting for us on the other side. But in the interim, a fun umbrella just might be a good thing to add to your wardrobe. Better to be soggy and stylish than just plain soggy.

Instagram Filter: Sierra

When it’s rainy out, the very last thing I want to do is throw on a fancy outfit. So in addition to a fun umbrella, cute accessories are another simple way to brighten things up a bit. An easy way to chase those rainy day blues? Don’t mind if I do.

Tassel Ho!

On March 27, 2013March 26, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas3 Comments

I love a good tassel necklace. Maybe it’s because I’m from Montana and they remind me of a (fashionable) bolo tie, or maybe it’s just because they feel so new and different this season. Either way, a tassel necklace is an easy piece for anyone to wear and something simple (and inexpensive) everyone should add to their wardrobe this spring!

Editing these photos only served to make me acutely aware of how anxious I am for the arrival of spring and summer. Not only am I looking forward to warmer temps, sunshine, longer days, and fewer layers, but a little color on my pale skin definitely won’t hurt either!

Happy Wednesday!

My Vest Accessory

If you follow this blog, then you know how obsessed I have been with my denim vest over the span of the last year. And to be totally honest, I don’t see my love affair with denim vests dying out anytime soon. But when I was in H&M recently and spotted this long, lean, surplus vest complete with a little sparkle, I knew my favorite denim version might finally have met its match.

If you haven’t caved and tried the vest trend yet, I highly recommend giving one a whirl. Not only are they fresh and fun, but they a perfect accessory to change up your look without breaking the bank!

Happy Tuesday!

Monotone

Sometimes throwing together a monochromatic look is a welcome change from the usual. Plus, pairing two like colors is an easy concoction to create and a great way to change-up your look without investing in anything new…

I don’t know about you, but I am so happy it’s the middle of the week already. I am practically counting down the days until the weekend-the end is in sight!

I Heart SF

I spent the better half of last week attending meetings in San Francisco. It is my favorite city in the country, so it was a welcome get away. Plus, I have to admit that it was pretty fantastic to escape the snow and cold for a few days and enjoy a little milder weather…

Hope you all had a lovely weekend. Thank you so much for reading!

As much as I love to wear vibrant hues and accessorize with pops of color, sometimes I crave a more neutral palette. At the end of the day, sometimes it’s just hard to beat layers of monochromatic tones finished off with cognac accessories and gold jewelry…

Today I am headed off to San Francisco for a little business trip followed by a weekend of fun in my favorite city by the bay (complete with a quick trip to wine country)! I lived in SF for 4 months on an extended work assignment last year. so as you can imagine, I am pretty darn excited to get back!

Color of the Year

My birthday falls in the month of May, which of course means that emeralds are my birth stone. And emerald green also happens to be one of my favorite colors. So you can imagine how thrilled I was when emerald was announced as the color of 2013. It’s a tough color not to love and I can’t wait to add more pieces in this rich, gorgeous hue to my wardrobe…

I love mixing prints, but I also love mixing different patterns. And this outfit is a great example of both-with all of the pieces working together to create a look that is not only eclectic, but perfect for a vast array of activities and events. Can’t beat that!
