Denim Jacket

On May 18, 2015May 18, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas3 Comments

If you all have followed my blog (or Instagram: alldolledupblog) for any amount of time, then you probably know what a huge fan I am of my JCrew denim jacket. So when they released it in a lighter colorway this year, I knew it would be a great investment for my wardrobe. And it has proven to be just that. So if you are in the market for a denim jacket, or teetering on a decision as to whether or not to add one to your closet, then be sure to check out my tried-and-true favorite. Not only is it cute and stylish, but it’s a classic piece for a fantastic price that you will have in your wardrobe for years to come…

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

Rehearsal Dinner

On January 22, 2015January 21, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas, Uncategorized4 Comments

If you follow me on Insta (and if you don’t, you should!), then you know I was in Austin, Texas last week celebrating the wedding of one of my best college friends. It was an absolutely fabulous weekend and I could not be happier for my sweet friend and her new hubby. And despite my best intentions to take blog photos of what I wore to all of the festivities, I was having too much fun to pause and break out the DSLR.

So even though I’m back home in the SLC, I wanted to recreate for y’all what I wore to the rehearsal dinner. I haven’t been to many weddings in the winter, and it made me realize that they can be a little tricky to dress for. Even though Austin is fairly mild, I wasn’t sure it would be warm enough for a sleeveless dress-and I was right. So instead, I opted to pair one of my favorite skirts from this past summer, with one of my favorite tops from the holiday season. And I have to say that I really love the way it turned out. Not only is navy one of my favorite colors for a formal event, but mixing it back to gold and leopard is one of my very favorite combinations of all time-a total no-brainer for such a special event!

Top: Express (on sale for under $20!!) | Skirt: JCrew (loving the citrus color AND it’s on sale for under $40!) | Necklaces: Stella & Dot, JCrew (this isn’t quite the same, but it’s really close, and on sale!!) | Rings: Stella & Dot, Rocksbox | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Clutch: Michael Kors (old), new version | Booties: INC (best booties EVER and they are on sale!!!)

I hope you guys are having a great week. I don’t know about you, but I couldn’t be happier that the end is in sight. I’m definitely ready for the weekend already!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Winter Pastels

On January 5, 2015January 4, 2015 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I am loving the pastel trend this winter. To me, there is just something so soft and beautiful about wearing colors like lilac during the crisp, white, winter months. And not only are pastels an unexpected (and fun!) choice right now, but they are a nice transition from the bold holiday colors of red and green (not that you can’t still wear those colors now too!!)…

Can you believe the holiday season has come and gone and it’s January again already? To be honest, I’m kind of nursing the post holiday blues. And the fact that it’s Monday certainly doesn’t help matters, does it?

But regardless, cheers to the new year and all of the new adventures it holds! And don’t forget to CLICK HERE to enter for your chance to win a $50 gift card to Bohme Boutique! Winner will be announced on Friday!

Layers

We have had such a mild fall here in the SLC, that I almost forgot how brutal it can be to have to take blog photos during the winter months. But boy, was I sure reminded in a hurry when we shot these photos on Saturday. I guess it’s time to break out the winter coats, and pile on the layers. And speaking of layers? Surplus vests over plaid and flannels is still a combo at the top of my list this season…

Instagram Filter: Hudson

Flannel: Express (the shoulders have sequins!! I LOVE this shirt!), non-sequin version here | Vest: H&M (old), similar | Necklace: Stella & Dot (old), similar, LOVE this one | Skinnies: American Eagle Denim X, similar | Sunnies: Karen Walker, less expensive version | Clutch: Michael Kors | Booties: INC (most comfortable and cutest booties EVER!)

Hope your week is off to a great start and more importantly, that you are staying warm during this arctic front!!! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr….

Montana Roots

I love a great camo print. And I can’t help but wonder if it stems from my Montana roots. But regardless of where my fondness for the print comes from, I am definitely happy that camo is still an important print this Fall season!

Put A Vest On It

On August 25, 2014August 24, 2014 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I am never, ever ready for summer to end, but I am always ready for fall fashion! And even though the temps are still relatively warm, fall is definitely starting to creep into the air here in Utah and I can feel myself starting to gravitate towards darker colors, neutrals, denim, leopard, light jackets, and vests (of course)! All of which are super easy key items to start to transition those summer outfits into fall! So if you are ready to get your fall wardrobe going but aren’t quite sure how, try pairing a vest back to your favorite tank and denim…

Instagram Filter: Lo-Fi

Don’t forget! Today is the last day to enter the Marrakech ring giveaway with KiraKira (click here to enter)! Contest ends at midnight tonight and winner will be announced tomorrow on the blog!

Secret Garden

On August 4, 2014August 4, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

Well, despite my best intentions last week, I just could not get it together to get any content up on the blog. I thought I would have plenty of time to snap and share outfit photos, but we were so busy boating, rafting, fishing, hitting Glacier National Park, and enjoying family and friends, that there just wasn’t a lot of downtime. So my apologies for the lack of posts!

Fortunately, J and I did manage to snap off a few outfit shots on the last night of our trip at my mom and dad’s house-including these photos taken in my mom’s GORGEOUS garden. My parent’s yard is stunning and I wish I could take blog photos there all the time! In fact, it was in this very garden that I took some of my senior pictures! Crazy to think of how long ago that was!

Instagram Filter: X-Pro

Tank: JCrew (on sale for under $15!-LOVE these tanks) | Skirt: JCrew (on sale for UNDER $25 with code -this skirt is awesome!), Factory Version (also on sale!) | Necklace: Raven and Lily (be sure to check them out-fantastic fair trade empowering women!) | Cuff: Raven and Lily (runs large) | Ring: KiraKira | Clutch: Clare Vivier | Sunnies: Karen Walker, similar version (under $10!) | Heels: INC (DYING over the new leopard version!)

Hope you all had a wonderful week last week and a wonderful weekend. Can you believe it’s August already? I know I can’t. Too bad there isn’t a way to just slow down summer a bit. I hate that it goes so fast!

Happy Monday!

Romper Time

On June 9, 2014June 8, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love rompers. Like, seriously love them. They are so fun, flirty, and such a nice change up from dresses and shorts in the summer. And not only that, but I love the variety that this sweet, ditsy print adds to my wardrobe. You know what they say, variety is the spice of life, right? And in my opinion, it’s also the key to a well-rounded wardrobe! Plus there is just something about rompers that makes me feel like I should be heading to an amazing music festival, or some super cool boho-chic event.
