I Heart Pink

On December 20, 2013December 20, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I’ve noticed that I’ve been sharing quite a few outfits on the blog as of late that have a lot of red in them. ‘Tis the season, I suppose. But today I wanted to share with you a look that is still entirely appropriate for the season, even though the primary focus isn’t red. In my opinion, shades of frosty pinks and blues work just as well for the holiday season as any red ensemble…

Happy, happy Friday to you all! Thank you so much for stopping by the blog. Enjoy your weekend!

RED Top, RED Cup

I am all about the color red this season. From shoes, to bold red lips, to fancy, festive tops-even my holiday decor is full of pops of red. To me, red is the most wonderful color this time of year. And so today, I bring to you a post complete with not only a red outfit, but also my favorite drink ware for entertaining this holiday season (make sure you scroll past the outfit pics for Red Cup Living details and an ah-mazing holiday deal you don’t want to miss!)…

J and A After Dark

On December 4, 2013December 3, 2013 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit Ideas3 Comments

This fall, J and I decided that we wanted some updated pictures of the two of us. And so, we enlisted the help of our super talented friend Sam Kanzler of Kanzler Foto. She and her hubby had taken some photos of J and me a few years ago, and not only were they amazing, but the four of us became fast friends. Besides being incredibly talented, Mike and Sam are two of the most generous, kindest, and funniest people that I know. They are just those kind of friends you feel especially blessed to have found in life. And with that, here is a little preview of a few of my favorites from our photo shoot “Justin and Abby After Dark”…

I hope you are all having a wonderful week and staying warm! We finally had our first big snow storm here in the SLC-we got about a foot at our house! I guess it’s safe to say it really is beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Boots

On December 3, 2013December 3, 2013 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I have a slight obsession with cognac boots-or more specifically these cognac boots. I wear them more than any other piece of footwear that I own and I am feeling pretty bummed that they are all but about worn out. And because I knew this would most likely be their last season, I have been on the hunt for a replacement pair all fall. And surprisingly I have had absolutely zero luck. Maybe I’ve set my standards too high, but how hard could it possibly be to find a pair in the right shade of cognac with a low heel (wedge or stacked), wide enough to fit my calves, that go with everything, and are neither too dressy, nor too casual? Apparently it’s nearly impossible. Looks like a trip to the cobbler is in my very near future-I need all the help I can get prolonging the life of these babies…

I am obsessed with plaid. It’s all I want to wear, all day everyday. From button downs, to skirts, to pants, to jackets, plaid is at the forefront of my very favorite fall fashion trends. And one way to wear it that I am especially loving? Back to leather and lace. Duh!

Grounded

On November 13, 2013November 12, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

You might have guessed pink, but yellow is actually my very favorite color. And one of my favorite ways to wear it as of late is in a neon hue back to black with a pop of leopard. And while I believe it’s perfectly acceptable to wear neon and bright colors all year round (and do!) during the colder months, it is good to ground them with darker colors making your brights feel more appropriate for the season…

I am so excited to be teaming up with one of my very favorite Etsy shops today, Basil The Cat! I first discovered this great shop when I was on the hunt for a bubble necklace a couple of years ago. And I discovered that Rachel not only made them by hand with a beautiful vintage feel (see this post-her’s is the turquoise version), but she also created all sorts of gorgeous one-of-a-kind vintage pieces. Swoon worthy, really. And let me tell you, I have a been a huge fan of hers ever since. So when she contacted me recently to not only give away one of the gorgeous Elephant lockets that I am wearing below, but also offer a 20% discount to All Dolled Up readers for the ENTIRE month of November, how could I say no? And so today my friends, is your lucky day! See below for entry details!

Blush

I am all about the sudden resurgence of pink this season. It is such an unexpected shade for Fall, which is perhaps why I am especially loving it. Well that, and the fact that pink is one of my very favorite colors (if you didn’t already know)…

Dream Coat

On November 4, 2013November 3, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas3 Comments

We had our first snow here in the SLC this weekend. It was a beautiful day on Saturday at almost 70 degrees, but the wind was whipping through the valley all day which usually signals an impending storm front. So without even having to check the weather, I knew come Sunday morning, the chance of waking up to snow was pretty good. And while I must say I have mixed feelings about it, one thing I was most definitely excited about was getting out my winter coats. And speaking of coats, if there is one trend that every gal should jump on this season, it’s adding a colorful jacket or coat to your winter wardrobe.

Happy Halloween!

On October 31, 2013October 30, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

In honor of Halloween, today’s outfit post is brought to you by the colors orange and black. And while it might seem like a taboo combo, or at the very least a little tough to wrangle, I promise you can wear black and orange together without looking like you are dressing up for Halloween-or in support of your favorite team. The best bet? Stay away from a true orange. Instead, opt for shades of mandarin (like my outfit below), corals, or neon. All look fantastic with black and can be worn together anytime of the year…
