Shootie

On November 6, 2013November 5, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love shoes-and I am talking love. And while many might guess that my love affair with footwear started when I began my career as a Footwear Buyer and Developer for Sundance Catalog, I would actually be more inclined to say that it began when I was a little tiny girl and insisted that if I had to wear saddle shoes, then they had to be the pink and white ones and not the black and white version that my mom wanted to buy me for school. And much like my saddle shoes of old, when I saw these Report Signature shoes in a magazine a few weeks ago, I knew I had to track them down. And boy am I glad that I did. Because not only are they chic and amazingly comfortable (not to mention versatile), but they are the perfect hybrid between a pump and bootie-which really couldn’t be any more perfect for the season…

I am in Montana this week for work braving the cold. And while I always love coming back to my home state, sometimes I forget how soft I’ve become between living in Tennessee and Utah over the last few years. Winter is definitely no joke up here in the big sky state!! Brrrrrrrr….

Hope you have a wonderful week and staying warm! Happy hump day!

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!

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…

Wishing you all a safe and wonderful Halloween.

Another Little Piece of My Heart

On October 24, 2013October 23, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas6 Comments

When I was singing in Nashville, one of my favorite songs to perform was Janis Joplin’s version of, you guessed it, Another Little Piece of my heart. It is one of my all-time favorite songs and she, one of my all-time favorite artists. And I’d like to think that perhaps it’s my love for classic music that drew me to this sweater, and not just a weakness for happy sweaters…

Happy, happy Thursday to you all! I don’t know about you, but this has felt like an especially long to me. Thank goodness the end is in sight!

I kind of feel like light colored denim has the same stigma as white after labor day. But this season it’s all about light denim-all year round. And while I have been all about wearing lighter washes with sweaters and button downs, for some reason, I was having a hard time coming up with ways to style my denim jacket. But thank goodness for Pinterest which inspired me to try it back to leopard. And I have to say, I am pretty sure this won’t be the last you’ll see of it this season!

Mad for Plaid

On October 21, 2013October 20, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

I love plaid. Which is lucky for me, because it’s a key trend this fall season. And while I am so excited for all of the different ways I have up my sleeve to style this beloved print, right now, I am loving it paired back to leather and chiffon. A slightly masculine spin on a pretty fall dress, if you will (click here to see how I styled this dress last year)…

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Ours seemed to go by in the blink of an eye. But I must say, I am absolutely in love with the gorgeous Fall weather we are having. Oh how I love the month of October!

Neutrals

On October 17, 2013October 16, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love fall fashion. And by love, I mean really love. There is just something so appealing to me about layering on sweaters, cute jackets, and lots of jewelry. And neutral colors? Forget about it. As much as I am a tried-and-true color girl, this time of year, army green and anything in a neutral color palette is what you’ll find me reaching for. Ok, well maybe with a little pop of color…

I hope you are all having a good week. I have been on the road for work, but head home tonight and can’t wait to see my little family! And on top of that, it’s almost the weekend. Hallelujah!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Shifting

On October 15, 2013October 14, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I’m not ready to give up my dresses just yet-nor am I ready to break out the tights just yet either. So I’ve found that the best way to extend the life of my favorite dresses into the Fall season is with a little layering. And I am absolutely loving the look of a casual chambray shirt back to a more dressed up shift dress. For me, it’s the perfect alternative to a basic cardigan…

I hope you all are having a fantastic week. I am hitting the road again for work today, which always makes things a little hectic in my life. But be sure to stop by again tomorrow for another new outfit post!

Geometric

On October 1, 2013September 30, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love a good geometric print, but it’s not very often that I’m drawn to one enough to actually purchase and wear one. I suppose it’s one of those things that just lies outside of my fashion comfort zone. And to be totally honest, even though I write a blog chronicling my daily outfits, believe it or not, it is still pretty easy to get stuck in a fashion rut. So I am constantly reminding myself to step out of that comfort zone and try something new. Even if it’s something as seemingly small as trying out a new pattern…
