Pretty in Pink

On August 13, 2013August 13, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas5 Comments

Oh how I love pink. All shades of pink, and anything that comes in pink. And so, when I saw that one of the things on JCrew’s Fall 2013 trend report was mixing different shades of the same color, I thought I’d get a jump-start and test out the look with a summer outfit composed of a few of my favorite things. Which of course, should come as no surprise, are all shades of pink…

I know I am personally really excited about this new trend and can’t wait to experiment with it. Especially as we get closer and closer to the Fall season. But I would love to know, what do you all think?

Happy Tuesday!

FPF: Montana Love Tee

On August 9, 2013 By all dolled upIn Favorite Products, Outfit Ideas2 Comments

I will always have a love affair with my home state of Montana. There is just something so special about it that I can’t explain. It was the most incredible place to grow up and someday I hope I can raise my children there, or that it will, at the very least, be an important part of their lives too. And because I was lucky enough to marry a man who loves Montana as much as I do, every summer, J and I make a trip back to my hometown to soak in the beauty, the serenity, and all of the amazing-ness that is Montana. And this year’s vacation, as usual, was the high light of my summer. So when I saw these cute Montana Shirt Co. Tee’s everywhere on Facebook and realized their shop was located in my hometown, I knew I needed to get one so I could express my love for my home state with pride anytime, anywhere…

Be sure to stop by Montana Shirt Co. and check out their assortment of tee’s, tanks and hoodies. They have a ton of cute stuff and the quality is fantastic. But be sure to order at least a size up-the women’s tee’s run pretty small.

Hope you all had a fantastic week. Happy Friday!!!!!

Boyfriend

On August 5, 2013August 5, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

While J and I were on vacation this past week, someone asked me if he was my boyfriend. And being that we just celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary, that kind of made me giggle. Because really, the only true boyfriend I have in my life these days, is my favorite pair of boyfriend jeans…

I cannot believe how fast our vacation went by-sometimes I wish I had a magic button I could press to slow down the time just a little. But I will forever cherish all of the amazing memories and fun times shared with family and friends while we were in Montana.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Simple.

In an effort not to overload you all on color this week, I thought today I would post a more neutral outfit. Because after all, sometimes it’s true what they say, simple is best. And while I don’t always necessarily gravitate towards these types of vintagey tops, the fabric and drape of this one was just to pretty to pass by. You can also see how I styled it another way here…

Hope you are all having a wonderful week! Thanks for stopping by!

Stormy Weather

On June 24, 2013 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

While I spend a lot of time on the road for my job, one of the perks of all of the travel is that every couple of months, I get to take a trip back to my home state of Montana. And depending on the time of year and our schedules, sometimes it works out (like it did this past weekend) that J can come and join me and we can sneak in a long weekend in one of our favorite places-which also happens to be where we first met. And while the weather was cold and stormy (which required a little more layering than I’m used to this time of year), we still managed to have a great time with friends, visited all of our favorites places (and discovered some new), and were even able to sneak in a few miles on the bikes in between showers…

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I know I for one can’t wait for our next trip to Bozeman. Such a fun little town packed with so many good memories.

And if you haven’t already, don’t forget to enter the JCrew $50 gift card contest here! It runs through Wednesday at midnight. AND they are having a huge sale right now, so it’s the perfect time to shop!

Cold Shoulder

On June 10, 2013June 10, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

I LOVE the one shoulder trend-in fact it’s always one of my favorites every time it comes around. And while it’s not quite as relevant this year as it has been the past two, I still feel like it’s a trend that’s applicable for the season. And lucky for me, because one of my favorite summertime looks is a one-shoulder tee-shirt back to a fun, flirty skirt…

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I feel like mine went by in the blink of an eye-but of course weekends tend to do that, don’t they?

Thank you for stopping by!

Date Night

On June 4, 2013June 4, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

I love a good date night outfit. And while I normally use date night as an excuse to wear a cute dress or skirt, sometimes you just can’t beat a good pair of jeans and a sparkly top. Especially when you add some fun accessories…

Instagram Filter: Walden

And of course in addition to a great outfit, who doesn’t love a cute pair of shoes? And even better? A cute, comfy, and, affordable pair of shoes! And these wedges fit the bill. In fact, I have them in another color (which you can see here) and I’m pretty sure both pairs will be important staples in my wardrobe this summer. Plus, right now they are on sale for under $30. Get them before they’re gone!!

Neutral Obsession

On June 3, 2013June 2, 2013 By all dolled upIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

As much as I am enamored with color, I am perhaps equally as enamored with neutrals. They are soft, feminine, and, most importantly, a refreshing break from the neons and brights that I normally find myself gravitating towards (more often than not)…

Instagram Filter: Nashville

Peplum Top: Forever21 | Jeans: Joe’s Jeans | Necklaces: JCrew (here and here) | Bracelets: Stella & Dot, Aldo (old), Oia

Jules, Kate Spade | Sunnies: Nordstrom (not online, but check in store) | Bag: Michael Kors | Pumps: Michael Kors Avery (on sale!!!)

Don’t you love when you have been eyeing something online and it turns out to be even better in person? Such was the case with this cute peplum top. I had seen it online, but as much as I love it, have a hard time with the whole peplum trend (I am very short-waisted, so they don’t normally do much for me). But when my family was here for Memorial Day weekend, my mom treated my sister-in-law and me to a traditional shopping trip, and I was able to spot it on the rack at Forever21. And I have to say, it’s one of those Forever21 pieces that is quite impressive. While most of the stuff in that store is fairly cheap both in quality and in price, and what I would consider “disposable” fashion (not that it can’t still have a very desirable place in your wardrobe), they do have items (if you have the patience) that are actually quite nice and very well made. And this top is one of them. The fit and fabric are both lovely and in person it looks very expensive. Don’t you just love finding bargains like? Me and my bank account sure do. 😉

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

My Vest Accessory

On May 23, 2013May 22, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

When I originally put this outfit together, it was sans vest. But one thing I have learned about blogging is that sometimes, the more layers and jewelry you pile one, the better the photos turn out. Apparently there are some instances where more is more! But I have to say that I think the vest really made this outfit complete, and not just for the sake of blog photos. And so, it should come as no surprise, that I am absolutely loving the vest trend again this summer. So if you haven’t already, denim or surplus, it’s time to add one to your closet!

Hope you are all having a wonderful week. Mine has been beyond crazy and I am so looking forward to the long holiday weekend and having family in town.

Back At It

On May 13, 2013May 13, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas, UncategorizedLeave a comment

Well hello there, my lovely readers! After a brief little blogging hiatus, I am back! And can I just say that last week was an absolutely crazy (and wonderful) one for me? Between a work trip to San Francisco for our Vendor Summit, a birthday celebration, and a nice long weekend spent in my favorite city by the bay (packed full of my favorite activities), I think my head is still spinning!! So since I’m slowly, but surely, getting back into the swing of things, I thought today was the perfect opportunity to keep it short and sweet and share with you one of my favorite color combinations ever-pink and navy.

Can you believe that I stumbled upon these darling wedges at JCP of all places? I had actually seen them in a magazine and wanted to check them out in person since I was a little unsure about buying a pair of shoes from Penny’s. And while I have to say that I wasn’t expecting much, I was pleasantly surprised by just how cute they are in person, the quality, and the amazing price (under $40!!). They are definitely going to be a staple in my wardrobe this summer.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
