I love a good hat. In fact, on most winter weekends, you can almost always find me wearing one (most likely covering up helmet hair from a day on the slopes). Not only are they an easy (and practical) accessory to throw on with just about any outfit, but they are perfect for this time of year when the temps start dropping (or when you just don’t feel like doing your hair)…

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. My hubby had a double header bike race this weekend, so ours revolved around biking. But lucky for me, Cyclocross is a really fun event to watch, and my husband is having a great year-so it’s always exciting.

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!

On Repeat

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

If you were to run into me on a typical Saturday in the Fall, I would most likely be wearing something similar to today’s outfit. In my book, it’s tough to beat a staple chambray shirt (plaid is also often on repeat), my favorite skinnies, a vest for layering, and a pair of boots comfy enough for running errands or cheering my hubby on at a Cyclocross race. This is definitely my go-to fall look, and if I am being honest, it has been for the last couple of years. Not super exciting, I know. But sometimes practicality wins out over fashion…

P.S. Aren’t the Fall colors absolutely stunning here in Utah??? I can’t get over it.

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!

Blazer of Glory

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

One thing I feel like I often neglect to write about on this blog is the importance of owning a fantastic black blazer. I think because I wear them for work nearly every day, I forget that it’s a piece not everyone might own. But with the weather changing, I am finding that I am reaching for my blazers not only for work, but also to wear as a light jacket back to my favorite destroyed skinnies and a tried-and-true graphic tee. They really are the perfect piece for so many different occasions and something everyone should have in their closet…

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend. I can hardly believe it’s Monday already again. Sometimes I swear it feels like it’s always Monday, don’t you think?

American Eagle Part Three

On October 11, 2013October 11, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

Happy Friday everyone! And welcome to the third and final installment of my Bloggers Do It Better feature with American Eagle! This outfit was my personal favorite of the three. Which should come as no surprise, because as I’ve said time and time again on this blog, there is nothing I love more than mixing something sweet back to something a little more gritty-especially when there is a little (or a lot) of sparkle involved…

Thank you all so much for the amazing outpouring of love and support this week. Y’all sure know how to make a girl feel special. Wishing you all a fantastic weekend. Thanks so much for stopping by!!

American Eagle Part Two

First of all, I just want to thank you all for the outpouring of love and support yesterday! I have been so excited to share this project with all of you and the response has far exceeded what I had hoped for. So THANK YOU ALL from the bottom of my heart.

Today, I wanted to share the details of my 2nd outfit with you. Truth be told, I had done a shoot with another outfit but when it was time to submit the photos, I just didn’t feel right about it. And I can’t tell you how glad I am that I trusted my gut and opted for one more photo-op with my favorite vest. Because it was by far and away, everyone’s favorite look of the three…
