Light and Airy

On May 6, 2014May 6, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love a good structured peplum top. I am also particularly being drawn towards all things white this season. So this top has (obviously) been on frequent rotation in my closet as of late. I am also finding myself gravitating towards anything nude as far as footwear is concerned. And how could I forget light wash denim for both jackets and jeans? I guess it’s safe to say this warmer weather has me wanting to lighten things up a bit…

Spring Fever

On March 7, 2014 By all dolled upIn Favorite Products, Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

Happy Friday, dolls! Thought I would leave you today with a few things that I am hoping to add to my Spring wardrobe. And the best part? Everything is under $100 (except the tote). I don’t know about you all, but I think my spring fever has officially set in!

Radiant Orchid

On January 6, 2014January 6, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I have to admit, I usually get pretty excited every year when Pantone announces their “official” color of the year. But last year I was so thrilled when they announced that the “it” color of 2013 was Emerald Green, that I didn’t hold out much hope for 2014-that is until they announced that their official color of the year was Radiant Orchid (insert swoon here). Now if there is one color that could top Emerald Green in my book, this is most definitely it. So what better way to kick off my 2014 blog posts than with an ode to Radiant Orchid, Pantone’s official color of 2014…

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. I have to admit, I’m a little sad to be back to the grind today. My time away from work just seemed to go by so quickly. But the good news is, I have a lot to look forward to in the next couple of months!

Happy Monday! And thanks for stopping by!

P.S. How amazingly gorgeous is Utah? So blessed to live in this beautiful state!

So Long, 2013…

I always get a little reflective and perhaps even pensive when each year ends and a new one begins. It is a time of excitement and the promise of a new beginning and fresh start, but the turning of that page always makes me a little sad too. The older I get, the faster and faster time seems to go. Cliche, I know, but true none-the-less.

Looking back at 2013, this blog has really been such a highlight of my year. And so, I wanted to take today’s post to THANK ALL OF YOU for being with me every step of the way. Your support, your engagement, your ideas, your encouragement, your love-it has all meant the world to me. And I sincerely hope you will continue along this journey with me into 2014 I could not do what I do every day without each and every single one of you. So truly, from the bottom of my hear, THANK YOU.

And what better way to close out 2013 than with a look back at some of my (and yours too!) favorite looks from this year…

Casual Sparkle

Hello everyone! I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas. I must admit, I am feeling a little sad that it’s all over. Why is it that the things we look forward to the most always seem to go by the most quickly? But on a positive note, I am really looking forward to 2014 and all of the promise and adventure that a new year holds for us all. And with that, I thought I might share yet another holiday plaid look on the blog today, but this time layered with a little sparkle. A look that is casual enough to wear during the daytime, or perfect for a cozy New Year’s eve spent at home…

Buffalo

I love plaid. Like really love it. But of all of the cute plaids I’ve seen this season, a classic buffalo check plaid just might be my favorite. And so when I saw this scarf at Gap (for 40%!), I knew it was coming home with me. And hats! Oh my gosh. I LOVE hats! I mean really, how easy (and fun) is it to just throw on a super simple outfit and a few cute accessories to really an outfit take it up a notch!

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 hope you are all having a wonderful week so far. I’ve got to tell you, I am so happy it’s Wednesday and we are at the halfway point. Now if the weekend would just hurry up and get here already!

Vegas Recap

On September 27, 2013September 26, 2013 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

If you follow me on Instagram, then you know that J and I were in Las Vegas last week for a long weekend and a bike race. We had a fantastic time and spent our days riding our road bikes through the Red Rock Canyon, attending Interbike, doing a little shopping, and (mostly) lounging by the pool. It was a fun and relaxing few days. But I have to say, my favorite part was the excuse to get extra dressed up for dinner in the evenings. And any excuse to throw on a little extra sparkle is a good enough excuse for me…

I don’t know about you guys, but I am so excited for the weekend, I can hardly stand it. It’s just been one of those weeks, I guess.

Thank you so much for stopping by-like I have said before, you all brighten my days more than you know! And if you haven’t yet, be sure to follow All Dolled Up on Instagram, Facebook, and Bloglovin’ (links to your right).

Happy weekend!!
