Black And White

I am LOVING the black and white trend right now. Not only is it incredibly chic, but it feels so fresh and so crisp for the summer season. And so today, I wanted to share with you a few of my favorite black and white items! Happy Friday!!

MashUp

On June 5, 2014June 4, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas2 Comments

Sometimes one of my favorite things about fashion is paring things together that don’t necessarily go together. And the mashup of this skirt and top is a prime example. But I have to say, I am loving the unexpected contrast of neon back to classic black and white. And can we talk about this necklace from Ily Couture for minute? Talk about swoon-worthy! It just might be my favorite accessory of the summer!

It’s been a completely crazy week at work for me, so I am feeling proud of myself for managing to get a post up today! 🙂 Hope your week has been a little more mellow than mine!

Thank goodness the weekend is in sight!

Dressy

On June 2, 2014June 1, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I have made a pledge this year to wear more dresses. I’m not quite sure why, but I naturally tend to gravitate towards jeans, heels, and cute tops. But it gets so hot in the SLC during the summer months, that dresses are really a must. PLUS they are so cute and comfy and fun and I am really loving all of the vibrant prints and colors that I am seeing available in stores this season. Case and point? The dress in today’s post. Not only does the tribal print of this dress lend itself well back to denim, but because it showcases so many different colors, it will be an easy piece to style multiple ways this summer. And in my book, versatile pieces like this are the key to expanding your wardrobe without spending a lot of money!

Jacket: JCrew (on sale for under $50! also, it runs big, so order a size down) | Dress: Francesca’s (sold out online, check in store!), loving this one (very similar), this one, this one, this one, and this one | Necklaces: Jeweliq, Etsy | Cuff: Lucky Brand | Watch: Michael Kors | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff | Heels: Nine West (SUPER comfy and on sale!)

I hope you all had a great weekend. Happy Monday!

P.S. If you live in the SLC and love coffee, be sure to stop by the new Publik Coffee. We stopped in to check it out over Memorial Day weekend and fell in love! It’s one of the cooler places I’ve been in the SLC. In fact, it’s actually where we shot these photos. And not only is their coffee and ambiance amazing, but they have an entire menu dedicated solely to different kinds of toast. Brilliant!

Proud To Be An American

On May 27, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I had good intentions of getting this post up in time for Memorial Day, but ended up being too busy having fun with my family (who was in town for the weekend) to sit down and do any blogging. So my apologies for the absence of outfit posts the past few days! But since I’m really digging the patriotic feel of what I wore for our Memorial Day BBQ, I still wanted to share it with all of you!

I love the combination of red, white, and blue-or in this case, neon coral, white, and blue. And of course what could be more American than adding a little pop of denim to an ensemble? So even though Memorial Day weekend has (sadly) come and gone, I love this outfit for a multitude of different summer occasions-including the 4th of July, or really any summer BBQ for that matter….

Instagram Filter: X-Pro

Dress: Macy’s (old), LOVE this one (and it’s on sale!) similar, similar | Vest: Macy’s (old), similar, just purchased this one | Necklaces: House of Harlow here and here | Watch: Michael Kors | Sunnies: Ray-ban | Pumps: Marc Fisher, similar, similar

I hope that you all a wonderful, long, relaxing, and fun holiday weekend!

Now, here’s to a four day work week!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Short Story

I used to think the combo of shorts and heels together was kind of silly. But I have to admit, I am a total convert and wearing heels and shorts together is a summer staple for me. When the weather heats up, I am all about fashion short cuts, and adding heels to any outfit (specifically shorts), is a perfect and easy way to glam up a super casual look…

Instagram Filter: Valencia

Tee: American Eagle (sold out), similar, short sleeve version

Shorts: JCrew (last summer) similar, obsessed with this seersucker version, and LOVE these (on sale!)

Necklace: JCrew

Sunnies: Ray-ban (62mm)

Bag: Steve Madden (old), obsessed with this one AND this one!

Happy Friday, dolls! I wanted to take today to share one last look from our vacation to Nicaragua with all of you. And while this was an outfit that I randomly threw together during our trip, it definitely consists of several of my favorite things: mirrored Ray-bans, a big floppy sun hat, and a fun graphic tee. Perfect for a sunny day in my favorite beach town…

Instagram Filter: Amaro

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! I am getting my ’80’s groove on and going to see Foreigner with my girlfriends from work tonight and I can’t wait!! Be sure to follow along on Instagram to see our rockin’ ’80’s fashion (yes, we are dressing up!).

Happy weekend!!

Foiled

I love silver. And metallics. And sparkles. In fact, when I was in high school, my girlfriends and I loved the Spice Girls so much that we each had our own Spice Girl name. And I was Sparkle Spice. Go figure. So needless to say, I am loving the sequin and sparkle t-shirt trend this season. Especially when paired back to destroyed jeans and other accessories of a like metallic, for a sparkly, yet monochromatic look…

So I’ve got a question. What do you all think of my silver Michael Kors bag? I got it for a steal at Macy’s, but am on the fence as to whether or not it’s a keeper. Would love to know if you guys think I should love it or leave it.

Thanks for stopping by!

At the end of summer, I am never ready to put away any of my pretty dresses. So I always love to look for ways to prolong their use into the early fall season. And I have to say, that an army surplus vest, back to cognac accessories, seems to do just the trick…

I hope your week is off to a great start. I know I have another crazy busy one on the books. But on the bright side, at least there is a nice, long three-day weekend ahead of us to look forward to!

Transition

I hate to admit it, but fall is in the air. And as I feel the crispness start to infiltrate early mornings and late evenings, I can’t help but find myself drawn to more transitional pieces. Particularly anything leather, leopard, or with studs.

Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!
