I am all about army green surplus jackets and they always seem to reign supreme in my closet this time of year. But truth be told, this camel color jacket has been my absolute favorite this season! It’s such a refreshing alternative to the ever popular olive-green jacket, and the gold hardware makes it feel extra special. It really is the perfect piece to throw on with jeans for all of those weekend errands and last-minute Christmas shopping!!

Jacket: Tommy Hilfiger via Macy’s (sold out online, but check in store!), LOVE this version for winter, similar, similar | Sweater: Banana Republic | Silk Tunic: Express (40% off! this top is perfect for layering on wearing on it’s low-a must have!!) | Ponte Pants: JCrew (on sale for 50% 0ff!!!) | Necklaces: Gigglosophy, House of Harlow | Sunnies: Karen Walker (less expensive version) | Bag: Michael Kors | Booties: Steven by Steve Madden via DSW

The Holiday Season

On December 11, 2014December 10, 2014 By all dolled upIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

I love this time of year. And one of my favorite parts? The holiday parties! And fortunately, this season, J and I have plenty to attend-the first of which is this weekend! So when I saw this skirt in the Nordstrom Savvy department a couple of weeks ago, I knew it was the perfect holiday party piece to add to my closet! And I’m especially loving it back to a plaid shirt with a pop of red-helps to make it slightly less dressy and perfect for any type of holiday occaision!

Girl About Town

My hubby races bikes every Saturday in the Fall. And after his race, we usually like to find a new place somewhere in the city to either grab a beer or a coffee and a treat to celebrate. It’s nothing too big or significant, but one of my favorite weekend traditions none-the-less. And because our Saturday’s are so laid back, my outfits tend follow suit and are generally some variation of the below. Jeans, puffy vest, booties, repeat…

Instagram Filter: Amaro

Tee: H&M (can’t find it online, but check in store!), also loving this and this | Vest: JCrew (my new fave and it’s on sale!) | Skinnies: American Eagle Denim X (obsessed) | Necklace: Tiffany | Sunnies: Target (old), similar | Bag: Marc Jacobs | Booties: Lucky Brand (last year) this year’s version, similar, similar

Hope you are all having a wonderful week. Thank you SO much for stopping by!

Mad Hatter

I can’t stop wearing hats this Fall. They might just be my favorite trend. And swingy, comfy sweaters? Another closet staple. So if you are looking to update your wardrobe this season, I highly recommend considering a new floppy hat and a comfy, cozy sweater (or two) in a rich jewel tone.

Instagram Filter: Mayfair

LIPS: Rebel by MAC (looks amazing on everyone-trust me!)

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Happy Monday!!!

Think Pink

On October 31, 2014October 30, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love that pretty much anything goes this Fall season. And when I say anything, I mean hot pink and florals aren’t just for the spring and summer months anymore. And while l love my neutrals this time of year, I am finding a pop of color to be a welcome addition to my Fall wardrobe. But I want to know, what do you all think of wearing bright colors and pastels during the cooler months?

Happy, happy Friday, and a Happy Halloween to you all! Hope you have a fun and safe holiday!!!

Booties

On October 28, 2014October 27, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas3 Comments

Today, I want to talk about booties. They are everywhere this season and I am absolutely in love with the trend. BUT I’ll be honest, I find booties very difficult to wear. I workout and bike and ski a lot, so I don’t have super skinny legs. I’m also short (not quite 5’4″), so I find that most booties can tend to make me look thick in the legs and even shorter than I already am! And that is definitely not look I’m going for! Ha! I’ve tried on countless pairs and always love them on the rack and on other people, but seldom like them on myself. However, I have finally found the trick to the perfect bootie for all you gals out there who are struggling with this trend like me. And the secret, my friends? Booties that dip down in the front, or that are a little closer to a pump than a bootie (like the pair in today’s post-a shootie, if you will). Seriously, I can’t tell you what a difference a little dip in the front will make for you and the length it will give you back in your legs. So if you have been feeling anything like me when it comes to booties-don’t give up! I’ve linked up some of my favorite, and (more importantly) flattering booties below!

Instagram Filter: Lo-Fi

Sweater: Old Navy | Skinnies: 7 for all mankind, similar | Necklace: Stella & Dot (old), obsessed with this and this| Bracelets: Stella & Dot, Forever21 (old), similar | Hat: Jessica Simpson via Nordstrom Rack (LOVE the Candied Ginger color) | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs | Booties: Jessica Simpson via TJMaxx (I can’t find these anywhere online-sorry!)

And last but not least, here are my recommendations for flattering booties: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, my faves, splurge

Long Sleeved Dresses

On October 21, 2014October 20, 2014 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I don’t know what it is, but I am obsessed with long sleeve dresses this Fall. Now don’t get me wrong, I love wearing all of my sleeveless dresses with cute jackets and cardis, but when the weather is still fairly mild, I love the idea of changing things up a bit and leaving the jacket at home. And while I was obviously drawn to this dress because of the sleeves, I also love it’s unique leopard print. It feels refreshing to me to add a piece to my closet that isn’t a basic leopard, but rather a fun play on my favorite type of print!

What do you guys think of long sleeved dresses? I’d love to hear!

The Road Less Traveled

Fall in Utah is my favorite. Not only is it absolutely gorgeous, but it seems to last forever and the weather is unbelievably amazing. I seriously can’t imagine a better place to be for the months of September and October. And with the fall foliage at a frenzy right now, I am trying desperately to enjoy every second of it before the snow starts to fly-which means weekends spent at the farmer’s market, watching bike races, and checking out all of the beautiful fall colors. And I have to say that cozy sweaters and comfy booties have been my go-to weekend uniform as of late-particularly if they are cognac and gray…

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Well hello there, Friday! And hello there, sweet readers! I am so glad to be back with another outfit post for you guys today! My apologies for the radio silence, but I was traveling all week for work, and it poured rain all last weekend, so I fell a little behind with my outfit photos. But the good news is I’m back, AND it’s the end of another work week! So what better way to kick off the first weekend of the glorious month of October than by showcasing my favorite buffalo plaid shirt and destroyed black skinnies!
