Print Mixing

On February 27, 2015February 27, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I love that it’s perfectly acceptable to mix different prints together (thank you Jenna Lyons!). I mean really, a couple of years ago, I never would have thought to wear leopard and tribal prints together. In the same outfit. But for whatever reason, it works. And perhaps more importantly? It’s FUN. And in my book, fashion should always be fun, don’t you think?

Jacket: H&M (old), my other favorite black faux leather jacket | Sweater: H&M (can’t find online, but check in store-it’s only $9.95 and comes in TONS of colors!!!!), similar, LOVE this | Peplum Top: Gap, love this | Skinnies: 7 for all mankind | Necklace: Raven + Lily | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Bag: Clare Vivier, clutch version | Pumps: Joe’s Jeans (under $60 and really comfy!)

Happy, happy Friday to you and yours! Hope you guys have a fantastic weekend! Thank you so much for stopping by and I will see you Monday!!

I love a good stripe. And even though this blazer is a few years old, it is still one of my very favorite things. Because to be totally honest, while it’s always fun to buy new items for your wardrobe (duh!), it can be equally as fun to challenge yourself to style tried-and-true pieces in new and creative ways…

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

Cardi

On February 3, 2015February 2, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I’ve been really into cardigan sweaters lately. They are so easy to slip on over a silky blouse for work, or over a t-shirt on the weekend. I am also finding myself drawn to the slightly longer-length boyfriend fit this season. Because let’s be honest, anything cozy or gray seems to be on heavy rotation in my closet right now!

Cardigan: Loft (on sale for $25 and comes in a TON of great colors!!) | Silk Tee: Express | Skinnies: 7 for all mankind (on sale!) | Necklace: DownEast Outfitters (check in store), similar, LOVE this | Watch: Michael Kors | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Bag: Tory Burch | Pumps: BCBG via DSW, similar, LOVE these, just ordered these (I have them in black and they are the cutest, comfiest shoes EVER)

I hope your week is off to a great start!

Thank you so much for your support and for stopping by!

Muah!

Shifty

I love a good shift dress. It’s a great way to look polished without really putting in much thought or effort. Because let’s face it, sometimes getting dressed can be really HARD (no matter how many clothes you have in your closet!). So I always try to have a couple of these on hand in basic colors-a wardrobe hack, if you will. They are super flattering on just about any body type, and pair well with boots or pumps, blazers or denim jackets, and also happen to look great paired with faux fur vests! So if you don’t have a basic shift dress in your wardrobe, you should. Just another one of those items that will give you a ton of outfit options without breaking the bank!

Party Pants

On January 27, 2015January 26, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

Confession time: when I was in high school, my girlfriends and I loved The Spice Girls (like really loved them!)! So when they came out with their movie, we not only dressed up to go and see it, but we also each had our own Spice Girl name. And mine was, wait for it, Sparkle Spice! If you are reading this post and you know me, then this probably comes as no surprise to you. But for those of you who don’t know me personally, then it should be noted that I LOVE sparkles-glitter, sequins, you name it, if it blings I am in! So while I feel like people normally bust out their sequins during the holidays or for special occasions, when styled the correct way, I think sequins can be worn any time. And what better way to dress down a pair of sequin pants than with a favorite tee and a surplus jacket (remember how versatile I said they were in my Wardrobe Staples post??)…

Hope your week is off to a great start! Thank you SO much for stopping by!!!

The Denim Jacket

On January 20, 2015January 19, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

Last week I wrote a post about wardrobe staples. And today, I wanted to talk specifically about one of the items that I had on my list. And that, my friends, is a denim jacket. I wear mine constantly (which y’all have probably noticed on the blog and on my Instagram). It’s a great layering piece, and obviously a great jacket for milder temps. And not only that, but it can be worn with dresses, pants, or skirts-dressed up or dressed down. I am telling you ladies, a denim jacket is season-less, timeless, and it’s a fairly inexpensive investment (which makes it an easy addition to any closet)! So if you don’t have a denim jacket in your wardrobe, be sure to scroll to the bottom of this post, because I’ve cut out the leg work and have rounded up my favorites just for all of you…

Jacket: JCrew (On sale for under $50!!! It does run a bit big, so size down-I’m wearing an xs and am usually a small), also love this, this, this, and this | Gray Tunic: Banana Republic | Silk Layering Tee: Express | Ponte Pants: JCrew | Necklace: Stella & Dot (old), just ordered this one | Sunnies: Karen Walker, less expensive version | Bag: Michael Kors Selma | Booties: Steve Madden via DSW

And in case you didn’t notice, I guess I should point out that I am wearing all of the wardrobe staples that I talked about in my post last week-not just the denim jacket. I am telling you guys, staple items are the key to a great wardrobe.

Hope your week is off to a great start! Thank you for stopping by!

Blushing

On January 19, 2015January 18, 2015 By all dolled upIn Outfit Ideas1 Comment

I don’t know what it is, but I have really been gravitating towards neutrals lately. And while blush pink is the “it” color right now-it has always been one of my personal favorites. So I have been more than happy to wear my blush pink items outside of the spring and summer months this winter. But I want to know, how are you guys feeling about blush pink this season?

Blush Pink Jacket: Guess (old), similar, similar, LOVE this one, and this one | Leopard Top: Jane.com (not currently available), love this and this | Skinnies: American Eagle Denim X (obsessed) | Necklace: INC | Sunnies: Karen Walker, less expensive version | Bag: Tory Burch | Pumps: Jessica Simpson, similar (also under $50!)

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I was lucky enough to spend mine in Austin, TX celebrating the wedding of my one of my dearest friends. SUCH a fantastic wedding weekend.

Thank you SO much for stopping by!

TGIF

On January 9, 2015 By all dolled upIn Giveaway, Outfit IdeasLeave a comment

I can’t even begin to tell you guys how happy I am that it is Friday! Why does the first full week of the year always seem to go by so slowly? Just another one of life’s many mysteries, I guess! Anyway, today I wanted to share a super casual outfit with you all that is one of my go-to looks. As much as I love color, I am obsessed with gray and love it paired with white-especially when you throw in a pop of cognac. I don’t know if it’s the dreariness of January or the post holiday blues, but this is a combo I’ve been reaching for all week. And don’t forget to scroll to the bottom of the post to see if you won the $50 Bohme Boutique giveaway!

Sweater: Super Dry via TJMaxx, similar, LOVE this one (on sale for $11.99!) | T-Shirt: H&M (old), this is my favorite tee EVER | Denim: 7 for all mankind | Necklace: Raven + Lily (fair trade, AND it’s on sale!) | Sunnies: Karen Walker, less expensive version | Bag: Tory Burch | Booties: Anne Klein via DSW (SO comfy and I’m obsessed with the cute little tassels!)

And the lucky winner of the $50 Bohme Boutique Giftcard is:

NICKI JOSEPH

Happy weekend sweet friends!!!!
