Spotlight Weekly Link-Up | Week 51: Summer Red

July 30, 2014

Wearing: French Connection dress (similar) | J.Crew necklace | Nine West heels (similar) | Dana Buchmann via Kohls clutch | Michael Kors Watch



Hello darlings! Today Jacqueline and I styled summer red as our trend, and I'm loving how fabulous this dress looks with a top knot. I wore this for our rehearsal dinner, and haven't worn it since, so I decided to pull it out and style it a little differently! I chose a classic twisted pearl necklace and some chic leopard heels to dress up this fancy frock. How would you style this dress? Do you believe it could be dressed down? I think pairing it with an olive green vest and cognac boots in the Fall would dress it down a bit, right? Hope you are having a fabulous week!

The lovely Jacqueline and I post our link-ups every Thursday! This week our theme is outfits that feature summer red! Come back weekly to visit us! (Click after the break to link-up!)


1. We kindly ask that you follow the two hosts: Elle from Living in Color Style and Jacqueline from Stylin' In St. Louis via Bloglovin or GFC! We don't have a guest host this week! (The first two links in the link-up.)

2. Use the button provided on Elle or Jacqueline's side bar or link back to the link-up on your blog.

3. Enjoy reading other blogs and make new blogger friends!


SPOTLIGHT:
This week's spotlight is Amy of Cupcakes & Couture. Her patterned outfit from last week is beyond amazing, so make sure to stop by her blog and say hello!
NEXT WEEK: Next week, instead of styling a trend as our spotlight, we want to celebrate your individual style! It's a FREE WEEK, so you can link up any item, color or pattern you like! Thank you so much for reading, and for linking up!

    You look absolutely stunning in that red dress! Love how your bun looks so chic and not too tight! How you described dressing this down was exactly what I had in mind when I read the question of how I would do it.
