Spotlight Weekly Link-Up | Week 39: Stripes

May 08, 2014

Happy Thursday lovelies! This outfit is the perfect idea of a casual weekend date ensemble! Yes, my stye is more simplistic than "bam!" these days, but that's how I like it. Sure it's fun to experiment, but my love for classic, timeless style is never-ending. As for the handbag in this post, I had a crisis this past weekend. I couldn't decide which staple bag I should buy- [thanks to the amazing ladies on Instagram that helped me narrow it down!) This darling, black Rebecca Minkoff M.A.B. bag is amazing for all seasons, but so is the cognac Tory Burch Robinson tote. Therefore, with the help of some fashionable ladies, I decided I need both of them, and just like that, with the help of some Nordstrom gift cards, I was the owner of two more amazing, staple designer handbags! I can't wait to see how you styled stripes!

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

Bloggers Who Budget: One Piece Two Ways

January 20, 2014

Wearing

Today I'm styling my favorite plaid scarf from Zara two ways for our second Bloggers Who Budget series. I've worn it a million times this season and can't wait to keep it in my closet as a staple piece for Fall! The price point ($30) is absolutely amazing, so I couldn't pass up this fabulous piece. Be sure to check out all of these wonderful, stylish ladies' blogs and how they styled one piece two ways! Happy Monday! Here's to a fabulous week full of JOY!

I own so many pencil skirts...I think I have every color and texture that a skirt is offered in, however, sometimes I struggle with the boring, plain old idea of dressing up a skirt. (Especially when it's more than 100 degrees outside!) Sometimes I like to be unexpected and a pair a cute graphic tee or plain t-shirt with my skirts, so that's exactly what I did! I love the blues from the skirt paired with the bright neon color; and how lucky am I that I paired this necklace with the outfit on a whim?! It's just a coincidence that the tone of this necklace happens to be a slightly blue hue! I love fashion coincidences. What is one of your favorite unexpected fashion coincidences?

Don't forget to shop my Stella & Dot trunk show! There's still twelve more days to purchase a gorgeous piece of jewelry and to enter the Stella & Dot giveaway! Thank you so much for reading!
