Fringed Kimonos & Sunsets

Fashion•Outfits

Two things I absolutely love: fringed kimonos and sunsets. I love kimonos, especially when they have a fun pattern and unique style. This printed, fringed kimono from Zaful has every detail I love – the length, the colors, the pattern, the fringe – everything! I’ve been eyeing so many fringed booties too, I think I’m going to have to pick up a pair soon. Also, how awesome is this pearl blossom necklace from Happiness Boutique?! It reminds of one I’ve been wanting for a long time, but could never get myself to buy. This one looks and feels high quality, yet...

The Best Accessories for a Holiday Look

Holidays•Outfits

Holiday styles are always more fun with the right accessories, from gorgeous sparkly jewelry, to glittery clutches and a statement pair of heels (for me that’s a pop of color). All of these aspects can really dress up a holiday style, from a simple black dress to a sweater and jeans combination. But let’s not forget one of the most overlooked and important accessories of all – your smile! Ever since high school, I begged “santa” for Crest White Strips so I could brighten up my smile for New Year’s Eve parties. After I received them one year, it became tradition...

Holiday Party Style with H&M

Fashion•Holidays•Outfits

December is upon us, which means I have officially entered into full holiday mode – non-stop Christmas music, sparkling lights galore and getting ready for festivities ranging from work parties to holiday events with friends and family. While the joy and the cheer of the season is certainly delightful, one of the most exciting parts about the holiday season is being able to plan what I’m wearing for holiday parties! I always start by focusing my party outfit around shades of red or green, and then add details like sparkly jewels, textures and a fabulous pair of heels. H&M...

Spring Office Style

Outfits

Happy Monday! Today I am sharing an outfit with pieces from 10DollarMall.com. I love the idea of mixing up my typical work wear (pencil skirts and blouses) with bold patterns and bright colors! I am SO excited to be working with 10DollarMall again! Last year, I shared this, this and this outfit from 10DollarMall.com. I loved my pieces so much that I have been purchasing my own pieces, which I’ve styled here and here. What I absolutely love about 10DollarMall is that nothing is over $10 (hence the name)! It reminds me of F21 or Charlotte Russe, or for those of you who are local,...

What to Wear for Cinco de Mayo: Tribal-Inspired Pieces

Fashion•Shopping

 {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} Every year around Cinco de Mayo, I love looking for tribal-inspired pieces from jewelry to dresses and leggings! Can we talk about how gorgeous this necklace is? Although the festivities will be less this year since it lands on a Monday, I’m still going to enjoy some margaritas and hopefully at Pepitoes, which my friend recently introduced me to. Will you be wearing a tribal-inspired dress for Cinco de Mayo? I will probably wear a dress I’ve had for years (seen here), but let’s be honest, it probably won’t be warm enough for that!...

Pink & Coral

Shopping

{purse, dress, jacket, watch, pink shoes, coral shoes, skirt, earrings, necklace} Two colors I would like to add to my wardrobe for spring and summer?! Pink and coral! On the top of my list, the gorgeous scalloped pink satchel from Asos! And I’m incredibly happy today because it’s raining!!!!!! Rain makes me giddy! In fact, when I took my dog out this morning, I did a little dance in the rain. Hope you are having a fabulous week so far… Happy Friday Eve!

January Budget 2014

Fashion•Shopping

HELLO! It is already January 31st. Although it has felt like a long month (thanks to the lovely weather), it also flew by. Got back from Vegas late Tuesday night and have literally just been trying to catch up on life. Honestly, we didn’t really take many pictures, just some I captured on Instagram, so I probably won’t have much to share here! I didn’t even get a full picture in my gold sequin dress! FAIL. Epic fail. Oh well, my boyfriend and I had good time and that’s all that matters! Onto the January budget. I didn’t do...

Striped

Fashion•Outfits

It has officially become winter in Minnesota over the past week. Snow + below zero temperatures = a not so happy me. Although the snow is beautiful, I must admit. Anyway, wore this outfit yesterday for brunch with some girlfriends downtown. Bottomless mimosas from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.? I think YES. Okay, I actually only had a couple because I would have to venture back out in the snow as you can see in these pictures. I hope you all have a great week! Striped Turtleneck, Younkers (similar) – previously worn here, here and here Denim Vest, c/o Silver...

My Little Side Kick

Outfits

Emma decided to join me today and show you my new Fit in Clouds foldable flats! She really is my little side kick, she follows me everywhere around the apartment and even when she’s still hyper she will come lay down by me when I go to bed! Anyway, onto the flats! These flats are perfect to throw in your purse and bring with you everywhere, and like last night, switch from heels to flats for after work. Isn’t the pattern super cute?! I love them and will be keeping them with me ALL the time from now on!...
