Winter Patriot: Boston Military Style in Hues of Blue

Since we were in Boston, I wanted to look the part with one of my ensembles to pay tribute and landed on this blue hued look. Please note since it was quite cold this ensemble is very layered.

I have on a velvet pageboy hat, shimmering earrings from Sugarfix, with a navy turtle neck under a space dyed mixed knot sweater. My jeans are my most favorite and flattering pair from Mott&Bow and this adorable coat – which really completes this look is a find from JustFab! The buttons and cuff trimming are what make this such a stunning piece along with the incredible fit! I wore this in the city and on our excursion to Plymouth. JustFab has such a great variety of on-trend apparel as well as shoes! If you haven’t checked them out in a while I highly suggest it! the pieces are excellent quality and totally worth the monthly fee!

Hope you liked my take on a modern patriot look! All of the pieces are super affordable and comfy plus so easy to pack – because no one wants that wrinkled just out of the suitcase look!

Fuzzy Reds & Crisp Whites

So the last time I wore this skirt I received so many compliments on it and since its such an affordable piece on Amazon I just had to style it again for you guys! Here I layered it with black tights, and my favorite red ankle booties, along with a red chunky knit sweater. This outfit is super warm and cozy perfect for the chilly northern air and for a coat, I wore a long faux fur cream colored coat I snagged on sale last year from express, but will try to find similar options for you all!

This look ended up perfect for our recent trip to Boston. I went ahead and wore tights for a little extra warmth, which was the best idea! I adore the color red and try to style it as often as possible, especially in the winter and just loved how this look turned out with this white and black tie skirt. The pieces on their own are quite casual, but together really make a statement!

Getting Holiday Ready with Morning Lavender

I absolutely love red and tweed for the holiday season! Something about the two together just completely puts me in the spirit! – And oddly enough makes me want to start wrapping gifts! This adorable top and skirt are from the cutest boutique Morning Lavender, which offers some of the most beautiful feminine lace and tulle pieces that you just have to get your hands on for this season! Whether for gifting, or wearing yourself at your holiday gatherings, their skirts are all must-haves! Pricing is on-point, for the quality and fit of the product and their team is the sweetest.

So for this look I styled their Ellie Burgundy Lace Crop Top in a size M with their Kira Ivory Plaid Skirt in size L. I selected these sizes based on how I wanted the pieces to fit. Their sizing guide and customer review sections are super helpful when it comes to size selection. The top has a full back zip closure which I prefer on lace tops, along with a partial lining. There is slight give to the material and it lays beautifully. And for the skirt; it is perfect for winter! It’s thick enough and my favorite part, it is not at all see through as it is lined so you don’t have to worry with spanx or a slip – it is not see through even though its white – woohoo!

I think this is the cutest holiday look and would look fabulous day to night! I have added my OTK boots in black and a classic bag to complete the ensemble, without overdoing it. And for makeup, I kept it pretty neutral with my newest lippie obsession by Charlotte Tilbury.

 

Red Dress Boutique Review & Styling

Red Dress boutique sent me a few pieces to style from their online assortment and I couldn’t have been more thrilled! First of all, everything they sell is super cute so it was really hard for me to make a selection, but landed on the items you will see styled in this post! A huge thank you to Red Dress for partnering with me – and can’t wait to show you guys these looks!

So in this first outfit, the Red Dress piece is this sweater. I also styled it in the featured image with jeans and booties, but wanted to try it out with a skirt too and voila! I decided to mix prints with this look pairing cheetah and plaid to really tie in with this cowl neck piece. The sweater is oversized with extra long sleeves- which is perfect for me and a high-low hem so it is ideal for tucking in.

This next look is a gorgeous flowing fall floral maxi dress with long sheer sleeves and a sash tie waist. I just style this is a twist top woven bag and ankle booties to keep the look casual but what really tie sit together is the dark lip! I love a dark burgundy lip for fall and this one is perfect! This dress would be perfect to style up with sparkling earrings and heels – its just such a great piece to tie florals if you love them like I do, but want to still be season appropriate!

And lastly this dainty eyelet lace babydoll dress! Again, this burgundy shade is perfect for fall and looks great paired with prints – like leopard, this seasons hottest trend! I have added a printed belt and shoes to complete this look and styled it with the woven twist top bag.

My experience with Red Dress was nothing but the best! Their sizing is true, and the quality if the clothing is really great for the value! I also love that they stay ahead of the trends so you can be set to go with all of the top fashionistas!

Vintage 40’s Floral Vibes!

 

On a recent trip to Forever 21 I stumbled across this dress and immediately fell in love with it! It reminds me so much of the 40’s and I had to have it! The length, tapered collar, button front, tie waist and floral print all add to its charm. This dress is super lightweight and perfect for the warmer temps!

For accessories I wanted to keep this look pretty casual so I styled it with espadrille wedges (similar), my faux tortoise Quay sunnies and to tie the look together I added a bright classic red lip. Seriously I’m obsessed with this style, and will be on the hunt for more dresses with this silhouette in the near future!

Dreamy Desert Dress

While if New Mexico we traveled out to the Bisti Badlands and of course I needed a few pictures here before we started our adventuring. 😉 So this look is so light, airy and perfect for the summer and late spring. The beautiful turquoise color of the dress looks perfect with all skin tones and hair shades! I point this out because I recently dyed my hair back to its natural color and have noticed certain colors I would wear as a blonde I might not feel it looks as flattering on a brunette and vice versa. But this color is perfect for everyone for the season.

This is another dress I ordered from Boohoo and I love the boho feel of this piece. It looks beautiful with cool tone jewelry such as silvers and blues, and even shades of taupe for accessories. Here I paired it with a taupe felt hat from Jessica Simpson, this beautiful silver mesh watch from Vincera and sparkling silver rhinestone sandals. This Boohoo dress is great quality and was an amazing price so be sure to get it before it sells out if you are interested in it! I really love this dress and am sure I will be wearing it on repeat this season!

Old Town Southwestern Style

While exploring Old Town Albuquerque I wore this beautiful floral peasant maxi dress, and seriously received so many complements in it! It is such a flattering and comfortable dress! I must also add that it is totally travel friendly. The weight of the fabric is ideal as it does not wrinkle so you can literally pull it out of your luggage and put it on.

The dress was perfect for the desert climate as it has long sleeves and a breezy full skirt.

I paired this dress with a few pieces of my grandmother’s vintage silvery jewelry and simple slip-on sandals. This dress is a warm shade of navy and covered in a lush floral print which means you can wear it all day and not have to worry about changing for the evening.

This dress can be accessorized for a boho or southwestern look and is priced so well I am sure it will sell out soon! I purchased it for just over $30! – yes, that’s right, I know sounds crazy! So if you love it, be sure to order soon or you might miss out!

Crisp Whites & Denim Blues

Summer is right around the corner and nothing beats a crisp white button down look on a beautiful day! This one in particular is giving me all the vibes!! I love the extended layer hem and smart collar detailing! The top provides light stretch so it’s perfectly feminine, and will fit like a glove.

I decided to pair this look with ruffle hem cropped jeans in a classic denim shade of blue. I just love how classic denim looks with white, it makes it pop! For accessories I am wearing wedge espadrilles, these gorgeous turquoise hoop tassel earrings, and carrying my favorite summer bamboo bag!

If you are looking for these accessories, the earrings are from Sugarfix by Baublebar, which is exclusively sold at Target! Best of all, these are only 12.99! The quality is amazing and the weight of the earring is not too heavy which I really appreciate. For the bag I am carrying, this is a dupe for a very expensive bag. I purchased mine from Amazon for just over $40 so if you are interested this bag, but want it at a quarter of the price of the original version, check out Amazon! And the wedge espadrilles are from last year but I still love them and they are perfect for summer so I have linked similar for you to shop!

Black & White Striped Beach Look

As the weather here starts to warm up, I’ve got my thoughts the beachside, and with that I bring you this striped jumpsuit ensemble! This beach inspired look is so easy to wear, is super transitional, and unbelievably comfortable.

This striped chiffon jumpsuit is very lightweight and looks so crisp on. It is partially lined to the thigh so you have modest coverage while still maintaining an airy look. I paired this one piece with a straw fedora, slides, and my summer staple bamboo bag! Now I’m sure you couldn’t miss my earrings! Yes, those statement makers are GORGEOUS and under $15! They are actually from Target, so the next time you are there make sure to grab a pair!

Now if the weather is a little unpredictable, or you want to wear this look and it isn’t quite warm enough yet, you can always style it with your favorite denim jacket and that would perfectly compliment this ensemble!

Futuristic Fashion Sense

Hey Y’all! Hope your week is going well! As you may have discovered by now, I like to experiment with my fashion and try out new things so here are 2 looks I put together (before I dyed my hair) and am just now getting around to sharing with you all! So let’s start things off with this fun, sparkling, futuristic look brought to you by Shein, Lala Shoes and Covergirl!

This layered dress is super cute with the mock neckline and long sleeves, but for someone over 5’6” (I’m 5’8”) it’s a bit short, but I still wanted to create an awesome look with is so I decided to pair it with these super fun metallic glam take on combat boots from Lala Shoes which tie into the shine of the dress perfectly! The boots are surprisingly comfortable and really easy to wear!

So I also wanted to create a more wearable look featuring the same color scheme and came up with this violet crushed velvet top and studded snap front skirt! It’s super cute with a bit of edge and a ton of texture!

Now lastly for the lips I am wearing the new Covergirl Melting Pout in Ballerina and have the sparkling gloss layered over top to bring my entire ensemble together!

Let me know what you think of this look, I know it’s a little different than my normal posts but as I said I’m not afraid to be a bit adventurous with my style and share new trends with you guys!
