Get your Sparkle on in these Sequin Pants

Ready, set, go! From now until December 31st is your time to shine…literally and figuratively. During the holiday season, fashionistas nationwide deck out in sequins, and sparkles. If you’ve been hiding under a rock, and you’re new to this trend, now’s the time to ride the glitter bandwagon!     As a natural sequin lover, when I came across these black hot pants, they were coming home with me. Although technically capri length, they fit me like cropped ankle length trousers…score! Featuring an exposed back zipper, pair these dazzlers with a crop top, or tuck in a traditional button down blouse. On this special occasion, I styled these pants with a white peplum button down shirt. Keep in mind, when you’re working with a statement piece, sometimes simplicity is key.     I accessorized this look with goodies straight out of this month’s Rocksbox (see promo below). The rhinestone necklace helped balance out my upper half, while the light pink Kendra Scott earrings added a sweet feminine touch. Incorporating blush back into the mix, I polished off the ensemble with my favorite metallic clutch by Urban Expressions.     Shop this Post: Top | Pants | Pumps | Clutch | Jewelry […]

Wish List Wednesday: White Elephant Designs

Crafted with love in New Orleans and Chicago, White Elephant Designs is your home to sweet personalized gifts and fun. From office supplies, linens, to kitchen and bar ware, if you’re compiling a holiday list for that special someone, consider gifting them with a White Elephant Designs creation. Here are a few pieces currently on my wish list.   Customizable stemless wine glasses…need I say more?! This durable drink ware will undoubtedly add some flair to your party decor. Adorn your glasses in monograms, playful symbols, or show a little state pride with the state and heart design. This set (includes four glasses) is crafted out of shatter-proof material, making them great for a weekend picnic or trip to the beach. And when you’re done sipping, you’ll be happy to know these pretty little things are dishwasher safe. I’m thinking a California/Louisiana hybrid set, in purple and gold (#ForeverLSU), would be the perfect addition to my game day drink gear.     Not a big wine drinker? Not to worry, pop the bubbly and enjoy a mimosa out of these adorable stemless champagne flutes.     Finally, for the beer aficionados, crack a brew and drink in style out of […]

It’s All About the Cape

Over the weekend we had the pleasure of attending “movie night” at the San Francisco Symphony…it really is as enjoyable as it sounds! Sit back and indulge while the symphony plays the soundtrack live – we watched the Nightmare Before Christmas. I highly recommend attending a show like this in a city near you. It is definitely the “young way” to appreciate what the symphony has to offer.     A sharp black on black ensemble seemed very fitting for this quirky film, so I paired a lace bodysuit with distressed jeans. Keeping the edgy vibe going, I accessorized with a floppy hat, peep-toe booties, and an ombre box clutch. This outfit would have been far less interesting without the finishing touch, the cape! The black and olive combination created just enough contrast and as a result, the lace sleeves really popped.     It’s all about the cape! If there is one chic item you are going to treat yourself to this holiday season, make it a cape. Shop this cape jacket at Current Clothing for only $58 (text to order 415-980-4772) or shop some of my cape favorites below: Plaid Cape | Olive Cape | Bodysuit | Jeans (similar)| […]
