If you caught a glimpse of Saturday’s post, “When Life Gives You Lemons,” then chances are you noticed the grapfruit-shaped purse designed by Nila Anthony. This vibrant accessory is a stand out piece and will quickly add some pop to any outfit. Available in green and yellow, if you want to be noticed, this one is for you! Check out a few more Nila Anthony handbags currently on my wish list. This milk carton-shaped purse is a hoot. It literally looks like someone poured liquid gold over a paper milk carton, and attached a chain strap. Needless to say, I love it! In stock in gold or silver – take your pick. This lace pouch is as sweet as they come. Constructed out of a pretty pastel pink and a charming pearl strap, this gem will be a nice compliment to your spring attire. Just the right size for your essentials, rock this pouch during an afternoon tea. A large Chanel bottle…need I say more?! This hardshell clutch purse would be an exquisite accessory to go along with an all black or white ensemble. Featuring the iconic Chanel chain and leather strap, stop people in their tracks […]
Lace and fringe are two of my favorite finishes so far this season. Put them together and it is simply irresistible! With festival season underway, you have probably noticed a lot of both popping up in your favorite stores (lucky me!). You might remember the blue two-piece crochet dress from Current Clothing featured on KK and GG a couple of weeks back…let me introduce you to my most current find, a lace fringe crop top and matching bottoms. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, matching coordinates are great pieces to invest in because you get more than one look out of them – wear them together one day, wear them apart the next. In the ensemble below, I decided to wear the shirt and shorts together and get my fringe on! I accessorized with a slate gray stone necklace and a pewter clutch purse, although I must give proper credit to my taupe “Fringly” sandals. They definitely made the outfit complete! I am already looking forward to another occasion to rock this top with a pair of stone wash wide leg jeans, some chunky bangles and a floppy hat. If you’re currently obsessed with this lace fringe […]
Distressed jeans are everywhere. From dark blue to stone wash, to white denim, if you are looking for an easy way to add some pizzazz to your outfit, slipping into a pair of destroyed jeans is an easy way to accomplish just that. After finding the perfect pair of destroyed white skinnies at Current Clothing, it was time to test them out. If you cannot already tell, I am on a kick for all things neon. With the pants being so slim fit, I was looking for a top that would provide some front and back coverage. The yellow mesh sweater photographed below was the right cut and the knit composition is suitable for spring temperatures. Aside from a well matching top and bottom, I never consider an outfit complete without a statement piece. That is where these printed ankle strap sandals come into play! Featuring a muti-colored high-rise heel back, these shoes will effortlessly jazz up your attire by incorporating some great shades into your ensemble. To bring out some of those hues, I polished off the outfit with an irridescnet rhinestone necklace and my blue flash sunglasses. Too hot where you live for long sleeves and […]
Over the next few posts I am going to demonstrate various ways to rock a pair of white pants. These suckers are a wardrobe staple during the warm spring and summer months and you cannot go wrong with purchasing a reliable pair of flare and skinny white slacks. Suitable for various occasions, there is something so crisp and classy about ’em that I just cannot get enough of. When life gives you lemons, wear orange lipstick! No really, how fun is this fruit-shaped purse?! Food items are trending in the fashion world so why not ride the bandwagon?! Being a huge fan of contrasting colors, I knew this accessory would pop nicely against a white pants outfit, so there you have it. Introduce me to a good peplum top and 9 times out of ten it’ll have a new home in my closet. Introduce me to a neon green lace peplum top and it will be hanging in my closet in a matter of seconds! As you can see in the photos below, I paired this gem with my favorite white flare jeans – I always prefer a tailored top with wide leg pants. To incorporate all of […]
If you’re on the fence about adding a crop top to your wardrobe, try one out with high-waisted bottoms for your first wear. Just because it’s cropped, doesn’t mean you have to show midriff! When I came across this padded mermaid skirt I knew it was time to break one out. Great for an evening gala or date night with your significant other, replicate this outfit with a flirty a-line midi skirt from the one and only lulu*s. When I laid eyes on this structured skirt at Marmalade Boutique, I had to have it…I’m not good at resisting unique statement pieces! I loved the fit and flare silhouette and the exposed zipper down the back. Hitting right above the belly button, I decided to pair this skirt with a solid crop top. I went with a plunging neckline to break things up a bit, but a boat neck or off-the-shoulder neckline would work as well. For the shoes, I went with a pair of white laser cut high-heel sandals, though a pair of black pumps or ankle strap sandals would of been adequate. I didn’t want to overdo it with accessories, so I simply wore a pair of silver glitzy earrings, and […]
