Rose Gold Head to Toe

Last December I featured this bodysuit on the blog in emerald green. Y’all LOVED it! Specifically, it was a blog post about dressing for your spouse/significant other. Do you dress up for date night? If you answered no to this question, click here to find out why you may want to reconsider. Anyway, when I saw this statement piece available in rose gold it was a match made in heaven. I attract all things pink and sparkly, glitz and glam! And if you are reading this article, then you probably do too! We all need this bodysuit! It is an instant mood booster and a great item to have on hand for the holidays. Did I really just say that?! I CANNOT believe today is the last day in October. Anyway, there are two ways to style this bodysuit…with jeans and with a skirt. Today I am all about the latter, but refer here for jean inspo (think white denim!). When styling a statement piece, consider a monochromatic scheme. This is a very simple way to coordinate an ensemble without competing with the focal point (in this case the skirt). To me, this look resembles liquid […]

Haute Pink at Hotel San Francisco

Contrary to popular belief, there are no overnight accommodations at Hotel San Francisco. Rather, this establishment is one of the city’s hottest bars. From bright pink bar stools, gold hardware, to a striking neon sign, whoever designed this “haute” spot has a mean sense of style. But it is more than aesthetically pleasing…the cocktails are creative and the food is delicious. Pictured below is the lychee martini and $10 fried chicken off the happy hour menu. Impress your out-of-town guests and retreat to Hotel San Francisco! Dressing up for happy hour makes it even more happy! My pink pants are only $56 from Asos and available in regular and petite sizes. I am wearing the 2 petite (size up one size) and they fit me like a GLOVE. The high rise waist is ultra flattering and the flare legs will elongate the appearance of your legs. I styled them with a glitzy crop top, but I am extra and I’m proud of it! Don’t be afraid to tone them down with a sweater or classic bodysuit. Top it with a blazer for a polished 9-5 ensemble. While we are on the topic of haute items, allow […]

Tweed Houndstooth Suit

Are you an outfit repeater?! I sure am! And out of all the clothes in my closet, and the countless ensembles I showcase on my blog, it is the suits “with a twist” that I constantly re-wear! This little blue suit, this pink power suit, this floral-print suit, are great examples. In the world of Kelsey Kaplan Fashion solid black suits are not going to cut it. I have a knack for finding specialty sets. Allow me to introduce you to my new fave a tweed houndstooth suit! I hardly EVER publish articles on the weekend. In all honesty, I was afraid this ensemble would sell out faster than I could blog it. So here we are…ready for the LSU Tigers to beat the Florida Gators decked out in purple in front of a gold house. Haha. Just kidding…well sort of. This little number is too good not to share on a Saturday, and will easily carry you from the office to happy hour. Not bad for a $60 set if I say so myself! The bold lavender and blush print is unique, while the chunky gold buttons add the perfect feminine details. In my true […]

Maui Travel Guide: What to Do, Eat, & Where to Stay

I never knew anyone with as much energy as me until I met Jonathan. Good thing we are travel (and life) partners for life! Last week wrapped up our second trip to Maui. Here is what we enjoyed the most. What to Do Take in beautiful coastal views along the Road to Hana. Although the Gypsy Guide app makes it possible to drive without a guide, add Sandy Cheeks Tours to your phone STAT! Kyle will customize your tour to meet your road trip needs and desires. Not to mention he stocks the car with snacks and cold beverages. The Haleakalā National Park sunrise tour and bike ride is impressive and worth the early wake up call. Consult your hotel concierge for specific guide recommendations. Surfing is apart of the Hawaiian culture and lifestyle. Do as the locals do and take a surf lesson with Aloha Ocean Adventures Ikaika and Keoki run an awesome business and I cannot recommend this “surf school” enough! If Ikaika can get me and Jonathan to tandem surf on the first try, he can get anyone to stand up and ride the waves! Proof is in the pudding. Whether you’re surfing, snorkeling, or swimming, […]

Elevate your Mood in a Floral Suit

“Dress to Impress,” what does this phrase mean to you?! Does it mean you should dress yourself in clothes that that will impress others, or does it simply mean you should be thoughtful with the clothes you put on your body? I’m here to remind you that you can actually elevate your mood in the right outfit! Here are three tips to make that happen every time you walk out the door. Think color Yep, I said it…incorporate color into your ensemble and stand out from the crowd. Colors can subconsciously and consciously affect our mood. Think about it, when someone brings you a colorful bouquet of flowers you can’t help but smile. Well, whether it is you impressed with the vibrant outfit you put together, or the people around you, it gives off positive vibes. Tip: introduce bright hues into your wardrobe beginning with shoes and accessories. Tame your Mane “Dressing up” does not stop with the articles of clothing you put on your body. Set aside time to primp your hair. Ever since I was a little girl, bad hair days turned into bad everything else days! When you feel “put together” in the […]
