Swingy Floral Top & Lace-Up Wedges

March 29, 2016

Swingy Floral Top & Lace-Up WedgesHello, loves!
Today, I want to talk about one of my new favorite companies. Well, to be honest, I’ve been a member of JustFab for a while now, but haven’t really purchased much until recently. I’ve had not great experiences with companies like these before, the monthly membership for clothing & accessories type. Fabletics was so touchy with quality and sizing, Jewelmint started sending items that totally weren’t my style and would fall apart after only a few wears… Anyway, I decided to give JustFab another chance after catching glimpses of cute shoes and bags that other bloggers or influencers were wearing.
I’ve been really impressed with the quality of the shoes especially. From these 90’s-tastic platforms to on-trend lace-up flats to these gorgeous laser-cut wedges, all pairs I would have expected to pay more than $40 for. The flats I’ve seen from many other brands at upwards of $200, and these are comfy and cute. For my next purchase, I’ve got my eye on these comfy faux suede, stacked heel sandals. So on trend right now, and just $40 with free shipping.
For my look today, I just wanted carefree, unadulterated springiness. Floral prints are a give in, but I’m loving these vibrant blue tones, paired with neutrals in the sandals and clutch.

What do you think of subscription apparel & shoe companies like JustFab, ShoeDazzle, Fabletics, Elizabeth & Clarke, StitchFix etc.? Do you think that you end up sacrificing quality for convenience? Or do you like trying trendy, seasonal items for less than you would find at a brick & mortar store?

Valentine’s Day Gift Guide

February 5, 2016

As much as I’d love to be one of those people who thinks Valentine’s Day is overrated, a commercialized non-holiday for corporations to make money, etc., I’ll admit I’m a total sucker for it. Everything heart-covered, pink & red decor, and the romantic fuzzy feelings I get from seeing flowers, candles, and a gorgeous dinner with the one I love.. Count me so in.
I wanted this Valentine’s Day gift guide to be full of things that I would absolutely love to receive. I also didn’t want to add anything in that would require your Valentine to guess sizes. These gift ideas work for your any of your “Gal-entines;” your best friend, your sister, your girlfriend, or anyone you want to share some love with this February 14th.

Fringe Binge

October 2, 2015

DFT-Club Sh_t Choices31 Love love love this fringe kimono! It has amazing colors throughout the pattern that allow for some great shade pairings.. a teal bag, purple and blue bracelets, orangey-brown boots.. And is an ideal layering piece for making the transition from summer to fall. Kimonos can easily add that “third-piece” finishing touch when worn with a tank and shorts, a shirt and jeans, or leggings and a slim-fit tunic.
