Latest Stitch Fix Review & Giveaway!

June 16, 2017

Latest Stitch Fix Review & Giveaway!Hello, loves!
This month’s Stitch Fix review is extra special because I’ve partnered with them for a giveaway! More to come after all of the details of my most recent fix, and spoiler alert, it was a GOOD one 😀

My stylist thought I would love this pair of colored denim.. And she was right! They fit well and actually pair really nicely with solids and print tops. I didn’t notice they are “cropped” which for this pair means just a touch above my ankle. I’ve had this issue before with cropped pairs, that it doesn’t look intentional, so I cuffed these up a bit.
The top is definitely up my alley as well, combining some of my favorite things… Floral print, polka dots and lace! It was tiny bit snug around my hips, but nothing too uncomfortable to stop me from wearing it.
Jeans, $78 and top, $48, kept.

See, these jeans pair well with so many things! I was super excited to pull out this embroidered, dolman-sleeve cardigan, right up until I noticed the long sleeves, eek! It’s 96 degrees outside right now, so I will have to reserve this piece for cooler nights or bring it back out around fall. Still a keeper though, because it’s just so cute!
Cardigan, $58, kept.

A $28 light layering piece in a cute print, come on! This kimono I knew I was definitely going to keep. I could wear it over a black tank dress, with a black tee and jeans, or even over my swimsuit. Such an easy “third-piece” item.
Kimono, $28, kept.

Last but not least, this elevated basic grey top. It does look kind of plain from the front, so I added a lovely (and sparkly!) statement necklace to jazz it up a bit. I love the knotted detail on the back and can see myself pairing it with a little lacy bralette peeking out as summer progresses, or when fall comes around again, a vivid print scarf.
Top, $38, kept.

All in all, I kept… Everything!
I was super happy with this fix.. From the fit of the items, to how well they suit my clothing personality, and the price points were very reasonable for me.

CONTEST ENDED!! Now on to the fun stuff! I’ve partnered with Stitch Fix to offer one lucky winner a $50 gift card towards a fix! Keep it for yourself or give it to someone as a gift, although you know what I would say! To enter, you just need to fill out a Style Profile and then come back here to comment “done!” That’s it! The best part is, all existing Stitch Fix members will be automatically entered to win, as long as they comment “done” below! We will be checking to make sure that a profile has been filled out, so if you did it a while ago, make sure to edit to fit your current preferences. This contest will run until 6/25/17 at 5PM PST and the winner will be chosen at random and announced via email shortly after.  Good luck, ladies!

Pastels & Snakeskin

June 3, 2017

DFT- Courtyards & Sidewalks - 105 Hello, loves!
I hate to admit it, but spring is coming to a close, and we’re already seeing glimpses of a super warm summer ahead. Looking ahead, I envision lazy days, spent lounging around a friend’s pool, drinking beer or fruity cocktails, suffering a half hour in line just to get some tasty ice cream (a la minute, tryyyy it), and working out at 5 am in the dark, simply because it’s exhausting to just walk outside after 10AM.
Until then, I’m still rocking the soft pastels, feminine vibes, and my favorite of the season, bomber jackets. This time around, I wanted to pair the softer tones of blush and baby blue with slick black denim and snakeskin. I love mixing super girly pieces with more edgy ones, and I think these snakeskin pumps are the perfect accessory to tie everything together. Hope you enjoy the look!

Mixing Denim

May 26, 2017

Mixing DenimHello, loves!
It’s National Wine Day, and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t currently sipping on some Syrah right now. Red wine has longtime been a favorite of mine, and after the day I had, I was planning on coming home to a glass (or two), after work regardless of the “holiday”. Whew, it was bonkers today at the urgent care. It seemed that people today were especially grumpy, in a hurry, and overall so rude! Thankfully, I was working with someone who has a wonderful sense of humor, so we were doing our best to take things in stride.
Moving on to spring fashion, I wanted to talk about some of my favorite denim pairings! I’m wearing here one example of mixing denim, colored bottoms with a jean jacket. The look is playful, casual, and great for this weather. A fun outfit for spring and going in to summer is a white denim top or bottom mixed with a faded denim piece. I love the idea of a little pale blue denim skirt paired with a white tank and white denim jacket.
Another classic look is to pair a lighter chambray-like button-down with slightly darker jeans. I love how simple it is, but give a pulled-together vibe. With sandals or a pair of sneakers, it’s casual for brunch, and with shiny heels and a bold necklace, it’s perfect for a not-too-fancy date night.
I used to be so scared of mixing denim, for fear of that dreaded “NOT” label that some magazines used to put on the overly loose (or tight), same color outfits of the past, but I think starting off with two completely different colors is a perfect “gateway” outfit. Here’s to conquering fashion fears and exploring new ways of styling!
What’s a fashion fear that you’d like to try out? Jumpsuits? Asymmetrical hemlines? I’d love to hear!

Casual Boho Style with Ellie & Adair

May 23, 2017

Casual Boho Style with Ellie & AdairYou guys, this top.. It’s giving me all of the casual boho feels! It’s currently on sale right now at Ellie & Adair, and if you use code “VIP15”, it’s under $25!!
I’ve found that my style is constantly evolving, and is quite difficult to pin down in words, but I think that there are definitely hints of boho chic that work their way into my looks quite frequently. From floaty dresses to crochet and embellished touches, to layers of mismatched necklaces, I love infusing a bit of that carefree look into my style.
Elements of boho style can be found in many of the on-trend items for spring and summer, such as fringe, embroidery, and tassels, along with textures of crochet and raffia. I’m loving a light cardigan with embroidered patches, a breezy maxi dress with a crochet-back, and the top here, adorned with fun tassels that tie in to a bow to play with the look a bit.
