Anthropologie Top & Black Skinnies

February 21, 2016

DFT- Lipstick Picks - 13I’ve been asked before where I would shop if I had an endless budget for my wardrobe. The store that always flashes to mind is Anthropologie. They have such a gorgeous collection of printed dresses, embellished blouses, midi skirts and fancy footwear (not to mention their home décor!), I don’t think I would ever get tired of shopping there. Spending $328 on a dress isn’t really where I’m at right now in life, just being honest, so I rarely walk out with a shopping bag after a lap around the store.
The one area where I really shine though, is finding a deal! I recently (like last week!) found some amazing pieces on the Anthropologie website, including this crochet-neckline striped/floral tee. Yes, there’s a lot going on, but in a black & white palette, it totally works. Keeping it simple with black skinnies and ankle-strap flats, this is the perfect casual chic look I’ve been gravitating towards. Read on for the rest of the outfit and my picks from the sale!

I also used Raise to purchase a gift card for Anthropologie at a discount (and used a $5 coupon code on top of that!), AND the sale was on sale. This top ended up being about $20!

Oui Non with Le Tote

September 13, 2015

DFT- Groves and Oak Glen02
I’ve started a new rental service called Le Tote, which I have to say I’m really liking so far! If ya don’t already know, Le Tote is a subscription service that allows you to add items to your “closet” and select 3 clothing and two accessories-type items to receive per shipment. Once you’ve gotten your use out of the goods, send everything back and choose the next set. If you’re interested in trying out the service, you’re welcome to use my link, Le Tote. You get $25 off your first month, you can cancel any time, and I get $15 for you signing up. Transparency is my thing, as I wouldn’t recommend a service I haven’t personally used and enjoyed. That being said, I really like the items I selected.. This flippy floral skirt was super fun to twirl around in. I also received a girly nude bag with gold hardware that I LOVE, jade faux-wrap dress (too big on me), olive midi skirt (could not for the life of me figure out what to pair with it), and this gorgeous gold chain and emerald beaded necklace. There were obviously some highs and lows in this set, (mostly highs), partially because I didn’t consult the size chart 😛 Either way, I’m greatly looking forward to my next shipment. I’ve been eyeing this black and white striped top and a couple of items from House of Harlow, which I will surely be photographing soon!DFT- Groves and Oak Glen06 DFT- Groves and Oak Glen05 DFT- Groves and Oak Glen11 DFT- Groves and Oak Glen09 DFT- Groves and Oak Glen03 DFT- Groves and Oak Glen12 DFT- Groves and Oak Glen01T-shirt / Best Society // Skirt / Noir (Le Tote) // Sandals / JcPenney (similar) // Necklace / Clement (Le Tote) // Crystal bracelet / The Crowned Crane // Cage bracelet / Nectar Clothing // Clutch / vintage / Sunglasses / Nasty Gal (similar)

Throwback Thursday

September 4, 2015

DSC_0169I knew I wanted to wear this fluid ASOS maxi skirt for this shoot but when I started styling it, I found myself gravitating towards a look I’d seen many times before.. Pretty much what was hot amongst fashion bloggers a year ago! The Old Navy cutesy quote t-shirt, the statement necklace, and the sequined clutch. I realized I’d never gotten in on the fun and posted a look of my own!

Besides being comfortable and a bit cheeky (ha!), this look even has a hint of sex appeal, thanks to a thigh-high slit in the skirt. I don’t mind that it’s not the freshest or trendiest ensemble out there because it’s still cute and perfect for a Sunday brunch, which is exactly where I wore it after these pictures were shot 😉
