    Spring Into Style

    Hello Lovelies

    I wanted to put this post together a bit sooner, but life has been craazzzy! So here it goes! A few months ago, I was asked to be a judge at this year’s Phoenix Fashion Week’s yearly Spring Into Style Show. I was so excited and knew this was going to be a fun experience, BUT it was so much better than I ever imagined.

    I, of course, saw this as a challenge to find the perfect outfit for this event. I was looking for a longer floral that had a bit of a sleeve, because it was still cool at night.  All The Prettys-Spring Into Style

    It was so fun getting to walk the red carpet right before the show. The six talented stylists who created each look based on their assigned topic. The six categories were: white on white, utility, monochrome, 80s fashion, men’s box suits and all doll’d up. Here are some fun videos of the actual show!

     

    This years’ winner was actually chosen by unanimous decision by all three of us judges. And no it did not have anything to do with the pony (which was super cute but a bit too scared for the wild crowd).

    All the Prettys-Spring Into Style

    A huge congratulations to Jazmine Nash this year’s #stylistoftheyear! Her styled-looks had so many different layers to them that I fell in love from the first to the last! Such an amazing night.

    The other unexpected thing that happened right before this weekend was that  I received a message from Brian Hill, Executive Director of Phoenix Fashion Week. Well, talk about a surprise, he let me know that the Andaz Scottsdale Resort would be hosting my stay that weekend! To say I was excited does not even cover it. So I called up my friend and invited her as my guest for the event and weekend. Some other girlfriends stopped by too lol.

    I also quickly made arrangements with my photographer, Jacqueline Trevino Photography who helped me shoot some looks at the resort and my fun videos and pics of the weekend. Let me take you on a quick tour of my bungalow!

     

    We all tried a few of these ready made in room cocktails. YES you read right! A cocktail bar in the room. I saw on another blogger that she featured these cocktails too and the company sent me my very own set for home! Amazing! Check out On The Rocks Cocktails to find some for you.

    Oh my gosh the bathroom was just gorgeous! I need a skylight in my bathroom now haha!

    I unpacked and got ready for some pool time super quick. They were having a DJ by the pool and it was happy hour!

    I was so excited to be able to shoot some looks during my stay at the Andaz. Here are some of my styled looks for Spring. The first was inspired by one of the stylist’s categories, white on white!

    During my stay we were able to Brunch So Hard lol. The Andaz has a great restaurant on the property and is near a bunch of other great Scottsdale restaurants too.

    The property is so perfect for photos that we hard a hard time just picking a few spots to shoot looks in!

    I will link all outfit details for you! I want to thank Phoenix Fashion Week for the incredible opportunity, the Andaz Scottsdale for hosting me and spoiling during my stay.

  • Fall Cozy Updates

    Fall Cozy Updates

    *** sponsored by Bealls Outlet**

     

    Hey Babes!

    Its officially Fall! So crazy how summer flew right by haha. Well here in Phoenix its still 104F, but the rest of the U.S. is cooling off and celebrating with pumpkin everything and cozy sweaters. I recently made a trip to Bealls Outlet so I could pick out some new fall items for my San Diego vacay. Now I know it is probably warm in SD for some people, but anything below 80 degrees and I NEED layers. So here are my outfits that I found. Oh and the best part is that I spent less than $75 total for five new pieces!

    All The Prettys--Bealls

    The first piece I found was this oversized soft pink sweater. I sized up to a medium for a looser fit from my usual small. I love that the back is just slight longer than the front too!

    All The Prettys--Bealls

    I had my own skinny leg jeans that I already had sitting in my suitcase for the trip and found the gray stone chain cross body bag at Bealls too!

    These black suede like booties are also a Bealls find! I have been looking for new low heel boots to do a lot of walking. You know when you are on vacation ya will walk!!

    I love exploring Ocean Beach and popping in and out of the local shops. Hey even stopping at every Sushi place known to man lol (sorry this Kansas girl is not into it) was so much fun. We later walked down to the boardwalk and got to hear some guys play some blues while we sipped on our Pink Drinks!

    It was just a little windy! Oh and by the way my hair was curled every day and looked like beach waves in ten minutes no matter what!

    The black booties have these really pretty laser cut-outs and are so comfortable.

    I found the most perfect rose gold drop earrings also during my Bealls run!

    All The Prettys--Bealls

    The next day we explored some of the local streets in OB by checking out the graffiti art and the Farmer’s Market later that afternoon!

    All The Prettys--Bealls

    This long marbled cardigan was the perfect fall addition. In the direct sun it can get warm still, but if you walk in the shaded areas….well Brrr haha!

    All The Prettys--Bealls

    The booties were perfect with this outfit too and even a fall colored swing dress that I already have in my closet would look cute. Oh and these booties also come in open toed, but with a bit taller block heel if that is your preference.

    The OB farmers market is loaded with flower vendors which is my favorite! San Diego is a huge growing area for fresh flowers in the Southwest. I loved seeing all the fall colors.

    I may have picked up some gluten free goodies while I was there lol. Did you catch that cream filled chocolate eclair!? I am still so excited with all of my Bealls finds. Like I said earlier, I found all the new items for less than $75. I gladly accepted the challenge as you can see!

    Hey Babes!

    I recently had a fun escape to Cottonwood, AZ. Its a great town with a retro main street filled with cute shops and great restaurants, but best of all wine tasting rooms!

    I wanted to be comfortable but cute. So I chose my new demin shorts with this pretty eyelet top!

    The jewlery was sent to me by Charming Charlie and I loved all the picks. The mint green stud earrings and the silver and gold bangels are so versatile. I love the oversize pink agate stone! This is a necklace I would not have chosen myself , but I LOVE the style now.

    The dainty bangles are so darling, and they have printed sayings on him ” live what you love”.

    The mint green stone post earrings are so pretty and can be styled with several outfits.

    The straw festival hat is perfect for a daytrip or a country concert!

    Cottonwood’s main street is lined with vintage shops. I found the sweetest gold clutch purse–very retro. Cottonwood has the best small town feel.

    The back detail on this eyelet top is my favorite part. ( I may have accidentally washed it with my new jeans and it is currently ruined (insert crying)).

  • Gingham for Summer

    Gingham for Summer

    Hi There!

    Summer style in the desert can be tricky. I am always freezing in the exaggerated A/C of Phoenix, AZ haha. So I am always on the lookout for cute tops that I can pair with white denim. I am so loving the gingham trend that I am seeing everywhere right now. I love it in blue, red or yellow! I found this top, which is technically a cold shoulder (yes I cheated on my first love the #OTS top haha).  But, LOOK it also has gorgeous statement sleeves!

     

    I featured this top on my summer wishlist SEE HERE awhile back and finally ordered it. It is so much prettier than I had thought. I am in love with it!

    I grabbed a pair of skinny white denim and my favorite island weaved bag (courtesy of my sister Janell’s travels), and I met my friend, Siara for a fun morning at the Montelucia resort here in Phoenix.

    I love this area of the Montelucia. It is a pathway right outside the Joya Spa that feels right out of the Secret Garden novel.

    I am loving this cold shoulder top so much and you can see more just like it on the link below, including this exact top down below. Also there is a special code for my readers! So cool!!

  • Spring Pastels

    Spring Pastels

    Hi!

    I’ve been so excited about the cooler weather here in Phoenix. It seems we get only two seasons (cold and hot) here instead of four. I feel like I miss out on some cute trends because it gets so blazing hot here so fast. One trend I was happy to wear this Spring is pastel pants. In this case, pink denim pants.

    Mine are actually a super lightweight corduroy fabric. I wanted to feature the pink pant as the main focus and so I styled this with black instead of another pastel color. Ya know avoiding the whole rainbow sherbert look haha.

    I paired these long boho earrings with a real simple necklace. Of course my obsession with hats continues lol.

    So this was a funny day when after I was pretty rain-soaked, but we just kept shooting outfits. My hair was beyond natural frizzy curly haha. I know that any minute it will be back to 115F degrees here. In the meantime I will wear my cute pink pants!

    Hello Loves!

    I am super excited to share this outfit with you. I had been seeing a lot of gals wearing white jeans lately. My mom had taught me no white before Memorial Day or after Labor Day lol. I becoming a bit more of a fashion rebel nowadays haha!

    This fun top is actually a one shoulder top. I love the silky feel of the fabric. It is an online only piece, which can sometimes be tough to choose. I ordered this in a US size 6 according to the descriptions. It was actually way too big. I wanted to make sure the sleeves wouldn’t be too short (pet peeve of mine). I think a size 2 would have fit perfectly, but oh well another item for the alterations lady.

    I really loved the modernistic collar area. I styled this top with my new Jennifer Janesko earrings. She is a local Kansas City modern jewelry designer. I am obsessed with these sleek long bar threaders she gifted me. I will link my exact pair down below!

    This outfit’s accessories have tons of unique details. Check out this clutch and the metal border.

    Hi Loves!

    I am back with a new post with Jord Wood Watches . They contacted me to share that they had designed a new series, the Conway.  This series is actually a men’s series for the company, but I just loved the dark sandalwood color and could totally picture incorporating it into my wardrobe!

    I really love the darker wood on this style. I found that I could wear the watch with a pair of ripped denim or style it with a cute dress.

    St. Patrick’s Day Fun

    Hi There!

    I know it may seem a bit weird for this Kansas City girl to love St. Patrick’s Day, but I do. It was always so much fun to skip school and go to Crown Center area to watch the parade.

    Kansas City held the title for the third largest parade in the U.S. for years. As we got older you basically called in sick to work and pub crawled the whole day after the parade lol.

    This fun top is right on trend with the cold shoulder look and I really loved how super soft it is. I styled it with a loose pair of boyfriend jeans (ok they are too big on me now so they are more loose than normal lol) and my gray converse.

     

    This shoot was a lot of fun with the wild weather we had that day, but it all came together, even if my hair sort fell apart haha.

    This top is available here locally in Phoenix or online woo hoo! Check out her boutique for the cutest things everrrr. So snag your St. Patty’s Day t-shirt before March 17th or you might get pinched!

    Cozy Casual

    Hi Loves!

    This cute oversized sweater is perfect for this weekend’s weather. It randomly got cold again and really rainy. I am loving this loose fitting look which is not typically what I wear. I love this soft pink color too.  A lot of my recent looks have been brighter in color, but I find I like to change it up. I’ve never just had one look or one style or dressing. I like to wear something depending on the occasion or event.

    This sweater has the look of a traditional cable knit sweater with a larger v-neck. It can be worn slightly off the shoulder too. I styled this sweater really simply. I found a well fitted pair of gray skinny jeans and chose a pair of almost oatmeal colored booties.

    I wanted to keep the jewelry very delicate and simple. I didn’t want to over accessorize since this was a casual comfy look. I did add these sunnies for interest, well ok mostly because they are prescription and this way I don’t trip lol.

    This outfit came together due to the cold weather. I LOVE getting all dressed up everyday, but when I”m cold I need to feel cozy and casual. Let me now below what item you bring out when you are cold!

  • Pink Floral Blouse

    Pink Floral Blouse

    Hi There!

    I am super happy it is a new year with new beginnings. I’m find myself picking outfits that make me feel lighter and express the fresh year ahead. I recently found this gorgeous pink floral blouse and thought about styling it for work, but then decided to go for a more casual street style look. I paired a cognac faux-leather jacket with stonecolored booties to off-set the super feminine look of the blouse.

     

    I picked up this cream colored straight leg jean this past summer, but of course it wasn’t cool enough to wear here in Phoenix. I am super happy I bought them, because as everyone now knows I am crazy lately about well placed zippers as accents!!

     

    I kept the jewelry pretty simple so that they didn’t over power the floral print. This one-piece long necklace was a steal, a Black Friday find for $10!

    This day was perfect, the sun had shifted a bit and the sun was peeking over Camelback mountain. As you can see the light made my hair even more red lol! Hope your New Year has started off great!!
