    Elegant Holiday Look

    Hello Lovelies

    I absolutely LOVE dressing up (even though as I write this I’m wearing a mismatched sweatshirt, blue socks, and black sweatpants LOL)! For the holidays, I found this beautiful lace midi dress that just looked so elegant.

    I can totally see myself wearing this to the ballet or the symphony to see the Nutcracker!

    The skirt has a beautiful dark floral painted onto the silk organza fabric. It has a crystalline shimmer to the overall look of the skirt.

    The bodice is made of beautiful lace details. The higher neckline does not require any jewelry so I paired only a bold earring with this and a dainty bangle.

    My Badgley Mischka shoes were perfect for this dress with the delicate jewels.

    My photographer, Jacqueline and always seem to have fun! A lot of my photos are me laughing hugely or making weird faces!

    I’m thinking this dress would be perfect for flamenco too!

    The dress actually comes with a pretty satin sash, but the eternal problem of being a long torso girl is that my waist is six inches lower that the end of this lace bodice haha.

    I’m loving the mixing of textures this season. I actually kept this look a bit more Christmas traditional. Lately I’ve been trying more edgier styles, but I always go back to more elegant looks. I hope that your holiday season is filled with parties and pretty dresses too! Check out Stylewe for other dress options! Let me know below what you think of this look! Thanks for reading!

    Hello Lovelies!

    I am so glad to be able to share this LBD lace number with you all. Finally!  I shot this during my last trip to Kansas City, but have been sitting on this post until we are all in the full holiday party mood!

     

    This location was outside of the Grace & Holy Trinity Church In downtown Kansas City. Its such a pretty place with really peaceful gardens.

    I love the old world architecture found on these buildings in KC. I’m still looking for places to shoot like this here in Phoenix. If you know of any–leave me a comment down below!!

     

    The ribbon detail cinches your waist (at least making mine look smaller haha)!

    This gorgeous hemline is so feminine. The dress is perfect for twirling around for sure!

    Now the best part is this dress is now on sale for a lot less that when I ordered it! I will link everything below! Aren’t you excited for the holidays?!? Now I just need to be invited to a party lol!

  • Workday Wednesday

    Workday Wednesday

    Hi Babes!

    I am so happy to be able to wear pants and not be on fire lol! I love the leaves changing (ok everywhere else except in Phoenix). Even though I love getting dressed up, I am trying to have my work outfits evolve into a more comfy useful style anymore.

    I found this top on another blogger’s feed and knew I had to have it. I loved the little ruffled like cap sleeves and the thicker fabric. I ended up buying this white one and the black one. I tried on the x-small which fit perfectly, but I thought it looked too tight for work. So I took home these tops in size small.

    Can you see the fall leaves on the floor! I love the all the colors so much!

    These loose tie-pants were a find during the Nordstrom N-Sale!! And my trusty waaay overused cage shoes. I know I should get other ones, I really own like 150 pairs lol, but these are so comfortable.

    I loved walking around shooting this look. It was a bit cool that morning and felt like fall at least for an hour haha. I really like this outdoor shopping area called Park Place. Its really near my parent’s home in KC. I also appreciated the tip to shoot here by the other Kansas City blogger gals!

  • PHX Fashion Week Night 2

    PHX Fashion Week Night 2

    Hello Lovelies

    I am so excited to share with you my second night at Phoenix Fashion Week 2017. This was a great night that featured  Contemporary designers. I chose to wear a more whimsical look with my hair up in a loose undone bun.

    This dress can be very feminine and I wanted to style it a little more rock inspired.

    Its always fun running into people at these events. I love how passionate everyone is about fashion too!

    Harpreet Maan is a local Phoenix emerging designer who blends contemporary with her Indian roots. She designed her gown that she is wearing! So pretty right?!?

    Here with Cynthia Sassi from FabAZ on my left, one of Cynthia’s friends to my right and Harpreet. Cynthia was wearing a Theo Doro dress from the first line that showed this night.

    My favorite designer from this night was Nahuala . This line is from Mexico by Rosa Gutierrez who created a beautiful cohesive collection. I was so obsessed with the long emerald green dress and the sexy red sleeveless coat. Please contact me to collab Rosa lol!! I’ll share those photos down below!

    OMG this one above!

    AND this coat! So good!

     

     

    So gorgeous right!? I hope to get in contact with her soon! I’ll keep you all posted if I can connect with her about featuring these beautiful designs.

    My dress: old BCBG

    Shoes: Old Vince Camuto

    Belt: old H&M

    Earrings: Jennifer Janesko

    That’s right my entire outfit was straight from my closet for once, but for night three I collaborated with the amazing Couture designer, Christine Adar. I can’t wait to share this with all of you!

    Night Out

    Hey Babes!

    I’m so excited for holiday parties! I love anything shiny, sparkly, twinkly, well you know lol!

    This simple, but chic dress is on trend with metallics and cold shoulder cut outs.

    I liked the longer length for cooler nights, but the fabric is easy to work with and alter if you want a shorter hem. These shoes are a bit older, but I’m obsessed with them for dancing!

    I paired a statement necklace with long chandelier earrings to add even more sparkle.

    I loved shooting this dress against the modern lines of this building. I like finding different places to feature my outfits. I will link the dress below. It is still available! It is from my friend Kim’s boutique here in Phoenix and it is online! I’ll link some similar shoes so you too can go dancing haha!

  • Stand Out Florals

    Stand Out Florals

    Hello Lovelies!

    I am loving bold dark florals this fall. I saw this dress and knew I wanted to make this shoot a bit special. When I was in Kansas City last month, the architecture is so different than Phoenix, and I wanted to showcase some unique locations. I grew up and lived in KC until 2005 ,when I moved to Phoenix, but its funny how I see places so differently now since I became a blogger. I look at things, buildings, bridges, even walls differently. So many choices to shoot an #ootd!

    This dress was shot at two locations, the first being the under bridge on 12th Street going to the historic warehouse district, The West Bottoms. The second location was at the Liberty memorial, the only memorial for Veterans of Word War I.

    This dress was very flamenco inspired. I loved the movement and the way it fits, but lets talk about those sleeves!

    The West Bottoms was mostly abandoned when I lived in KC, except for Haunted Houses and one random steakhouse, that has since closed. Now it is thriving with warehouse inspired vintage shops, new restaurants, and even a wine tasting room!

     

    The shoes are amazing! The clear heel is so versatile, but actually comfortable too.

  • Bold Steps

    Bold Steps

    Hey Babes!

    I am loving the fun loose fitting pants for this season. Stripes look good wide or more narrow. Now, this time I really went BOLD for my choice. Usually these colors and stripes would not be my first choice, but I just went for it!

    The pant is more of a lightweight fabric, but they are fully lined which will keep me warm as the temperature finally drops here. I plan on pairing these with a solid black turtleneck for cooler days. Think a la Audrey Hepburn!

    This bright and sunny day was perfect for exploring the Country Club Plaza Shopping district in Kansas City.

    The fun part about visiting KC is getting to borrow my Mom’s vintage bags!

    I really kept my jewelry super simple with making the pants the focal point (as if you could miss them?!? Haha!). The gorgeous threaders are on sale now and from a local KC jewelry designer. I may have picked up a few more pieces during this trip, so stay tuned!

    Kansas City Obsessed

    Hi Loves,

    So its no secret that I’m a fan of my hometown, Kansas City. Funny thing is when I was living there, I couldn’t wait to move to a bigger city with a cooler vibe. Well, the joke is on me! KC grew up and became a hip town.

    Come on and follow me for a tour lol! No not really, I need a tour guide anymore. I feel like a tourist and want to check out all the cool spots. These Spanish Steps are located on the Country Club Plaza and have led to the McCormick & Schmick’s Restaurant at the top for years now. At least this hasn’t changed…yet!

    I love how the blue and white stripes on my jumpsuit matched the stairs perfectly! Thanks Plaza for the help with my photoshoot haha! This whole look was fun yet comfortable. I love wandering in and out of the stores on the Plaza in these heels which are so cozy.

    Here I go again claiming my stairs!

     

    I love this simple cross body bag. Aren’t the tassel details just the cutest?! An amazing surprise from the Rachel Zoe Box of Style.

    I always try to not over-accessorize. Sometimes I still might go a little too far haha!

    These earrings are by far my favorite and are by a Kansas City local jewelry designer. I’ll link her info down below!

  • Mountain Retreat

    Mountain Retreat

    Hey Loves,

    I recently spent some time, when my Mom was in town, at Mountain Shadows resort. It is such a beautiful place to visit. It has an old Hollywood feel. I love the simple lines and vibe of this resort.

    I wanted to style a look that would play up those lines and what better than my cute new pants!  This wide leg style can be so flattering. I really love the subtle stripe print, and I decided to pair a simple cork wedge with this look so as to not detract from the clean look of the pant.

    To those of you that have know me or have been following me for a bit now know that my hair is never straight haha!

    I recently got my L.V. Kiki subscription box and want to wear these modern lined earrings with this look.

    My pendant necklace is also from a previous L.V. Kiki box. Don’t they send me the best stuff?!?

    On most Friday nights, Mountain Shadows hosts a Veuve Clicquot Champagne Toast, where the bottle is uncorked by saber!

    Those mountain views are amazing! I wish my lawn looked this green lol. Please send help haha!

    I can’t wait to go back and spend happy hour there. They have live music playing most Fridays and their indoor restaurant is even dog friendly! Such a perfect idea!

  • Rebel White After Labor Day

    Rebel White After Labor Day

    Hey Babes!

    So living in Phoenix makes it the perfect place to keep celebrating summer for at least two more months. I know the rest of the U.S. is getting ready for plaid shirts, cardis and pumpkin spice lattes, but I LOVE white!

    I will continue to bring it out all year. I never get to wear white denim in Phoenix really, because well no one should wear denim in 120 degrees! Now my new beautiful white dress is more of a maxi, so I’m thinking I’ll transition it with short gray booties and a cute pink bomber when and IF it ever gets cooler here.

    When I saw this dress I knew I wanted to shoot it in Europe with a rustic looking background and an old building feel.  Since, I’m stuck at home this year I found this amazing door!! I’m hoping next summer to pack up this dress (and the yellow gingham two piece) for my summer travels!!

    These earrings arrived just in time for me to shoot this outfit! I love the almost filagree look and the chandelier style.

    I found these sunnies in a little store in Flagstaff. I love small boutiques and fun finds. I saw one of my favorite bloggers, Emily from Stiletto Beats wearing white sunnies all summer, and I have been on the hunt forever. Her pair was a bit pricey haha. I got these for like $7.50! Score!

    My beautiful choker necklace was from my Rocksbox subscription. I actually bought this one because I loved the dainty little discs and the layers!

    These shoes are still one of my favorite pair. The suede is super soft and the block heel makes it easy to wear all day! And yes they are still available.
