Monday's Magic


I have been asked to put my outfits on the blog from time to time and I have always been hesitant to do this but I cannot ignore the requests of my wonderful readers so here we go!
Here is what I scrapped together for today. The whole look sorta evolved from the shoes which are magical and are at Forever 21 for 22.90! I freaked out when I saw them. I am wearing my fav Paige skinny jeans, a silk scarf from Florence, an old lace Limited silk top, I little house on the prairied my hair and my earrings are Seaworthy and can be bought at Sweet Jayne for $32.00~



Happy Monday!

How to dress in Vegas


Since I just returned from a buying trip to Vegas and was horrified by what I saw... I thought it was best to show a few looks I feel are classy and Vegas style.

Here is what I would suggest for clubbing at an upscale club like Tao or Tryst
Cute sequin dress and off the shoulder 

The most simple black dress- all it needs is a rocking necklace. ASOS for  approx $45.00

Just add this Kendra Scott necklace to this black dress with some gold pumps and you are golden!

Kendra Scott 'Addy' Rose Bib Necklace

If you are going to a show like 'O' Cirque du Soleil at the Bellagio then I would wear this....

Vince Silk Georgette Tunic

OR....

Trouve Lace Tee with Jeans and some fun pumps!
I hope this gives you some guidance for the next time you visit the city of bling!!! Just remember there is always a way to be sexy and classy! I have seen one too many girls with there butt cheeks hanging out and there boobs slopping everywhere and you just don't need to go that far to feel sexy and beautiful. You should go shorter and lower than home but not too short and not too low cut. 

Loves you!

The Undeniable Denim Jacket

Emmy, Thank you for the GREAT question. Here are some of the best styles of jean jackets and where you can find them! Of course I start with Nordstrom KUT brand. When you have a tailored jean jacket like this- pairing it with a flowy dress is the best way to go. You could also wear a shorter floral dress with cowboy books in Summer! To be completely honest and transparent. Denim jackets are not my favorite look in the whole world. What I mean by that is that I don't hate them but I certainly don't wear them. Just a personal preference. I do however wear button ups that look like denim but are cloth, these are commonly known as a chambray shirt and now you can find almost anywhere. I'll show you some examples shortly.

My preferred method of wearing denim on the top half is....

Shoft-Wash Denim Shirt at Banana Republic
   

     TrouvĂ© Faded Denim Shirt

                                    

When you layer jean shirts on the top half it makes it blend in more verses being a staple piece. This allows you to try and pair with denim pants as well. Often times impossible to do but it has been done. 

If you have more denim questions please write in or schedule an appointment. Denim is a good one on one appointment walking through stores and describing washes so that you can get an idea of how the looks blend together. 

Here is one tip: If you chose a denim shirt layer as opposed to a denim jacket then you can look at the shirt as a color not a change in fabric. Wouldn't you wear a sky blue shirt with a dirty dark blue jean wash with holes? I certainly would- so why wouldn't you wear that denim shirt with that? Layering that denim shirt with a cardigan is brilliant as well. 

Now everyone lets repeat the denim pledge of allegiance. 

I ______ (name) pledge allegiance to the style world and with that will never wear a denim jacket, with a similar color denim pant on any circumstance, no matter my age, with out confirming with said stylist. Some exceptions are made with approval. 

haha!

Love you all. Can't wait for more questions!!
