Unexpected Love

THE CANVAS –

Skirt : J.Crew ~ Orange Blouse : Forever21 ~ Navy Blouse : Forever21 ~ Tights : Hue ~
Boots : Unknown brand via Jolley’s ~ Purse : H&M ~ Sunglasses : Michael Kors ~
Necklaces : J.Crew, Kate Spade ~ Bracelets : Forever21, J.Crew, Brina’s Boutique ~
Rings : Vintage, Nordstrom ~ Watch : Marc by Marc Jacobs

The reason that I love this outfit is that the colors are so unexpected for a Valentine’s day theme! Granted there are actual hearts on the skirt, but I love the combination of navy blue and coral because it is different than the typical red and pink you see everywhere! I am also digging my new shoes that have the perfect touch of sparkle.
Tune in all this next week to see other Valentine inspired outfits and gift guides.
Finally I have a special announcement, I am featured as the head stylist on Lauren’s STYLELIXIR blog this week!! Check out her cute blog and all of here fashion tips here! Also join her link-up if you have a fun post or outfit to share 🙂

Blouse : H&M ~ Skirt : Zara (on sale!) ~ Tights : Hue (gray sheer) ~ Shoes : Aldo (love these!) ~
Scarf : Nordstrom ~ Purse : Tory Burch ~ Sunglasses : Ray Ban ~ Watch : Michael Kors ~
Necklaces : Nordstrom, J.Crew ~ Rings : Nordstrom , Vintage (pinky ring) ~
Bracelets : Kate Spade, J.Crew, Forever21, Brina’s Boutique

I got this scarf recently and wasn’t sure if it was something that you could only wear in October? I decided why not, and thought it would be cool to play up an eclectic vibe by pairing it with a super tight pencil skirt and pearls. Why not mix the rocker and girly vibe together!
I also would highly recommend this pencil skirt. It has an amazing fit and is tight all the way down to your knees. If you are a size xs, they have it available on-line in green and navy blue still at Zara for super cheap.

Russian Roulette

THE CANVAS –

Cape : Koo De Ker ~ Leggings : Trouve ~ Scarf : Forever 21 (old) ~
Boots : Christian Louboutin ~ Hat : H&M (similar)~ Aviators : Michael Kors ~
Purse : Kate Spade ~ iPad Case : Kate Spade ~ Earrings : Forever 21 (loving these)~
Watch : Marc Jacobs ~ Bracelets : J.Crew, Forever 21, J.Crew, Brina’s Boutique

So I was feeling a little bit like a “Real Housewife of Russia” in this outfit haha…but I’ve got to say I love the hat! It keeps you so warm and is perfect for our BELOW FREEZING weather. It is also the perfect accessory to take up to Sundance or when you are hitting the slopes.
I also got these fabulous new boots for Christmas and I am obsessed. Now I just need to learn to walk in them 😉

Green With Envy

My Week of Holiday Outfits

Outfit #2 – Dressing Up Pants

THE CANVAS –

Shirt : Nordstrom (old) ~ Satin Pants : H&M (old) ~ Shoes : Steve Madden (on amazon) ~
Purse : Kate Spade ~ Long Necklace : Ann Taylor ~ Bracelet : Monica Macha ~
Earrings : Charm & Chain (very similar, a little larger) ~ Sunglasses : Michael Kors

I saw this post on one of the many blogs I read, and I immediately put together an outfit consisting around some of my favorite Evergreen accessories. I can sometimes fall into the trap of wanting to wear red, black and white to all of my Holiday events, so I thought this was a good alternative that still looked very festive. For an even more glam look, I have been DYING over this green sequined dress from ASOS.
The gold chain necklace also helped give the outfit a little drama. Since this necklace is no longer available, you could try a ribbon or even get some gold mesh from a fabric store to re-create the look.
