I love wearing blue & navy or  pink & red (as in this case) together. I think it adds depth to an otherwise simple outfit. Do you feel the same?

Yesterday I wore one of  those dresses that make you almost giddy and you kindof wish you could wear it everyday. I call them “cartoon dresses” because they become contenders for what you would want to be wearing if you were animated and forced by the confines of some illustrated sitcom to wear the same thing everyday (sorry if I sound a little crazy, I’m getting married in 10 days!).
I love it so much but it is vintage and slightly fragile so shapewear must be worn in the event that a button flies, the last thing I need is a boob slip at work…

Yesterday I wore these cream high waist pants with an ivory blouse. I love this look because it’s sophisticated but still shows off curves.

For last Friday, which was casual, I wore some of my favorite jeans, a treasured vest and super tall heels. I hope you had a fun weekend!

I loved the outfit I wore yesterday. I really felt feminine and ladylike.  This is the kind of look I prefer: a shift, a huge bun, strappy shoes. I was extremely proud of my bun. Would you believe I didn’t know how to tease it this time last year? I have to share that I sent a pic of my hair to Erika Bearman (OscarPRGirl) and she tweeted back “it’s major” totally made my day…

What I Wore: A Charming Mix

Yesterday I wore one of my favorite accessories: a lace collar necklace. I love, love, love the idea of detachable collars but find them hard to wear in reality. Even though they are so fun! Paired with a studded belt, I thought the look turned out nice.

This dress is one of my favorite thrift store finds. It sortof looks brocade and is the nicest shade of marigold. Without a belt it’s a sack so a cinched waist takes it to the next level.

I think that jewelry has a higher power. Whether it’s because of the story behind it, where you were when you found it, who gave it to you or how it makes you feel when you wear it. Occasionally, I like to make an outfit all about the accessories.
