BOYFRIEND JEANS, WHITE BLAZER VEST & DIY STUDDED HEELS
Happy Hump Day everyone! Earlier this week I showed you how to make these DIY studded heels… and today I wanted to show you how I’m styling them.
DIY STUDDED HEELS
I was about to toss these old black heels when I came across a pair of studded heels online that I fell in love with. They’re Christian Louboutin – can you blame me? But instead of paying around $1,300, I thought… why not try and do a DIY version? Grabbed my keys and headed to the closest Hobby Lobby for supplies and this is what I came up with…
WEDDING GUEST GUIDELINES & OUTFIT OPTIONS
Wedding season is here folks! And if you’re struggling to find a dress for all the nuptials you’ll be attending – don’t freak out! I’ve got you girl. But, instead of just offering up some of my favorite picks, I thought I’d also share a few do’s and don’ts when it comes to wedding guest etiquette.
TRIBAL PRINT SKIRT (GREAT PRICE!)
Happy Hump Day! I wore this outfit to a lady day date and it was perfect for the 105 degree weather.
UTILITY VEST & PLATFORM SANDALS
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, this utility vest is one of my favorite pieces in my closet because it’s so incredibly versatile. I’ve styled it so many different ways… but today I chose to wear it buttoned up and cinched in at the waist.
GIVE ‘EM A WINK
I have a heavy appreciation for goofy t-shirts and tiny clutches. I especially adore this “wink” tee because I feel like I’m always using that emoji (it’s my favorite next to the thumbs up and dancing ladies in leotards). I’d actually wink more in real life if people wouldn’t take it as a flirtation or a creepy gesture (sigh).
OFF THE SHOULDER CHAMBRAY DRESS / SAVE VS. SPLURGE
Hi everyone! I’m excited to finally share with you that I’m helping italist.com kick off their guest blogger program! If you haven’t heard of them – they offer designer digs at a discounted rate. (yes please!) So, no… I haven’t changed my hair back… we’ve just been holding on to these pictures for a little while now. Hope you enjoy!
My go-to navy jumpsuit
When I don’t know what to wear to an event I pull out this jumpsuit. It’s sophisticated, but fun and it really takes the guess work out of getting ready.
