Blue Crush:: Mixing Textures for Summer Styles...

Hello all! Happy Friday! 

I hope you all had a great week! 

Today's post is a fun look I came up with earlier today. When planning my blog posts, sometimes I will have one look in mind -which I did today- and I put it together and end up not loving it. This can be frustrating, although many times -also like today- it ends up with a look I really love! 

Sometimes it takes some time and failed attempts but I usually end up finding something that really speaks to me! 

This particular look serves not only as a stylish summer look, but a cool one too! 

Literally!

With temps already hitting upper 80's, its very important that outfits be breathable/ventilated! 

This pleated midi skirt (seen here) from Grace Boutique, is a staple in my closet! Its so elegant and chic, I love finding new ways to style it! For today, I mixed it with a velvet top from Old Navy, and found the contrast in textures very charming. 

And, while I love the shades of blue, I wanted to throw a little bit of additional color in the mix. So I chose this Shein.com bag, for a warm, neutral balance. 

Thank you so much for reading! I hope you have a great three day weekend! 

XOXO

VillHello all! 

What a great start to the week! Yesterday we celebrated our mothers! I'm so thankful for my mother! She supports me, challenges me, and makes me think about things in a different light too. We had a great afternoon together, hanging out and eating an amazing meal. 

Later, we ventured to the park with our dogs (if you knew our dogs, that was certainly a venture! While I love them dearly, they tend to freak out at the sight of other people or animals..... sigh...) BUT they did surprisingly well! AND we saw a mini horse!! I kid you not! A mini horse!! 

Ahh, I digress! On to the post! 

About two weeks ago I went on a photo shoot with Ryan Smith or Rain World Photography. We headed up to Ballantyne Village for the shoot, which is a beautiful location. Although rain was in the forecast that day, we set out anyway. It was overcast but we made it work.

It ended up being one of the most fun shoots I've had in a while! We got some great shots of this off the shoulder LOFT dress.  It has become a summer staple piece in my closet. There is plenty of ventilation and it is easy. I recently wore it out with nude pumps for a different look. 

Thank you so much for reading and a huge shout out to Rain World Photography for the amazing shoot! 

Have a great week! =) 

XOXO

Hello all! Happy Friday! 

It has been a busy week! Today I'm running on roughly four hours of sleep. That is why today, I have been taking it easy. I mean that is what Friday is all about, right?! 

For today's post I'm sharing with you another purchase from one of my all time favorite online boutiques, shein.com. I've ordered from the site many times! What I love about them -aside from their stylish clothing and accessories and reasonable prices- is their customer service. They are really great about returns, and communicating with them is easy. Which is a huge plus for me, because sometimes that can be the most frustrating thing about online shopping. 

This particular dress caught my eye because of the fun graphic on it. It is an easy dress to wear and style. Today I kicked it up a notch with heels and some pattern play, which creates a great Friday look. Whether it be running errands or a lunch date, even a girls night out or date night. 

I also think it will be fun to pair it with tie-up flats or sneakers, maybe booties and a leather jacket -in the fall of course! I'm very excited to find other fun ways to style this dress. 

Thank you so much for reading and have a great weekend! =)

XOXO

Night of Elegance:: Oscar de la Rent Exhibit...

Hello all, and Happy Friday!

Today I have a special post to share with you! This past Wednesday, Designer Diva (Vicki) and I set out on another adventure together! This time it was to the Mint Museum to see the fantastic, Oscar de la Renta exhibit!

Oscar de la Rent is well known and very much celebrated in the fashion world for his talent and his imaginative designs that included classy day wear dresses as well as glamorous evening gowns. Coupled with his ability to evolve with the changing times and seasons -his career spanned over five decades!- made him one of the most sought after designers!

I was amazed by the display on Wednesday! It was remarkable! I really enjoyed his use of various textures, layers, and fabrics.

Most of the night, I fantasized what it would be like to wear one of these fabulous gowns. They are all so elegant, its no wonder he is a highly sought after designer! Of course, many of his designs have been worn by various celebrities, but he also designed gowns for first ladies, Laura Bush and Hilary Clinton.

When he passed away in 2014, he was remembered by countless celebrities, designers, friends, fans, and of course, his family.

The exhibit will run until early July if you are interested in checking it out!
(Psst! On Wednesday nights, it is free admission!)

I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! =)


XOXO
