OOTD: Chambray, Leopard & Colored Denim

Hey all-

One of my favorite aspects of blogging, is finding outfit inspiration. Sunday night, Emily from The Sweetest Thing posted an outfit that I instantly fell in love with. Even better, I had very similar pieces to recreate the entire ensemble! So naturally, on Monday, I couldn't wait to leave my house in this recreated amazingness. What do you think of our outfits?

Outfit Details:

Chambray & Scarf: Forever 21

Jeans: Old Navy

not too sweet. One of my faves!

The White Jeans Debate Inspired By Courtney Kerr

Hey all-

It's Friday! How has your week been? Mine has not nearly been up to par compared to last week- RVA Fashion Week. Last Thursday, I attended a show featuring local boutiques. It was so much fun. I met some pretty amazing people & had a really good time. It's so comforting to be around so many well dressed people who share the same passion for fashion as me.

When brainstorming the perfect outfit, I look to none other than my fashion muse, Miss Courtney Kerr. I am so thrilled that she updates her blog, What Courtney Wore often. It's the perfect place to draw inspo. I wanted to be fashionable (afterall I was attending a show), but also wear pieces I currently owned. I saw her post, The White Jeans Debate (yep, stole her title for my post) & I knew this was the outfit I needed to recreate. I had all the correct items- white blazer, white jeans, chambray button down, statement necklace, sparkly heels, sunnies & Louis Vuitton. I actually own a pair of pumps similar to Courtney's, but I couldn't resist wearing these gold gems- I've only worn them once in a year! What are your thoughts on white denim? How do you think my outfit turned out?

Stay tuned for more posts on RVA Fashion Week. Head over to Courtney's blog too for some outfit inspo. Have a great weekend!

OOTD: Maxi & Faux Fur

Hey all-

A lot has been going on the past few weeks. Just last week, I had another birthday, which means my blog is 2 years old now. I also signed a lease for a new townhouse, which means, I'm moving again. And I've been working like crazy. Luckily, I had the weekend off to celebrate my birthday properly.

I wore this outfit Saturday for mimosas with friend who stayed with me all weekend. I hadn't worn this dress in a while & knew brucnching would be the perfect opportunity. Unfortunately, March Madness fans had taken over every place, sooooo annoying. Like, I don't watch basketball, I just wanted a few mimosas. Brunch was fun nonetheless & I had lots of mimosas.

Anyway, what's been going on in your lives?!

OOTD: Brunch

Hey all-

FINALLY, an outfit post! I'm sure you all missed seeing what I wear on a daily basis. It actually feels really good to be sharing this outfit with you, even though it's not the greatest ensemble. I threw this on Saturday for a little trip to get mimosas. Let's face it, it wsn't brunch because I didn't eat a thing, just call it what it is.

I'd always loved an oversized sweater, but couldn't find one that I liked in person. So I took this ON sweater, which fit perfectly, put it in the wash & instead of lying it flat to dry, I hung it. &&& guess what, it stretched. I like how it's not too big, but still gives the oversized look I wantedto create.

Right before walking out of my door, I decided to ditch these pumps for tan suede wedges and threw on a scarf. For my first outfit post in a long long time, what do you think of this outfit?!

 



Fashion Show at Can Can

Last week, as part of RVA Fashion Week, I attended a fashion show at Can Can Brasserie in Carytown. This show presented looks from local stores (flyer below). It was an amazing show. The models actually walked on the bar!

All day, I complained about not having anything to wear. So when I got home, I literally threw on pieces from my closet I loved. Although, each piece is a little random, I love how the outfit turned out. What do you think?

Blazer: H&M

Sweater: Forever 21

Shorts: Charlotte Russe

Shoes: Target

Purse: Louis Vuitton

Watch: Michael Kors

I promise I'm not bored/mad/miserable. I just can't pull off the no smile in photos.

Candid. I suck at these sorts of photos. Need to work on it.

Met some more great people. RFW networking!!

Check out Natural Talent Clothing. 

Photos for all the events & shows I attended during RVA Fashion Week will be posted at CocoKouture Magazine. Don't worry, I'll be sure to post a link!

Birthday Wishlist 2012

I lost my other one. A replacement is a MUST.

I've been contemplating jumping on the wayfarer bandwagon, but Ray Bans aren't really my style. Leave it to Gucci to make a pair I actually love.

I would absolutely LOVE a bouquet of stargazers. These are my favorite flowers. Aren't they so PRETTY?!

For the record, I don't expect to get any of these. Birthdays aren't about gifts (yeah, I said it). I'm just looking forward to a nice little dinner with my friends. Pics to come because I treated myself to a birthday dress, shoes & necklace, of course.

Put A Lil Color In It

Hiiiii. I know, I know. I've been a tad MIA lately. That's only because I have finally started to have a social life in Richmond. It's so bad (well actually good) that I only made it to the gym twice last week! My week consisted of working late Wednesday, going to see The Vow Thursday, going to dinner/drinks with my coworkers Friday, heading to the Virginia Wine Expo Saturday & then spending some quality time with SOS. Busy, busy, busy. To say the least, last week was tons of fun (minus that work part) & hopefully this week will be just as awesome. Mostly, I hope I make it to the gym.

Anyway, I decided to be as colorful as possible for the dinner Friday night. Helllllooo citrine blouse & royal skinnies. I initially thought the color was a little much, but it the outfit turned out quite well.

The wine expo was soooo much fun. I got to hangout with some girlfriends I hadn't seen in a while & made some new friends. Below is a pic of all our purchases for the day. Yes, we bought a lot of wine. I only walked away with four bottles & the most amazing wine glass ever. Seriously, it says "Hokie Hottie." Buying it was a no brainer!!

Also, I've ditched my dark vampish nail polish for turquoise. I'm starting to really like color. I even switched from my usual OPI to Essie & I may be in love with it.

Welllll, I need to get back to reality & get some things done... Just in case I have another insanely busy week.

Blouse & Pants: Old Navy

Can you guess which coworker asked me if David Kors was my favorite designer?! lol (@Havana 59)

My lovely purchases from the expo. Yes, one's already opened.

5 girls.. We did a little damage.

Seche Vite & Essie Go Overboard

Also, my birthday is next month. I'm debating whether or not to try Rent the Runway. Have any of you used it? Should I rent an Herve Leger dress for my birthday pressie?!

Borrowed From The Boys: Preppy

My outfit today was inspired by, get this, the boys. Preppy ones to be exact. Since moving, I;ve noticed lots of guys taking the time to add little unquie touches to their outfits (trying to catch up with the ladies, fellas?!) There's something I really like about rolled up khakis & bow ties. I though I'd put my own little spin on this look because after all I am a very girly girl. Instead of wearing loose khakis, I opted for a skinny legging like pair and cuffed them four times. I also couldn't bring myself to sport a bow tie & decided on a statement necklace. Of course, I'd never rock oxfords or loafers, no matter how "in" they are. So pairing this look with leopard flats made it more me. I plan on styling a similar look- I'm thinking jeggings, sandles & a scarf. Stay tuned!!

Top, Pants & Flats: Target

Necklace: Francesca's Collections

In case you were wondering, I would not date a guy who dressed like this. I would simply admire his impeccable style from afar or attempt to make him my new bff. Just btw.
