a little bit of lace

August 30, 2012 by Julie 1:39 pm 9 Comments

I find myself wearing my lace tank over and over and over again. It is so versatile and I tend to wear it over other sleeveless tops, under shirts, and every which way. Every time I go to put it on I always wish I purchased it in every color the store offered at the time. I don’t own too many lace pieces, but this one top in particular I, quite literally, can’t get enough of. I wore it last week before a fun double date I went on. Since we were going to a casual, Mexican restaurant, I swapped out my heels for flats. Sometimes it’s nice to show a little bit of lace.

flowers in bloom

Florals are a print I don’t wear too much of because I tend to prefer an ‘edgier’ look. However, as you previously read here, there are ways to turn up the heat when wearing a floral number. I think a floral print is beautiful and feminine. The other day I was in the mood for an extra ‘girly’ look (sans ‘edge’). I paired my floral print skirt with a brown tank, cream cardigan, and some simple accessories. I picture this type of outfit perfect for a Sunday evening outdoor dinner party.

adding a little rose to your gold

May 22, 2012 by Julie 1:55 pm 1 Comment

I feel that rose gold sometimes gets overlooked. I think it’s due to people thinking it may not work with your typical silver or gold jewelry. However, this is not the case. Rose gold works perfectly in so many different cases. I think many of us run to our standard silver or gold jewels when getting ready (I know I do), as opposed to branching out to the world of rose gold. I, personally, wish I had some more rose gold pieces and below you will find a pick of what I’d like to add into my jewelry collection.
