Hey Loves, I hope everyone enjoyed a fabulous long weekend, and had a chance to celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. yesterday!  I had a nice long weekend relaxing at the beach.  Since most people are back to work today I’m providing style inspiration for a cape that’s befitting for the office. The dramatic silhouette of a cape is designed with everyday wearability making this a fun and essential piece to own.  Capes are elegant and really are very versatile.  I wore this warm layer over a crisp white shirt and trousers, but this stylish piece can also be paired with almost any outfit including your go-to weekend denim.  The flexibility of capes make them an indispensable staple to your wardrobe you can wear again and again.   Photography by:  Em Grey Photography What I Am Wearing: //Wool Houndstooth Cape// Vintage //Trousers// Carmen Marc Valvo //Tartan Pumps// Tellen (To receive a New Member Exclusive offer to Buy 1 Get 1 Free – 2 Styles for $39.95, use my special link here – JustFab) //Handbag// Vintage   Shop This Look: JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.

I’m going to take a break from my Cape series and just scream “I’m seriously in love with this long sleeve tunic from The Flourish Market!!!” After seeing at it, can you blame me? The colors in the tunic are rich and vibrant, and make me happy every time I wear it.  As you can see by my expressions, I’m really feeling myself in it! 🙂   In addition to the color, I love the material because it’s extremely soft and comfortable on my skin.  The loose fit and flowy design allow me to not have to be confined on the days I just want comfort. Last but not least, it’s so easy to style because it’s versatile.  Although I paired it with a long vest, you can also layer it by wearing a longer top underneath.  The possibilities are endless!  That exactly why this tunic has quickly become my staple top of the season. The Flourish Market is an online boutique, as well as brick & mortar store in beautiful Downtown Raleigh, NC.  They’re all about spreading dignity across the globe by partnering with 32 brands that work all over the world, providing dignified jobs and fair wages to inspiring artisans and makers in vulnerable communities. I absolutely LOVE what they are all about, and can’t say enough great things about this business!  Check them out and let me know what you think.

Happy Monday Beauties! If you experienced snow over the weekend I hope you’re staying warm and enjoying it.  Today I’m continuing my Cape series with a head to toe winter white ensemble, topped off with a glamorous floral print cape.  I think it’s the perfect time to brighten up our wardrobes in this dreary weather. If you’re still stuck on the fashion rule of not wearing white after Labor Day, please throw that old idea out of the window!  Personal style is what YOU decide YOU like, combined with what suits you, and it doesn’t matter what season it is. White in the winter has always been one of my favorites because it’s unexpected, sharp, crisp and classic.  In this inspirational look, the vintage cape adds the right amount of texture and pop of color. So dig your white out of your closets, and put them to good use this winter!

The New Zorro

Last week I started my Cape series where I’m featuring various capes through the end of January.  My goal is to provide style inspiration on ways to wear capes.  Although some people think of capes as a trend, I don’t view them that way as I wear them all the time.  Today’s feature is yet another vintage cape which I paired with modern over-the-knee boots and a wide-brimmed felt hat, giving this look a rebellious edge. This casual look is one of my favorites for fall and winter.  Just a basic black cape, leggings, and boots make it easy to recreate.  With a cape like this the possibilities are endless, and this can go casual or into the evening if you would like.   Photography by:  Sharon Bui   What I Am Wearing: //Wool Cape // Vintage (Similar here and here //Felt Hat // JustFab //Houndstooth Leggings // bebe //Over The Knee Boots // (Maran) ShoeDazzle   Love, The Ultimate...
Ringing In The New Year With Bells

Ringing In The New Year With Bells

Hey Loves! I hope everyone is having a wonderful start to this new year.  I rang in the New Year with bell sleeves! Statement sleeves make such an impact.  Since they are the focus, there’s no need to go overboard by pairing them with anything else that will compete. I styled this bell sleeve turtleneck with a long suede pencil skirt, making it the perfect casual look for new years day spent with family, watching football and eating a traditional new years meal.  This trend is sure to turn heads and is appropriate for any age. Here’s a closer look at the details… Photography by:  Sharon Bui What I Am Wearing: //Bell Sleeve Turtle Neck // Takeout (Vintage) //Suede Skirt // Loft //Louisa Floral Print Multi Colour Ankle Boot // EGO //Handbag // Old   Shop This Look Below: JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.
