Faux Fur Fun!

20121119-201936.jpg

I’ve always loved the look of faux fur because it truly looks like the real deal…but you don’t have to wear the guilt. This past weekend I went to Tempe Market Place to do some early Christmas shopping and in the Wet Seal window display there it was….the fur vest of my dreams!

What I like about this vest (shown above in the left corner) is that you can dress it down with leggings and flat combat boots or dress it up with rolled up jeans and stilettos. One of my friends that is newly pregnant asked me to post some outfits for pregnant women so here you go Ashley, I hope you like it!

You can find faux fur almost anywhere. Lately I have found the vest at the store sites listed below:

www.wetseal.com

www.bcbg.com

www.forever21.com

www.express.com

I also think this is a great look for the holiday season because in Arizona we can’t wear fur jackets because it’s too darn hot!

Fur on! <3

Gold+Mustard= Perfect Fall Outfit <3

20121116-231856.jpg

Nothing is better than going to your closet and putting on some comfy skinny jeans, a boho top (so you don’t have to suck in) and a perfect accessory that ties the whole outfit together!

The outfit shown above is just the outfit! I love the mustard color…but you have to be careful when deciding if this color is for you. This color looks great on olive and dark skin tones but may wash out with a lighter complexion. So, if that is the case I would stay with colors that compliment your tone, like coral and green during the Fall season.

I paired this top with a chunky gold necklace, that is very detailed with various textures and different chain designs throughout the necklace. This piece is great because you can wear it with a plain white cami and jeans or a button up top, tucked into a high waisted pencil skirt, to give it a completely different look.

This top is availible at www.divazboutique.com

The necklace is available at www.facebook.com/royalbowtique

Vintage Market

20121116-214942.jpg

This weekend I went to the, “Junk in the Trunk,” vintage market for the first time at Westworld in Scottsdale and had a blast! Right when I walked in I saw a sea of booths that were filled with so many different items. There were so many fun finds, anywhere from vintage chairs to vintage jewelry and coats. The market also had a very fun feel with John Mayer and live acoustic guitarists playing while my mom and I were shopping and enjoying an amazing Saturday morning in 64 degree weather.

Towards the end of the show, I came across this amazing booth called, “Unravel Me,” and as you can see from the pictures above….. Theresa’s items are amazing. Theresa is the maker and designer of all of the, “Unravel Me products” and is very passionate about her creations. She took the time to explain to me, her favorites and the most popular creations sold at the show! My favorite piece from her booth is the cupcake bonnet and scarf that you can wear 3 ways<3

When I went to her website I found out that you can buy the patterns to all of her items shown in the picture above for a great price.

For more information on Unravel Me you can go to her website www.unravelme.etsy.com or call Theresa Grant at 623.330.4436

Weekend Night Wear!

20121116-215241.jpg

Bling and leather is the perfect way to start off your Friday night. I love the combination of the gold and black leather married together.

For some states this skirt shown above would be hard to wear due to the weather, but you can pair this outfit with some black tights or even some ombré tights that start off dark at the top (usually black) and then turn into a color at the bottom (deep purple or turquoise).

I would pair this outfit with black closed toe pumps and gold bangle bracelets, along with hoop earrings (preferably gold or black).

Where you can find this outfit:

Studded Boots!

20121116-215409.jpg

Forget the heels its fall and time to give your poor feet a rest! These chocolate brown studded boots are a must have this season. What I love about the style of these boots is that you can wear them with just about anything! They look great with dark skinny jeans and a boho top, or with a free flowing dress and leather jacket.

The best part about these boots is that they are comfortable you can find them at almost any retail store. You can find the boots shown above at Nordstrom www.nordstrom.com

Must have!

20121107-201323.jpg

Pores…everybody has them but nobody wants them. I have tried everything to minimize, erase and hide them but nothing has actually worked like it said it would on the box……until Benefits Porefessional Minimizer. 🙂

After you moisturize in the am, apply Porefessional over your pores, then you can apply your everyday make up and POOF your pores are almost invisible.

Ulta Beauty always carries Benefit products with fun incentives. Check out their website this week to see what sales they have on their products <3 please let me know what you think!

Make Work Fun…

20121116-215522.jpg

Start making your Mondays fun…….with your work attire! I got this entire outfit for under $100!

The striped dress is from Wet Seal and the jacket is from Michael Kors (at a huge discount) the belt came in a pack of 3 at Forever 21 and the necklace is from Divaz Boutique.

Try to do all your shopping at the end of the month because that is when most stores do their markdowns to bring in the new items. So you will get your fund finds and a discount.

I love pairing different prints together, as well as colors! It makes the outfit really stand out. I also like that you can take off the leopard jacket for a happy hour or date after work and it looks like you went home to freshen up:)
