Lookbook: Twinsies

I got the blazer and the skirt early in the summer but haven’t gotten around to wearing it until now. And then I wore the blazer twice in one week which is something I never do. LOL. The perfect summer blazer!

What I’m Wearing:

Blazer: J. Crew

Ruffle Tank: Lush (Nordstrom B.P.)

Skirt: J. Crew

Shoes: Christian Louboutin “New Simple” – seen here

Ring: YSL Arty Ring

These yellow Loubies get comments everywhere I go. Mostly “Woh, those are some bright shoes!” and I kinda want to say “Woh, you are super observant!” but I don’t. But I also don’t say anything back except just smile at them because it’s not really something that you respond with a “thank you” don’t you think?

My mom and I showed up at a party wearing practically the same outfit – pink ruffle top, poofy little skirt and brightly colored pumps! My mom and I do this all the time where we show up wearing very similar items, it’s pretty funny. It’s no doubt that I got all my style from my mom. She’s adorable isn’t she?

We pose the same too! LOL!

I get lots of sizing questions about my Louboutins so for these, I would say they are a bit small, but I still stuck with my normal size. They stretched out a bit after a full day of wearing them but they are still a bit snug.

Still obsessed with this ring. Loves it!

Lookbook: The Little Black Dress Experiment

I previously mentioned that I was one of the 31 bloggers participating in The Society Stylist’s “Little Black Dress Experiment” and here is my look!

What I’m Wearing:

Dress: Gift from Ann Taylor

Jacket: H&M

Shoes: Christian Louboutin “Bianca”

Ring: Wendy Brandes

My husband edited and put together this collage that’s why it’s a million times better than my usual lookbook posts!

Ann Taylor sent over this dress for all the LBD bloggers and when I first got it I have to admit that I wasn’t exactly excited over it. The fit was a little bit off and unflattering for my shape. I made a few adjustments, unbuttoned the buttons, pulled the collar down and hemmed the dress up a few inches. The tweed jacket was a good complement to the dress as I was going for a classy and modern look. I just love the stud details on the jacket. I don’t shop at H&M often but I think this jacket is my best find there! If you can’t tell, this was a bit Seattle themed with the Space Needle in the background and all the Seattle signage. The gray cloudy day really added to the authenticity of it! August usually isn’t this gray, I promise, we usually have such beautiful sunny summers. Not sure what’s going on here but I don’t like it!

I have loved the Diana ring from Wendy Brandes forever and when she had a sale I decided that I had to have it. It’s perfect and beautiful and a lovely every day piece. BTW, she’s having her last sale of the summer soon, check out her blog for the details.

Make sure to stop by the Society Stylist to see the rest of the bloggers and how they styled their LBD!

Contact her if you are looking for a blog makeover, she is fantastic and so accommodating as I had a gazillion changes and she never complained one bit. 🙂 I found her through the lovely Jenna who had Joy do her design as well so check out Jenna’s pretty blog too!

It looks cold in these pictures and to be honest, it was kinda. But I was sick of waiting for the sun to come out in Seattle so decided to pull out a floral dress anyway. Of course I wore a jacket when I went out but I really wanted to just wear the dress.

What I’m Wearing:

Vest: Ben Sherman

Dress: Forever 21

Shoes: Christian Louboutin

I never wear this vest, I thought that I might wear it for work but then never liked the look so it’s been hanging in my closet ever since I bought it a year ago. When I put on this dress I was thinking that I might put on a cardigan but I saw the vest hanging in there and thought that it might just work. I ended up really liking it! I think it might be my new thing vests + dresses. It adds just the right touch if you don’t want to go with a cardigan.

Lookbook: Working Girl

I work in the big bad corporate world and I’m in an industry where you don’t see much creativity in the way people dress. We don’t have a dress code at my company, so I could show up every day in jeans if I wanted to, but you know me, that’s not my style.

Dressing professional does not mean sacrificing style. I like to take items that would typically work in a corporate world but add my own twists to it. I adore this tweed dress. It’s got cute cap sleeves and the pleating down the front is just the right amount of detail. It looks great on it’s own, but it was a bit chillier that day so I put on the cardigan and then wrapped the belt (which came with the dress) around both. The patent Loubs played off the belt, which finished the look. I wore minimal jewelry since the outfit had so much detailing with the belt, the pleating and the buttons on the cardi.

What I’m wearing
Dress: Mango
Cardigan: Express
Shoes: Christian Louboutin

I’ve been on this Nicole Richie-esque braiding my hair kick. I’ve discovered that it is an easy way to keep my hair out of my face. I’m not a ponytail kinda girl so this is my way of pulling my hair back. It’s funny that I never thought of it before but I’m liking it now!
