I’m excited to be collaborating with Lesouque today. Lesouque is a carefully curated marketplace of one-of-a-kind pieces from independent designers. Growing up in Turkey, founder Gokben Yamandag always had a keen desire to introduce the talents of her home country beyond its borders. Her initial idea has quickly evolved to include pieces from designers and artists from other countries and cities she has lived and visited – from London to Austin, Copenhagen to Mumbai, Paris to New York and most places…
Off the Shoulder Dress
May 25, 2015Happy Memorial Day everyone! I hope you are enjoying your long weekend. Russ and I actually didn’t have anything planned, which is good because it has been raining nonstop around here. I’ve really enjoyed having a low-key weekend. I made macaroons, something that I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. We had an impromptu dinner with friends. Aren’t those always the best?! Other than that, we did a lot of Scandal watching. Anyone else a fan? We recently…
Matching Separates + Giveaway
May 20, 2015I have been loving all the matching separates lately. Automatic cool outfit + pieces you can combine with other things = win. You know my love for stripes, so this short and top set from Sage Threads & Co. was the perfect option for me. Sage has a ton of great things for spring. Besides the matching separates outfit I am wearing, some of my other favorites are this top and skirt set, this blush duster/trench, this dress, and this pair…
New Kicks
May 18, 2015Happy Monday! Hope you all had a great weekend. Russ and I went to see my niece in her first ever ballet recital. Let me tell you, there is nothing cuter than a bunch of three and four year old kids doing ballet. It was so much fun! I’ve been loving the sporty trend lately. All the awesome sneakers people are wearing are just too fun. I won’t lie, I’ve been wanting a pair since I saw Damsel in Dior and…
Weekend Casual
May 8, 2015Well it’s official, I have finally found the perfect striped tee (only $13) to complete my favorite weekend casual look. It’s slightly oversized, has thin stripes (my preferred type), and is a thicker material. I’ll be living in it on the weekends with my favorite ripped skinnies and espadrille sandals. These beauties are only $20 and come in brown and black too. Maybe I need another color… What’s your go-to weekend casual look? I’m especially excited about this weekend’s activities because they…
The White Jean Debate
May 1, 2015The white jean debate. I’m not talking about whether or not it’s okay to wear them before Labor Day. I’m over that. I mean whether or not to wear them at all. In the blogging world, they seem to be all the rage. I love how everyone is wearing them. They look so great with colored shirts I don’t like as much with regular denim (cobalt, I’m talking to you). But for the life of me, I could not find…
Navy Romper
April 29, 2015You guys, I’m so into rompers and jumpsuits lately (evidence here and here). I am obsessed with this long sleeved navy romper from The Shopping Bag. It fits perfectly, and rompers can sometimes be tricky, so that’s saying something. The feel of it allows it to easily be dressed up or down. The Shopping Bag was also kind enough to send this pretty silver bangle to accessorize with. This outfit made for the perfect Saturday attire to run errands and have…
Put A Bow On It + Monday Mingle Link Up
April 27, 2015How great is this black and white bow dress from Oasap (only $26)?! I was immediately drawn to the color (you know me). Add a bow and scallop hem, I’m sold. So many good things in one dress. I also switched out my sunglasses through Ditto’s Endless Eyewear Program for this ahhhhmazing Karen Walker pair. If you missed my first post about the program, you can catch up here. Basically you pay $19/month for access to any pair of designer sunglasses you want…
All About Accessories
April 22, 2015I’m all about accessories lately, and I have been thinking about just how much difference accessories make in a look. You can have the same outfit, take my jeans and pj inspired shirt (on major sale) for example, and pair it with sandals and a denim jacket for a totally different outcome. I went with these Retro Super Future sunglasses from Ditto, this awesome JLynn necklace, a chain bag, and heels. Sidenote: I am obsessed with this necklace. The stone is so pretty.…
Blogger Nation + Spring Neutrals with LuLu*s
April 20, 2015Welcome to my new site, Straight A Style! I hope you like the new design and name. Today is the sixth and final week of Blogger Nation, and I have loved every minute of it. These other five ladies are so fabulous. We are going out with a bang and featuring spring neutrals with LuLu*s. Neutrals have been such a hot trend this season, whether it’s black and white, all white, blush, or any of the other great combinations. You know…
