This past weekend, I took some photos for my friend Emily and her family. In turn, they took some of Russ and me. Besides being a lover of all things photos and documenting life through them, it’s that time when we all start thinking about Christmas cards. Even as a fashion lover, I find outfit planning for photos a little intimidating. I mean, only everyone we know is going to see this?! Last year around this same time, I styled some…
I’m so excited to be sharing this post with you! I’ve long been a fan of GiGi New York, and I am thrilled to have my first bag from them. I loved the “poppy” color the All in One Bag is now available in. Isn’t it such a happy red? I know I’ll be pairing it with a lot. GiGi uses high quality leather, and it is very evident in their bags. I also love that you can add your monogram!…
I loved this J.Crew skirt the second I saw it. Truth be told, I’ve been on a little bit of a midi skirt kick (here, here, and here). When the weather starts to get warm, I’m all like “where are my skirts and dresses at?!” Midi skirts are so great because they don’t leave you all worried about showing too much thigh. And they are comfortable. Back to this J.Crew one. I mean, it’s a midi, it’s stripes, it’s neutral…
You all know my obsession with black and white. This white Oasap skirt (only $18!) and top (only $25!) fit right into my wardrobe and will be very versatile. Here’s the best part: the black bow on the top is interchangeable and comes with a white one as well. How cool is that? It’s like two shirts in one. I loved the layers in the skirt too. I wore them together to church on Sunday for a white on white look. It’s…
First, I want to say that the blog revamp should be live on Monday barring any hiccups (fingers crossed)! Woo hoo! Special thanks to Kersten and Carlos from Speakeasy Market Strategies for making it all happen because we all know I couldn’t have. When you are directed to Straight A Style, don’t be alarmed. It’s still me. The web address will be StraightAStyleBlog.com. I hope you will bookmark it. I love anything basic with a twist. In my eyes this…
I feel just like Jordan from Petite Modern in her recent post, “Hey, look I own something with color!” But seriously, when color is as good as this floral dress from Sheinside, it’s hard not to love it. Plus, it’s only $20! I’m a new Sheinside convert. I’ve ordered a couple of things from there recently (here and here) and loved it all. The prices are hard to beat. This dress is a scuba type material, and it’s super comfy.…
Remember that time I wore a Forever21 jumpsuit I bought on sale for $20 to a black tie event? I mentioned last week that Russ and I were invited to a black tie event for his work. It was my first time at such a dressy outing, so of course I was excited/nervous about finding something to wear. I’m not the best in social situations (hello introvert). I figured I at least needed to get the outfit right, so I…
I’m so excited to share something I have been thinking about for over a year and finally taking action on. I am going to rename my blog and spruce things up around here a little bit. As you all may know, this blog started out as a personal one and slowly evolved into the fashion blog it is today. Because of this, the URL doesn’t match the name. On top of that, the name has nothing to do with fashion.…
Keeping it short and sweet today. Russ and I had a fun black tie dinner last night that I can’t wait to tell you about next week, but right now I’m sleepy! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and a Happy Easter. I just bought both of these pieces at my local Forever21, but I cannot find either one of them online. Don’t you hate it when that happens?! Top: Forever21 (similar) // Skirt: Forever21 (part of this set)…
I’ve been itching to wear this J.Crew skirt and shirt ever since I snagged it on major sale in Kansas City. I love the flounce of the skirt. When Oklahoma had a warm day, I put on some sunless tanner and went for it. Hope you all are headed into a fun weekend! Shirt: J.Crew // Skirt: J.Crew // Purse c/o Donna Bella // Heels: (old) // Coat: Forever21 (old) // Ring c/o Purple Peridot // Cuff Bracelet: Rustic Cuff…
