More Sparkles (and a Gorgeous Peplum Skirt)

Betsey Johnson sparkle skirt, $73
Uniqlo Top, $30
Jessica Simpson high heel pumps, $70
Forever 21 faux leather handbag, $23
Kate Spade necklace, $78

After I saw this skirt online, I knew I had to make an outfit featuring it. I kind of have a thing for sequins and peplums, so this was a dream come true. A classic button-down shirt keeps it crisp and clean, while a bright orange purse provides the perfect pop of color. For girls who feel as if the white shirt/pale skirt color combo would wash them out, a black shirt is an equally nice alternative. Nude heels elongate the leg and don't distract in the least, while a delicate necklace completes the look.

XOXO,
Kate

Stripes, Sparkles, and Silver

H M double breasted jacket, £25
St. John Yellow Label 5 pocket pants, $395
Steve Madden high heel shoes, $90
Coach bag, $138
Tiffany Co chain jewelry, $250
Ae Striped Roll Sleeve T, $25

This outfit takes some of my favorite things and blends them all together. Rugby stripes are fun to wear and add a nice, casual vibe to a navy blue jacket and pair of dress pants. Sparkly heels in a soft neutral are a gorgeous compliment, especially when paired with a coordinating bag. Last but not least, a silver key pendant is a great statement piece and adds to the classic feel of the look.

XOXO,
Kate

Prancing About in Style

Paul Joe Sister top, $119
John Lewis Women vintage cardigan, £35
7 For All Mankind straight leg stretch jeans, £149
Marc by Marc Jacobs leather shoes, $200
Marc jacobs handbag, £430

A very smart look for spending time with friends and having a fabulous day out. Of course, the tie-neck makes a reappearance, this time adorning a simple black cardigan. Straight leg jeans are perfectly streamlined, and flats are just the right thing for wearing while running about town.

XOXO,
Kate

P.S. I'm a major fan of Tim Tebow, and I'm extremely excited about watching he and the rest of the Broncos "UNLEASH" tonight against the Patriots. Go Broncos!

Winter Brights

Dorothy Perkins georgette dress, $39
SWEET BALLERINA sequin flat, $97
Alexander mcqueen handbag, $1,025
Dannijo monogrammed jewelry, $245
Hair bow accessory, $14
Regent Montpelier - Brown - Hunter Boots, £195

 This gorgeous look is meant to face the elements. A classic, bright dress is accessorized with an heirloom monogram ring and girly headband. With a choice of embellished flats or showstopping rain boots, you're ready for an adventurous night on the town. 

Happy Weekend! 
XOXO,
Kate

Nautical Nights

Alexander McQueen ruffled shirts blouse, £1,120
Milly button skirt, $224
Anniel ballet shoes, €55
ASOS genuine leather handbag, 95 DKK
Yves Saint Laurent gold plated bangle, £510

This look is a classic, fun nautical combination. The military inspired buttons on the skirt are precious while utilitarian, and the soft draping of the shirt lend femininity. The purse and shoes are the perfect classics, while the gold, almost serpentine bracelet lend the look a dose of drama (yay for alliteration?).

Happy Monday, and have a great week!
XOXO,
Kate

Romantic Workwear

Cotton blouse, $150
Wet Seal cotton vest, $14
Missoni zipper pants, £285
Yves Saint Laurent high heel pumps, $319
Danielle stevens jewelry, $74
 

As the holiday season ends, I intend to prove to you guys that not all work-wear is boring.  One of the reasons I like this look is because it's professional but still romantic and soft. The color palette is sedated, and most of the pieces are classics. However, the ruffles and seams on the vest add a feminine touch. Bangles are a must-have, and how fab is that monogrammed disc charm? Gorgeous.

XOXO,
Kate
