Jewelry – various personal faves

Hey Pretties,
It is C-O-L-D in the A today, I mean like 30’s. So, I am in chill mode. When the temp drops and that wind starts howling, I really prefer to stay in and chillax in front of the tv watching a classic movie like Imitation of Life or Mildred Pierce, sipping on a hot cup of peppermint tea or chai latte. I need a chill mode outfit for these days and today’s OOTD is just the ticket – sweatshirt, skinnies, and kicks. That’s easy right!

The sweatshirt with faux leather accents at the arms and neck was a steal from Marshalls at $19.98. A good pair of skinnies go with everything and are just right for lounging, especially these with a touch of spandex. I’m not a sneaker chick at all but these patent leather sneakers from Coach have more ath-leisure look and I love the ribbon laces, very cool.

One of the most fun aspects of blogging is blogger giveaways. The necklace is a special piece I won in a giveaway sponsored by the lovely shopfreak. It’s from Charmedseed Jewelry and each piece is handmade, cut, letter-stamped, and distressed individually. And totally personalized, you can choose any word or phrase. I chose “powerful” because as women sometimes I think we forget just how powerful we are in this world. The other jewelry is some of my favorite more casual chill pieces like the rubber bracelet from Marc Jacobs, on sale now for $20 bucks – great stocking stuffer!

What’s your chill mode outfit?

Hello Pretties,
Camouflage is one of my favorite fashion trends. The military began using camouflage as military attire in the early 1900’s. Not just for the outdoorsy crowd, you can find camouflage all over the place in different colors and in unexpected styles. I made this outfit a little more sexy I’ll say by adding the top with the sheer neckline and arms. Now lovelies, wearing head to toe camo will definitely put you in the hunter girl or military maven category but adding it as an accent in a scarf, a top, or cute shoes is a subtle way to wear the camouflage trend.

What fashion trend are you trying this fall season?

Hello pretties,
I’m trying out a comfy, casual fall fashion trend – the embellished sweatshirt. I’m talking rhinestones, studs, and sequins. I love sparkly bling of any kind and wearing it on a sweatshirt is right up my alley. I was so stoked to find the one I’m wearing at Old Navy for $20 bucks! It’s the perfect day/night option which can be paired with boyfriend jeans for day or a cute leather skater skirt for night.

Check out the lovely Jess at Jess Style Rules rocking another sparkly sweatshirt from Old Navy and these sparkly gems from ASOS.

These are not your old ratty gym sweatshirts. If you’re looking for a more creative and affordable option, try a DIY. This would be an easy project, some inspiration here, here, here. I blogged about Wander and Hunt website where you can purchase complete rhinestone kits. Hmmm, I think I’m feeling inspired too, more to come on the blog. You can wear it solo or layer with a chambray shirt or turtleneck. Sweatshirts are pretty and practical and a good summer to fall transition piece too!

Have you tried the embellished sweatshirt trend?

Pajamas – my favorite gift!

by 6 Comments

Hello Pretties,
My all-time favorite gift to receive at Christmas is pajamas. Pajamas can be an expensive or an inexpensive gift, that’s why I like to gift them as well as receive them. Pajamas date back to the early 1700’s and are worn primarily by women. There’s the high end from retailers such as La Perla to the lower end from retailers such as Old Navy and Everything in between.

$930.00 – www.laperla.com

$258.00 – www.bedheadpjs.com

$54.99 – www.jumpinjammerz.com

$12.00 and $19.94 – www.oldnavy.com

I’m admit, I’m partial to the pajama tops and bottoms! In the summer, I like a pajama top with pajama shorts. Pajama fabrics come in cotton, flannel, satin, or silk. Here’s some styles I really like.

Are visions of sugarplums dancing in your head, while you slumber in your pj’s?
