Sunsets and gold accents

Posted in fashion by

Wow, we sure do have some catching up to do!

Let’s kick things off with my favorite shirt from this past summer. I bought this fun pineapple sequined top from H&M and fell in love with the shimmering sequins. It’s so easy to dress up and down. I paired it with some fun metallic heels here, a simple dark wash jean and a gold bangle, but it goes well with so much more!

Throw in a beautiful sunset for that extra special touch.

Stay tuned for more posts.

Styling Outfits with Prints and Patterns

Posted in diva tips, fashion, score board by

Hey Loves!

Notice any similarities between this outfit and the outfit featured in our last post, Weekend Wear: Formal to Fun in a Flash?

All I did was swap out my floral print skirt with cute palm shorts (outfit details below). Everything else is the same! Black tank, jean vest and wedge sandals.

Don’t be afraid to wear patterns ladies (and gents!). If you’re a beginner, here are a few simple tips to remember.

  1. Keep the focus on one item of clothing that has a pattern/print
  2. Pair with solid colors
  3. Wear items with similar hues (for example, I chose blues and blacks, but could have easily worn a white tank also)

Outfit details:

  • palm shorts – Attention brand from Kmart – ($4 on clearance!)
  • jean vest – Adam Levine brand from Kmart
  • black tank – Target
  • wedge sandals – Nine West

Have a great weekend!

Weekend Wear: Formal to Fun in a Flash

Posted in diva tips, fashion by

Happy Friday!

We get it. Sometimes, when you’re running from one weekend event to the next, there’s not enough time to go home and change your outfit. So what’s a girl to do when you’re heading from church with the family to a fun Fourth of July BBQ with friends and need to look the part?!

Check out how we took this summer floral look from formal to casual chic by swapping out one clothing item for another. Yes, that’s right. A simple neutral blazer for a jean vest makes a huge difference.

Enjoy and Happy 4th!
