My Outfit ~ Chunky and Drapey

Hey lovelies!  Thought I'd throw a quick post up of today's look!  I love playing with proportions, and today's look is all about chunky (necklace and platforms) and drapey (sweater).  I love how it forms a cohesive look, yet is carelessly chic. {More after the break}

How I Wear Sequins

Well it's that time again, another BDIB challenge.  This time we are showing how we wear sequins.  I bought this matte sequined top at H&M, and here's how I wore it.  I wore this to work yesterday; please bear in mind that we have a casual dress code at my office :)

 Toggle Sweater Coat: St. John's Bay; Sequined Shirt: H&M; Jeans: 17/21; Mocassins: Target

Lipstick: Kat Von D Foiled Love in FTW; Earrings: Jewelmint


So there sure are a ton of ways to wear sequins, and I'm sure all the other ladies did fabulously as well!  I wanted to show a completely different look with this top and love it; it's very me.  I wanted to dress it way down and wear it like I would a plain t-shirt.  How would you style this for a casual look?

Shopping Haul ~ H&M Denver and More!

Happy Tuesday lovelies!  Can you believe that there hasn't been an H&M in Denver, until last week that is.  It opened downtown on Thursday, Nov. 10.  So I took a half day on Friday to check it out and I am so glad I did!  Here's what I got, along with some other killer deals I got Friday and Saturday at Colorado Ski & Golf, Gap, and Ann Taylor.

You can see my head in this pic, sorry I accidentally shot the video in HD :(

This is the metallic purple sweater and black shorts, I snapped a pic while trying it on.  Cute, huh?

Here's the link to the Ann Taylor event I attended where I first saw the fringe blouse, as mentioned in the video.

Did you take advantage of any of the amazing sales going on?

Drapey, Pinned and Trompe L'Oeil

Hey there dollface!  Happy Saturday!!  I wore this little number to work yesterday, and let me tell you this lightweigh sweater from H&M is quickly becoming a fave.  I'm only regretting not buying it in all other colors! I wore it with a pair of dark rinse curvy bootcut jeans, some oversized gold tone jewelry, and my amazing trompe l'oeil wedges from Aldo!  I wore my hair down for a relaxed vibe, but (GASP!) forgot to put in some Moroccan Oil!

Sweater: H&M (recently), Jeans: NY&Company (recently), Wedges: Aldo (recently), Bracelet: Forever 21 (a few months ago), Watch: Nixon (a few years old), Safety Pin Necklace: Jewelmint (recently)

What do you think of this look?  How cool are the shoes??  I love how from afar it looks like they have a heel, but they are wedges!!  Hee Hee!!

60s Mod Chic

Hey my dolls!  I wore this little number to work yesterday.  I picked up this frock for $15 at H&M while I was in FL and it screamed 60s mod to me.  So when I stumbled upon this vintage scarf in the same drawer as the shirt I found at my grandmother's (post here), I died because I knew I would wear it as a headband with the dress.  I wanted to temper the look a little bit to make it a tad more work friendly, so rather than heels (or my Michael Kors wedges, seen here)  I opted for my black Steve Madden oxfords.  I layered up three (!) Jewelmint necklaces, the Lovers' Locket, the Astoria necklace (short one) and the Pin Up necklace (ginormous safety pin).  I opted to forego earrings and stacked on a little arm party, featuring beauties from Target, Jewelmint, and my grandma.  As always, where would I be without my Nixon watch.  Sigh.  I really really need a nice Michael Kors watch.  Anyone want to donate one to a worthy cause? ;)

What do you think of this look?  I seriously love it.  It's my take on 60s mod, and I think I'll continue to wear this into the fall, layered over leggings with some boots.  And let's be real for a second, how amazing is the scarf?!
