Peachy Keen

One color that is flattering on all skin tones is peach. Besides the delicate lace detailing, it was the color that instantly caught my eye when looking through some jumpsuits. I have to say, I never thought I would be one to like jumpsuits, but they're comfortable and stylish all in one. I've said this before, but they're the dress of the pants world. An all in one outfit. The name of this jumpsuit is Mrs. Bond, which I may add also caught my attention since I absolutely love the Bond movies. I mean, how cool is that?!? I'm wearing an x-small which fit perfectly in the waist, but was a big baggy in the pants. The pants were a bit long on me and I had roll the cuffs under for the shoot. Usually, I would go get them hemmed to skim the top of my shoes. I chose the matchy matchy theme and went with pinks and rose golds to compliment the peachy tone of the jumpsuit.

Cozy Neutrals

in ,

Hello, friends and happy Friday! Today's look is all about cozy neutrals and casual style. Lace up sweaters are quite popular right now with typically the laces going up the chest. This sweater I'm wearing has the laces on the sleeves, which are slightly oversized offering an almost bell like appearance. I really love the sandy neutral color too. Perfect for mixing with other colors or a pattern play! Use the code Amanda 20 for 20% off of your Haute Shop order.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!

Oh the gloomy days of winter. We've been having ice storms, rain storms, and a slushy mess for the past few days. I tend to gravitate towards darker clothing when the weather gets like this, but I also love to add in that pop of color to brighten up the look and add some pizazz. I will note right off the bat that this plaid shirt was the vain of this shoot haha. I threw it in the dryer and ironed it to get the wrinkles out, but it STILL wrinkled. Talk about annoying and a pain in the you know what. This woolrich coat has lately been my go-to for running out the door. I love how bright and happy the color makes me and that its nice to layer sweaters under. One of my favorite items here is the doubled layered skirt. It has a mini under layer with a full pleated outer layer. It's on e of those skirt that will go with just about anything in your closet. Items like that are great investment pieces. You'll get use out of them for years to come!

Hello all and happy Tuesday! Ok, so first this pink scalloped dress from Tobi is called the KENNEDY dress. Oh my goodness, that alone right there had me sold, haha. If you know me or have been reading this blog for a while, then you know my love for JFK and the Kennedy's runs deep. Besides that, I have a affinity for pastels and its always fun to style the softer hues during the winter months when usually darker shades are worn. This dress even has dainty scallops along the neckline and hem. It's one of those dresses that is so easy to throw on and head out the door. Especially when spring hits and you do not have to layer anymore. I'm wearing an XS and it fit like a glove so the sizing is spot on.

Over the weekend I went to go see La La Land with Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling. They always have the best chemistry together. It feels so real! If you don't know what I'm talking about then do yourself a favor and watch Crazy, Stupid, Love. Anyway, so La La Land was good and I loved the musical scenes. Emma and Ryan danced and sang fantastically, especially Ryan playing the piano, which I heard he had to practice for a few months to nail it. That is actually him playing in the movie! The only thing that felt a bit off was that the movie was very random. It's just one of those movies though. It's supposed to be like that. Overall, I liked it, but Emma and Ryan defintely made it.

Blue Velvet Wrap Dress

in ,

Hello, friends and happy Friday! I always get a bit excited for Friday's. They're the start of the weekend and anything seems possible. Speaking of Friday, this look has all the perfect elements for a date night or a night out on the town. It's simple and sophisticated with a touch of glam luxury. The velvet is so soft to the touch and the wrap style of the dress feels incredibly comfortable to move in. How stunning is the blue color too?! It's listed as a navy blue, but it's actually a bit more vibrant than that. I found the length to be perfect for my 5'2 frame and the XS fit perfectly. The dress is under $21 making it a great addition to your wardrobe.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! The weather is supposed to get frigid again around my area. I'm not a happy camper about that haha. You know my feelings about the cold weather. I am supposed to go see La La Land though, which I am super excited about! I'll let you know how the movie was on Monday. Cheers everyone!

Winter White Lace

in ,

Happy Thursday, friends! We've been having a little touch of spring weather here, which obviously means going outside as much as possible! I jump at the chance anytime the weather turns nice. This white lace top, which has some Chanel vibes, conjures up dreamy thoughts of beautiful spring time rejuvenation. White lace always does that to me. The darling black velvet details really make this top stand out. Also, the bell sleeves. You know I have a thing for bell sleeves! The little bow tie at the neckline simply has me swooning too. The top does run one size small so I would recommend sizing up one. How fantastically vintage is this circle bag too?! It's officially my new favorite shape for bags and one that feels refreshingly new, even though technically its taken from the past. See, everything old does become new again! My dad would say that all the time, haha.

Bow Bell Sleeves

Chunky Bell Sleeve Sweater c/o || Court Style Coat c/o || Black Skater Coat || Sequin Jeans || Similar Booties || Tory Burch Bag || Freyrs Sunglasses c/o || Baublebar Earrings c/o || Jackie Kennedy Unity Band || Jackie Kennedy Emerald Unity Band ||

Hello all and happy Tuesday! I'm sure you've noticed by now, but I kind of have a thing for detailed sleeves. I've always been a bit self conscious about my arms because they are sooo thin. I used to say I had sticks for arms. Don't even get me started on finding bracelets that would fit my tiny wrists. I really like this trend since its absolutely fun and also adds so volume to arms. Win, win! As soon as I saw this sweater I was hooked. It's a chunky knit, great for the chilly weather we've been having, has a turtleneck, and also has bell sleeves with tiny black bows on them. Now, I've got to be honest, I totally tied the bows wrong and didn't even realize it until way later in the day. The ribbon should go around the wrist from the bottom and then tie the bow on top. I never tied the ribbon around my wrist, so #fail haha. In any case, I'm completely in love with it.

It was freezing yesterday, i'm talking in the teens, so layering was a must. I really like the court style coat alone with this as it adds some texture and emphasizes the bell sleeves even more. The sweater is so warm that had it been a bit warmer, say in the 30s, I wouldn't have even needed the extra skater coat on top. The sweater is a one size fits all and fit me perfectly. It is on the cropped side though so keep that in mind. It's also under $22. I definitely plan on wearing this again before winter is out. Possibly with a skirt and some tights and a pop of color mixed in. I'll also try to get the bow tied right next time, haha! Hey, we all need to laugh at ourselves sometimes.

I hope that everyone is staying safe with the crazy weather that's been going on all over the country. Every night the news has been showing images and video of the wild weather wrecking buildings and trees. Scary stuff.

Hello all and happy Friday! We made it through the first week of 2017. Cheers to that! Has anyone made, or should I say actually been keeping, their New Years resolutions? I'm going to do a post on mine next week so stay tuned for more =)

Now, onto this silky slip dress from Haute Shop Co. Wearing your evening attire during the day may seem a little out there for some, but hear me out on this. I have to say when this trend first started, typically wearing a t-shirt under a slip dress with sneaks, I wasn't so sure about it. I may have even rolled my eyes and thought, nope, not for me! Slip dresses on their own are beautiful and slinky. They hug the body in all the right ways without being too tight, especially this one that I'm wearing. Can we take a moment to look at that side split giving some flirty leg action too! The dress does run one size small so make sure to order up one. I'm wearing a medium for reference.

One thing I love about fashion blogging is that it widens the horizons in my style views. I've tried so many different styles that I may not have before and actually found to like them. This trend, with my own spin on it, is one of them. Wearing a shirt underneath takes the look from night to day. I opted to wear heels with this for a romantic feel, but wearing sneakers would take this into day time even more so and give that urban cool girl vibe to the max.

Snow Day

in ,

Happy Wednesday, all! Snow pictures have always been my favorite. The cold that typically accompanies them is definitely not, but you cannot deny the beauty of a snowy backdrop. This was Ava's first big snow day too. l was so excited to see how she would like the snow and after a few tentative steps, she was off! Her snow suit outfit reminds me of a pink marshmallow, haha. It was the cutest thing watching her navigate her way through the white fluff. 

Now, onto my look for our snow day fun. The snow had just stopped falling by the time we got outside and the temperature was starting to rise. By the time we headed back indoors, some of the snow was starting to melt already. I layered up with a button down, striped top, and a topcoat. I cannot get over these tulle cuffs on the striped top! Really, the most darling detail. I adore stripes, my nautical love coming through, and I adore tulle, my love for all things feminine and romantic coming through. Honestly, the tulle cuffs sold me on the top. It's great for pairing with a skirt for a night out, wearing in the summer with some white shorts, or layered up in the winter like I have here. It's incredibly versatile.

The beanie I'm wearing is from Love Your Melon. Their mission when they began back in 2012 was to put a hat on every child battling cancer in America. Their goal was met with 45,000 hats being donated, one for each child, and a new goal was set to raise and donate one million dollars for pediatric cancer research and to prove immediate help to children and their families. Fifty percent of profits from Love Your Melon is given to Love Your Melon's non-profit partners. To date over 80,000 hats and 1.5 million dollars has been donated.

Bell Sleeves and Lace

in ,

I've always been more of a dress/skirt kind of girl, but when I do wear pants, they're typically jeans. Usually the fit of most pants does not flatter me. Be that as it may, I'm really digging these pink lace pants. First off, they're pink, obviously haha. The lace feels uber feminine and ladylike, two styles that particularly speak to me. A side note on them, they're a size 0, but I still felt they were slightly big. I washed and dried them once and they shrunk a little bit and then fit me perfectly. That worked out for me, but they will shrink ever so slightly. To top off the look I went with this layered bell sleeve sweater. I honestly love the bell sleeve trend when its done right, as in not overwhelming and ridiculous looking. Its a great statement piece that acts like a fun little twist. The sweater is a one size only and feels oh so comfy. Plus, coming in at under $25, you don't have to break the bank!

Happy New Year and cheers to 2017! I hope everyone enjoyed their new year celebrations. Ours was relaxing and fun. Absolute perfection. Has anyone made some new years resolutions? I haven't yet, but I have an idea of what mine will be.

This post is a new favorite of mine. Anything with Ava in it instantly becomes my favorite haha. We actually took these photos right after Christmas, but I wanted to save this post as my first for the new year. Something that was happy and bright! My one friend got Ava and I these rainbow sweaters as a Christmas gift. He knows me so well! I love to match with my little love bug any chance I get. She's my little mini me. Speaking of the bug, Isn't It Darling left a comment on one of my photos of Ava and I saying "such a darling duo." I thought that would be a really cool name for us, which is where the title of this post came from. So there you have it, Ava and I are now the Darling Duo! <33 In all honesty though, I feel so blessed and lucky to be Ava's mom. She is such a ray of light and one of the happiest little girls I know. Just look at her smile! Being Ava's mom, now there's the best gift of all.

Blushing

Blush Halter Top (On Sale) || Blush Skirt (On Sale) || LC Lauren Conrad Faux Fur Coat || Similar Heels || Freyrs Sunglasses c/o || Similar Clutch || Bauble Bar Bracelets c/o || Jackie Kennedy Earrings || Jackie Kennedy Unity Band || Jackie Kennedy Emerald Unity Band || Lip Color: Ava ||

I have to say, this full skirt is giving me major princess vibes. It's dramatically feminine and in my favorite hue. It also comes in four other stunning colors too. I've always been a bit hesitant with maxi styles being a petite height, but in reality, maxi styles can really lengthen your frame! It's a trick of the eye of course, but when wearing a monochromatic maxi style, you instantly look taller. I'm 5'2 and this just fits with the length. If you're shorter then you'll likely need to have it hemmed. I'm wearing a size 0. Oh, and this skirt has pockets too! An instant selling point in my opinion. The halter top has shimmering beads on it for a glamorous look and pairs perfectly with the skirt.

I just want to say also how saddened I am over the passing of Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds. It's heartbreaking for a daughter and mother to pass away only one day apart like that. Both were great and funny female role models and had a huge part in my childhood and growing up with Carrie being Princess Lea in Star Wars and Debbie being Kathy Selden in Singin' In The Rain. I cannot even tell you how many times I've watched both films, especially watching them with my family. Two other films that I love and have watched countless times are Debbie in The Tender Trap with Frank Sinatra and Carrie in The Burbs with Tom Hanks. Not their most famous roles, or ones that people even know about, but two films that are interwoven into my life. My heart goes out to their family and friends.

Embellished Bows

in ,

Oh embellishments, how I love thee. I'm a big fan of wearing embellishments or a bit of sparkle any time of the year, not just at the holidays, and this look is all about some winter cozy with a hint of sparkle. First off, these shoes are a total knock in a bright red color with a rhinestone toe detail. The kitten heel is nice also if you have a bit of walking to do. I found them to be true to size. They are seriously eye catching and sure to grab some attention. Next is the faux fur wrap vest. It's a stunning winter white with the big faux fur collar attached. Having it as a vest is nice making it easy to layer and not have too much bulk underneath my coat. The collar kept me nice and warm and oh so cozy. It's on sale right now too! The whole idea for this look was to have some winter neutrals with that bright pop of red. It instantly jazzes up the outfit while the hints of sparkle has some pizazz.

Embroidery // Jumpsuit

in ,

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a beautiful and magical Christmas with their family and friends. It was a bittersweet for us, but we still had a wonderful day celebrating. With Christmas over and New Years Eve on the horizon, I started thinking about outfits that would be fun for ringing in 2017. My first instinct is always a dress. Something that sparkles and shimmers is high on my list, but then I thought about something that is just as feminine and sexy without being over the top. Enter the jumpsuit. When you think about it, its very similar to a dress being an all in one outfit. I love this for a date night out or for a new years eve party. The floral embroidery on the semi-sheer top is so pretty and one of next years big trends. It's already popping up on items from jeans,  to jackets, and bags. The silky woven bottoms feel so comfortable and are a nice alternative to a skinny pant. The fit is true to size.

Casual Glitz and Glam

Happy Friday, friends! If December isn't the perfect time to wear sequins, then I don't know when is. With holiday festivities and new years eve parties, this is the time of the year to pull out all of your sequin outfits and dress to the nines! I personally love to wear sequins all year round, but especially now. This sequin top with grosgrain bows is an absolute stunner! I'm wearing a size 00. The fix is a bit boxy and slightly cropped. It's also 40% off right now with the code HOLIDAY. I'm absolutely in love with it! It's a statement piece so the rest of your outfit should remain neutral. Of course, you can always match it with say a sequin skirt and really be the belle of the ball. I went with a more causal look, something that could be worn on a date night or even during the daytime for a glitzy ensemble. It's a little hard to see in these photos, but these jeans also have some sequins on them too in the rips. These would be perfect for someone who wants to wear sequins, but not in a flashy way. They give just a hint of sparkle. I'm wearing a 00P.

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! I'll be attending some holiday parties and going to see Rouge One. I cannot wait! Does anyone else have some plans for the weekend??

Leopard & Blush

in ,

I think its fair to say by now that I have a slight obsession with anything leopard. While it is one of my favorite prints, I use it as a neutral in the fall and continue to do so into the winter season. Pairing it with black in a no brainier, but also some blush and burgundy colors make the outfit feel fresh and youthful. Add in another print, the plaid scarf, and you have some lovely print mixing going on. Plaid and leopard are two prints that work marvelously together and are perfect for any holiday parties coming up. Glam and festive all in one! The coat has a very boxy fit so I would suggest to go down in one size. I'm wearing a 000. Normally I'm a 00. I love the gold buttons on the coat! I'm such a sucker for anything gold. The skirt is slightly big on me. The smallest size is a small. An XS would have been perfect.

This outfit reminds me of something Blair from Gossip Girl would wear, which I totally love. The ruffle/bell sleeve look is still a huge trend going strong right now. It's the statement piece of any outfit. This top is only $14.99 too, a great price to add some flair to your wardrobe. Instead of going with your traditional tights, I opted to wear some thigh high socks with oxford shoes. It has the same effect that wearing over the knee boots would, basically to keep your legs warm and create an elongated look. You know that I'm all about little details and the scalloped edges on this cape are seriously cute. I do wish that the cape was made from a thicker material. It would be better suited for fall seeing as how it is not very warm.

This past weekend was quite an exciting one! First, thank you to my dad for taking these photos with his camera! I surprised my dad with his Christmas present, a trip to New York City to see The Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall. My mom and dad went every year to go see the show and it became one of their favorite traditions to look forward to. My dad took my brother and I twice before when we were younger as well. When thinking about his gift this year, I wanted it to be something special and instantly thought of the Spectacular. It has a lot of meaning and memories of happy times for my family. I know he and my mom had also brought their parents and their friends to go see The Christmas Spectacular too. It was something near and dear to their hearts. We both truly enjoyed the show. It really is an amazing experience and my goodness, those Rockettes!! They've always been my favorite part. I love when they line up and do their synchronized kicks. You leave the theater in the warmest of Christmas spirits. I know we both teared up during the show thinking about my mom too. As soon as the Rockettes came on I teared up a bit. She absolutely loved them and its hard not to think of her when watching them.

The rest of the day we spent walking around and exploring the city. Of course, we went down to Rockefeller Plaza to see the Christmas tree. There was a bit of a nip in the air, haha, so I made sure to bundle up in layers. The cozy scarf and hat really made all  the difference in keeping me warm. I love how regal the navy peacoat looks too. The gold buttons remind me of twinkling stars against a midnight blue sky. Since I knew we would be walking around all day, I wanted to wear flats, but something a bit more substantial and something that would cover more of my feet against the cold. Enter these streamlined and sleek oxfords. Honestly, I've never been more in love with a pair of menswear inspired shoes. Ladies of NYC, this is an absolute must for you! I wore them all day and had no issues with rubbing or sores. We went to The Plaza to grab a bite to eat before watching the nightlife of NYC pass us by. The city comes alive at night and its my favorite time to witness. I adore how the city simply sparkles, especially with all of its festivities at Christmas. Needless to say, my dad and I both had an amazing time with some many wonderful memories to look back upon.

Wear To Work

Happy Friday, friends! Today I thought I'd do something a little bit different and cover an outfit that would be beautiful for the office environment. No surprise here that this look has pink elements, but in a dusty rose shade the pink feels very sophisticated. There's nothing more office friendly than a chic pair of wool trousers. I knew instantly when I saw this pair that I wanted to style them with a creamy white top. The rose gold metallic heels give this ensemble a modern update, while the sunglasses give it a vintage vibe. I actually love how there's this mix of vintage and modern, which is what I always strive for. A modern feel with vintage flair.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! I've got some big plans for mine that I'll be sharing on Monday. Stay warm too! We're getting some serious artic weather which means bundling up will be an absolute must. I have a feeling that this winter is going to be very different from last years mild weather. I'm kind of bummed about that haha. I'm not such a huge fan of the cold weather, especially with the wind we've been getting.

FabFitFun Winter 2016

in , , ,

One of my favorite things to get in the mail are my FabFitFun boxes. Getting one of their boxes is like Christmas coming early! They're the best lifestyle subscription box out there. I say lifestyle since their boxes include a variety of beauty, home (decorating, garden, stationary,) exercise, and fashion. Each box keeps getting better and better too! If you're new to FabFitFun, you get full size premium products four times a year. Each box costs $50, but has a value of over $200 and shipping is always free. To get $10 off of your first box, use the code ENCHANTING. Without further ado, here are the products included in the box with some of my personal reviews:

  1. D.L. & CO Candle: The scent I received is Bergamot Woods, but you can also get Blackberry Nectar in a gold holder. These scents will bring winter into your home in the warmest of ways. I'm a huge candle fan and always end up buying a ton of them. This one smells so good! I love the chic holder this candle comes in. It'll make a nice decoration piece once the wax burns out. A little tip my mom taught me if you still have some leftover wax is to freeze it. Then the wax will pop right out! 
  2. Gorjana Necklace: You can receive either the taner toggle lariat in gold (what I have) or the kiernan double pendant necklace in silver. Both necklaces are so versatile and will pair perfectly with your everyday favorites. You can also turn my necklace into a choker. The little circle moves up and down. Pretty neat!
  3. Marie Mae Company Thank You Card Set: There is nothing like opening your mail box to find a beautiful hand written card. While technology is great, there is something very special about someone taking the time to write out a little note or a thank you card. I always send thank you cards out after going to a house party or receiving a gift. I'm old fashioned like that! This thank you card set is what my stationary dreams were made of. The words "cheers" is written in gold foil, which I'm a complete sucker for!
  4. Moleskin 2017 Weekly Planner: As a busy mom, I love having something to jot down my to-do list and appointments or meetings. Staying on schedule is crucial and what better way to do it than with this new sidekick. A weekly planner can help keep you on track and I don't know about you, but I love being able to cross off items from my to-do list. There's something so satisfying about it!
  5. Butter London Iconiclast Mega Volume Lacquer Mascara: If you've ever tried Butter London's nail polish, than you know what good quality this company can produce. This mascara voluminizes, separates, defines, and lifts your lashes to epic heights. I'm wearing the mascara in these photos. As always, wiggle the wand at the base of your lashes to create extra volume. The wand has a little ball on the end, which makes getting into the corners super easy!
  6. O.R.G. Skincare Mineral Peel Face: Brighter, smoother, softer skin? Sign me up! Simply spray this on, wait 3 seconds, and then start to massage the natural enzyme exfoliant for about 1 minute and then wash it off with some warm water or use a wash cloth. This definitely felt refreshing and I really liked how the defoliators weren't hard or scratchy.  
  7. Anderson Lilley Beach Butter Body Cream: Oh this smells soooo yummy!!! My fragrance is Manhattan Beach, but you can also receive Sicilian Tangerine. This rich, hydrating body cream can be applied to your hands, feet, elbows, or any other part of your body that is prone to dry skin. I use mine after I get out of the shower. Make sure to use your body cream within 3 minutes after getting out of a bath or shower to lock in the moisture. I remember reading that after 3 minutes you start to loose the moisture in your skin.

The star pin I'm wearing is for the Star Light Children's Foundation. FabFitFun partnered up with them to bring awareness to their incredible cause and I hope to spread their message through my social media channels. This was my post for instagram:

✨My holiday wish this season is for all children to have happiness and love in their lives ✨ The Starlight Children's Foundation's mission is to brighten the lives of seriously ill children. Just because you're sick doesn't mean you stop being a child, and it shouldn't mean missing out on all of the fun of childhood. I'm wearing this star ⭐️ pin to share Starlight's amazing cause.
