Red, white, and chic!

All American girl
I hope everyone is enjoying their Memorial Day! Everyone should take a moment to honor those who have fought for our country and freedom. 
Here are some of my favorite red, white, and blue pieces! Any of these would be perfect to wear on Memorial day or the 4th of July or any day you are feeling patriotic.

Daily Inspiration


Disney Week: Hercules


Day 3: Hercules 

Hercules is one of my obsessions recently. (It's on Netflix people go watch it.) The part where Meg sings this song is my favorite part. So, I wanted to do a Greek god inspired look and replicate Meg's purple dress. 

For this look I paired a flowy purple tank that has sheer panels. It kind of resembles Meg's flowy dress. Then I paired the tank with a simple pair of black ankle pants. I added gold accents and jewelry for a Greek God inspired look. Then to finish it off use a dark plum lipstick!

Gold Glitter

Gold is one of my favorite metals. I love the look of gold and how glamorous it looks on. So, I wanted to share some of the ways I like to incorporate gold into my looks. 

1. Jewelry: Jewelry is one of the main and easy ways to use gold in an outfit. Almost all the jewelry pieces I own have gold metal in them. I think its super classic and girly. You can get gold bracelets, necklaces, or even earrings anywhere! From Forever 21 to Henri Bendel there is a price point and style for everyone. 



My picks: 

 




2. A sequin dress or skirt: I love wearing sequin dresses or skirts to spice up your look. They are great to have around if you ever need a fancy dress. I also like to wear sequin skirts everyday. There are so many ways that you can wear them in a casual way. Or you can dress them up and make it a cute going out look. Here is how I styled my sequins skirts during the holidays: 



3. Metallic ballet flats or shoes: Adding a pop of metallic for your shoes is also an easy way to add gold into an outfit. Also, gold ballet flats or heels are super versatile and you can wear them for special occasions or for an every day look.

OOTD: Fur and Stripes



With new additions into my closet from Christmas I have been trying out my new pieces. One of them being my faux fur vest. I paired the vest with one of my favorite striped dresses from Forever 21. My color combination of the maroon, creme and black is a fun winter look.

Having a faux fur vest for the winter is actually really handy. If you are going to be outside layer it under your coat to keep you warm. I recently wore this downtown Chicago (look out for that post!) and it kept me super warm and cozy. 

 I love wearing maroon in the winter and fall. It's a color but at the same time it is super neutral. 

For accessories I included an unique chain and rhinestone necklace, my new watch, and a pair of ballet flats. 



{I have been styling my hair like this ever since Christmas. It may be my new signature hair look.}


Where it's from:
Dress: Forever 21 
Vest: American Eagle
Tights: Nordstrom 
Watch: Michael Kors 
Necklace: Charming Charlie 
Shoes: Juicy Couture

7 Days of Accessories: Henri Bendel

7 Days of Accessories: Henri Bendel




Does this diva seem familiar? Even Becca from Confessions of a Shopaholic lovers her Henri Bendel bags!

Henri Bendel may be one of my favorite places to get jewelry now and days. Their pieces are not only sparkly and fabulous but they are also very nicely made. (which is always a plus) Sometimes it can be expensive however I totally think it's worth it!

So many colors so little time!

Ruby Red featuring: Henri Bendel

If you are bold girl they have many pieces in rich colors like this bright red. It makes your pieces stand out from your neck to your wrist. My favorite pieces include the statement necklace and the red bangle. They are both classic but still fun with the red.

Sleek Silver featuring: Henri Bendel

Let's say silver is your scene. Well, Henri Bendel offers almost every jewel they have in multiple metal options. Silver is not only sleek but it is modern. So, whether you want a chunky bracelet, a classic bangle, or a fun stack of rings Henri Bendel has you covered in the sliver department.

Golden Girl featuring: Henri Bendel

Gold is a classic metal. Henri Bendel, I would say, has they best selection when it comes to gold. Which is good because I wear mostly gold jewelry. My favorite pieces include the wrap watch, bow earrings, and tiny beaded bracelet. All of these pieces would make great gifts during the holiday season. Or you could get them for yourself!


Rose Gold featuring: Henri Bendel

Lastly, is rose gold! Rose gold is a fairly new trend but I am all for it. Henri Bendel has some great quality rose gold pieces. Sometimes rose gold is hard to find but they have a great selection at their store. So, for the girly girl in your life a rose gold bracelet, earrings, or ring would make a great gift. Rose gold is soft but still very chic. And I'm hoping this metal is here to stay!

My Henri Bendel Pieces:


Their bags and packaging is just as cute as their actual products! 


Minus the infinity bracelet these are two of my rose gold pieces from Henri Bendel. I am a huge fan of rose gold and these pieces are not only chic but are super fun and unique. I haven't met anyone with these bracelets so far. (it might have something to do with the fact that I have been in Iowa for forever but we will pretend I'm not) 


Then this brown leather bracelet is from Henri Bendel. I wear this almost every day it seems like! I am completely obsessed with this model of bracelet and it is perfect for every day wear.

Watch Out

Watch Out: 

Watches are becoming a huge accessory recently. Everyone is obsessed with having the "it" watch. In my experiences most people have been dying to get a high end watch like a Michael Kors or a Marc Jacobs watch. 

Personally, I am also obsessed with this idea because a watch is not only fashionable but practical. Also, watches are great layering pieces for arm candy. 

As we all know I am absolutely obsessed with stacking and layering bracelets. Adding a watch to your typical arm candy is a great way to add a more chunky statement piece. 

Not to mention I feel like watches are so fabulous and luxurious so who wouldn't want one hanging out on their wrist?



Stacking matching bangles with a chunky watch is a great way to style your watch. It creates not only layers but also texture because of the variety of different bracelets. 


The watch is the watch I will be getting for Christmas! {Shhh don't tell anyone I know}



Being glamours while wearing a watch is a classic combo. So grab a glass of champagne and a gorgeous watch and call it a day.  


These two are my favorite watches I own! They are both from ASOS.
