I love a classic shirt, especially when it's oversized and can be worn as a tunic or dress. This Island Company West Indies Gentleman Shirt had me at hello! I am smitten with the over-sized fit, it's so "I stole this shirt from my boyfriend/husband's closet." Plus, it's has stripes -- what girl doesn't love a great striped shirt? I cannot wait to wear this shirt as a dress or over some boyfriend jeans. Since my growing baby bump made it a little difficult for the shirt to be worn as a dress (would've been way too short), I decided to pair the shirt with one of my fave vintage slips in a bright peach color. I topped the look off with my vintage southwest tie belt to show off "the bump" and voila! A comfortable yet super fun look to wear for a day of shopping! :)
Hey loves! I'm beyond excited to finally announce the exciting project I've been working on with some of my fave gals: Kristin of Living in Color Print, Lacey of A Lacey Perspective, & Cathy of Poor Little It Girl! This weekend kicks off college football season and the four of us girls decided it would be fun to bring ya'll some game day outfit posts to inspire you to create your own looks for game day! The four of us are FSU Alumni, so naturally we'll be rocking our garnet & gold colors, along with fun monogrammed pieces! Although you might not be a Seminole, we hope our game day outfits can inspire you to create your own looks for games, tailgates, and football parties this fall!
We've teamed up with some incredible brands to show you some pieces that we feel are game-day drool worthy! And, each of us have our own personal twist on these looks -- so you're sure to find some game day inspiration that suits your own personal style.
I, of course (being the thrift and vintage lover that I am), had to incorporate a couple of my fave vintage pieces in my look. My vintage Christian Dior sunnies, and my vintage rhinestone eagle belt -- seriously, how cool is this belt? Also, let me just add that a lot of the brands we worked with for these posts have collegiate colors that match your Alma Mater, so be sure to check 'em out!

Hey my loves! Happy hump day! :) What better way to celebrate mid-week then to have another giveaway?? Get to know this awesome new jewelry line: Claudia Rowe! Claudia Rowe is the brain child of Claudia Costantino, and her jewelry combines edge with subtle sophistication. Claudia was inspired by the bohemian gypsy style of Talitha Getty in the 1960s and the artisanal metal textures of vintage Yves Saint Laurent. She wanted to create a jewelry line for the fashion forward woman that enjoys layering her jewelry for a more personalized look. I think we can all relate to the layering, right? Right now bloggers and fashionistas alike are being seen layering necklaces, bracelets, rings -- you name it. Any of Claudia's pieces are sure to be the perfect companion to your ever-growing army or neck candy!
Here is just some of Claudia Rowe's collection:
