Christmas Parties!

With all the Christmas and New Year's parties coming up, we decided to post some websites that had great 'cocktail' (don't worry, not literally cocktail) dresses for gatherings or photos or just for fun :)

This is a new website I found, I love love love this dress! The Jackie look is definitely one of my go-tos :)

Don't that I'd necessarily call it an "Audrey", but it is still cute:

Enjoy :)

Cardigans!

An easy way, we've found, to make a sleeveless shirt modest and add a classy or unique (or both...) touch to a look is by using cardigans. They are great to have year round whether with denim shorts or long jeans and a scarf in winter!

Bright colors are great for spring, however, the richer, saturated colors tend to be best for winter.

Neutral colors like this one are great any time :)

For something a little different, we thought this
http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=sw%5Fcardigans&product%5Fid=2078092998&Page=all&pgcount=25
(if you haven't noticed,  I'm a big fan of ruffles :) )

Both websites have great cardigans (Forever 21 may not have modest outfits, but cardigans, you can't really mess up)
Enjoy!

First outfit!

So we'll be trying to post outfit ideas every once in a while where we'll put together an ensemble with things from various stores - actual stores that you can go to in person and not have to worry about shipping/handling. This first one is a quicky: a cute black three-quarter length shirt from NY&C with a basic easy-to-match-with necklace also from NY&C. The purse is a fun accent with the bold flowers and, sadly, has to be ordered online, but from one of our favorits: Downeast! :)

Year-round outfit, summer/spring: pair with jean shorts or capris; winter/fall: long jeans/khakis and a fun colored cardigan :)
