Fantastic Strapless

Strapless Love

010


I'm starting to think there isn't a Lauren Moffatt dress I don't like.

Dress: Lauren Moffatt via the Weardrobe Closet, Shoes: Steve Madden

One Necklace, Three Ways

Jersey Necklace one
(Dress: Ebay, Shoes: Alloy, Necklace: UO)

(Sweater: Ebay, Shorts: Ross, Shoes: Target, Necklace: UO)

Jersey Necklace three

(Dress: American Apparel, Shoes: Steve Madden, Necklace: UO)


Here is the second Urban Outfitters item from the Weardrobe Closet: The Jersey Necklace. I think the coolest thing about the necklace is that it's handmade from cut up shirts-- and no two necklaces are alike! How cool is that? It also had these really great black studs all over it. For someone who doesn't wear A LOT of jewelry (or even accessories, really) it really makes me realize how fun wearing stuff like this can be and how much it can really make an outfit.

My First Phillip

My first Phillip


I was so excited to snag this Phillip Lim top from the Weardrobe Closet. I love the multi-color silky material... and we all know how much I love fluttery sleeves. Perfection! I paired it with this high waisted mini skirt I got off ebay and my new yellow heels from Victoria's Secret.

Also! I was a guest blogger on my sister's adorable blog. I wrote about some of my favorite tips on thrifting and frugal finds, so go check it out and check out the rest of her blog for some ridiculously creative ideas!

one shirt, three ways.


Burnout tee one
(UO Tee, cut off shorts, Old Navy lace up sandals)

Burnout tee two
(UO tee worn as dress, thrifted belt, forever 21 sandals)

Burnout tee three
(UO tee, Target pants from little boy section, Steve Madden wedges)

Weardrobe sent me another package full of wonderful Urban Outfitter pieces, with the instructions to style it three different ways. The first piece was this burnout tee, which was so fantastic. It was huge, so it could literally be worn as a dress (and worn as a dress it was!) but could also be tucked in and you'd never know it's true size. The shoulders could be worn a gazillion different ways. The possibilities were endless, but I narrowed it down to these three outfits. My mom even asked after seeing the last outfit, "wait, were these all the same shirt?" Isn't great when you can wear the same thing over and over and make it look completely different? There were two other pieces, but I will save those for later... you don't want everything all at once, do you? :)

I love this spread from Marie Claire's July 2008 issue. The 1940's will always be my favorite fashion decade, and I love how they made modern looks from these classic pieces. Now all I need are short shorts, slinky dresses and loose fingerwaved hair and I will be good to go.

A New Batch of Goodies!

Ruffles!

Ruffles!

Ruffles!


My new Weardrobe package arrived the other day, and I was so excited to start putting together outfits. This Anthropologie ruffled top was one of the first items that caught my eye when first browsing the closet. I thought it was more of a cotton material in the picture, but realized it's actually a softer more flowy material which makes it even more dreamy. I thought this would be the perfect outfit to dust off my espadrilles for.

Shirt: Anthropologie via Weardrobe closet, Skirt: Target, Belt: Forever 21, Wedges: Marshalls
