SugarLips Shorts (Round Two)




Welp, here's round two. Today is slightly more dressed up and bling-tastic thanks to my gold Michael Kor's link necklace. I'm not exactly sure why I'm wearing my Vera Wang blush colored heels in the backyard, but hey you can never be overdressed right? Plus, fashion photo shoots aren't exactly known for their practicality. Anyway, I hope you all loved these pleated SugarLips shorts as much as I do so head over to their website and buy something nice for yourself or one of your friends. I'm going to go make some plans that allow me to show these off in person, have a nice weekend my loves!

SugarLips Shorts





Hello, hello! As I told you all the other day I got a package from SugarLips containing these beautiful white pleated shorts. I actually liked them so much I did two different shoots with them. I decided to pair it with a bright shirt and silver jewelry. The shorts are super comfortable and can be worn a million different ways. They can be dressed down for a day of running up your credit card with the girls or dressed up for a hot night with your boy. I'll reveal the other outfit in tomorrows post!

Pretty Little Fashionistas

This blog has become a place to talk about all of my obsessions and today will be no different. I don't know about any of you, but I love watching Pretty Little Liars. The intrigue, the mystery, the romance and the fashion keep me coming back every Tuesday night. Those little liars really know how to rock a pair of stilettos. Each girl has their own unique style and I tried to capture each in the ensembles above. My favorite is definitely Aria. She embodies the hard edged fashion that I wish I could pull off. Who's your favorite liar?

Jersey Strong

Happy Tuesday everyone. For it being my Monday, I'm in a really good mood. I came home from another wonderful New York visit to a package from SugarLips, with a piece they sent me to feature on here. Come on now, is there anything better than free clothing? I think not. I'm hoping to shoot the outfit tomorrow so hopefully you'll be able to check it out by the end of the week.

As all of you know I'm from New Jersey, and let's face it, the dirty jerz doesn't exactly have the best rep around the rest of the country. Or the world for that matter, thanks to Jersey Shore. One of the worst perceptions of NJ is our sense of style, thanks to the over-tanned, over-made, and under-dressed cast of the show. As a NJ native style blogger I feel it's my duty to set the record straight about how NJ locals dress.

Today I'd like to introduce you all to an NJ born clothing company that a friend of mine helped found. Breathe Atlantic is a perfect example of laid back NJ style. The clothing is nautical themed (we're all familiar with my obsession) and locally printed. They released their new "Over The Horizon" line last night, and let's just say I'm in love. Check out a few of my favorite pieces below and then click your way over to their Facebook and website to start buying. You know you want to.

New Threads


 


Well lovely people, I'm writing this from one of my favorite places in the world, New York City. I had so much fun last weekend I decided to come up for another visit. I'll be sure to take some more instagram pics to share with all of you. Today's post was inspired by the lovely and talented Anna James over at Fash Boulevard. In her post last week, she introduced me to wonderful world of Threadflip. You can upload pictures and sell items from your own closet, plus browse and shop great deals. I'm in love. I know it might sound like just another ebay or craigslist but it's SO EASY. I can't stress that enough. I can't stand selling on ebay because it always ends up complicated with shipping and paypal and all. This adds the shipping for you and gives you all the pertinent information you'll need to tell buyers in clickable options. I just started so I've only got a few items up (all of which need to re-photographed because I did them in the less than fabulous lighting in my bedroom). If you have the time I'd love if you checked out my closet here and followed me! Happy shopping!

My Week on Instagram

 
 Happy Friday the 13th! I'm not really one for superstitions but it makes for a good night of watching scary movies or telling scary stories around the bonfire with your friends. This past week was a lot of fun and my instagram has lots of pictures to prove it, so I thought I'd share them with you. From new jewelery to cute new animal friends here's my inst-week!


This is actually a long necklace that I wrapped around
my wrist to make a bracelet.

 Here's a close up shot of my denim collection that
I took while reorganizing.

Love this gold Michael Kors necklace
I thought I'd make use out of a random string
of rhinestones I had, so I braided a new bracelet.

 Another close-up cleaning shot. Some of the
pretty summer dresses hanging in my closet

 I got so many compliments on this turquoise shell necklace

 Saw this little guy while I was on a boat
in Central Park

 Here's a shot of the sunset at the waterfront 
by my house - so pretty!

I could not get enough of this view
 from my friend's rooftop in NYC

Spring-eh-Summer Cleaning

 Good evening loves! Sorry this post is so late, I've been working on my room for the past two days. I'm exhausted but everything is shaping up nicely. The good news is I can finally show you some pictures from my marathon reorganization. Now I'm going to light a candle and relax while soak up the cleanliness.
