I’ve never met a neon necklace I didn’t like

Anon asked: Hi! I could use your fashion expertise. I bought the Gap Eversoft bow sweater (black and white stripes) for holiday family pictures and am not sure how to style it. Black or red pants, skinny jeans with tall boots or heels?? I’m totally over thinking it, help please! Well Anon- I figured the best way to answer your outfit quandary was to show you an actual outfit [that I’d wear].  As shown, I would pair the top with colored pants, a fun necklace, pointy pumps and a denim jacket. But I think the better question here would be- what is your everyday style? If you showed up for your family photos in something you wouldn’t wear on a normal basis, then- well- that would be slightly ridiculous. Be yourself (& feel free to email [champagnetoasts at gmail dot com] your outfit beforehand if you’d like my opinion). {skinnies} Gap // {sweater} J.Crew // {jacket} Rich & Skinny // {necklace} J.Crew // {pumps} Ivanka Trump (similar) a fun Friday treat: get 30% off all full priced sweaters @ Anthropologie (now through Sunday)— this one is a personal favorite of mine

Huuulllllllllooo, Friday!!! Relevant to my post earlier this week about men in gingham shirts, I decided to rock my own checkerboard on this fine Friday morn. So- whatdaya think? Did I pull it off?

my mint-green skinnies: Anthro // my gingham top: Jcrew // my wedges: Aldo // my iPhone case- for those that have asked: Speck [scored @ Homegoods] // and my necklace: Dana Buchman

Shop for a similar look with these TOPSHOP Spearmint Skinnies, this Old Navy Camp Top, a pair of Bedsu Daisy Wedges (on sale!!) & this ASOS Chunky Link Bracelet!

Happy almost weekend to you all! oxo

I’m not normally what you would consider a tee shirt and jeans kind of gal.

But something about these Gap Mercer Pocket Tee’s is simply irresistable to me. I’m thinking it’s the color. Or maybe it’s the loose fit…

Either way, I’m finding it hard to not add each one to my virtual cart and click “CHECKOUT”.

bring on the bright[s]

I think I wore some version of hot pink all weekend

[no, seriously]

and as my fondness for all things bright continues to grow, I [thankfully] find myself branching out from my typical barbie-esque hue.

Exhibit A:

more of a purple-ish tone // jcrew gala shorts

Exhibit B:

orange color block dress // marc by marc jacobs

Exhibit C:

bright orange toga dress // jcrew // sidenote: that hem needs to be taken up just a notch about 3 inches

Exhibit D:

and as referred to me by gumbomoon // aldo color block pumps

On second thought, maybe my fascination with orange is just spinning off from this whole ’pink craze’.

[guess it could be worse]
