Wild Side

Top: Ann Taylor | Coat: River Island (similar here & here) | Pants: Forever 21

Bag: Forever 21 (similar here & here) | Shoes: Forever 21 (similar here, love these)

Bracelet: Costa Blanca (similar here) Ring: Gifted (similar here, love this) | Sunglasses: Ray-Ban

This top is another one of my many Ann Taylor purchases as of recently. While I absolutely adore Forever 21  - alot of  their items feel a little young for me. Sigh. Hot pink sequined short shorts? I like Ann Taylor because not only can a mid-twenty something woman find great items that are young and trendy - so can my mom (age not to be disclosed :p). We even bought the same pair of pants a while ago - I've worn them on my blog already. Can you guess which ones? Plus, how beautiful is Kate Hudson in Ann Taylor's latest campaign?

Dippin' Dots

Top: Urban Outfitters (similar here or here) | Jacket: River Island (similar here or here)

Pants: Forever 21 (similar here) | Shoes: similar here or here | Bag: Blue Notes (similar here)
Sunglasses: Coach | Lipstick: Nars 'Jungle Red' 

Triple pattern play today! Stripes, dots & leopard print. I must be getting brave. I love jeans that aren't your typical blue denim - so more often than not I'm wearing a patterned pair. Tip: Smaller prints will make you appear slimmer, while larger prints will have the opposite effect. That's why I loved the small dots on these particular pants. What are your favorite patterns to mix? Mine are stripes and polka dots - if you couldn't tell.

Shoe Diaries: The Pointy Toe

I've been in love with pointy toe'd shoes lately, so above are some of my current favorites. I thought I would also feature some of my favorite bloggers and how they styled some of these gorgeous heels (or similar styles). Click on each picture to view their post! Now if I can just get my grubby hands on every one of these I would be one ridiculously happy girl...

Never A Wrong Time For Polka Dots

Sweater: Forever 21 (similar here & here & here) | Jeans: Forever 21

Neck Collar: The Bay (similar here) | Shoes: Payless (similar here, LOVE these) | Clutch: Ann Taylor

I love this neck collar I got for Christmas last year from my mom! How genius! It adds a little something to whatever outfit I choose to pair it with. I actually have two of them, both gifts, as I can never seem to find them anywhere! My mom actually tried to make me one, but they were just too difficult and timely. 

These shoes I purchased from Payless back when I was in high school (8 years ago, but who's counting?), and they have managed to stand the test of time! I love pointy toed heels, and thankfully they never really go out of style. 

Also if you are feeling so inclined, please nominate me for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards with Next here or by clicking the pink badge on the right! My blog has only been around for about a month or so, so you can nominate me for Best New Fashion Blog and/or Best Newcomer. Thanks guys! ^_^
