Stylish Tuesday + A 65 MCMLXV Tee Giveaway!

Happy Tuesday Pretties! 


Y'all SO much has happened in the last week you would not even believe! Last Monday I went to an Emmy party for work (if you follow me on Instagram you know what's coming) and met some great celebrities. It was my roomies first award event and we had an absolute blast. 

Fast forward to Thursday and Dr. D moved in with me for 2 1/2 weeks. It's super fun to do a trial "move in" period, but at the same time super depressing because he's moving to Ohio on August 17th which is literally around the corner. Friday night I had a kickball end of season party on a yacht that was prom themed. To say I had way too much fun would be the understatement of the year, but then again there was an open bar .... 

Just wanted to fill y'all in a little bit of what's going on in my life lately, but now on to the fun stuff. I mean what's more fun than a GIVEAWAY? 

The fabulous 65 mcmlxv is a NYC-based contemporary company that creates stylish but classic casual clothing at an affordable price. I immediately gravitated for the Cosmopolitan shirt because it reminded me of Sex and the City. How could one resist? 
The cotton is super soft and comfy. Plus, it's a tagless tee! You can't beat that! 

The tee is clearly the highlight of this post, but can we talk about this ikat skirt for a sec? So beautiful, made from silk and has a touch of fun in the back with a neon zipper!
Top: c/o 65 MCMLXV // Skirt & Earrings: Francesca's Collection // Heels: Michael Kors // Sunglasses: Ray Ban // Bangle: Forever 21 // Bracelets: Gifted & Zinnia // Watch: Juicy Couture

This giveaway starts today and ends on Monday, August 10 at 12 PM, PST. Winner will be announced, next Tuesday, August 11. Open to residents in the U.S. and Canada only! 65 Mcmlxv has a wide variety of graphic tees and the winner gets to pick which one they want off their website. 

Good luck y'all!

This week's featured blogger is Cynthia from My Rose Colored Shades
Cobalt Blue and Black is one of my favorite color combos leaning into fall. I think they pair together perfectly and this outfit completely reassures that! The sleeves on this top are fantastic and her skin tone looks amazing next to this fun shade of blue. Great look doll!

Stylish Tuesday + Cheers to 2 Years Dr. D!

Happy Tuesday Dolls! 

First I have some great news ... I FINALLY found the most amazing apartment in LA! My new roomie is amazing and we're sharing a massive loft in West LA with 3 patios and and rooftop access. I'm still pinching myself with how lucky I got. Oh and did I mention there's laundry IN the unit? For all of the non-Los Angeles goer's out there this is a HUGE deal and knock on wood I've been lucky enough to have it in each place I've lived. 

As soon as I get nice and settled I'll post photos of my new abode, until then it's a ton of unpacking and organizing followed by some super fun decorating and DIY time. Pinterest is already my BFF but we're about to spend some super quality time together!

Since I found this place so suddenly, the move was put into high gear and I packed all of my stuf in 3 days and moved in a total of 7 hours to the other side of town. Naturally, blogging was put to the back burner because let's be real I needed a roof over my head; therefore, I know I shared this outfit 2 weeks ago but never got around to telling the story of Dr. D's and my 2 year anniversary so here we go!

Enjoying our picnic behind the wine sign 
I loved all of the cute decor Malibu Wines had on display 
We had a spectacular picnic lunch filled with chicken strips, brie & triscuits and grapes. Don't judge! 
We had a wonderful time wine tasting and reminiscing about the last two years we've spent together. After that we re-lived our childhood and saw "Muppets Most Wanted." We may be 25 but we're still kids at heart!

This week's featured blogger is Tracy from It's Mostly About Fashion!
This outfit literally screams Spring and I cannot get enough of it! I love the crisp white pant paired with a bright coral top and turquoise accessories. Even her toenails are turquoise which compliment her gorgeous open toe sandal perfectly! Thanks for sharing the great look Tracy!

Comfy Sweaters & Stylish Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday Dolls! 

Holy crap when did it become the week of Valentine's Day? Wasn't it just yesterday that we were counting down and watching the ball drop? January always comes and goes for me every year, but I feel like the rest of 2014 has gone by in a blink as well! 

Anywho ... over the weekend I went to a UCLA gymnastics meet with some of my alumni sorority sisters and had a freakin' blast! I totally fan-girled over Jordyn Weiber and Sam Peszek and shamefully took photos of them via Instagram which I was too lame to post -- probably better in the long run though so I'm not considered a super stalker. 
I spent the rest of the weekend at Dr. D's humble abode and got a lot of quality R&R time. The Oscar's aren't for another 3 weeks but they're already kickin' my booty!
This Everly sweater is seriously the most amazing addition to my closet lately and I've been wearing it non stop. It's super soft and feels like you're wrapped in a cozy blanket all day long!
P.S. I love that "Winter White" is an acceptable thing but "White after Labor Day" isn't? Who makes up these silly fashion rules anyway?
Sweater: c/o Everly // Denim: Old Navy // Booties: Just Fab // Earrings: Francescas // Necklace: Etsy // Spiked Bangles: Sage K and Co // Rings: Handpicked & Pandora // Bag: Michael Kors

 Two ladies are being featured this week: Sherry from The Life of the Party and Ariel from Auteur Ariel 
Sherry's look is nothing short of fierce and edgy! I'm loving her faux fur vest, killer leopard pumps and a dash of color with her bright studded clutch. She made it feminine with the perfect amount of glitz in her earrings!

Ariel went Bohemian chic with her faux leather pants, slouchy cardigan sweater and heeled booties. I love the spiked necklaces and floppy hat to top it all off, very cute indeed!

Shopping Is My Cardio + Stylish Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday Dolls! 

I guess all of my bragging about the warm weather was bound to nip me in the butt because it's fuh-ree-zing in LA right now. By freezing I mean in the low 60's (I feel your eye rolls through my screen) and believe me my Michigan/Indiana self would slap me in the face for saying such a comment. 

Even though I thought it was le freezing, I couldn't wait to wear one of my new graphic tees!
I'm offering one in a giveaway at the end of this post
It's sad to say but the most exercise action I get is when I'm playing kickball. No jokes here folks, I actually play in multiple co-ed kickball leagues; but this faux leather skirt was simply made for twirling!
So needless to say Shopping is definitely my Cardio
Tee: Made By Yours Truly // Skirt: H&M // Shoes: Target // Earrings: Francescas // Necklace: Cornucopia // Bangle: Rustic Cuff 

 Two ladies are being featured this week: Sofia from Stylishly in Love and Elise from Hunters of Happiness
Sofia's look is edgy yet feminine with her gold accessories. She has a great story behind these amazing jumpsuit photos so make sure to check out her blog!

Elise's style reminds me a lot of my own. I absolutely love the way her red vest and pink gingham top bring out the red and pink in her super cute and fun confetti shoes!

Hipster-esque Stylish Tuesday

Happy Tuesday Dolls!

Being a southern girl, preppy tends to be the fashion way I lean towards, NOT hipster. But alas every now and then it's good to step out of your comfort zone!
Booties that don't match my outfit? Unheard of ... 
Not doing a damn thing to my hair besides letting it air dry? Sheer madness ...
White Tee: LOFT // Plaid Shirt: Target // Leather Pants: ANGL // Booties: Just Fab // Sunnies: Ray Ban // Earrings: Francesca's Collection // Necklace: J. Crew // Gold Link Bangle: Forever 21 // Spike Bracelets: Sage K and Co & Juicy Couture 

Needless to say I may not have totally nailed the hipster look, but it was fun trying something different! 

Have you ever tried something totally out of your element?

This week's featured look comes from Chelsey at Patti Cake

Her winter-white look is SPOT ON with touches of gold in her accessories. Everything from her gold nails, adorable Kate Spade sunnies and gorgeous booties is perfection. Way to rock it Chelsey!
