Style: February ’10

Style: February '10

I have a new favorite dress.* It would be cute with flats or sandals when it’s warm out, but while it’s still cold I’d wear it with a colorful boyfriend cardigan and knee-high boots. There’s a little too much going on with the dress to add a necklace, but this gold medal would be really cute pinned to the cardigan, along with a dangly gold bracelet peeking out from the sleeves. For a little more color (I love all shades of red and pink together), I’d add a red bag.

OK, now I’m off to recreate this outfit with items from my closet. I bought the dress, and I already have a red bag and a few bracelets that might work…

* The dress is great but it runs a size too large, so size down if you order it. And it is NOT machine washable, as it claims to be on the website.

Honor Roll

Remember when I asked if you would like me to share items from my wish list with you? This is how I’m going to do it. I’m combining my favorites along with items from my well said section.

Sometimes I come across something so cute/sweet/charming/funny/pretty/inspiring/lovely that I just want to share it with you.  These are the things that have made my  honor roll.

MiY 4b: Feminine Moorish

We’ve already seen the first look (striking stripes and polka dots) in this fourth edition of Making it Yours, and now we’re on to the second. I love that this one is so different, yet we’re still using the same bed, lighting, seating, tables, and even the same sheets.

MiY 4b: Feminine Moorish

The rug has a moorish tile design, yet it’s done in a cheery coral and the bedding picks up on that. The curtains also echo the shape in the rug, but on a smaller scale. Creamy white paint, a white pillow with feminine details, and the photography keep the look light and sweet.

Next time, we’re drawing inspiration from the fresh produce section.
