Time to Tame that Tangled Jewelry!

Anyone have that one drawer, you know the drawer I am talking about.  When you open it a huge gasp followed by aggressively shutting the drawer to then slowly open it again to see if anything changes, which it hasn’t so you close the drawer again and run off to brunch.  More specifically the “jewelry” junk drawer.

It is a mix of earrings who have lost their partners, necklaces that are so tangled they look like Medusa’s hair, and then you have the abundance of neon colored 80’s looking bangles that you sweaaaaaar you are going to wear to the next 80’s themed party you are going to be invited to…and when will that happen?

The way that I try and keep all of my jewels organized is that I like to keep them in a place that I can readily have at hand every piece of jewelry I own and it can nice and neatly fit on a bathroom counter. No need to sift through 3 randomn drawers, a medicine cabinet, or in a nightstand drawer to find that perfect accessory to match your outfit for the night.  So I have picked for you guys my top 3 recommendations for jewelry organizers that are super functional and stylish!

The must have dress for your closet!

Anyone else wanting to wear their pajamas in public this week? I must be feeling some type of seasonal fashion depression as of late with the weather going from hello two piece bathing suit weather to ok where is my parka it is -12 outside.  So how does one stock their closet for these tricks mother nature is pulling on us? Transitional dresses are the answer!

Now when it comes to purchasing transitional dresses what matters the most in my opinion is the material, fit, and print.  This does sound like a no brainer, but purchasing dresses without some of these specific details may leave you in the cold or having pit stains that almost reach down to your waistline…been there…seriously…not fun.  My go to transitional dress this season has been this very light knit, long sleeve, cross chested dress by Who What Wear from Target.  Ok, I have to confess I am pretty sure I have an obsession with this brand, but I mean come on their prices are on point and they have a variety of sizes for all of their pieces!

This dress is perfect because if the weather is a bit warmer this can be worn with bare legs, open toed heels, and you can skip the jacket.  If it is more on the cooler side you can pair this dress with tights, ankle boots, and a leather motto jacket.  If you feel like a mix of both you can even style it how I pictured here with bare legs, ankle boots, and no jacket!

Purse, TJ Maxx, under $40 | Booties, ASOS, undr $50
Earrings, Francesca’s, under $30

The material has the perfect amount of stretch to it and with that little bit of sparkle can give you the total glam vibes by adding simple accessories. This dress was under $50 and you can buy it online as well.  I also included a couple of other great transitional dresses from the Who What Wear collection with links to shop!

Slipping into a Who What Wear Slip Dress!

Show of hands…who made it to NYFW last week? Now show of hands of who didn’t…cue my slow awkward hand raise. Well, for those that raised their hands raise the roof babes, that is amazing! From what I see on Instagram and my fellow blogger fashionistas it is not only the absolutely amazing designers and creatives, but also a great way to get inspiration on street style looks as well. The real take away I get from the runway looks is inspiration on how to recreate that look on my kind of budget. Which is let’s just say I am not running out to purchase Gucci pumps anytime soon, but that is ok!  This is where my favorite brand, Who What Wear, comes in.

So I tuned into their Facebook live runway show last week and I was absolutely blown away.  You were able to directly shop the looks instantly on the models that were strutting down the runway literally from your phone. I mean let’s get real here we are all busy boss babes out there and we are ready to shop those trends now!  More importantly let’s talk about body diversity on that runway.  I was in love with the variety of gorgeous women who were tall, short, curvy, thin, you name it!  It really gave you the feel of how you could actually pull off a realistic look appropriate for the office or for your next party! Cheers to you Who What Wear you took the gold in my eyes for NYFW!

This week’s post I just had to share my latest find from Target’s Who What Wear collection.  What is great about this slip dress is yes it does have that springy vibe, but paired with a leather jacket gives it that balance for those chillier temps.  When it hits that sunny 70 degrees take off that jacket and you have the perfect summer dress! Yes, I know that some of you are thinking “oh I can’t pull of a midi dress, I am too short.”  Well let me tell you sister think again! I think pairing this look with a pair of heels gives you that length you may be looking for.  So just try it out! Oh and did I mention this dress is only $35! Ok now put down your latte or take a break from binge watching cat videos and get to Target to get your hands on this dress and share with me how you would style it!

Taking the “Sweat” out of Sweater!

When you hear the term “staple pieces for your wardrobe” does anyone else’s mind go to thinking about Milton’s red stapler on Office Space? Staple, stapler…just me? Ok, well now that is out of the way let’s talk about this amazing staple sweater from Target that is perfect for everyone’s winter wardrobe! I am very selective about sweaters that I purchase since I have the sweat glands of a leaky faucet. A sweater that is too heavy can cause a major sweaty…or more like intense glistening situation.

Besides my sweater I have pictured below, I have also recommended some more fabulous options from Target that are fairly priced. The sweater on the left is the best of both worlds, sleeveless and a sweater! This look is perfect for whether you are going out during the day pairing a long sleeve underneath with jeans and boots or a night look with with bare arms, leather pants, and heels. A color blocked open sweater pictured in the middle is great for just pairing a basic tee underneath since the design is so bold and you will definitely fashionably not be feeling the cold! Pictured right, a cold shoulder style gives a bit of something extra especially if you are looking for a sweater for a night out that you can feel casual and a bit flirty at the same time. Pair this with a pair of dark skinnys and suede knee highs and you are good to go!

Women's Longsleeve Duster Cardigan - Simply by Love Scarlett Women's Cold Shoulder Pullover Sweater - Mossimo™

The sweater I am fashioning below is perfect for layering with a leather jacket and a pair of heels to give it a bit of edge or keep it casual with a pair of jeans and boots like I have pictured. So I was not able to find my sweater online, but I did find something similar. Scroll to the bottom for links!
