valentines: look for less

Splurge:  Dress // Clutch // Shoes //

Save:  Dress // Handbag // Shoes //

It's no secret that I love my designer items.  However, realistically everything cannot be designer.  I'm loving blush pink for Valentine's Day.  Both of these are HIGHLY identical yet at incredibly different price points with the same stylish impact.   You choose:  splurge or save?

2015 Christmas Wishlist

Happy Friday, Everyone! I hope your week was fantastic!  I'm starting off this weekend with a post featuring my dream Chirstmas wishlist!  These are the items that I have been currently drooling over. To be specific, in between the Celine sunnies, Keepall (be still my heart!:)), agenda (every busy girl needs a fantastic planner right?!), and flats (the gold would go with everything & the kitty ones are just the cutest thing ever), I can't seem to pick my jaw off the ground.  They are all just absolutely too gorgeous.  While I know that the majority of these items will remain a dream for now, it is so fun to actually browse the sites and find things that make your heart skip a beat in the process.

xoxo,

Abbie

spring inspiration

// Shirt:  J.Crew // Denim:  Gap // Heels:  Nordstrom // Lipstick:  YSL // Clutch:  Tory Burch // Sunnies:  Ray Ban//

Here's a little inspiration of a Spring outfit that I cannot wait to wear! Lately, I have been absolutely in love with neutrals paired with one or two bright statement pieces.  By adding this bright yellow clutch, it brings fresh new life & springy color into this chic classic look.

Thanks for stopping by!

.:Fall Wants:.

While it is still in the 70s to 80s here, I have fully caught Fall fever and am dying to get some Fall pieces!  Here's what's on my wish list that is specific to the season:

Buffalo Check Shirt

A good buffalo check will carry you through Fall with big chunky scarfs, destroyed jeans, and fabulous boots in tow!

 Blazer

This blazer could be super cute with a Chanel brooch (or any sparkly necklace or brooch) and leather pants to add some toughness to this business-like piece.

Scarf

Leopard is a neutral.  This scarf would go with everything from stripes to solids to instantly up the ante of any outfit without effort.

Leopard Booties

You all know how much I love my leopard flats!  I think I may just need a boot version for Fall/Winter!

Tory Burch Flats

These flats sparkle with gorgeousness!  They would be so cute paired with a pair of black leather pants and a loose white tee.

 Bow Back Booties

These booties are life.  I love the sweet bow on the back.  While they are an investment, they would be worthwhile as they would go with just about any Fall outfit.  

Leather Sleeved Jacket

This jacket is so amazing.  The leather sleeves up the cool factor of it a million percent.  I picture it styled with destroyed denim, a Chanel brooch, and black d'orsay pumps.
