Style Revel

I am so excited to announce the start of my new company!  I have been waiting for quite a while to do so and am glad I am finally able to.  We had such a fun shoot this past Sunday for some images to use for promotion.  We haven't started getting merchandise in so we just put together some looks we loved from my closet :)  The style of these photos reflects the type of thing we will carry though.

JEA Model Management provided four of our models for the shoot.  I am so lucky to have a friend like Jamie Ainsworth.   They did a fantastic job and we look forward to working with them moving forward!  Check out JEA Model Management on Facebook to keep up with their adventures.

Adam was literally the best throughout the whole thing.  Actually-- throughout this last couple of months.  I have been so busy finishing out my time at Libby Story-still full time, starting this company, planning our wedding--  It has been nuts and he has been so understanding and so helpful.  He was at the shoot helping out every step of the way.  We are still finding confetti in random places!

Speaking of helpful people, I am so lucky to say that one of my best friends Haley Early is joining me in my new adventure.  She is Director of Public Affairs at Style Revel and I couldn't be more excited!  With her people skills and marketing knowledge I know we will be successful.   Plus, doing all of this with a best friend is just much more fun.

To follow our journey check us out on Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest. I'm sure it will be an exciting (and interesting) ride! 

Cheers!

Timeless Dress

 I got this dress from Free People a few years back.  It is one of those purchases that I never get tired of.  It extremely versatile.  Here, I am wearing a Free People bralette and skirt slip underneath.  I belted it with a vintage belt and added one of my favorite pairs of heels-- purchased from DSW last year .   My necklaces are Vanessa Mooney and vintage.  

The great thing about this dress is that I can unbutton it and wear it as a kimono top, put maxi dresses underneath, dress it down with flat sandals and a hat.. the options are endless.  Gotta love a purchase that you wear for years and never get tired of.    

Who will you be?

Top: Mink Pink Skirt: Vintage Socks: Free People Shoes: Mia

This quote describes it perfectly.  Sometimes you just get this idea in your head and nothing else will do.  Who will you be today?

Fringe Benefits

I love fringe.   Maybe because of the way it moves around when you walk.  Or possibly the bohemian feel it gives to your outfit.  Either way, I LOVE IT.  I included one of my favorite fringed pieces in my outfit for today.

 

The skirt and top are from Libby Story.  Bowler hat is from Urban Outfitters. Boots are from Target.  The hat is the only item that's still available online.  Get it here.  

Here are some more pieces with fringe that I am really loving from Free People.

The only vintage I am wearing today are my bracelets.

I'm off to work! I'll probably be jumping around all day in this skirt, but hey, a little extra cardio never hurt anyone.  I will leave you with some fabulous fringe inspiration from Spell and the Gypsy Collective. 

Until Tomorrow,

Monday Mornings

I don't ever feel like dressing up on Mondays. I think it's because Mondays are already tough as it is. Lucky for me, Monday is usually my off day at work. Today, I am wearing a casual comfy outfit perfect for getting through the Monday blues. 

I am really into overalls right now.. I am currently looking for some colored and floral vintage ones on Ebay but haven't quite found the perfect ones yet.  If I can find a few cool pairs, I will probably be frolicking around in overalls quite a bit this summer.   This particular pair is from the thrift store.  The top underneath is Free People.  The scarf on my head is vintage.  

My converses I custom designed on their website.  It's so fun-- you can choose the design, words on the back and customize all the colors.  You can do some yourself here:

Good luck braving this Monday! Put on something you can have fun in. It makes everything much more bearable.

Until tomorrow,
