Take Me To Paris

T-Shirt: Old Navy $10, Jeans: Abercrombie & Fitch $40 (sale), Heels: Shoemint $80, Bag: JCrew Factory $40

Seriously, take me to Paris!! LOL Like today would be nice :)

I have been obsessing over everything Paris for a while now, so when I saw these adorable tee's from Old Navy I had to grab them. They have a bunch with cute sayings on them but I especially loved the ones with the French theme. I thought I would glam up the t-shirt and jeans look by adding heels and some color. I love orange in the Summer and when it's paired with grey, it's one of my favorite color combinations.

Talk to you lovelies soon!

T-Shirt: JCrew Factory $36.50, Skirt: H&M $60, Flats: Shoemint $70, Clutch: Old Navy (old)

Today's look is all about classic femininity. I love trying different looks from boyish, to edgy, all American, and feminine. Lately I've been playing around with more of my girlie side. I'm obsessed with midi skirts and have been trying to wear them more often. I have also been crushing on anything that has to do with Paris. When I saw this cute Parisian girl tee from JCrew Factory, I had to have it! So with today's look I married my to favs together.

Talk to you lovelies soon!

Rent the Runway's Unlimited

Thursday, August 14, 2014

Some of you may already be familiar with companies that offer monthly subscriptions for makeup, clothing, accessories, etc.. Companies like Ipsy, Birchbox, or Julep Maven. Some of you may even be familiar with Rent the Runway. (Affordable high-end designer dresses and accessories made available to rent.) Well, how amazing would it be if RTR did a monthly subscription...? My dreams have come true! Introducing Rent the Runway's Unlimited!

{Photo from RTR}

I am so excited about this! I've rented from RTR for over 3 years now and only have great things to say. They have THE BEST customer service and an amazing collection of designer pieces for every occasion.

Here's how Unlimited works:

For $75 a month, you'll receive an endless rotation of designer statement accessories including handbags, jewelry, outerwear and seasonal items to choose from. (i.e. scarves, hats, sunglasses) There are thousands of statement pieces from over 100 designers. New styles are added every week and are from the current season.
Queue your favorite items and they'll send you 3 to start. Keep them for an unlimited amount of time and when you're ready, return 1, 2 or all 3 of your pieces. Your next shipment will contain the same number of pieces that you sent back. Shipping is free both ways and all items are insured. Shipment is determined by which pieces are available and you’ll receive a variety of items.
You will automatically be billed $75 (plus tax) for your membership every 30 days. This price is their special beta price so availability is limited.

Get more of your questions answered here.

How awesome is this?! Yes, I know with other subscriptions you get to keep the items. But, for us everyday girls with expensive taste, this opportunity works like a charm! Think of it as fashion's version of Netflix.

Here's a peek at what's in my queue:

Summer in Black and White

Top: H&M $30 (similar here and here), Skirt: H&M (old), Flats: Target $28, Clutch: Old Navy (old)

I have a confession to make about the top I'm wearing. It's actually a bodysuit. And by bodysuit I mean one-piece swimsuit LOL. But who cares right? The last time I wore this midi skirt, it was a lot cooler out and I paired it with a sweater and fedora (here). This time I wanted a look that was more summertime appropriate. Nothing says summertime like a swimsuit. LOL Honestly, I just needed a black top that was a good mix of sexy and chic and thought why not.

Wishing you all a fab week! TTYL :)
