Wear to Where: Farmer’s Market

May 24, 2016

Today, the lovely ladies of Wear To Where are taking you to a farmer’s market. I would kill for a trip to a farmer’s market, but then again, I’d kill to eat anything with flavor and texture (cough why did I think a tonsillectomy was a good idea cough) and farmer’s markets are bursting with flavor and texture.

And aren’t these outfits bursting with awesomeness?? Jen looks so ready for a Memorial Day cookout with goods fresh from the farm and Deb looks amazing in that print. Check them out and be sure to follow us along for the rest of the week for more outfit inspiration!

Wear to Where: What to wear to farmer's market. You can throw these looks on and be fantastically fresh for the market!

Wear To Where: Festival

May 23, 2016

Today kicks off the first day of Wear to Where: Spring edition! We have a full week of spring outfits planned that have either been sewn or styled, depending on your talent level. I know my talent level with sewing my own fashions is still pretty low despite having the best of intentions and purchasing patterns from Patterns for Pirates and fabric to complete some tops. Maybe this year?

Anyway, we’re kicking off the tour with a festival look. Sarah looks gorgeous in her flowing (and oh-so-talentedly sewn) wrap and Jamie looks ready for a true festival.

Wear to Where: What to make or style to wear to a festival!

Me on the other hand. Well, I don’t do the boho thing. I’m pretty predictable. T-shirt, jeans, sneakers. Definitely not a festival look based on Wanderlust & Co.’s Instagram feed (which by the way, was how I figured I would get inspiration since I haven’t attended any festivals).

That proved false inspiration as I’m not wandering around in bralettes or high-waisted cut off shorts that resemble denim diapers more than they resemble clothing.

I threw some boho detailing into my outfit with sheer lace panels in the flowy top and flower embroidery. Plus a tangle of brightly colored seed necklaces and some braids and I’m good to go.

Check back during the rest of the week for other great looks from these fashionably talented ladies!

Creative Closet: Sassy Stripes

March 31, 2015

Sometimes, you nail every photo.  You can’t narrow down the awesome shots, so you include all the pics.  And other times, your camera won’t focus, it’s getting too dark and lightening them just makes them grainy, and you’re lucky you have four photos.

Guess which kind of week this is?

But I really like stripes and I love this dress from Express and I couldn’t not share a little something for The Creative Closet today.

Here’s a rough idea of the outfit:

The Creative Closet: Stripes are where it's at! I love this dress from Express layered with tights and sneakers for a casual look.

Chloe and Isabel Heirloom Chain + Pavé Convertible Necklace Stripes, polka dots, and Converse sneakers. Dressed down cuteness!

I’m still into mixing patterned / bold tights with patterned / bold dresses, so I thought this was the perfect combo.  Stripes, polka dots, and Converse sneakers.  Can’t get much better than this.  I wore it to work last week with my favorite tan booties, but I just wore them last week, so I dressed it down with sneakers.

Dress: Express
Necklace: Chloe and Isabel
Cuff bracelets: Studebaker Metals
Tights: I forget!
Shoes: Converse

How do you wear your stripes?

Creative Closet: Favorite Denim

March 24, 2015

I love denim so much, I could live in jeans.  LIke, find-a-large-pair-and-make-myself-a-tent live in jeans.It’s another prompt from The Creative Closet that was made for me.  Denim is my favorite.  It’s casual, classic, dressy.. It can be whatever you want it to be.

This is an outfit I wore to work on Friday and got so many compliments on it, I couldn’t not post it.  And it’s an outfit that I don’t want to take off.  You know that feeling when you just nail something and it all comes together juuust right?Denim is perfect any time. Love casual, destroyed denim looks.The problem is…I didn’t take pictures that day.  In true Angelica fashion, I let it go until the last minute, but I absolutely had to participate today because my girl Jaelan is co-hosting the link up.

That is another post for another day, but it involved a self timer, a car, and a scarf.  I need one of those remote thingies Katy told me about from Amazon like, yesterday.

Despite all that, I still couldn’t narrow down the pictures.  I told you, I’m never taking this outfit off.  Pardon me, but I look damn good if I say so myself.  It’s all in the accessories (and a confident attitude is the best accessory, but rockin’ necklaces really help.)Destroyed denim from American Eagle. Perfect for spring with a light sweater and a bright lip!Destroyed denim from American Eagle. Perfect for spring with a light sweater and a bright lip! Add a scarf for a little extra something on a chilly day. Destroyed denim from American Eagle. Perfect for spring with a light sweater and a bright lip! Destroyed denim from American Eagle. Perfect for spring with a light sweater and a bright lip! Add a scarf for extra texture.Most of my jeans are from American Eagle because they fit the best to me.  The thing about denim is that what feels good on one person doesn’t feel good to the other.

Usually I wear jeans that are skinny (here, here, here) or that have a boot cut flair (here, here), but these straight jeans rolled up just a bit work on me for some reason.Isaac Mizrahi Live watch, Studebaker Metals brass cuff, and Pandora #armparty American Eagle Straight Jeans Destroyed denim from American Eagle. Perfect for spring with a light sweater and a bright lip!Paired with my other favorite polka dots and some bright lips, I have spring casual written all over me, don’tcha think?

Top: Sonoma
Sweater, scarf, jeans: American Eagle
Booties: Old Navy
Watch: Isaac Mizrahi Live
Cuff: Studebaker Metals
Triangle necklace: from The Shop in East Liberty
Lips: Almay Smart Shade Lip Butter in Pink Medium
