Style: Hello, Boots!

We’ve had fall-ish weather over the past several days! YES! It was almost 90° on Thursday, but I woke up on Friday to temperatures in the 50°s. It might be premature since I know this lovely cool weather isn’t here to stay yet, but I pulled out my boots and wore them all weekend. Do [...]

Style: Vest Me

I’ve been wanting a cute, fitted menswear-ish vest for a while now. I can’t seem to find exactly what I’m looking for, but this one from J.Crew is pretty close. I’d wear it with a simple white tank underneath and layer on a bunch of necklaces. This ensemble looks sort of classic film inspired, don’t [...]

Exhibit A: Pink Hair

I did it! My hair is pink! It’s not quite as cool as The Beauty Department’s version since I skipped the bleaching step and used one color instead of four. But hey, it was my first time dying my own hair, so I’m proud that I grew a sack and did it. Next time I’d like to [...]

Style: Midnight in Paris

Daniel and I finally saw Midnight in Paris over the weekend. We really enjoyed it! (Now Daniel is claiming that we’ve seen Paris and can cross it off our list of places to visit. HAH.) Rachel McAdams’ character was hateable, but I’m in love with the effortless yet charming shirtdresses she wore throughout the film. Have [...]

Style: Déjà Vu

I put this outfit together and thought there was something strangely familiar about it. Then I realized it’s awfully similar to the last outfit I posted. I must have a subconscious craving for yellow with a geometric motif! 1 Botanical Garden Bubble-hem Dress from Ruche 2 Jeuniva Heels from Aldo 3 Black Stained Wood Bangle from Voz Clothing [...]

Style: It’s Hot

Happy Memorial Day! It looks like hot weather is here to stay. Our weather forecast is calling for highs in the mid 90′s all week. Booo! I’m currently planning a trip to Iceland in August to escape the heat and humidity of summer in North Carolina. If you live in Iceland or have visited, please [...]

Style: “Your Hair is Your Best Accessory”

Posted by Amanda (wit & whistle) on May 23rd, 2011 under Fashion Tags: , , , , ,  •  4 Comments

Using a flat iron is pretty much the extent of my hair styling capabilities, although I can manage a simple bun or pony tail. Last week I came across Hair Romance where the author is on day 24 of posting 30 different hairstyles in 30 days. She will publish an e-book in June with styling [...]

Style: One Dress Three Ways

Posted by Amanda (wit & whistle) on May 16th, 2011 under Fashion Tags: , , , , ,  •  6 Comments

Ever since reading The Joy of Less I’ve been pondering my closet. Francine suggested building a simple wardrobe containing basic multifunctional pieces that can be spiced up with accessories. I think this dress is the perfect example! How would you wear it? AT THE OFFICE: 1 ASOS Ponti Dress from ASOS 2 Cropped Wool Tuxedo Jacket from J.Crew [...]
