Pretty Little Pearls

Vintage Scarf, Clu Sweater (similar here), Free People Flares, Vintage Earrings

I found this gorgeous pearl embellished scarf at a vintage expo a couple months ago. It is such an easy piece to throw on and and dress up a causal outfit. Have you scored any fabulous vintage finds lately?

Very Velvet

2012-12-06T07:46:00.001-08:00

Piko 1988 Velvet Dress (similar here), Forever 21 Heart Belt, Zara Heels (love this style), Vintage Earrings

I absolutely adore how velvet screams holiday! I felt like this skater dress shape was missing something, so I added a belt to break up the black and draw the eye to the waist. What do you guys think? Are you fans of velvet?

Lacy Green!!

2012-12-05T09:03:00.002-08:00

Pencey Lace Top (similar here), No-name Dress, Forever 21 Heels, Vintage Earrings

The color and pattern of this dress caught my eye right away, but the ruffle at the bottom was the ultimate seller!! Plus I feel the black details in the print are so simple to match back to! I hope you guys are having a great week so far!

Red and Cheetah All Over

2012-11-27T08:24:00.000-08:00

Top from Fawn Boutique SF, Zara Pants, Zara Necklace, Kurt Geiger Heels

Yes, yes, this is my FAV combination...red and cheetah! I'm obsessed with these pants because they feel like pajamas, but can totally be dressed up with heels and a cute top. What do you guys think--yay or nay on the cheetah pants? Would you rock them?

Lots of Love xoxo

Polka Please

2012-11-26T07:47:00.002-08:00

Top from Fawn Boutique SF, Forvever 21 Pants (similar here), Zara Heels (similar heels)

Looks like I'm into polka dot pants lately, huh?! LOL Polka dots are my absolute favorite print to mix with! If you are ever wary of what mis-matched prints to mix together, pair small dirty prints. I find them much easier to mix and match!

Lots of Love xoxo

Nike Jacket (similar here), Hanes Tee, American Eagle Denim (similar here), Rebecca Taylor Sneakers, Badgley Mischka Necklace (love this!)

This is definitely as casual as I get. I always try to throw on something sparkly so I still feel like "Darby", hence the rhinestone necklace LOL! I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving :) I know what I am thankful for...all of YOU!

Lots of Love xoxo

All That Glitters is Gorgeous!

2012-11-20T08:57:00.000-08:00

There is nothing that gets me more in the holiday party mood than sparkle and glitter! Above I included some GORGEOUS, shiny pieces I have been drooling over!

From top left to right: Nasty Gal Romper, ModCloth Jacket, ModCloth Sequin Skirt, Stella McCartney Pumps, Ted Baker Heels, Wallis High Heels

Two lovely celebs were recently spotted in looks that sparkle. Emma Stone's look (left) is most definitely a DO. She kept her look simple with one sequined piece, which allows us to focus on her beauty. She also kept her accessories minimal with classic black pumps and a single bangle. Now Jessica Biel on the other hand looks like she is drowning in sequins. Her look is so overpowering that it is impossible to focus on her stunning face! Plus the strappy heels, the long coat, and the large earrings are complete over kill. If she loses a couple of those pieces, this look could easily pass as a do :) What do you guys think? Is Jessica's look a YAY or a NAY?

Lots of Love xoxo

Hot Pants!!

Zara Top (similar here), Zara Pants, Kurt Geiger Bow Heels (love these), Ambiance Necklace (similar here), Ambiance Earrings (cute style here)

Don't these pants scream holiday party? I adore the zippers at the bottom so I can wear them tapered or unzipped for a more flared look!

Lots of Love xoxo

Red Leather For The Weather

2012-11-14T08:50:00.000-08:00

Target Moto Jacket, Topshop Romper (love this), Target Black Tights, Steve Madden Booties, Vintage Earrings

This romper is one of my favorite pieces in my closet so I am excited to transition it into fall (summer styling here). I find almost all dresses and rompers appropriate in colder months when black tights and boots are added. I was also stoked to find this faux leather jacket at Target, which makes the print on my romper really pop!

Lots of Love xoxo

Black On Black On Black

2012-11-12T08:17:00.000-08:00

Chiana Blouse (similar here), Zara Shorts, Forever 21 Heels, Forever 21 Bow Headband (similar here), Vintage Earrings

I am always on the look out for basic black items with a little twist--simple, but fun. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the detail on this shirt. You can't go wrong with puff shoulder detail and 3D flowers in my book!

Lots of Love xoxo

Bows Fo Sho

2012-11-09T09:33:00.001-08:00

Forever 21 Sweatshirt (LOVE this), Madewell Lace Shorts, Kurt Geiger Heels (similar here)

I am obsessing over graphic sweatshirts and sweaters lately. They give an adorable touch to a causal and comfy piece. Well and the fact that this graphic is a bow sealed the deal for me ;) Hope you guys have a lovely weekend!

Ballerina Toes

2012-11-05T07:36:00.002-08:00

Banana Republic Top (similar here), Frenchi Skirt, Kurt Greiger Heels, Zara Necklace (similar here)

This skirt was an absolute steal at Nordstrom. I never venture into the junior's section anywhere, but I made it up to B.P at my local Nordstrom and starting wondering why I never check it out! There were a ton of reasonably priced basics and party dresses! If you usually skip this section too, I would definitely recommend giving it a fair try!

Lots of Love xoxo

Spotted In Gold

2012-10-31T07:54:00.000-07:00

Forever 21 Blouse, Vintage Levi's, 67 Collection Booties (love these), Flower Clip from a Minnepolis Boutique (similar here)

I saw a blouse almost identical to this one at Zara a couple of months ago. I thought it was gorgeous, but a little pricey. While digging (and I mean digging) through racks at Forever 21 I spotted this version that was less than half the price! That is an example of a time I love F21, but I have just as many frustrating trips too. I have a love, hate relationship with F21. Do you guys know the feeling? Don't you feel like it is a little overwhelming sometimes?

Lots of Love xoxo

InVESTed In The LBD

2012-10-29T07:40:00.003-07:00

Target Dress (similar here), Chelsea Flower Vest (amazing style here), Zara Pumps (similar here), Vintage Earrings

I just love it when you find a LBD that is a no brainer! I found this dress at Target and it fit like a dream! I feel like the corset top gives it a little extra flair :) I also try to throw on this crazy vest whenever possible--beads, silk, tie-dye? YES PLEASE! LOL! I hope you guys had a fabulous weekend!

Lots of Love xoxo

Dress from Fawn Boutique SF, Charlotte Russe Heels (similar here and here), Earrings- gift from a fabulous friend (similar here)

For those of you who frequent my blog, (LOVE you BTW!) you know that I am obsessed with a local SF boutique called Fawn. They have amazing, unique pieces that are beyond reasonably priced.

Dress from Fawn Boutique, Kurt Greiger Pumps (similar here), Forever 21 Belt, Vintage Earrings

All of you know about my obsession with leopard print! I had to force myself not to throw in a pop of red (my FAV with leopard) Obviously this cute little party number was a no-brainer! Hope you all are having a fabulous week!

Lady Leopard

2012-10-23T07:40:00.000-07:00

Madewell Dress, Zara Fringe Boots, Forever 21 Necklace

This dress will be a great transition piece into fall and through winter. I just need to add black tights and I will be good to go! What other color palette would you suggest to throw in the mix other than black?

Lots of Love xoxo

Off To See The Wizard

2012-10-22T07:41:00.000-07:00

Madewell Dress, Kurt Geiger Heels,Vintage Earrings

I can't get over these shoes...actually I KNOW I will never get over these shoes :) They are like Dorothy's red slippers (but in blue, obvi lol) and are an absolute dream! Kurt Geiger, a London shoe brand, just opened their first US location in SF! Lucky for anyone not in SF they have an AMAZING collection online and are currently having an unreal fall sale! Make sure to check it out here!

Pumped Up Kicks

Bailey 44 Top, Forever 21 Skirt (similar here), Rebecca Taylor Sneaker Wedges, Express Earrings, Pink Forever 21 Necklace (similar here), Vintage Rhinestone Necklace

I felt like my style was way too girly to ever wear sneaker wedges until I spotted these! I feel like these perfectly combine the sneaker wedge trend with a feminine edge. It been a blast experimenting with all different ways to wear them :) Are you guys a fan of this trend? Have you jumped on the bandwagon too?

Lots of Love xoxo

Layer On Some Lace!

2012-10-17T07:49:00.001-07:00

Viereck Dress, Pencey Lace Top (similar here), Forever 21 Bow Heels, Vintage Earrings

I love this lace top because it adds interest and a little coverage to my outfit, whether I'm wearing a top or a dress. I also love how the lace detail really POPS against the hot pink! But I guess hot pink is always a "no-brainer" :)

Lots of Love xoxo

Darby

Rawwwwwwrrrr

Zara Coat, Target Dress (LOVE this style), Zara Heels (similar here), Jcrew Headband (similar here), Charlotte Russe Earrings (adorbs here), Jimmy Choo Sunnies

My absolute FAV color pop is red, especially with cheetah print (also seen here)! I love to treat cheetah print as a neutral. It is a blast to mix and match it with anything and everything! What do you guys think of treating cheetah print as a neutral? Yay or Nay?

I threw in the last photo since it was too silly to pass up. It is hard for me to stay "serious" for too long LOL! Have an AMAZING Tuesday lovers!

Lots of Love xoxo

Lovin' That Chambray

2012-10-15T09:14:00.001-07:00

Anthropologie Chambray Shirt, Anthropologie Skirt, Frye Boots, Kate Spade Sunglasses

Anthropologie is always dangerous for my wallet. Every style always has unique details that take the garment to the next level. I already have a basic chambray shirt, but the adorable pindots that appeared as I approached this top made it too cute to pass up! This is offically my new fav ;)

Lots of Love xoxo
