Outfits: New Years Eve Style

December 22, 2015

IMG_3684edit

With the entertaining season nearing its end, New Years Eve is the perfect opportunity to close out 2015 with a bang!  Now’s the time to amp up the sparkle, color, and shine.  Whether you’re adding a bright lip color, sparkling accessories, or sequined pants (or all of the above!) – have a little fun with your style for the final party of the year!

Kirsty and I have styled several outfits from our favorite Seattle boutique, Queen Anne Dispatch (QAD).  You can find embellished dresses, stylish skirts, party pants, and many shining accessories to create the perfect NYE look here.  Not from the Seattle area?  Not to worry…they ship!  If you see something you love in this post, ask for Sabrina – she knows what we’re wearing.  Below you will find several of our favorite pieces styled for a festive and fun celebration.

IMG_3897editThese sequin pants are the life of the party!  I’ve worn them several times this holiday season; with a dressy top (like here) or dressed-down with a drapey tee and flats.  I’m even considering a sweater and sneaker pairing for my next casual night out with girlfriends.  I’m an advocate for getting more wear out of the special pieces in your wardrobe…believe it or not, sequins can get a lot of mileage!IMG_3875editIMG_3917edit

pants: Closet (QAD)
blouse: Madewell
jacket: Topshop (sale!!)
heels: Jimmy Choo (similar)
clutch: Clare V.
necklace: 31 Bits (QAD)
lips: LOC in ‘Wildest Dreams’

IMG_3664editAlthough I’m wearing my “go-to” black, I’ve added a pop of color in this look with red accessories mirrored in a red lip.  It’s fun and festive while not being too over-the-top.  In addition, the subtle brocade pattern on the skirt gives the outfit more depth, while the fur-lined wrap is the perfect, sophisticated topper for a chilly evening out.

All week I’ve been styling finds from Queen Anne Dispatch, my favorite local Seattle boutique. Everything in the store is 20% for their Friends & Family event TODAY; sale shopping all day, followed by a festive party from 6-10 pm (including DJ, small bites, and libations).  And, you don’t have to live in Seattle to be a friend!  Call the store today and ask for Sabrina – they ship!

Kirsty and I have had fun playing dress-up in preparation for the sale; however, there are great gifts to be found at ‘The Dispatch’ as well.  Candles perfect for hostess gifts, clever cards and stationary for your favorite teachers, and beautiful jewelry for those special girlfriends on your list.  Also, an array of luxurious lotions and colorful cosmetics to get you ready for the holiday party circuit (they also make perfect stocking-stuffers!)

What I’m Lovin’: A great tank AND a great sale!

November 3, 2015

Exciting news for shoppers who can appreciate unique finds, special treasures, and great gifts!  My favorite local boutique, Queen Anne Dispatch, is hosting a Friends & Family event that is worth stopping in for.  This week, Kirsty and I will be featuring outfit and gift ideas that can all be found during this amazing sale.

And, you don’t have to be a Seattle resident to enjoy 20% off these finds.  Come in Friday and enjoy music, drinks, and great company, in addition to finding all of the items featured in this post.  OR call Friday and ask for Sabrina – they ship!

I’m Lovin’ this special tank – the metallic pattern and special details make it perfect for a night out.  I’ve paired it here with a tulle skirt and heeled, peep-toe booties.  Metallic extras amp up the glam factor while the addition of the booties and moto jacket add an element of street style.

I also love the contrast of the tank when paired with destroyed denim and a moto vest, as shown here.  Red pumps add color and keep the look polished, yet the overall vibe is casual – a great way to get extra mileage out of your special pieces!

Each day I’ve intended to post here. I greeted t Each day I’ve intended to post here. I greeted the new year feeling inspired with a renewed intention for my account; to share with you the goodies I love, wear, try. Unfiltered and honest. That’s what I’m here for. But then...2021 arrived feeling much like her older sister, 2020. Instead, I’ve avoided a lot of social media; choosing to tune into various news outlets and into my family. So, HERE WE ARE. A post proving that I got dressed yesterday, wearing some of my new favorites (these @flamingosshoes white boots!) and steady stand-bys (year 2 wearing this @notmondaymercantile beanie on repeat). I took the kids out after school to run a couple of errands and connect with a business I love to support; we made plans for a spring share. Man, it felt good to get out! And now, I’m posting early before I’ve read the morning news. So, it’s happened.

Please stay safe, remain respectful, and true to yourself. Social media is a beautiful way to connect, create, and inspire...but can also be a dangerous rabbit hole of misinformation and an opportunity for people to behave in a way they ordinarily wouldn’t in person. Off my soap box. Have a lovely Friday!#wordsfrommyheart #realoutfitgram #flamingosshoes #whiteboots #notmondaymoments
Happy New Year my dear friends! I’ve missed you Happy New Year my dear friends! I’ve missed you all but enjoyed a nice long break. Heading back home after some snow time and I’m feeling re-energized (for now). Isn’t it funny how a change in the calendar can make you feel different? Are you a “new year, new you” kinda gal or more indifferent? I do like a good reset. Even though we’ll be doing more of the same early this year, I’m feeling more optimistic. For now. Cheers to 2021!

Also, posted in stories a nearly identical photo of us from last January at the top of @schweitzer_mountain. While the photos look the same, it’s fun to think that we now are Sandpoint homeowners! A positive outcome of 2020. #newyearonthemountain #snowbest #schweitzermountain #skifamily
Snow plus a Christmas sweater...I’m checking all Snow plus a Christmas sweater...I’m checking all the boxes this year. Thinking of everyone not able to spend time with loved ones this year. I’m so grateful for our little family but really missing my parents, siblings, nieces and nephews, my in-laws.  Over a year seems far too long to be apart; but we all need to continue to be safe. It matters. #christmassweater #christmas2020 #staysafestayhome #vintagesweater
Let’s make merry! Although holiday traditions ma Let’s make merry! Although holiday traditions may look different this year; we have an opportunity to get creative and share in new experiences. Like the new-to-me homemade marshmallow recipe, @thekirstyfiles and I have the pleasure of bringing to you in partnership with @pacific_place. We encourage you to invite a few pals to a zoom date, pop a bottle of bubbly, and create these delicious confections together. I promise they’re relatively fool proof (I pulled them off!) AND a sugar-high afternoon spent with friends (even virtually) will be sure to get you in the holiday spirit! Tune in to Pacific Place’s IGTV or YouTube to see the full tutorial, including my gaff when my marshmallow began moving into the “hard ball” territory (note: this recipe does require a candy thermometer and the ability to read it!). Cheers to making the most out of holiday 2020! #homemademarshmallows #pacificplaceseattle #craftingtogether
Ooooh...how I love a good shopping day with a frie Ooooh...how I love a good shopping day with a friend. The belly laughs, chit chat, and groans (as we tried on a number of jeans) provided the escape from reality that I needed. Sometimes you don’t realize just how much you miss something until you get to enjoy it again!
.

Other things I love? Soft luxury cashmere, designer denim that fits like a glove, and packable hats (yes, packable!). All can be found @willaseattle; a small, women-owned boutique located in the heart of the Queen Anne neighborhood in Seattle. Be sure to check out our stories as @thekirstyfiles and I share holiday-perfect gifts for your sister, mother, girlfriends...yourself! Lucky for Kirsty and I, our husbands also know the lovely owner, Liz (and she has our wishlists on file)!

Also very near and dear to my heart, Willa is the epitome of shopping local. The shelves are stocked with unique, small business designs; including many Seattle businesses. When you shop local, you not only support your community but also curate a look all your own!

Continued chronicles of dressing stylishly for you Continued chronicles of dressing stylishly for yourself, aka #stayathomestyle. Sure, 2020 may be the year of the sweatpant (combined with a sleeping bag-like coat, as seen here). And yes, a mask chain is this year’s hottest accessory. BUT I still take care to actually get dressed each day. And while lipstick may no longer be a part of my daily routine (I mean, was it ever??), it’s still important to be pulled together..if only for my own mental health. And even if no one else sees it but the grocery clerk. #whatmamaworemonday #sweatpantsseason

On the eve of Black Friday sales bonanza, I hope t On the eve of Black Friday sales bonanza, I hope to inspire, remind, urge, and even beg you to ignore all of the crazy cyber sales that have been creeping into your inbox for the past week and instead SHOP SMALL this holiday season. Yes, perhaps it’s less convenient and even less of a “deal” but this pandemic is putting an even greater strain on the small and local businesses that are the absolute life blood of our communities. And, in addition to supporting an entrepreneur and neighbor, you’ll likely find more creative, individual, and unique gifts for your loved ones by shopping a small business.
