My Style: Chicwish x Arizona Girl

Dreamy is the word that comes to mind when you put on this Chicwish mild baroque embroidered dress in ivory and a pair of over-the-knee, lace up boots.  I am so impressed with the quality and the fit of the dress.  I recently just graduated and I had been searching for the ideal dresses for celebratory  gatherings and the ceremony itself.  When this dress (and another one I will showcase soon) arrived, I knew I had found the perfect special occasion dresses.  For all girls looking for the perfect party dresses, I definitely recommend checking out Chicwish.  I do have to say to go by the measurements that are stated on their website( and not by your usual size) because they are right on.  :) 

Also, at photoshoots lately I have been playing the most addicting playlist and I have received requests for the song list.  I added the playlist to the top of my blog to share with all of you as well!  I am in love with the new, the up-and-coming, and the ones that deserve to be remembered again.  Xoxo, Shelly

My Style: The Woods at Sunset

I'm loving this time of year when I can stroll in the woods and it's warm enough at sunset to wear a light romper and long cardigan.  It's so peaceful!  Notice the gorgeous tie-dye of the Other’s Follow romper with the drawstring gather and the pockets at the hips.  The material is soft and luxurious.  Next, you have to focus on the pretty ruffled hem at the base and at the sleeves of the cardi--beautiful design from Femmebot.  The knit material is delicate and yet full of life with sheer stripes.  I always love details.  Additionally for this styling, I selected the amazing Dame Harness Bootie in Sand by Koolaburra, specializing in beautiful leather designs.  These handsome, low-cut harness booties with a dipped front topline and stacked leather heel are so comfortable!  I selected a sleek, faux leather backpack that matched the booties nicely. Completing the outfit, I put on some chic sunnies, boho jewelry, and a floppy hat.

My Style: Urban Boho

Relaxed and yet chic--that's today's styling.  I'm wearing a beautifully cut dress with amazing texture, an impeccable dress for office attire with heels and a blazer or a perfect dress for weekend fun with Converse sneakers and a denim jacket.  I added round sunnies, silver rings, and a woven backpack for a little bohemian flair.  Sometimes simple is best.  This shoot was taken while on a walk around a local lake to find some peace in the madness of the final stretch of this semester.  So close yet so far to summer and relaxation.  Keep on keepin' on, y'all.  Xoxo, Shelly

My Style: Effortlessly Chic

This month I was honored to collaborate with some top-notch brands, including Viparo, TFNC London, and Veeshee.  First, I began this styling with a gorgeous gold, soft-as-butter leather skirt by Viparo.  The quality of the stitching, the design, and the lining is unsurpassed.  Viparo was founded in Sydney, Australia, in 2008, filling a niche with beautiful leather designs that are affordable.  Next, I added this TFNC monochromatic, baroque print blouse, making an exquisite combination when coupled with the leather skirt.  TFNC London is known for its glamorous, sophisticated designs, especially in dresses.  I discovered this pretty blouse and knew it would be a great addition to my closet.  Adding tall boots, a floppy hat, and tarnished gold jewelry, I was ready for a perfect weekend getaway.  See my review below of the marvelous weekender bag, a custom-made beauty by Veeshee.  I hope you enjoy discovering these quality items as much as I did!  Xoxo, Shelly

Veeshee Review:

Being a frequent traveler, it's always nice to have a bag you can count on and one you know looks good with every outfit (hey, for a true fashionista, that always matters--even when traveling).  This handsome tote is that bag!  Veeshee is a unique company that offers the opportunity for the customer to customize bags, pillows, and blankets with luxurious leathers, quality linens, and beautiful craftsmanship.  Below is the custom layout for my bag.  On the user-friendly website, you can select the cut of the bag, the color of leather, the outer material, and the lining. For my Tuscany Weekender, I chose the black linen for the exterior, the copper metallic linen for the interior (seriously gorgeous metallic), and the dark brown distressed leather for the base and straps.  I absolutely love my bag and will enjoy it for many, many years.  I give Veeshee an A+!  Definitely recommend checking out Veeshee here:  http://www.veeshee.com
