Silk Stripes


JCrew Romper (last worn here). Alice + Olivia Jacket. Vintage Blouse. Alexander Wang Bag (currently on my wish list). 
Fenton Necklace. Michael Kors Watch. Forever 21 Heels.

I have made it my mission to make use of the items in my closet that don't get as much love as they deserve. Take this romper for instance, it was last worn a year ago during my summer trip to NYC, and that my friends is a shame! I simply added a little leather to the mix and this silk number instantly became city chic.

So have you enjoyed the Glitter Guide this week or what?! I'm pretty proud of our team, their dedication and all the late night hard work. They seriously rock. I've enjoyed the interviews and posts I've been working on as well. As a huge jewelry lover, today's post on JewelMint was especially fun to write (you can check it out here), and fun fact: my friend contributes to the JewelMint Blog!

I am really enjoying your blog. I can totally relate to everything you post especially today's about not wearing all of our treasures. I find myself doing that all the time, but will try through your motivation. Keep up the good work here and on Glitter Guide. You are ALL doing a phenomenal job!

I am incredibly coveting your jacket. I love the drapeyness of it, even though it's leather. So perfect.
