Romping Around

Queen Bee — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 04:25:45 +0000

Last year, I became a romper convert and I can’t wait to add to my collection this spring. Forever 21 has an awesome collection right now and they are all very affordable. (Yey!)

One of the reasons I love rompers is their versatility. You can wear them with sandals for a casual look, heels for a dressier look, or even over a swimsuit as a cover up.

Will Work for Shoes

If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve probably seen my tweets about job hunting. I graduate from school in May and am actively looking for a job to start my career (scary!). Acting like a grownup means dressing like a grownup, which in my mind means one word: boring. I know chic, fun, and professional fashion is out there. It’s just going to take some searching to find. I’ve started keeping a mental catalog of my favorite professional chic boutiques to hit up once I receive that first paycheck.

Must Haves for Fall

Queen Bee — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 04:57:10 +0000

I know all the big sites always do a fashion forecast of what is going to be big in the upcoming season, but who needs someone telling your what you’re supposed to want! Here’s what I want to wear this fall:

1. Corduroy Boyfriend Pants

Corduroy always reminds me of fall. It’s nice and warm for the crisp fall weather and the different colors and cuts add some variety to a predictable denim wardrobe.

2. Thermal Leggings

On especially chilly days, cute thermal leggings will be perfect for a sweater dress outfit.

3. Oversized Cardigans

I love this trend, maybe because it feels like you are wearing a comfy bathrobe all day.

So Over Skinny Jeans

Queen Bee — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 04:35:23 +0000

I never had the toothpick legs to pull off the skinny jean trend, so maybe I’m just bitter. Regardless, I am happy this trend is on its way out. Over in France, normal looking baggy pants are making a comeback (as opposed to harem pants or those stretch cotton yoga pants). Finally!

It’s amazing how they can wear such baggy clothes and still look so chic.

If you’re looking for your own pair, try these from Mod Cloth. I’m so in love with the button cuffs.

Futurama-rama

You have nooo idea how excited I am for the re-return of Futurama! To give you an idea of my love for the show, my two dogs’ names are Leela and Kif.

Animated Fashion

Queen Bee — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 04:31:10 +0000

A little known fact about me- I looooove cartoons. (I’m actually writing an enormous paper on cartoons for one of my classes this semester!) We don’t usually think of them as fashion icons, but they are a great source of style inspiration.

Marge at ModCloth

Dress, shoes, and necklace from ModCloth

Marge has a unique and eclectic style. She’s always in a bold green dress, classic red necklace, and practical red flats. It’s hard not to look like a Christmas ornament in green and red, but this outfit from ModCloth pulls it off.

Lucy at Lulu’s

Dress, shoes, and sunnies from Lulu’s

Lucy is one of my favorite cartoon characters. She’s smart, crafty, and always in her cute blue dress. This outfit from Lulu’s is a modern take on the Peanuts classic. Even if you aren’t a fan of this outfit, how can you not love those shoes?!

Leela at Lulu’s

Top, jeans, boots, and bracelet from Lulu’s

Leela from Futurama is an alien dressed to kick some butt. They make fun of her “boring” fashion on the show, but you can never go wrong in a white top and jeans.

French Fall

Here’s a look at Kookai‘s fall collection. Lots of comfy layers, which is just my style.

I’m in love with this store. If only they’d open one in the US!

Aren’t those sweaters gorgeous?

Sparkle in Sequins

Art Decadence — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 04:44:30 +0000

A trend that always seems to be around, whether in the background or strutting and striking a pose on some of the hottest celebs, is sequins. As pointed out in this WhoWhatWear post, sequins have definitely been around for a long time – but we can see why we just can’t bear to let them go.

From whowhatwear.com

Of course, who doesn’t like to sparkle and shine – to catch everybody’s eye and live in the limelight? Sequins and glitter add that twinkle that can make anybody feel like somebody. And it’s simple too – the easiest way to glam up an old outfit is to add a touch of glitz. (Even if we are now taking a huge step forward from just outerwear!)

Over a plain tee or unpatterned top, this waistcoat could really add shine to your evening:

Or you could go for slightly more coverage with a blazer:

There’s also tops

Dresses

Skirts

Even hotpants

And I’m sure you all know by now of sequin leggings

So what do you all think, too much sparkle or just right? Personally, I don’t think I’d ever have the confidence to wear those hotpants! But, I do like the blazer and waistcoat.
