Get “Bow-ed” Over

We keep spotting some of our favorite celebs in bow belts…we mean not only bow belts, but paired with dresses, high waist pants and skirts. If you happen to be a “bow-girl” then you share in the excitement of an updated version of this super feminine, sweet, and whimsical accessory!

The nice thing about this trend is that it is totally do-able …we’re talking DIY fashionistas!

Today's Class: DENIMOLOGY 101

The fashion experts all say that denim is still the hottest trend for summer and going into fall–but they’re not talking about jeans; they are talking about denim jackets and shirts! So take note, it appears this is more than just a one-hit--retro-inspired-fashion-wonder. It is a super style phenomenon.

Super Simple Style

Sometimes you’ve gotta love super simple style. These girls got it just right. This is a great look to try and should only take a couple of minutes! We love it paired with cut-offs and a blazer.

We Love Playful SKirts

We Love Thrift Stores

When we first started reading style blogs, we were-- literally fascinated-- with the way bloggers would wear thrifted or vintage items without looking like Mildred, the previous owner. We would have never thought of our styles as vintage, maybe a few pieces here or there could pass but let's be honest -- current trends make our hearts double beat. always loved the way some girls can make a vintage dress look so modern and beautiful.

Not to get all blogmotional on you, but thinking back a few years ago we would have never picked up this dress. We would have never thought "take some inches off the bottom, grab a wide belt and we've got ourselves an outfit." And yet a few weeks ago, We picked this dress up and knew immediately how to wear it. More often than not We still feel like the girl who looks longingly onto blogs, thinking "can I do that?" So as a reader of style blogs, We say thank you to all the girls who inspire us and so many others to try something new. Turns out that you can teach an old blog new tricks. {j&K}

We love Absolutely beautiful details !!
