WHITE WINTER

Me wearing a skirt in January should not be news to you... I'm big on scrapping conventions and taking risks year round. In my defense, it's 70 degrees today. And I don't own white pants. Maybe that's something I should invest in since I can't depend on weather so unpredictably pleasant that it's disturbing for the rest of my life. I'm wearing another knit sweater from da FABULOUS STAINS, and this one has a hood. Check it out here, $20!

I'm not a pearl person. Really. Something about a strand of pearls seems so conservative and square to me. I also have a terrible habit of assuming all pearl necklaces are really just cheap costume jewelry, so it leaves the impression of being tacky. Which makes no sense at all, because I don't believe in spending thousands (or even hundreds) of dollars on jewelry, and my pearls are fake, and I'm a huge fan of tacky everything. Sometimes I can't understand myself! Perhaps my distaste for pearls comes from me just not liking the way they look and absolutely nothing to do with how much they cost. All that said, I'm fond of pearls on a gold chain. Just not in a strand. Maybe this is just a phase and next year I'll be so into pearl strands that I track the tag "pearl" on Tumblr and reblog millions of pictures of them and eventually start a fan club on Facebook. PEOPLE CHANGE, believe it.

QUITE ALL WHITE

CHANGE OF PACE! I've gone from all black to all white in less than 48 hours!! This is either a cause for alarm OR celebration but I can't decide. All I know is that I feel so peaceful wearing a pure palette. It's far too warm for a jacket here in Vegas (shockingly enough I still don't own an obligatory white blazer), but that's okay because I settled for a creamy scarf instead. Can't get enough of that crochet crop-top!

5 WAYS TO WEAR A BETSEY JOHNSON DRESS

It's safe to say that most girls would probably look at this Betsey Johnson dress and think, "what a wonderful frock to wear at next year's Winter Formal!" And they'd be dead right- it is a wonderful frock. But why limit yourself to a school dance for which you'd wear such a lovely little thing? What a lot of men and women alike don't realize is that just because something's fancy doesn't make it formal! And even better yet- just because something's formal doesn't mean it can't be worn casually!! Using just one teal Betsey Johnson tulle dress and an array of carefully chosen accessories, I crafted five completely separate looks that ANYONE can imitate with the right amount of fashion fodder.



LOOK ONE: TEEN WITCH





FROM TOP TO BOTTOM:
Hat- Urban Jungle
Cape- Party City
Socks- Forever 21
Pumps- Salvatore Ferragamo

LOOK TWO: FREE-SPIRIT





FROM TOP TO BOTTOM:
Hat- August, Macy's
Scarves- Vintage
Bag- Betsey Johnson
Shoes- Nine West

LOOK THREE: PUNK PRINCESS





FROM TOP TO BOTTOM:
Bowler hat- Saks Fifth Avenue
Leather jacket- Diesel
Doc Martens- Buffalo Exchange


LOOK FOUR: RETRO DIVA







FROM TOP TO BOTTOM:
Scrunchie- Vintage
Sunglasses- Oakley
Blazer- Parao, Vintage
Heels- Ralph Lauren

LOOK FIVE: JARETH MASQUERADE





(This one's for all my readers who take fashion cues from Sarah in Labyrinth.)

FROM TOP TO BOTTOM:
Blazer- Forever 21
Belt- Vintage
Socks- ICING
Heels- Ralph Lauren


Not every garment must be worn in the way it was originally intended. And who knows what the designers' original intentions were anyway? Perhaps Betsey specifically visioned this dress being worn to a cosmic roller disco. So next time you're getting all dolled up for a special event- don't just wear the dress, own it! Because any creative conglomeration of styles you put the pizazz into is YOURS TRULY.

ESPADRILLES BY NINE WEST

Today I'm summoning the spring time with my Espadrille heels by Nine West! Here in Las Vegas the weather is already warm and breezy, and these wedges are perfect for romping around at a picnic in the park. The platform is made of cork and straw, so they're light as a feather and match almost everything. Can't wait to show off these babies all summer long!
