The Canadian Tuxedo

The Canadian Tuxedo

J Crew Denim Shirt

With denim being one of the top trends of 2014, the Canadian Tuxedo is of course my favorite look for a casual weekend afternoon. Though denim on denim was once a huge fashion faux pas, this duo is now one of the easiest ways to look chic and relaxed with minimal effort. I like to pair varying shades of denim to allow more depth to the look, so I wore my light chambray J Crew blouse with my ultra-soft dark Paige flares and tossed on a favorite Gucci belt to break up the hues. See how I styled my denim on denim look below and be sure to try out this double denim combo for yourself!

Jumpsuits have become one of my favorite styles to wear recently, and whether it’s the retro vibe or simply the ease of getting dressed, I keep catching myself stocking up on these onesies. Since I am on the shorter side (and like to fake off my height with 5 inch platforms), flared jumpsuits are definitely my preferred fit. A tapered leg can give such a sophisticated look, but for any jumpsuit rookie, I totally recommend a flared leg. I love this midnight blue one I picked up recently (similar: this or this), as the loose shape and fit is insanely comfortable and perfect for those “I have no idea what to wear” days. The next jumpsuit I plan on snagging is either this one or this one by DVF – hands down, the most flattering ones I’ve seen yet! See how I styled mine below and check out my list of favorites beneath!

flared jeans and floral topFinding a blouse to wear in the Dallas summer heat isn’t always easy, which is why I’m loving this paisley flowy blouse I picked up at Milk & Honey. The cut out sleeves and open-back make it airy and lightweight, perfect for a summer Texas night! Something about this top reminded me of the 70s, so I paired it with my Lovestory flares and my favorite aviators to top off the vibe. As I mentioned yesterday, I’m trying to get back into the groove of jeans, so stocking up on fun tops will definitely be my shopping goal! Check out my look below:

Elizabeth Hurley & Leonard Lauder

This past Wednesday, I had an incredible experience at the Estee Lauder event at Neiman Marcus NorthPark to unveil the new Estee Lauder shop within the store. After a successful 64 year partnership, Leonard Lauder graced Dallas with his presence at this unveiling to share a little history of the company and to showcase the Estee Lauder compact museum, which has only been displayed once prior. Leonard was accompanied by company spokeswoman Elizabeth Hurley, who was even sweeter and more beautiful in person than one could imagine! Since Neiman Marcus is Leonard’s favorite department stores by far, he debuted his newest lipstick exclusive to the store – Neiman Marcus Red. Leaving the event with a hand signed gift bag from Mr. Lauder filled with the exclusive lipstick and an engraved compact with my initials was the perfect keepsake from such a special event. To share a bit of Texas with this power duo, Leonard was given a cowboy hat and Elizabeth received a bouquet of yellow roses. Take a look at our pictures from the event and be sure to stop by the newest shop this weekend!

Finding a way to look cute and feel comfortable at the same time is the ultimate win in our book, which is why we are loving these rompers from Milk and Honey! The loose-fitted shape keeps it playful and cozy, while the drawstring waist cinches it in to keep a feminine shape! Blair paired her charcoal romper with a Kendra Scott statement necklace and wedges, while Ellen paired hers with a bold gold necklace and edgy gladiator sandals.
