Designer Spotlight: Bevee Bags

by The Perennial Style | May 30, 2014 | Style, Uncategorized

“Wear it, clutch it, stash it…or ditch everything – but the detachable billfold – and dash!”

There’s nothing we love more than finding a new favorite brand, and because of this. we are so excited to introduce all of our readers to Bevee Bags (pronounced be-VAY). We discovered this company while we were in LA for Lucky FABB, and we were so impressed with the bags that we realized we had to share the collection with everyone!

The founders of Bevee are more than impressive and know exactly how to make the perfect, versatile wallet-on-a-chain! Sasha Muir is the founder of butter LONDON (obviously we all love this nail polish) and DT Levy is an International Fashion Executive and Consultant. Like we said, they know their stuff!

One of my constant problems is having a heavy purse full of unnecessary items, or going out with a clutch and leaving useful items at home. Turns out the Bevee bag is the solution! It’s a small and classic shape, but has the perfect pockets and slots for your credit cards, keys, mirror, license, insurance, iPhone, and lipgloss. What else could you need? Oh, and their logo is just so chic!

We opted for the 24/7 “Trifold” Sidekick, but we love the 24/7 “Continental” Sidekick equally as much. The quality of leather is great and the color selection is so fun! I love cross-body bags so I plan on wearing it with the gold chain, but it also makes for the perfect clutch!

You can expect to see us with our new bag all around Dallas! Sign up below to be on Bevee’s mailing list and to stay up to date on all Bevee news!

PS for M&H: One Dress, Two Ways

by The Perennial Style | May 29, 2014 | Style, Uncategorized

One piece every woman needs in her closet is a great red dress suitable for every occasion. This Milk and Honey dress is a must-have for our wardrobe. The shape is conservative yet feminine, and we love the open-back detail that provides a fun contrast to the high neckline in the front. Janie paired hers with a bold black and gold necklace and nude patent pumps for an evening look, while Blair paired hers with a denim jacket, chunky Alexis Bittar necklace, and lace up sandals for a casual afternoon look. Whether you choose to dress it up or dress it down, the opportunities to wear this are endless. Visit the Milk and Honey website to shop our looks!

PS for M&H: Two with Two

by The Perennial Style | May 28, 2014 | Style, Uncategorized

This week on Milk and Honey, we decided to style two (faux) leather tops with two seersucker skirts to show how these two pieces could be worn numerous times with different looks. Since Blair and Janie are the preppy ones of the three, they chose to wear the seersucker skirts. Blair paired hers with a bright ruffle top and Kate Spade accessories, while Janie paired hers with the leather top and a fun bauble necklace. Ellen wore her leather top with coral shorts, a turquoise necklace, and converse sneakers for a casual weekend look. Click here to shop our looks!

PS for M&H: One Shirt, Three Ways

by The Perennial Style | May 21, 2014 | Style, Uncategorized

For three sisters (or best friends) who are constantly borrowing clothes from each other’s closets, it only made sense for us to finally do a post on one piece three ways. We’ve collaborated with Milk & Honey to bring you a series of posts to show you how one item can be styled to fit any style or occasion. Since this is a normal occurrence in our household, we were thrilled to get involved. Now various people have various ideas of what a “neutral” color is, so let’s start off by saying any shade of pink is a neutral in our book! This magenta v-neck blouse is hands down the perfect staple for our closet. Janie decided to style the blouse with a pair of printed silk shorts for a casual look, while Ellen paired it with a black and white striped skort perfect for a night out. For a more festive occasion, Blair paired her blouse with a sequin skirt and statement necklace to add a little glitz and glam. See how each of us styled this must-have blouse below and check out Milk & Honey to steal all of our looks:

Feminine Florals

by The Perennial Style | May 20, 2014 | Style, Uncategorized

I find silk shorts to be one of the most unexpectedly feminine items in fashion right now. There’s something about the way they feel when you have them on that instantly make you feel flirty and girly. These Rebecca Taylor floral silk shorts are a new favorite of mine, and I owe that to the greatest shopper I know – thanks, mom! I decided to pair them with these amazing gladiator heels I picked up last week and this classic Lela Rose blouse for the Blaine Bowen Jewelry party at The Ritz. Try these or these for the look for less!
