Style Collage: Sky Blue

I love all sorts of colors! Recently however, I decided to make a collage centered around the color sky blue. Usually pastels and other lighter shades aren't a go to favorite of mine, but I loved how sky blue looked so chic and glamorous, while stile being able to give a bit sporty. First, I actually went to find a fabulous background. I picked this beautiful blue sky. Next, I went on to the clothes. I chose a pretty sky blue beachy top and some dainty blue suede heels to start with. For the pants I picked out some cute straight leg pants from National Jean Co. Afterwards, I found some glamorous milky sky blue earrings. For the make-up, I picked a blushing pink lipstick and a silky eyeshadow palette. Here is the complete collage.

Style Collage: All Things Bright, Bold, and Beautiful


I love all things bright, bold, and beautiful and was inspired to create this look. I started by picking out two items with bold prints. One was an Oscar de le Renta shift dress and the other was a houndstooth sequin skirt. Next, I quickly grabbed a simple black tank to pair with the glittery skirt. Afterwards I decided to scoop up some bright accessories. I red glittery clutch, red and gold flower ring, and a red and gold bangle were my options. Unable to choose, I decided to get them all. This made the outfit perfectly mix-and-match capable. For the lips, a red color was a must. The eye catching gold container helped me pick out this lipstick. Lastly, red patent pumps became the finishing touch to this bold look. Here is the complete collage.

Style Collage: Indie Edge

Today I was feeling kind of indie, so humming to the sweet sounds of Vampire Weekend I put together a fantastic edgy indie look. I started with this sweet top from ModCloth. Next I picked out a pair of jeans with a vintage vibe by Joe's Jeans. I grabbed a pair of edgy heels by Dollhouse after I was done. For a bit of an indie vibe I scooped up an adorable sliver feather necklace with a slight pop of color by Lucky Brand.  For earrings I found some laid back hoops from American Eagle. Lastly I picked up an eyeshadow palette from Neiman Marcus and some Studio Gear Lipstick. Here is the complete collage.
