Sneak Attack

sweater (GAP on SALE), puff (Piperlime SOLD OUT see SIMILAR), sneaks (Loeffler Randall c/o OMAR + ELSIE), denim (Paige), oxford (Target), bag (Clare Vivier, O+E), shades (Gucci), rings (Lagos, Anna Beck)

This is old hat...my love of SNEAKS that is.  It borders problematic my addiction to kicks but the reality is, they're comfy, they suit my lifestyle, and they're just my kinda vibe.  As is the sneak selection at Omar + Elsie...the gals are serving up a healthy dose of kicks be it Loeffler Randall or Joie (not to mention their fabulous THREADS).  Friendly reminder...mention s + s when you call Omar + Elsie and the gals will get you all squared away with FREE SHIPPING! 

Little side note, as I was trying to track down my puffer jacket on Piperlime (sadly sold out, but found this SIMILAR VERSION), I stumbled upon some pretty great SALE outwear (PLAID WRAP, RED CHECK, & FUR PARKA)--I know it's sounds ridiculous to exhaust any more efforts (nevermind money) on this b*#@h of a winter, but if there was ever a time to snag some OUTERWEAR, now would be it.  Shop some of the sale finds below as well as today's look.  Alright gang, cheers to a productive week---make it a good one!

Floral Stripes

blouse (JCrew ON SALE 20% OFF WITH CODE SHOPPINGTIME), skirt (JCrew ON SALE 20% OFF WITH CODE SHOPPINGTIME), necklace (Anthropologie ), booties (Tory Burch), bag (Clare Vivier c/o Omar + Elsie), tights (Target), shades (Armani), coat (JCrew 20% OFF WITH CODE SHOPPINGTIME), gloves (Target), cuff (Morton James)

This one coming to you from Lincoln Center shot just before heading to a day of meetings in NYC.  Forever a fan of print mixing, this pairing is one of my faves.  In my opinion, you simply can't go wrong with FLORALS & STRIPES...you just kinda can't.  

So sister was snowed in yesterday with the babes which meant sister blogged her little heart out.  Make sure you check out some more Print Mixing, Snow Day Sales, & a big thanks for the sweetest of words surrounding Our New Chapter...y'all are the best...truly.

Alright gang, I've got to get my hind up and go shovel a foot of snow so I can get my car off to Pure Barre.  We're getting more powder tonight for the love of Pete so I've gotta get myself in gear!  Y'all make it a good one...stay warm!

I Love Sundays

shirt, sneaks, jacket (Omar + Elsie), bag (Clare Vivier), jeans (Paige), beanie (SIMILAR ON SALE FOR $7!), shades (Ray Ban), rings (Lagos, Anna Beck)

It gives you permission to be lazy, loungy, and just take a load off--who doesn't love a Sunday?  And who doesn't love a most adorable boutique who carries designers such as Loeffler Randall, Clare Vivier, & Cynthia Rowley?  Why thank you, Omar + Elsie!  I'm an avid fan of shopping local here in Lex and supporting our slew of lovely boutiques--O + E is def at the top of my list!  And here's a little Sunday Love for all s + s readers...call my gals at O + E (tomorrow, closed today) and tell them s + s sent you for a 15% discount on your entire purchase.  Abby or Ann will be there tomorrow from 10-5:30 so be sure to give them a buzz at 859.231.6627 (they'll ship outta state, too)!  

Alright gang, make it a good one--cheers to relaxation on this Superbowl Sunday!  I'm web surfing a smidge and on the brink of adding to my sneak collection with These Bad Boys--I need an intervention!

Classic Corset

top (Generation Love, Morton James, avail online HERE), pants (J.Crew), heels (Isola c/o), bag (Clare Vivier, Omar + Elsie, avail online HERE), shades (Gucci c/o SmartBuyGlasses), ring (Lagos, Anna Beck)

I kinda let these HEELS do their thing and let the rest of this rig stay relatively minimal.  Here's what I dig about a good corset heel--yes, they're high, but they secure the hell outta your ankle and keep your feet all snug and in place if you will.  You all may be bored to tears with my black and white looks these days but I try to prevent the boredom and monotony by adding elements such as the HEELS and SPOTS.  Don't fret, I'm bringing color back here soon--in the meantime, check out some other lovely CORSETS below.  Y'all enjoy your day and make it a good one!

The Blackout

blouse (  Cynthia Rowley, Omar + Elsie, available online HERE, OBSESSED with the NAVY DRESS VERSION), pants (J.Crew), flats ( Loeffler Randall, Omar + Elsie, available online HERE), bag (Clare Vivier, Omar + Elsie, available online HERE), shades (Gucci c/o SmartBuyGlasses), cuff (Similar), necklaces (Target, LOVE THESE ACRYLICS), rings (Lagos, Anna Beck)

In celebration of the Omar + Elsie event I'm co-hosting tomorrow night with the uber talented Tiffany & the ever-so-lovely Shelby, I thought it fitting to post a look that's more or less head to toe, O + E.  Not one to shy away from COLOR, it's kinda unlike me to be in a full blown black look, but I've gotta say, I'm really digging the Black/B&W thing these days.  And with the details in this Flounce Blouse, it kicks up this all black look a notch.  

Would love love to see you all swing by the O + E event this Thursday--they'll be fabulous fall finds (as Abby just texted me they received a ton of new Clare Vivier & Loeffler Randall, leather jackets galore)--you name it--and with 20% off your entire purchase--kinda can't beat it!  

Alright gang, apologies for the delay in posting--we had a 12 hour power outage last night, but the kids were interviewed on the news, Candy Land was played umpteen times, and PB&J for dinn--so all in all, not too shabby all things considered!  Make it a good one and cheers to a lovely weekend!
