Good Morning readers, how fabulous is the color of this Amanda Uprichard dress?  I swoon over its beautiful and vibrant hue.  I know the peplum trend has been a bit overdone lately, but this color totally drew me in and put me back under the peplum spell.  Amanda Uprichard always produces her collections in bright and colorful hues, which is one of the main things I really love about her line.  Bright-colored tops and dresses are a weakness of mine.

To accessorize the look, I added the calf-hair clutch to give the look a transitional vibe and styled it with a pair a nude heels to elongate my legs.  I kept the rest of my accessories neutral so that nothing would compete with the color of the dress or the leopard print clutch.

P.S. I’ve got some exciting news for you!  I have a big photo shoot with Krystal Bennett of A Pinch of Lovely today for 225 and InRegister’s Avenue Rouge Runway Show this September 26th!

Good Morning readers, how about this stunning back necklace by Reagan Charleston Design! Is it gorgeous or what! I’m so excited to finally share this look with you because this is my first collaboration with local boutique, Haus131 and my first time wearing a back necklace. Katie Rae Bowen, the owner of Haus131 helped me pick this dress.  She did such a great job of helping me find the right dress to suit my personal style and she even did me the honor of naming it after me.  I absolutely love the color combination of this maxi and I especially love the design on the back of the dress which draws attention to the necklace.  What do you think? Would you rock a back necklace?

P.S. If you’re wondering why I’m barefoot, it’s because I didn’t wear the best shoes for climbing over fences and rocky railroad tracks and that’s what we had to go through to get to that spot.  Also,  I named this post the Lion King because that was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw these photos, not to mention that the pendant on the necklace is a lion’s head.

Good Morning readers, what did you think of yesterday’s look with the purple head wrap?  Do you think it’s a style that you’d be willing to try? I loved the purple turban head wrap so much that I decided to branch out and try all sorts of different headbands starting with this embellished one from Loft. I love how it looks cool and stylish with this simple pair of denim shorts and a white tee and easy boho-chic styled with a maxi dress.  You can even wear it with an up-do with a cocktail dress to a formal event.
