Good Morning readers, how stunning is the Crystal Knot necklace?  It is by far my favorite piece of jewelry by Dotted Tusk, and I’m so thrilled that one of you will get to win one.  When I saw first pictures of the necklace, I thought it was beautiful, but once I saw it in person, I knew hands down that I had to have it.  Caroline really outdid herself this time!  It just looks and feels so rich and luxurious.  I feel like a million bucks when I’m wearing it!  Plus it’s handmade to order, which makes it extra special.

 The Crystal knot necklace is exclusive to Dotted Tusk and can only be specially ordered and personally made for you, which is exactly why it would make an excellent Christmas gift.  I highly recommend it! If you’re interested in ordering the Crystal Knot necklace, you can contact the owner and designer, Caroline Gladney at dottedtusk@gmail.com.   Have a great day!

Outfit: Black dress shorts (Urban Outfitters old but similar here), Cobalt blue blouse (Ann Taylor old but similar here),  White blazer (Forever 21),

The Rhonda wedges in black and tan (Dee Keller),

Jewelry: San Benito pendant necklace (VSA available at Park Lane in Lafayette), Gold cross necklace (Love),  The Tale of Three Stones ring (Zariin), Michael Kors watch

Hello everyone, I hope some of you were able to benefit from yesterday’s post (Embellished Laundry + Grad Gifts)  on graduation dresses and gifts.  Please let me know if you have questions about any of those items!  I’ve already gotten a few calls about some of them, and I truly love hearing from you.

Anyway back to this outfit,  black and blue is one of my favorite color combos during the fall and winter.  Well, I missed wearing those two so much that I decided to figure out a way to incorporate those colors into a summer look.  I just feel so sophisticated and put together when wearing that color combo.  What do you think of way I styled it here?  I honestly love it and think the white boyfriend blazer makes this outfit look effortlessly chic and really allows the blue to pop.  Oh and how can I not mention these wedges!  These are probably my favorite Dee Keller shoes because they’re so practical, yet so unique!  I know I’ll get such a good wear out of them because they’re a neutral color, comfortable and just tall enough to wear with my bell bottom jeans.

See how I styled Black and Blue together with Dl1961 coated denim and the same cobalt blouse in the picture below.  Click on the picture to see the actual post.

P.S.  I’ve decided to extend the deadline of the $100 Park Lane Gift Card Giveaway until this Sunday, May 20th at 11:59 p.m. because I feel like I didn’t give you all enough time to enter last week!  So here is another chance for you to win!  Just click the ad below to see how to enter!

Vibrant Prints by Nicole Miller

April 2, 2012

Photos by: Max Zoghbi

Outfit: Nicole Miller printed one shoulder dress from Park Lane,  The Dee Keller Fairley heel in nude available at Park Lane

Accessories: Cat eye sunglasses (Urban Outfitters), Black fringe purse from Brenchley 

Heatwave lipstick (Nars)

Jewelry: Pink and yellow rope bracelet (Tory Burch), Gold cuff (Banana Republic) old, but similar (here)

About this dress:  I picked this bright “flowy” dress out in October of 2011 at Dallas market while we were scoping out the Nicole Miller Spring 2012 collection.  I just fell in love with the vibrant colors and thought it would be perfect for Spring Break as a possible Easter outfit!  Since there was so much going on with the dress, I felt it was best to pair it with a neutral heel.  I think the Dee Keller Fairley fit that characteristic perfectly! What do you think?  By the way if you’re not in to dresses this print also comes in a loose fitted top and romper by Nicole Miller!

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend.  My weekend was long and full of work, but Dee Keller turned it into a great weekend when she informed me of her new shipment of handbags from her factories Italy.  I met with her bright and early Sunday morning to pick one up and let me tell me you… This purse is absolutely fabulous!  It is a beautiful tan, structured leather tote with exquisite detailing including her DK logo in gold hardware.  You will see it in numerous of my outfits posts to come, but until then here are a few pictures below!

 If you’re interested in purchasing this gorgeous handbag, please contact Dee Keller at Deekeller4@gmail.com or her daughter Brighton at Brighton.keller@gmail.com.  You can check out Brighton’s blog to see how she has already styled this purse.

P.S.  I know this outfit is a tad pricey, but make sure to follow my Impress for Less board on Pinterest for the Best Bargain Buys under $100!

Have an excellent day!
