Naty Grams

Happy Wednesday!  It's time for another round of Naty Grams.  It's definitely been awhile since I did this post.  These are my favorite most recent ones.  Make sure to follow me on instagram @natybaby  if you aren't already :) Hope you like and make sure to check out the end of this post for some fun info!

I got to meet the stylish and lovely Nicole Richie at the Style Tag event last week in NYC.  I only got to talk to her for a moment but she was super sweet.  Style Tag is a new fashion app where you can upload images of yours and others street style and tag where items are from to help make it easier for people to purchase those items.  



Some pretty holiday sparkle!  Gold cuff from Oia Jules , Green cuff from Daisy Gem , Necklace from Diana Ho Designs  and Watch from Fossil .  I highly suggest joining Klout  if you haven't already!  They determine your influence on the internet by linking all of your social media platforms and/or blog.  It's a great way to connect with others and they also give out really amazing klout perks like this watch!  Hurry and sign up!

Now for some fun news:  I am now a style ambassador for a really cool fashion app called Covet Fashion .  It's basically a virtual closet where you get to buy items from within the app to create virtual looks.  There are different events every day that you can join and create looks for according to their theme.  In some games, you win prizes within the app like an article of clothing or accessory to add to your virtual closet.  But other games, there are real life prizes that will be sent to you!  The winners are determined by users voting on their favorite looks. 

I am going to be hosting an in app event called Urban Prepster.  Here is a brief description:

 "An urban prepster is classic yet trendy.  Coordinate conservative separates with edgy finishes.  Possibly pair a crisp button down blouse with a leather jacket and chunky jewelry."

  The game goes live tomorrow 12/12 at 12pm PST and ends 12/15 at 12PM PST.  Voting results will be available on 12/16 at 12PM.  Let me know if any of you download the app and decide to play! 

Hope your day is amazing!

Gold Accents With Tommy Hilfiger

Today's post includes another one of the items on my rack at Tommy Hilfiger  at the Garden State Plaza.  It's a simple LBD that I chose because it works for so many different occasions: work, dinner, happy hour, holiday parties, etc.  A black dress never goes out of style :) 

I always pay attention to the little details, so these tiny gold buttons are really what caught my eye on this dress.  It's so simple, but the great thing about that is it leaves room for endless styling options.  I'm a sucker for black and gold which is no surprise as you've all seen in many of my previous posts.  I wanted to make this look very classy and holiday ready.  You don't always have to wear the obvious red or sparkly dress during this time of year.  You can take something simple and create a bolder look with your accessories.  Since I typically do statement necklaces, I decided to wear these hanging gold earrings and put my hair to the side to really let them stand out.  I wore these stud trim pumps and added this gold clutch to dress it up even more.  I got this bag last year and also used it during the holiday season. 

If you follow me on instagram , then you've seen all the sneak peek pics from my rack that I've been posting.  Some of you have already mentioned that you've gone to the store to see my mannequin and picks.  Thank you so much for that!  I'll be sharing more soon :)

Hope your day is fab!

Vibrant Winter Hues

From the snow on the ground, I'm sure you can guess how cold it was outside. I swear when I first walked out of the house it was not that bad, but once we started shooting the wind came so forcefully!  It was too cold to look directly at the camera the whole time. I tried my best, but after 5 minutes I threw in the towel lol

I was in a color blocking mood when thinking of ways to style this skater skirt.  I love the shade of blue and really wanted to create a bold look.  Blue has been such a big color trend this season.  This burnt orange top has been working it's way into my outfits many times lately.  I still can't believe I scored it for $11 on sale!  It definitely made this outfit pop so much more and I really love these two colors combined.  Truthfully, I almost went with a black top at first to do a simple black and blue look, but it was too boring.  I knew that I wanted to wear this necklace, and since it has both of these colors, it was the perfect piece.  I definitely needed to wear a jacket, so to edge this up, I added one of my favorite faux leather ones.  The studded clutch also added another element as well.  I definitely want to wear this skirt again when it gets warm!

I recently did a gift guide on Fearless Fashionista  so make sure to check it out if you need some last minute ideas.  Happy Friday loves and I hope that you all have an amazing weekend!

Walking In A Winter Wonderland

Over the weekend, we got a little winter wonderland.  I went to a blogger brunch and came outside to this!  I've always wanted to do a shoot in the snow and despite the cold, it was fun.  The inner child in me really wanted to build a snowman!  Let me just say I do not always walk in the snow in heels because I would bust my behind.  I wear my rain boots and then switch into my heels when I get to wherever I have to be :)
