A New Season

Happy Solstice Montrose dwellers, goers, and lovers alike. We're celebrating the looongest day of the year by announcing my collaboration with my favorite brand, DEANSLEY! Join me as I visit places & spaces around town styled in my favorite vintage pieces!

For my first post, I kept it close to home & stepped into one of our favorite neighborhood spots, Cafe Brasil. It’s a great place to grab a glass of wine and a tamale after work, or an iced horchata and croissant the morning after a night out. It was ever so convenient to sip a glass of rosé after our looong day of shooting;) At Deansley we love to pair the unexpected and don't believe pieces should be limited to a certain season. We did just that with a vintage band jacket & a slip dress. Slips are our game, and here we styled a cream silk slip with a nautical style band jacket and a silver pawn stamped concho belt. Ugh just look at how cool that button detail on the back tail is! Can’t forget your vintage Dooney & your Ray Ban shades. Finally, we "kicked" the look up a notch with our, oh so fancy, converse.

I almost forgot the bling!... Almost ;) We love the Navajo style silver pieces and here we featured some of our favorites: Right hand ring: marbled onyx inlaid in silver. Left hand ring: mother of pearl inlaid in silver. Silver stamped bangle cuffs, and antique double stranded rhinestone necklace.

Now go out and rock your best solstice outfit and enjoy this extra long summer day! Stop by Merchant And Market to check out the vintage Deansley pieces!

Hats Off To A New Year!

We are ready to Kiss 2016 goodbye! If you still find yourself in need of last-minute outfit inspo, here's a chic way to incorporate metallic gold and sequins with just the right amount of sparkle. We styled these playful skirts with a basic black camisole & a bustier bodysuit. Who said lingerie is only for the bedroom? These skirts shine all on their own so we kept the accessories minimal, but feel free to add sparkle at your own discretion ;) For a fun twist on a classic, we traded the traditional top hat for vintage derbies. 2017, we are ready for ya! Whether you dress up or down, wear what you love with confidence & you'll always be the best-dressed girl in the room! 

Thanks so much for visiting our blog! We are grateful for an amazing 2016 and super excited for all that is to come in the New Year! 

Cheers!
