I ran all over Las Vegas during the day in this oufit to shop, but we never managed to get photos in it so I wore it again once we got back home to Denver.  It was the perfect 80 degree day.  This Elizabeth and James square tee was basically a lifesaver and I wore it over and over again, combining it with Abercrombie & Fitch sweatpants on the plane, J Brand jeans for breakfast, and of course denim shorts and tights.  I love how huge it is and the big arm holes tend to not restrict my movement too much.  It is also sheer so I can show off my little leopard print lace bralette underneath. 

My boyfriend bought me these awesome blue sunglasses from the Chanel boutique in Las Vegas.  I fell in love with the color.  I was originally looking for a black pair, but of course you never find what you are looking for.  He also bought me this Chanel necklace.  We have a tradition during our travels of buying at least one Chanel necklace during each trip.  I can remember what city we bought all the necklaces in, but this one is sorta different from the rest of my collection because it is black.  It is going to accessorize so many casual outfits and also some dressy ones.  I love my white pearl necklaces, but sometimes it is difficult to utilize them with everyday ensembles. 

This suede bucket bag was a neat little sale find off of Shopbop.  I really liked the colors and pattern on it and the fact that it was tiny.  It is perfect for the small amount of things I end up carrying around during the day.  The brand is called Something Else and I find it to be pretty good quality.  This bag will also be great for accessorizing my casual outfits.

This is one of my casual bohemian outfits.  I lived in this Nightcap Clothing motif vest last summer, throwing it on over all of my tanks.  It has huge pockets and leather fringe.  I can never resist fringe.  You can wear this vest upside down as well if that makes any sense, changing the V of the leather cutout back to point up instead of down.  I will wear it that way next time.  The last time I wore this vest was last summer in Aspen shopping with my friend Christina.  It has some good memories.  Nightcap Clothing has always been one of my favorite brands.  I was surprised that this vest got marked down so much since I find it pretty irresistible. 

I paired it with this RVCA ribbed tank dress that you have seen me wearing before on Fashion Snag.  In fact, last time I wore this I paired it with yet another fringe vest, a leather one by Of Two Minds.  It is a great basic tank dress to have in your closet, but a little bit sheer so I wore my leopard bralette from Hanky Panky underneath.  This little bra was pretty cheap at Shopbop and it is ultra comfy.  You cannot go wrong with Hanky Panky lingerie.  It is all comfortable. 

The Rick Owens ribbed wool leggings were a snag during the Christmas sales at Net-a-Porter.  They are oh so soft and very stretchy.  The seam detailing is amazing.  They are a little sheer so I wore the longer tank dress by RVCA to cover my butt.  Sometimes wool can be itchy, but I guess the wool in Italy is a little different if you know what I mean.  I wore a long tassel necklace by R.J. Graziano that I wore before on the blog with a leather fringed vest.  This necklace is a great costume piece of jewelry that you can mix and match with many things.  I always like to have plenty of fun jewelry to spice up my outfits.  I feel like the fringe on the necklace matches the fringe on the vest and I am okay with that since I like fringe so much.  R.J. Graziano makes some great quality pieces and you can usually find a sale on Gilt so make sure to join. 

Last but certainly not least, I wore my Brian Atwood mauve suede slouchy button back ankle boots.  They are almost a light pink color and very different from my other shoes.  They remind me of something an 80s Barbie might wear.  They have a button in the back so I think you can unbutton it and wear the shoes with a little less slouch.  I will have to try that next time. I snagged these on the Outnet and I wore them before on the blog with Nightcap Clothing lace inset leggings.

Dior Bonnie Stamped Croc Wedge Sandals

Dior Bonnie Stamped Croc Wedge Sandals in Black - Snagged from Dior boutique in Aspen, Colorado for $1150 Retail

KAIN Label Crop Top Tee in Black - Snagged from BunnyHug.co.uk for $83 Retail

American Apparel Red Afrika Jersey Mini Skirt - Snagged off Gilt.com for $15 (Retail: $30)

Ben-Amun Multi Chain Choker - Snagged off Gilt.com for $210 (Retail: $470)

To say I have a thing for crop tops would be an understatement.  Almost every top I add to my cart from Shopbop is cropped and usually sheer.  Kain label makes some of the best tops, but make sure you dry clean them.  I washed one once on cold and did not dry it, but it never looked the same.  I blame the 10% silk fabric component.  These Dior Bonnie Wedges are so comfortable, yet tough at the same time.  They are perfect in tricky bar situations with friends who are always close to spilling their drinks.  It hasn't happened to me yet, but I have had a few close calls.  Multi chain necklaces are my go to jewelry pieces for every outfit.  Ben-Amun makes some of the best costume jewelry and if you can catch a sale on Gilt Group you will be a happy shopper!  This American Apparel Afrika skirt leaves nothing to the imagination and I like that.  Why hide behind your clothes? 

Happy 4th of July!

I've been mountain biking, walking my dogs, and enjoying the beautiful Denver weather for the past week.  Oh, I have also been shamelessly indulging in all the lovely shoe sales going on at the moment.  Summer really is my favorite time of year.  I had to try out this whole leopard print tight trend so I bought these tights about a month ago from ASOS.  I wanted to do something quirky and different with them so I pulled out my Cynthia Vincent Iris Wedges I snagged off Gilt Group last summer.  They have beautiful rope lace up detailing that really contrasted with the tights.  It was so dark when we took these photos, which made the leopard print tights stand out even more.  I snagged this Haute Hippie shirt off Shopbop for 70% off.  I like the pleated bib ruffle look of it, but what really sold me was the sheerness factor.  This skirt from Free People is a nice basic to have around when you are searching aimlessly for some bottoms.  It goes with pretty much everything.  I rocked the side ponytail for one more post.  It reminds me of when I dressed up as a punk rocker in the 6th grade.  Expect another post soon =)

After returning from a delicious spaghetti dinner at a local restaurant we decided to snap some photos of my Friday night dinner outfit.  I was pretty stuffed from all those noodles, but I wanted to show you my new shoes.  I swear these are the most comfortable shoes I own due to the padded toe area.  I feel like I am wearing my Nike running shoes.  The color is a nice change from the usual black and I think the big tongue is pretty cute.  The cutout shirt by Victorialand is so soft and the perfect color for spring and summer.  I added my lace banded leggings by LNA to finish off the look.  I like this Chanel necklace because it is so different from the ones you usually see around.  I call it my globe necklace.  We picked up this plant at the grocery store earlier this week for $10 along with another gorgeous fern.  We decided we have enough animals, but we could use some more foliage around the house.

Assael Pearl and Diamond Lariat Necklace - Gift from Boyfriend

My love affair with lace continues in this post!  My boyfriend and I decided to snap some photos in Cherry Creek before we went out for a sushi dinner.  I wore a comfortable stretchy pencil skirt that has really cool chiffon lace up detailing in the back.  I tucked in a lace top, making the outfit look like it was one piece or a dress.  It was pretty warm in the sun, but I took this angora sweater because when the sun goes down in Denver it really cools off.  I guess I forgot how much an angora sweater can shed because I had to bring along my trusty lint roller.  This sweater jacket can be tied up in the front with the silk ribbon making it a wrap, otherwise you can tie a bow in the back for a cute look which is what I ended up doing.  I decided to break out some sandals against my bare legs and I continued my lace up theme.  This necklace I am wearing is adjustable so you can essentially close the diamond circle portion over whichever pearl you want to, changing the length.  

A really fun toy store in Cherry Creek is The Wizard's Chest and we thought the metal wizard was the perfect backdrop.  Down the street in a mall area we found this awesome artistic pole with faces on it.  Later, we came upon a private residence with a beautiful sculpture and quaint benches.  It is amazing how nice it was just yesterday evening when we took these pictures since there is a full scale blizzard going on today.

I looked up what you can do to stop an angora sweater from shedding and there isn't much you can do except put it in a Ziploc bag in the freezer for a few hours.  That is supposed to decrease the amount it sheds.  I still love this sweater.  I just have to be careful to wear it with a white outfit next time.
