Outfit Post: Neon Yellow Jacket

I love a great blazer, dark denim and a perfect pair of shoes. This outfit has all those elements, but with a new twist on those classic pieces. A neon colored jacket, destroyed pair of skinny jeans & purple suede sandals, combine together to create a fabulous and casual yet put together ensemble!

Zara neon yellow jacket (almost exact duplicate here)

Zara blouse (old - identical option)

American Eagle jegging in Dark Destroy

Sole Society "Sable" sandal in Lilac

Kendra Scott "Rae" necklace in White Iridescent

Caravelle NY watch in Gold Tone (gifted)

Belliza Knight vintage-inspired ring (gifted)

I know this jacket is about 3 years old, but you won't believe this almost exact duplicate I discovered that comes in 3 different colors. And the price is spot on.

Don't be afraid to mix your color combos up. The black blouse and dark denim help tie in the bright colors nicely, don't you think? 

I hope that you guys are already having a great week. 4 more days and we've reached the 3 day weekend! I don't know about you, but I am really excited about some vacay downtime. Until then, let's plan on having an amazing Tuesday, okay? xoxo

Copy Cat Closet: Winter Neon

 

When Natalia from Ma Nouvelle Mode contacted me a few weeks ago to host a Copy Cat Closet linkup, I was ecstatic!! If you haven't heard of CCC before, you've got to join in on the fun! So each Thursday a challenge is sent out with something specific to try to copy. Then the following Wednesday you come back to Natalia or Kelley and link up your outfit! (p.s. you don't have to be a blogger to do this! Just link up an instagram photo or a link with a photo of yourself in your look!)

 

It's so awesome to be challenged each week and it really forces me to shop my closet too! When she said I got to pick the challenge I knew immediately what I wanted to do. Yep you guessed it - Neon! So here are two looks I put together specifically for the challenge:

 

 

 

1st Look:

Neon Pink Tee: Gap (old)

Jeans: Express (old)

Leopard Loafers: Target

Scarf: Zara

Watch: Caravelle by Bulova c/o LuckyFABB

 

2nd Look:

Neon Yellow Blazer: Zara (old - similar)

Dress: Express (old)

Knuckle Clutch: Arbonne "Comet Cosmetic"

Booties: Jessica Simpson (old)

 

Obviously you guys know I'm obsessed with neon. So this wasn't too difficult for me. I just paired both my neons with neutrals or basics so that they'd be the stand out piece. I love dressing down this blazer (wore it with cutoffs here) but it's a super fun going out option as well. Pairing it with a LBD was perfect. Also, neon pink & leopard are totally considered neutrals in my wardrobe (I should be embarrassed how many of each I have... but I'm not!) I wore that look during a casual shopping trip at the promenade last week. For more neon winter outfits I've recently worn see this & this

 

So if you want to link up your outfit - please do so below! I seriously can't wait to see what you ladies do! I have some tips for wearing neon too: 

• If you’re a bit nervous about venturing into Neon… start small! An accessory like a bag or a belt is always easy and something anyone can try.
• Pick neon colors that you love. I’m obsessed with pink in general so I tend to always be attracted towards oranges, pinks & yellows. If you don’t love the color you won’t love your outfit!
• Stick to a neutral palette for the rest of your look. Nude shoes, white tees, chambray shirts & boyfriend jeans are always a great companion to neon.
• Don’t be scared! I rocked 2 neons together and got SO many compliments. The #1 rule when wearing neon – be confident and smile! People will love your outfit if they know you love it!

It seems crazy to post this outfit the day before December 1st, but I guess that's what happens when you live in LA & get a heat wave the week before Thanksgiving. Before our Washington trip, Bill and I went for a little Pre-Christmas shopping. My neon blazer came in handy when the sun ventured behind the clouds and the high 70's temps cooled off slightly. Plus these booties were surprisingly SO comfy as we strolled around the promenade for several hours.

 

Do you guys have a hard time buying gifts for guys? I'm the WORST. Bill has a birthday 10 days before Christmas and I never know what to get him. It doesn't help that he never really "wants" anything either... At this point, I'm totally open to suggestions - so please! Send them along.. I need all the help I can get! xoxo

Outfit Post: Everything Black & Yellow

Blazer: Zara (last seen here)

Denim: Express "Zelda" Jean Legging

Shoes: Zara

Tank: Forever 21 (old)

Belt & Sunglasses: H&M

 Jewelmint "Sugar Pop" Earrings c/o Witty Whits Words

Last Sunday morning was so gray & gloomy so I thought I'd try to coax out the sun myself. My black jeans & gray tank got a splash of color from a bold blazer and these delicious dangle earrings (won them in a giveaway!) Sometimes a fun look doesn't have to be a heavily styled one!

I seriously can't get enough of this jacket - so glad I scooped it up. Next time you want to give your outfit some extra "oomph" try a colored blazer. I've found a few great vintage ones at thrift stores and you can't go wrong with any hue you choose. Keep your look minimal and let the pop of color speak for itself. Happy Monday everyone!!

Had a fun {and adventurous} date night on Sunday with Bill! We drove up the coast on the PCH and stopped off near Topanga Canyon to take these photos. I couldn't wait to throw on my latest Zara sale find (seriously.... I have a problem!) I've been spotting it on a co-worker for months and when I saw it marked down I knew I just had to have. It's part 80's, part modern, part amazeballs.

Afterwards we headed to one of our go-to sushi places in the Valley - only to forget they're closed on Sundays! Luckily, our other fav sushi place is in Calabasas, not too far away. Never a dull moment with the 2 of us... Hey, have you entered my Giveaway yet?! You could win this personalized GiGi clutch! Well, what are you waiting for...? Hop to it lovelies! Happy Tuesday! xoxo
