Lusting After: ban.do Black Label

Happy Wednesday loves! Let's beat the mid-week blues by chatting about the latest addition to my wish list... ban.do's black label! You'll remember that ban.do is one of the reasons I started BAD after I blogged for them during the 2009 holiday season.

The thing I adore about ban.do is the fact that they offer budget friendly accessories (like sequined hearts for $15 and fun corsages under $75) as well as specialty one-of-a-kind pieces. Their black label is filled with lots of sparkle, tulle, veils, poms and anything super girly that you can think of.

While past collections have included vintage inspired pieces (last year's was a total homage to Joan from Mad Men) this time they wanted a more rock-n-roll vibe that's totally fresh and playful. Classic ban.do. Perfect occasions for wearing these beauties are celebrations like your wedding reception, birthday party, or just because it's a Tuesday night and you want to look fabulous (my personal excuse)

The pieces I'm seriously lusting after the most are those gorrrrrrrg sparkly combs as well as the "Can't Stop Won't Stop Vol 1" (note: volumes 2 & 3 ain't so bad either!) I'd hurry over and see if any of these pretties need to be added to your wardrobe.. a few have already been sold! It's really true.. Shop ban.do... Feel pretty!

I'm a super bad blogger. Like the worst. I was so excited to be in New York, attend the conferences, meet new people, go to parties etc... that I literally took actual pictures of 1 outfit. ONE! I swear, I must deserve some sort of blogger citation or something...

 

Anyways... Remember my quest for a Topshop peplum? Well I came up a winner with this ribbed black version and knew it would pair perfectly with my fav floral pants! And if you follow me on instagram you know I'm wearing my very special gift from my Fairy Godfathers. I love the ladylike top and pant combo with the playfulness of these red/purple sunglasses. It's all about having fun with your look ladies! Just enjoy your clothes and don't be afraid to experiment or try new things.

 

My lovely friend Amanda snapped these for me before my meeting with GiGi New York on her roof! The view was amazing and I'm so happy she suggested it for our little photo sesh. I also cannot wait to share my GiGi trip with you! I got a full on factory tour and met with some awesome people. Stay tuned for that post coming up along with more snapshots from NYC! xoxo
