Closet Confection: Jewel Thief

{BCBGeneration Blouse (doppelganger here), c/o Little Mistress Midi Skirt (matching top here), Judith Leiber Overture Clutch (similar), Forever 21 Ring (similar), Nine West Shoes (similar)}

There’s just something about a tea-length skirt that makes me feel so posh and refined. So when the generous team over at Little Mistress reached out to me, I was irresistibly drawn to this beautiful midi skirt by Girls on Film. It can be a tough length to pull off for some (which I learned the hard way when choosing my bridesmaids’ gowns years ago). But I think the key is to pick a shoe with a low-vamp in the front (bring on the toe cleavage, if you’re game!) to help elongate the leg.

You always take a gamble when you try out an online retailer, but this skirt exceeded my expectations. I’ll probably be going back for the matching top on my own dime to wear for my upcoming birthday dinner. But for today’s ensemble, I went for a mix of rich jewel tones and automatically reached for this citrine-colored top. I acquired it way back in 2011, but I located it’s doppelganger at Forever 21. You can get it here, and it comes in the most gorgeous teal color. In fact, don’t be surprised if you see me wearing it soon!

My birthday’s still 2 weeks away, and my wishlist seems to be growing by the second as I type up this post. So I’ll just quit while I’m ahead.

Thanks for reading!

Closet Confection: Walk on the Wild Side

{Janette Maxi Dress via Strawberry, c/o Pink Basis Lace Up Heels, Vita Fede ‘Futturo’ & ‘Mini Titan’ Bracelets, Hermes Bracelet, Michael Kors Watch, H&M Ear Cuff}

When I spotted this dress for just $25 on my lunch break, I snatched it up quicker than you can say ‘Jack Robinson’. The print pretty much speaks for itself and makes me feel effortlessly glam. These gorgeous faux-python pumps arrived from the lovely folks over at Pink Basis the other day, and I just knew that they were a perfect match for this dress. They’re a dead ringer for this pair from Aquazzura but far easier on the pocket book. You guys should know by now that I’m a shoe addict, so I was ecstatic to partner with a company that allows me to indulge without breaking the bank. In fact, I’ve got my eye on a few additional pairs…

I usually gravitate towards understated jewelry with bold prints like this, but today I threw caution to the wind and piled on heaps of necklaces and bangles, plus a funky little ear cuff for good measure. I can’t even begin to tell you how fabulous this outfit made me feel.

What sort of outfit makes you feel fabulous? I’d love to hear, so sound off in the comments.
And thanks for reading!
