Romphim: Amazon // Shoes: Kohl's

I know the men's romper has received a lot of internet backlash, but I actually am a big fan!

I think if you have the confidence to rock one, you should! I love them and think when they're styled right, they can look great.

My brother asked if I'd take pictures of him in his new romper, and I decided to share some on my blog.

What do you guys think of the new trend?

This is Mike.

I wanted to spotlight Mike on my blog for many reasons. I've worked with him for just over a year now and his fashion and style has always caught my eye.. He's very eccentric and I love it. His style reminds me of Pirate meets Classy.

Personally, when I think of fashion, fashion worth taking note of.. I think of pushing the boundaries. I think of creativity, uniqueness. I think of inspiring. And Mike is exactly that.

Watch: c/o JORD Wood Watches // Hat: Forever 21 // Dress: TJ Maxx

I asked my best friend to model this beautiful watch because of all of her Alex & Ani bracelets. They work so well with the watch! I thought they accented it perfectly..

I have received countless of compliments because of this watch. I mean it! From grocery shopping to buying new furniture at IKEA. (Which I do a lot of) It's definitely a conversation piece. It's crafted so beautifully! I've also never had an automatic watch, and I'm in love with it.

Be sure and check out JORD Watches! This watch is another favorite of mine.

broken camera.

Hey guys! I'm so sorry I haven't had a post these past two weeks! Naturally, right around Christmas, my camera breaks. It doesn't read memory cards anymore! And the estimated price for fixing it isn't cheap. Boo. So here are some photos I took on Thanksgiving of my stylish uncle and his cousin.. Babes, right?

Hey guys! I'm going to introduce you to the beautiful Miche from Buttons & Birdcages. She's a stylish girl who does some amazing thrifted refashions. I wish I could be as talented as her!

1. What inspired you to start your blog?

Honestly, other bloggers. I used to just look at style blogs, like, all the time. I would takes bits and pieces from various bloggers style and try to come up with my own. I always thought it would be awesome to have one of my own and eventually I decided that I had no excuse not to start one.

2. How would you describe your style?

I guess I would describe it as vintage inspired and eclectic (at least thats what I'd like to think it is)

3. Where do you go for style inspiration?

Straight to my BlogLovin' feed. I skip the stores, celebrities, and magazines. I like to see what real women are wearing and how they style it.

4. What is your #1 place to shop? (Clothes, makeup, shoes, etc..)

Thrift Stores for clothes for sure, a lot of people are freaked out by thrift stores, but what I love about them is they give you an opportunity to find totally unique items that you know the person standing behind you in line at the movies won't be wearing. If I am gonna go for new stuff though I must admit Target is my go to - clothes, shoes, makeup - they have the works, and they rarely disappoint.

5. What are a few of your favorite blogs?

I have SO many! I must admit, I do love some of the big ones - The Clothes Horse and Delightfully Tacky, they were the originals I started reading. Now I've also began to love a few smaller ones as well, like Spoolish and Someone Like You

6. Any advice for fellow bloggers?

Don't feel like you have to conform to what the trends are, or what popular bloggers are wearing. Remember, your blog is just that, your blog. It's your little place on the internet to just be you - plus, you don't want to look back on it one day and feel like it wasn't a true representation of you at that time in your life.

Now be sure to go and say hello to Miche!

lovely sponsor - art of the heart.

I want to introduce you guys to the beautiful Amy from Art of the Heart. She's a hairstylist and makeup artist living in Mississippi. And here's a little more about her and her blog!

1. What inspired you to start your blog?

All my life, I've been obsessed with art in every form and medium.. from fashion and music, to photography and painting.  I started ART of the HEART as a platform to share this love I have for all things "art" through my style, diy projects, hair/makeup tutorials, and more!

2. How would you describe your style?

I'm a girl who has a rebel attitude with soft heart.. if that's even possible! I would describe my style as unpredictable. It's ever-changing on a daily basis.. One day I may wear a girly, vintage-inspired, lacey dress with pretty heels... and the next, you might find me in combat boots, black jeans, and a ripped up t-shirt. I'm fickle like that or a free spirit, if you will! I don't like being confined to just one style.

3. Where do you go for style inspiration?

I get most of my style inspiration from fellow bloggers or alternative models around the world. I've never been one to mimic drugstore fashion magazines. I love colors, patterns, and pieces that stand out. And I like wearing pieces that aren't "in style" in my area. I feel like people in the south tend to lean towards a more conservative style.. I'm not talking about modesty.. it just seems like they have this certain "style box" that they're afraid to step out of. I think it's way more fun to be unique!

4. What is your #1 place to shop? (Clothes, makeup, shoes, etc..)

Picking just 1 favorite place to shop is extremely difficult! I guess I'd have to say my go-to places for shopping are online at ModCloth, Nasty Gal, and TopShop.

5. What are a few of your favorite blogs?

One of my favorite blogs is obviously A Beautiful Mess (They're like the queens of the blogoshpere, right?!), I also frequent KeikoLynn.com, SkunkBoyBlog.com, TheBeautyDepartment.com, and Maskcara.com. The Beauty Department and Maskcara's blogs have awesome hair and makeup tips and tricks. Keiko Lynn is one of my favorite style icons, and ABM and Skunkboy Blog have super cute styles and the BEST diy projects!

6. Any advice for fellow bloggers?

My advice is.. There is nothing wrong with looking to other bloggers for inspiration, but be original. Expand on ideas, don't just copy them. Help promote other bloggers with similar interests as yours and always be friendly! Blogging folks make great friends!

Now be sure to go and say hello to Amy!

meet lola.

Meet Lola, my very first guest on my blog! Isn't she wonderful? I have always been so in love with her style. She has such a great eye for fashion. Doing this shoot & interview with her was so much fun! And I could just go on and on about how gorgeous she is. But I'll let you guys know a little more about her!

How would you describe your personal style?
I go with the trends, but I like to mix it up with pieces of my personal style, things that are different and out of the ordinary!

Where do you go for fashion inspiration?
Teen Vogue, The Satorialist, & J. Crew Magazines

What are your closet essentials?
My sparkly belt, and in the summer, sunglasses! Even inside! People think I’m crazy.

Who are your top fashion icons?
Ellle Fanning, Stella McCartney, & Coco Chanel

If you could give one piece of style advice, what would it be?
Just don’t be afraid! Be yourself! Everyone will love you for YOU. Wear something you like,
and don’t be scared if someone won’t like it! All that matters is if you like it.
