Wantable Style Edit: June Edition
My second Wantable Style Edit came in, so here’s a look inside at their June box (you can view the first one here). I have to admit I liked the color palette much more this time around and I wish I could have kept the jumper but I think my thighs had a different opinion on the matter. (Alas, the pear-shaped struggle is real.) I ended up keeping the black BB Dakota top but instantly regretted it, so I’ll be selling it on consignment since I already wore it out. Still, I think they took my notes from the first time into consideration (no more junior sized dresses!) and sent a few things that were a little more my taste (except for that really unfortunate soccer mom dress). Based on this box, I made some notes and edits for the next and look forward to seeing what they choose. For now, pics (and Pomeranian cameos) ahead.
Review: Wantable Style Edit
I never thought I’d be one for a monthly styling subscription (being a “pear shape” isn’t easy!). But because I find myself shopping online these days pretty much 95% of the time (and often returning a good portion of what I’ve purchased), I decided to give the new Wantable Style Edit a try. I’d used them (and reviewed them) before, so when they released their first styling service for apparel recently (their intimates box has been one of my favorites for a few months now), I figured I’d give it a shot. Read ahead for all the details & pics.
MBFW Swim 2015
It was a sizzling week for swimwear in Miami. Here’s a look at what’s next in warm-weather attire with a recap of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Swim 2015.
Favorite Finds: Wantable Boxes
Today’s Favorite Find combines my love of discovering new brands with the luxury of having a personal shopper curate the perfect set of pieces based on my preferences. Wantable is a monthly box subscription unlike many others in the way it allows its subscribers to tell them what they like and dislike. A simple picture quiz allows you to rate what you prefer in your accessories, intimates, or makeup box. I opted for the intimates box, where I selected the styles I wear most or would like to wear and gave them honest size information (all secured and private, of course). What came in was a perfect little box of treats and basics I know I’ll be using often.
Meet: Gabriella Wimmer
I like Gabriella Wimmer almost immediately upon meeting her. And not just because she’s offered me a glass of champagne to kick off our time together (though that certainly doesn’t hurt). Gabriella is friendly, approachable, and chic – qualities that should be paired together more often. But, most importantly, Gabriella is a woman who radiates confidence and self-assuredness, qualities of a woman who has fulfilled her purpose. And there’s nothing more stylish than that.
Miami Fashion Blogger Event
If you’re in the Miami area this weekend, I hope you’ll join me this Saturday, March 8th at The Recycled Closet (an urban, upscale consignment store) to shop, sip champagne, and raise some money for the Chapman Partnership to benefit the empowerment and rehabilitation of the homeless.
Candace, the lovely blogger behind From C to C, has planned this fantastic event including some of Miami’s fashion bloggers to help style you while you do some good for the community.
The first 50 ladies to attend will receive a goody bag courtesy of Gables Beauty Supply (one of my personal favorites).
To receive 10% off your purchase, post a photo of the event on your Instagram, and tag The Recylced Closet (@therecycledcloset) and the participating bloggers (@fromctoc, @kqnstyle, @bubblesandink {me!}, @downtostars, @fiercelythriftin, @beautyandbrowgirl, @nanysklozet).
I’m really looking forward to this event and working with all these incredibly stylish women. Hoping to see you all there to support a great cause!
“L” is for Ladylike
Happy New Year, friends (Is it too late to say that?). In a very rare occurrence, Tony and I had a babysitter for the day and were able to enjoy a child-free brunch date at Segafredo (thanks to a great Groupon deal). Not that we don’t enjoy taking the little one out, but we certainly like to keep the date nights (or days, rather) alive whenever possible. We’ve realized being parents has given us a whole new appreciation for daytime drinking that we certainly took for granted pre-kid. Also, while the rest of the country is covered in snow, I have to admit I’m grateful for spring weather in Miami. Hope the locals are enjoying the sunshine while everyone else is keeping warm. Wishing everyone a great weekend!
