Color Theory with Meredith Wendell

Color Theory with Meredith Wendell




This is a set I did about two months ago, inspired by bags and fashions by Meredith Wendell! <3

Fashion Journal Entry #12: Spring Fling

Fashion Journal Entry #12: Spring Fling



Hello, my darling fashionistas! I haven't posted in a while...trying to remedy that now that I have a proper work-space in my apartment! I have a lot of catching up to do! But it's not like I have any followers on this page so I've no one whose missed me...except for my page itself! :p

Anywho, I have kind of switched up how I do my outfit sets on Polyvore. I used to put all kinds of text describing what I wore and what you have to do to emulate the look. Now I'm kind of into the whole collage thing! Isn't it pretty! :)

Here is a larger shot of what I am wearing, though:


Let me start with this lovely tulle skirt that I bought for only $3.00 at one of my favorite thrift stores here in Fayetteville. I love going here because it's like the shop owner gets her prices from Jesus Himself. As I held the skirt up and asked her how much it was, she was like, "Oh praise Jesus...bless You Jesus...glory to Your Name Father...three dollars!"

Amen!!

I paired it with a simple white print tank, black blazer and bowler cap. I wish I could show you the black lace up booties I wore as well...got them from Zara...my faves! I will take a pic of them and upload later.

As for accessories, I was pretty basic: pearl necklace, dangly earrings...cute! :)


That's all for now! I have another set to create from a look I sported while out shopping last weekend! Coming soon!

Smooches,

Kristen

Bag Trend: Meredith Wendell

Bag Trend: Meredith Wendell


Set inspired by bags from Meredith Wendell's Resort 2013 line. Created for a Polyvore contest where we had to showcase what we view as a bag trend for Winter 2013.

I am actually not a big fan of bags. I used to buy purses all the time when I lived overseas; most of them have either been given away or are packed away somewhere. I don't remember the last time I bought a purse, to be honest; but I do like the bright colors of the Meredith Wendell collection.

I also liked the styling featured on the models and it was only a sweet coincidence that the catalog shots for two of the three bags I chose for the set happened to have models dressed in the same look: sweatshirt, ripped jeans, ankle-strap heels. I'd say it's a perfect combination as we transition to Spring...which, let the weather these days tell it, will be happening sooner than later.

Be sure to swing by the website, linked above, and check out Meredith and Wendell's bags, belts and jewelry. Way too pricey for my budget but a little internet window shopping never hurt anyone!

Til next time, ya'll be good, nah, ya' hear? 

Love,

K
