How To Wear 1 Vest 3 Ways

Sarah Phillips — Thu, 07 May 2015 09:07:01 +0000

Long vests have been around for some time now, but they have finally become a staple piece on both the streets and the runways. After seeing them practically everywhere, I decided I should give it a go myself. I had been eyeing this long vest from Top Shop for a while but was struggling with how I would style it into my everyday wardrobe. After some contemplation, I finally realized that I had to take the blush-beauty home with me and ever since I have had some serious fun with it. I have found that there are endless ways to layer a long structured vest with what you are already wearing. And let’s face it, since mother nature has decided to skip spring altogether and head straight into summer, the last thing we will be wanting to wear is something that has sleeves. There are boundless possibilities when it comes to putting an outfit together with a long vest like this one and I am still finding new ways to wear it today. When it’s warm outside, wear it with a sleeveless top; when it gets cooler, wear it with a long sleeve shirt underneath; when it gets downright freezing, wear it […]

Last Minute Mother’s Day Gifts

Mother’s Day week is upon us, which means now is the time to find a present that says “thank you for putting up with us over the last 20+ years”. This is not an easy feat, we can assure you that. Our moms have been there through it all; they have seen us at our best and at our absolute worst. They put up with us when we thought back-talking was cool and even when we almost burned down the kitchen (true story). These ladies deserve more than a present for putting up with us, they deserve a freaking Nobel Prize. Our moms have been genetically programmed to love every little gift that we give them, regardless of what it is but that shouldn’t stop us from spoiling her from time to time! Considering all that our mothers have done for us over the years, helping them indulge a little is the least we can do… Send Urban Stems– starting at $35: If your mom lives in the DC or NYC area and you are a little behind with your gift planning this year, don’t fret. You can send gorgeous flowers to her the same day, within the hour even! Butter London Nail Polish $15: […]
