A Whole New World

Before you read, press play and sing along. 
You won't be disappointed:) 
 Dress: 'Kiss Me Ombre Maxi' - Tobi (currently out of stock) - Join Tobi.com HERE for 50% off your first order
Shoes: DV by Dolce Vita (last year)- IDENTICAL version available at Target HERE












I've shown you my Pocahontas inspired outfit (HERE), so it's only fitting that the moment I put this outfit on I would feel like another one of my favorite Disney princesses, Jasmine. Does this outfit not beg to be worn on a magic carpet ride under the night sky with handsome Aladdin by your side? Yeah, so maybe it's just me, but that's probably because I'm 12 at heart. Whatevs. I totally dig it.

Back in June, I saw this dress on Tobi.com and fell in love. The problem, I was totally broke at the time, but after sleeping on it, I could not get it off my mind. Seriously, how pathetic is that? I know you all totally know exactly what I'm talking about though ;). Anyways, I caved and ended up spending the last bit of my self-allotted monthly allowance on it. That left me totally broke for the rest of the month, but by golly, it was totally worth it.
How gorgeous is this necklace from SHY Boutique?? I fell in love with this bold statement piece and now have a new go to favorite in the necklace department! I knew I had a match made in heaven when I paired this necklace with the maxi. The subtle ombre maxi paired with the bold, colorful statement necklace created a new outfit favorite that I want to wear every single night. I finished the outfit with a pair of neutral wedges and my new favorite chain link bracelets from t&j designs (be prepared to see A LOT of these...I don't think I will ever take them off). It doesn't hurt that I totally feel like a princess in this combo:)

I am excited to introduce you to SHY Boutique, a online boutique specializing in trendy, statement jewelry. I love that they offer AFFORDABLE trendy options inspired by the latest jewelry crazes from big name stores with out the hefty price tag(J.Crew anyone?).

 Get excited, because Shy Boutique is offering Twenties Girl Style reader's a 30% off discount, along with free shipping when you use the code TGS30! Be sure to check out their fantastic selection of jewels!!

Glow


Pants: Bullhead Denim - from PacSun a few years ago
Shoes: Target (last year) - DV by Dolce Vita identical version HERE (and they are on sale!)
Bracelets: Target
Ring: Jewelmint 'Giza Ring
Nails: OPI 'Mod About You'





 Long time, no see! I'm sorry I've been MIA! Between working and trying to spend as much time as possible at the lake, my blogging has been pretty nonexistent lately! My sister (also my photographer:) ) has also been super busy with summer shoots, including weddings and senior portraits, so finding time to take photos that matches up perfectly with both of our schedules has been pretty difficult. Anyways, I'm back!

I love love love Summer. It is by far my favorite season, and I prefer to spend my days reading books, swimming in the lake and sunbathing. Something else I love? Being able to go makeup-less. I love that in the summer time, the sun gives me a natural glow that allows me to put on a little bit of mascara and go (although, I may have gotten a tad too much sun (notice my lobster nose?) last weekend).

After a long day on the lake, I got all dressed up to go out with the boy. I received this blouse from Little Mistress and automatically fell in love. This is truly the perfect piece to take from summer to fall. I love the sheer, flowy fabric and the pretty flower detailing that has hints of gold. It's the perfect lightweight top with a high low hem-line and a peter pan collar that I find absolutely adorable. I paired it with melon colored skinnys and nude wedges for a cooler evening, but can't wait to add a heavy cardi, leggings and boots for fall. I love finding new online stores, and Little Mistress might just be one of my new favorites.

Yeah...I Really Own That: Marsa from The DayLee Journal

It's no surprise that I'm obsessed with Marsa who blogs at The DayLee Journal (you've seen her on my blog here). Not only is she adorable and possibly my best blogging friend (BBF!), but I want to steal her entire wardrobe. She has such an effortless way of putting things together, with a hint of quirky, cool thrown in the mix. Seriously guys, her style is amazing and once you check out her blog you will want to copy just about every outfit, I promise. Also, Marsa and her husband, Jerry, are quite possibly the cutest couple ever ever. She often shares antidotes from their every day life that always have me laughing out loud. Check her blog out here!

With that said, I am so happy to introduce the lovely and ALWAYS adorable Yeah...I Really Own That blogger for July...

Marsa from The DayLee Journal



Sooooo tie-dye shirts. Does anyone even wear them anymore? I don't know about you, but they make me think of summer, hippie, camping, or all three of them combined. They're definitely not the first thing I would pull out when I'm looking for something "trendy." But for some reason, when I found this a few summers ago for a whopping $7 I couldn't resist. And I wanted to find a way to wear it without the typical "beach" or "summer" vibe so this is what I came up with. I know tie-dyes will probably never be the coolest thing to wear, but it's pretty much one of the comfiest shirts I own and I love it. So yeah guys, I really own that.
