What I'm Wearing

Dress: BCBGeneration dress (old) - very similar style for less than $50 and similar style here with sleeves 

Cardigan: J Crew

Jacket: (my sister's) Zara - in love with this leopard bow coat. 

Shoes: YSL Tributes

Sunglasses: Lanvin

All jewelry: t+j Designs

I just love the photos that Kirsten shot of us while I was in Chicago and we shared some over on our new blog but wanted to share the details of my look as well.  I last wore this dress when I was 7 months pregnant at my baby shower and love that I can still wear it now.  I've always been a fan of drop waist dresses (my wedding dress was a drop waist!).  It helps create the look of a longer torso which is much needed for someone with a very short torso like me.  It's funny my sister is only a few inches taller than me but she has a long torso and very long legs so she seems so much taller than me.  Darn me for getting the short genes in the family ;) 

Lookbook: Crop top

What I'm Wearing
Blazer: Zara (from a few years ago)
Top: Target - also comes in an overall floral print
Skirt: Target (it's only $8 now!) - the floral version is also super cute and on sale.
Shoes: Louboutin
Necklace: t+j Designs
Bag: YSL (mine is the old version before they became Saint Laurent so it looks slightly different to the one that's out now.) 

I love crop tops on others but didn't think that I could pull off the look.  I decided to try one out when I spotted this cute one at Target.  I'm glad I did as I discovered that my short waist actually helps out in this department!  I never intended to show off my mid-section anyway and since the top actually covers most of my waist, all I needed to do was to pull up my skirt a bit higher and it pulled together a cute outfit!  Sometimes I think I'll never try out a trend but I'm glad that I tried this on as I think it really works and will be pairing it with shorts and other skirts!  You may have seen my photo on instagram of a few that I tried on while I was out shopping.

Lookbook: Style Steal

I've been finding so much cute stuff at Target lately and even though most of the time I go in there needing to buy something for my daughter, I end up with a bunch of clothes in my cart.  Recently I went in just as the Peter Pilotto for Target line came out and I loved the prints so picked out a few things to try on.  This top was a must buy for me as soon as I tried it on.  The quality is nice and soft and the fit is a bit relaxed but I like that it's not too form fitting.  It's a great top to dress up or down.  I have been looking for a fit and flare skirt for awhile and on the same shopping trip I came across this adorable skirt.  It fits great and looks a lot more expensive than it was ($23!).

Mossimo Ponte Fit & Flare Skirt

(sizing - I'm wearing XS in both pieces)

I'm all about dressing with high and low brands and I think Target is a great place to find these kinds of "steals".  I often pair my style steals with my higher end accessories and love that I don't have to spend a lot to make my outfits.

BEAUTY CRUSH: TWO-TONE LIPS + CAT-EYELINER

Been seeing a lot of two-tone lip looks lately, but this has to be my favorite. It's fun and flirty, especially with the cat-eyeliner.

Get the look with NARS Pure Matte Lipstick in Carthage and Yves Saint Laurent Glossy Stain.
