ttF Fashion Diary: September Celebrations

ttF Fashion Staple: Rhinestone Necklace
Some people save new purchases for that special occasion. I’m more of an instant gratification type of girl. The minute a dress comes home with me, it’s a safe bet I’ll be wearing it real soon. And it took less that four hours to slip on a new mini I was given at 2B during a blogger afternoon.

I dressed up the mesh and jersey combo with this month’s staple necklace and lengthened my legs with nude platforms. The leggy look felt a little Kim Kardashian/Blake Lively-esque. So I took inspiration from their sleek ponytail red carpet looks and headed to Soho House to celebrate the end of September…and my friend Kinya’s birthday. That’s us below working our inner Charlie’s Angel.

Check back soon for the roundup of this month’s ttF Fashion Staples Series!

ttF Fashion Diary: 2B Style

ttF Fashion Staple: Embellished Navy Blouse
It’s hard to pass down an afternoon of food and fashion. So when 2B invited me to a lunch and styling session with my fellow Two Point Oh! LA bloggers I obviously accepted. 2B is the flirty, feminine sister of Bebe. And it’s über affordable. After a delish meal at The Farm (where this happened) it was off to the 2B store on Beverly. Nude mannequins lined the windows waiting for a blogger styling intervention.

We each created looks reflecting our personal style. Click here to vote for my look if you like it! You can win a $250 2B gift card.

I’ve been very drawn to fall’s spicy tones, so I went with an orange, cognac and tan faux leather and fur mix. And, of course, you have to add a little shine, so I stacked gold bangles (similar to the look I sported that day!) and added an earthy statement necklace. Kind of loving how the mannequin poses the same way I do! Head over to LookbookLA for more photos from the event.

ttF Fashion Diary: Bright Plaid

ttF Fashion Staple: Orange Pencil Skirt and Rhinestone Necklace
There’s nothing to better to combat gray skies then fashion. This morning was extremely overcast, and pretty cold for LA standards. So I brightened my mood with bold color. This plaid shirt is a twist on the classic print with it’s rainbow palette. I usually wear it with jeans but tapped into fall’s colorblocking trend with warm hues. Since I had so much going on with my outfit, I kept accessories neutral: a little bling on my neck and nude shoes and tan bag.

ttF Fashion Diary: Jacket Ease

ttF Fashion Staple: Ladylike Jacket
The beauty of a ladylike jacket is has the magical ability to elevate even the most basic looks. Take this morning, for example. I was running late for a beauty appointment so I just threw on a pair of jeans, flats a tee. The combo would have been fine but by adding a simple jacket it instantly took the polished factor up a notch.
