Guest Bloggette: SEQUINS & STILETTOS

Just a reminder to everyone that I am on vacation this week - so if you don't hear back from me that's why!  Hope you enjoy all the guest bloggers this week! Please meet Skylette - isn't she just GORGEOUS???

Hey Everyone! I'm Skylette from Sequins & Stilettos - I've been following Sarah's blog for a while now and I'm a huge fan of her thrifting abilities and jealous we don't have better thrifting in my area.  Just a snippet about me - I'm a working mama with three little boys with a crazy schedule.  Being surrounded by all boys can be a little much at times, so blogging my so-called "fashion diaries" has been my girlie outlet.

For today's post, I've chosen to style one piece three different ways, and now that I think about it, most of my guest posts center around this concept, so I'm thinking I need to be better about running the same feature on my own blog.  Haha, moving on - I've had a lot of black and white in my closet over the past few years, and I LOVE polka dots so I chose a black/white/polka dotted skirt to feature this time.

First up is a look pairing it with a chambray shirt (you see chambray everywhere right now) for an easy yet put together look.  I dress mine up with some statement jewelry to wear to the office:

asos pencil skirt / urban outfitters heels

Next up is a favorite trend of mine, polka dots on polka dots.  The key to this look is making sure you're not wearing the same size and/or coloring in your top and bottom.  Try a smaller printed dot on top in the same colorway, or black on white versus white on black... make sense?

                                                       

Outfit Details:  charlotte russe blouse / j crew bracelet

asos pencil skirt / white house black market belt and shoes

Finally, the easiest I suppose (but definitely fun), is to pair a black and white bottom with a bold colored top to make a "wow" statement:

Outfit Details:  j crew tippi sweater in vibrant flame / asos pencil skirt

white house black market heels (old)

There you have it - and there are plenty other ways to "re-mix" this skirt.  I would love to hear your feedback!  Thanks Sarah for letting my stop by!
