Outfit Swap: The Short and the Sweet of It

May 3rd, 2012

Kirby from The Short and the Sweet of It here! I’m so happy to be guest posting on Molliee’s blog today to share some recent outfit inspiration.

When I first spotted this picture it just screamed “spring” to me, between the polka dot mint skirt, the lace top and the neutral bag and belt. And I love the addition of glittery heels, of course. When re-creating the outfit I paired a pleated mint skirt with an eyelet top, and the Kate Spade multicolor glitter heels were just too good to pass up!

Head on over to The Short and the Sweet of It to see my outfit inspiration!

Fashionable Friday with Neris

October 28th, 2011

shorts: L.e.i., top: F21, jacket: Top Shop, wedges: Anne Christine, beanie and scarf: H&M, bag and belt: Guess

Hello lovelies, I’m Neris from Fashion Fractions! For those of you who don’t know me, I’m a fashion blogger from Croatia. I’m pretty new at the blogosphere and so far I love every minute of it! I decided to start my blog as a creative outlet and along the way I met some amazing and stylish ladies. Molliee and I hit it off from the very beginning so we decided to guest post on each others’ blogs and show you different ways to wear knits. Fall is all about layering and staying cozy and chic at the same time. Wearing colorful scarves and beanies is the perfect way to spice up the simple outfit and to stay warm and look stylish. For this post I decided to play with my clothes and wear my summer denim shorts with tights and leather jacket. I added my favorite scarf and a beanie and I was ready to go :)   If you are curious about how Molliee incorporated knits into her outfit, go over to my blog and check it out :)

I hope you enjoyed this post and feel free to visit me over at Fashion Fractions, tweet with me, be friends, or follow me on Bloglovin.

Thanks for having me Molliee!

Guest Blogger: Glitter & Pearls

August 5th, 2011

I am so happy that Lexi from Glitter & Pearls is guest posting for me today! I have always been a huge fan of her adorable blog so please enjoy her post Rocking Pearls below!

I started college a week early, just to attend sorority rush. My mom and I shopped for months for adorable outfits and the perfect white dress (the white dress is vital to rush.) Day one of rush, you could have knocked me over with one fingertip once I learned what a typical sorority girl looked like. I’m small, brunette, and I talk too much. These girls were tanned, blonde, decked in Lily Pullitzer, and all wore pearls. Nobody in Miami wears pearls. Nobody. Liz Taylor wore pearls. My great Aunt wears pearls. Oprah: pearls. Betty Crocker, I assumed, wore pearls. But here were these girls, all in strands of pearls.

Years later, I must admit, the single short length pearl necklace is a bit too Miss America for me, but I have learned to love love the piled on pearls look. I channel Madonna, rather than Grace Kelly. But both women are gorgeous and glamorous. The longer the strand, the better in my book. If I’m going to wear pearls, I’m going to drip in pearls. I’m also a fan of pearls in unexpected places – wrists, waists, hair.

And don’t break the bank on this one – a few cheap strands of pearls draped over a slinky black dress = a classic.
