#OOTD: Maxi Dress | Styled 2 Ways

This week Steph and Christina are styling the Pink Stitch Resort Maxi Dress two different ways. Take it away Girls!

Steph:
Coastal Chic

I am in love with this Pink Stitch Resort Maxi Dress in Azure Blue. It’s the perfect flowy maxi for a hot summer day at Rapunzel’s.

During the day at work my “must haves” are  an arm full of Bourbon & Boweties Bracelets (coins & a sea of blue are my favorites) & TKEES on my feet. These days I can’t get enough of TKEES in Coco Butter and Sea Snake. I completed my mermaid look today with a pair of Sea Snake.

After work I can throw on a chunky beaded belt for a sunset cruise on the boat! (Margaritas are a non-negotiable!) I added an Annie Fischer Pineapple Pouch for my cell phone, lip gloss, sunnies & keys and I’m ready to go!

Christina:
A Preppy State of Dress

There is this little old saying that goes; you must always have the perfect little black dress. Well, on Palm Beach the perfect little black dress actually translates into the perfect little summer dress. When I set my eyes on the new Pink Stitch Resort Maxi Dress I just knew I had to have it. I went for an effortless chic look without all the fuss that goes into making an outfit.

Sometimes, it really is better to go with the saying, less is more. I made sure to keep the jewelry to a minimum only accenting it with Bourbon & Boweties Bracelets and a Zacasha tassel necklace. I knew I would be spending the day running errands around Palm Beach, so I made sure to keep the shoes simple. You can often catch me rocking my TKEES or some other fashionable flat around town. So leave all the fuss at home, grab your favorite clutch and aviator sunglasses and you’re good to go!

#DIY | Flower Pot Baby Shower Gift

Calling all moms, sisters, friends and grandmas! This is a fun and easy project you can do to add a spin to your loved one’s baby shower gift.  Follow along as we take you through a simple step by step process in creating the most one of a kind gift that she is sure to love.

Materials needed:

1)      Jammies (We recommend Jammies Pret-A-Porter) sold at Lil Rapunzel’s. These adorable onesies are perfect for adding color for your “flower pot” and we have sizes ranging from 0-3, 3-6, 6-9, and 9-12 months, all great for that growing baby.

2)      Ribbon – have fun with this. Feel free to pick a color related to the gender of the baby. You can also keep it simple with a neutral ribbon to create a more subtle look.

3)      Flowers – the only thing we recommend is that you don’t pick a flower that will over power the flower pot. Make sure you choose a flower that will balance it out. We went ahead and picked the Penta’s flower. But you could also pick from the following options too! Feel free to  keep all the flowers the same or you can mix it up so it looks like a real flower garden!

Let’s get started!
Select your onesie
Lay Flat
Fold in half
Fold in half one more time
Begin to roll the onesie up – start at the bottom and and work your way up
Keep the onesie rolled, tie your ribbon around it
Make sure to finish it off with a pretty bow
Place the flower stem in the opening

TA DA! You just finished your first flower pot!!
Jammies Pret-A-Porter Onesie – $17

#OOTD: Camo Pants | Styled 2 Ways

When you work with a bunch of fashionable girls who like to snap things up at the store the second they arrive, there are a lot of times where we come to work in the same items! This was the case the other day with Christina and Hallie who both recently purchased the Current/Elliott Drawstring Lounge Trousers in the camo print. Because we all clearly have such different style this was the perfect opportunity to show how to wear these pants 2 different ways!

Christina (pictured on the left) paired her pants with a navy tee tucked in. We’ve officially decided that we are loving the Navy/Camo combo she’s got going on here. What a great way to jazz up a very classic color! Christina completed her look with her favorite pair of TKEES in Cocobutter.

Hallie (pictured on the right) combined a few trends into one outfit. She paired her pants with a “trend of the minute” racer back crop top and a pair of strappy metallic sandals. Birkenstocks (another trend of the minute) would be super cute with this look too!

Both girls kept their jewelry simple – just a few Bourbon & Boweties bangles and sunnies of course!!

A couple of other tips:

• Keep the top simple when you are wearing a print pant. Solids work best but if you are a risk taker/trend setter an easy print would work here too!
• Make sure to balance out your look – if the pant is slouchy you want something a little sleeker on top.
• Choose the correct shoes! Flip flops and flat sandals always work well and cute strappy wedges will dress up the look for evening.

Party Gypsy Style

We were so lucky to have such a great turn out for our Rae Francis and Jewelry by Allegra Trunk show on Wednesday, December 18th. Thank you to everyone who participated and attended! We raised a lot of money to donate to the Pat Reeves Village Shelter – we couldn’t be more proud to be helping such a worthy organization! The food and wine was donated by Gigi’s Tap and Table located here in Palm Beach and DJ Adam Lipson lent a hand and some tunes! Heather Lowenthal of Posh Parties styled the event! Here’s a little picture recap of the evening!!
