Trend Report- Are Turtlenecks Back!?

Readers, I have missed you! I am so sorry I have been so sporadic on blogging, I went off and got married and was basking in the joy of the wedding and the honeymoon for several weeks. I am now back to real life (re-entry to the real world has been so hard) and my mind is now in a creative space again for blogging which is great because we have got to get back to the trends!

I am OBSESSING over turtlenecks. Some of my friends I have polled absolutely HATE the idea of turtlenecks being back in. Some are all for it. Honestly, the response has been super mixed. I am in the camp of being all for them which actually was surprising to me. Growing up I was forced to wear turtlenecks and swore I would never wear them again willingly. However, they have come back chicer than ever! They even have something new called a mock turtleneck which has a shorter neck which is great and doesn't choke you as much!

Let me take you back to the 1980's to see what the old style of turtlenecks used to be. Case in point below. The vibe was high up your neck so you look like you have the longest neck some would even say giraffe like. Big, baggy arm holes completed this look... I mean, at the very least she is comfortable.



Now, lets flash forward a few decades to now. Here is whats trending and where you can pick up the look up for yourself:

Lastly, one of my own spins on the turtleneck trend:

Booties: Steve Madden. Sold out. Similar here
Sunglasses: Ray Ban. Similar here

Sound off below! What are your thoughts on the new and improved turtlenecks? Are you going to update your fall/winter wardrobe with a few?

Until next time readers!

Wedding Wednesday- Best Dresses to Wear to a Summer Wedding

Wedding season is upon us and if your like me, you have just started going to all the weddings of the season! My inspiration for this post came from  Elle Magazine . They did an amazing article on the best looks to wear to a wedding and it got me thinking about wanting to give my readers some tips and highlight a few looks for these special days. Weddings are a lot of fun to go to and you always want to look your best for when you are seeing your friends and family! Here are a few rules to get you started: 1) No cream or white-- Please do not be that one person all the others are giving dirty looks to because you wore an all white look to a wedding. I think having cream or white come through in your look in some way is totally great, especially in these summer months. However, just don't have your entire dress be white. I have seen this done before and its not well received. 2) Pay attention to what the invitation says the attire will be-- If the invitation says blac...

I absolutely love this look and wi...

corBridal Special Series: The Wedding

Readers, Let me start by painting you a little picture. That moment you dream of as a little girl. That moment when you know you meet the right person your heart wants to love forever. That moment you dream of throughout an entire year of planning. The moment you walk down that aisle and marry the person of your dreams. Well, this all happened,  corBridal finally happened! My fantasy turned reality and it truly was the most magical, fun, day of my entire life to date. This time last month, we were basking in the glory of wedded bliss, living in those precious moments and preparing for a magical honeymoon to Hawaii! It was truly such a beautiful time in our lives! Now, there were a few pieces of advice that every married person before me mentioned and they were totally right. One, that it was the happiest day of their entire life and two, the day will be a complete blur and go so fast. I have bits and pieces of moments and photos to pinch myself that it actually was real. I some...
