Lady In Red








Dress: c/o - Banana Republic | Shoes: c/o - Banana Republic (Jackie Heel)


Dressing up my bump on this beautiful Friday with Banana Republic!  
First, lets talk about these sandals!  When I saw them, I wanted to wear them to bed.  Lol!  The color, the ruffles, the heel...it was all perfection and I was so glad that they were in my closet.  

Don't put those summer sandals away just yet.  You can always wear them with jeans and your fall sweaters.

And if you want to give your summer dresses a fall vibe, like this gorgeous Ponte Dress with Flounce Skirt simply add a cute denim jacket, and some booties.

Prints And A Bump!









Bright prints and bumps on this Monday!  


Styling this growing bump has not been easy in this summer heat.  Luckily I can wear easy dresses like this shift dress that I got while I was down the shore.  The print and tassel details are super cute whether your an expecting mommy or not.  I wore it with heels for dinner, but you can easily wear flats for a day look.

CROPPED










Hey loves!  Hope you had a great July 4th weekend.


Cropped pants can be a tricky trend to pull of, especially if their wide leg.  I think the easiest way to make them work is balance.  Don't go to wide on the top, keep it sleek or you might end up looking sloppy.  Another tip is wear heels, I'm a flats girl but you need an elevated look.  If you don't want to do a high heel, opt for a stacked one like I did here.  


Keeping the print neutral like I did with these Banana Republic ones is always an easy way to embrace the trend.  I can always rely on Banana to keep me on trend without trying to hard. 


These pants can go from work to cocktail, my best advice is to just have fun with them.

Banana Republic Photo Shoot



Feels so good to be back!  Missed you dolls!   So many things are happening....... life is crazy like that.  The past month has been bananas!  No pun!  

I have tons to share with you and a huge announcement will be up soon but for now, I'll start by giving you a behind the scenes look of a photo shoot I did with Banana Republic.  

I worked on a style post with BR and they decided to choose some of their favorite bloggers to work with them on a photo shoot and I was one of the lucky ones.

  It was honestly one of the best days that I've had since starting my blog.   It was such an honor to work with a company that I've admired as well as shopped at for years.   


I didn't know how to act when I saw myself on this board......SOOO COOL!!!!!  

  

My makeup was super natural.  I don't wear heavy makeup usually, but I was surprised how simple it was for a photo shoot.  Not even fake lashes!!!  


After getting all glammed up it was time to put my first outfit on, I had a total of 4 looks.  I also had no idea that the shoot would be outside.  I have never modeled before so I assumed we would be in a studio just snapping pictures, but it was not like that at all!!!  

We were all over the streets of NYC trying to get that perfect shot.  I even found myself getting my makeup done and hiding from the rain in a supermarket.  It was a horrible, cold and rainy day but I was so excited it didn't even phase me.  I was in my total Gigi Hadid moment all day long.  I was ready to quit my 9-5, take head shots and become a model.  Don't laugh....LOL!!!  

Shoe & accessory heaven!







My favorite outfit from the shoot.  The blazer was made of this basket weave material that felt amazing.  It's definitely a piece you can wear through all the seasons.

Pretending I wasn't freezing....




The weather was horrible and I actually felt sick that day but it was a day that I'll never forget.  

Here are some of the professional pics.






Hope you enjoy the pics!  

Thank you Banana Republic for making my modeling dreams come true!
