Hello from Colorado! I'm sorry for disappearing off of here for a few days. Last week was just insane for me at work and with travel prep, and now we're on a ski trip in Colorado this week! We're staying in a huge house with 18 other people, and it's a bit crazy, but also so fun. Today (it's late Monday night as I write this) was our first day of skiing and it was actually so warm and beautiful out...pretty crazy. Of course it's ridiculously stunning here in Colorado and I am just loving every minute of it, sore legs and all! You can see more of the gorgeous area we're in (and some amazing views) on my Snapchat - jacylenore!

As for this outfit, I love this color palette for spring! Even if it's chilly and you still need to layer a bit...if you simply style ulta-feminine shades like blush, white and nude together it will make for the perfect transitional look for spring.

I hope you're having a great week! Bear with me on sporadic posts while on vacation this week (unfortunately my plans to get ahead on posts weren't humanly possible)! I have lots of exciting spring posts coming your way asap :)

Blush + Black 3.17.2015

 Top: sold out Forever 21 (want this blush tunic blouse!) | Pants: H&M | Bag: H&M (similar here, here) | Shoes: H&M (go down 1 whole size) | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Necklace: BaubleBar (non-pearl version here) - both 30% off today! | Watch: Fossil | Bracelet: Margaret Elizabeth 

I'm always on the hunt for ways to make my work attire interesting and fashion-forward while still being modest and professional. So, I love when I find tops with some kind of interesting detail, or with a longer length! Then, I just add interest and texture with accessories - in this case my heels and statement necklace.

I've always loved blush pink, but I'm just extra obsessed with it lately! It's so airy and feminine, but I love how well it pairs with black and white, so it can be a bit edgy too when you want it to be. I picked up some blush pink tulips at the grocery store over the weekend and it's amazing how much they've lightened up our living area!

PS - Both my statement necklace and the non-pearl version are 30% off right now!

xo,

Jacy

Blush 11.11.2014

Top: Forever 21 (wearing a small | just sold out but you can request to be emailed when it gets back in stock) | Jeans: H&M (denim blue) | Heels: Prabal Gurung for Target (similar here, here) | Bag: Tobi (old, similar low, middle, high) | Necklace: J.Crew Factory | Watch: Fossil | Bracelet: Margaret Elizabeth

This top was one of those random Forever 21 finds that I'm going to love for a long time. It's so chic and polished, a gorgeous length and color, and perfect for work (with black skinnies) or a date night (like styled here). Sadly it sold out in the last week, but they should get it back in soon, so make sure to sign up for an email when they do (what I did after the first time it sold out).

Also, Happy Veterans Day to our wonderful veterans and current service men and women, who have given so much to protect our freedom. We greatly appreciate you and all you've sacrificed.

xo,

Jacy

March Remix: Little Black T-Shirt {1} 3.07.2014

 T-shirt: Target (I went up a size to get a longer, relaxed fit) | Blazer: Forever 21 (old, similar here and here)

Jeans: Forever 21 (similar here and here) | Heels: Steve Madden (similar here and here)

Bag: The Limited | Watch: Fossil

Necklace: J. Crew Factory (J. Crew version here)

Hello and Happy Friday!

I'm kicking off a new remix series today and I'm really excited about this one. I'm going back to basics this month and will be styling my little black t-shirt 3 different ways. We all know the basic ways to wear a t-shirt (with shorts, boyfriend jeans, under a sweater, etc.), but I'm going to take mine to the next level and dress it up!

For today's look I went for a bit of simple sophistication and a put-together look! To me, this outfit brings day-to-night to mind because it can totally work for a casual office and dinner out. I bought this blazer at Forever 21 3 or 4 years ago, but it's continued to be a great staple piece! Blush pink is so "in" this spring, and there really are so many different ways to wear a cropped blazer. I'm also debuting my new purse for this spring and summer (and maybe longer)! I scored it on major sale from The Limited and I'm absolutely obsessed. The quality is great, and I love the classic, chic shape and versatile color.

Cheers to the weekend!

xo,

Jacy

Necklace: Forever 21 (similar here and here) | Watch: Fossil | Bow cuff: F21 (sold out)

Good morning! How was your weekend?

Mine wasn't the best ever with the snow and ice storm we got, with our wifi being out, and a couple of rough nights sleep-wise. But there were some good things too... I got to spend time with the fiance, my parents, and my best friend, and really enjoyed the Oscars last night!

This is a little work look I put together for my blog swap with Vanessa of Style X Vee last week, but I wanted to post this outfit on here as well! I'm loving blush pink this spring because it has such an elegant and feminine feel. This particular top from H&M isn't online, but I liked to 3 similar options above if you're looking for something like it!

And now for some fun news... I was featured on Lauren Conrad's site Friday as their Chic of the Week! I read this site multiple times a week, and have always loved LC and her impeccable taste, so this was such an honor!

xo,

Jacy

PS ~ I'll be sharing my Oscars best-dressed and favorite beauty looks a little later today, so make sure you're following me on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook to see my picks! :)

Blog Swap | Work Chic 2.24.2014

Happy Monday everyone!

Today I'm so excited to be doing a blog swap with my sweet and absolutely stunning blogging friend Vanessa of Style X Vee! Vanessa just started blogging in December, but has such chic, distinctive style and is a makeup goddess. Her blog features looks for both work and play, and lots of extremely helpful makeup and beauty tips. Somehow, she does all of this in the midst of relocating to a new city and home with her husband. We've wanted to do a blog swap for awhile, and thought a chic work look would be both fun and fitting since we're both hard working gals. Thanks so much for reading, and please check out Vanessa's fabulous blog!

Hello! I'm Vanessa from stylexvee and I am so happy to be doing a blog swap with the lovely Jacy! You love her and so do I, it is that serious. Can we just talk about how gorgeous her eyes are? Today I wanted to share with you my version of a work outfit I would wear regularly. My work is business causal and while I could totally get away with wearing something a bit more laid back, I have a thing for dressing up. My makeup for work is also something I like to play around with and lately I have been absolutely obsessed with Stila Liquid Lipstick in Beso. This baby dries to a matte finish, extremely creamy and stays put while I have business meetings and lunches.

This polka dot peplum top was something I found randomly one day at H&M (sadly no longer available, but I've got dupes below) and you just cannot go wrong with a black pencil skirt. I typically wear these nude brown pumps from Pour La Victoire when I know I want to look polished and nude pumps make your legs look like they go on for days! Yes, they are pretty tall, but the platform heel and the cushion insert makes you feel as if you are walking on air. A total must for me!

I hope that this outfit gives you all a bit of inspiration and brightens up your Monday morning. If you are looking for some more inspiration, I hope you'll follow me on my blog and Instagram where I post fashion and LOTS of beauty tips and tricks.

Thanks so much for reading and have a lovely week.

xo,

Vanessa
