Today marks my first post linking up with Monday Mingle, a fashion focused initiative that sprung from the minds of me, Momtrends.com and Glammamom.com. Each week we’ll take turns hosting the linky and we invite you to link up with any fashion related post that you would love to get some exposure!
Before I give you the outfit details on my nautical inspired look, I wanted to give you a sneak peek at a collaboration that I just did with Neiman Marcus. On Wednesday, I’ll share with you the summer to fall transitional looks that I put together. As you can see, my love affair with colorblocking continues…
Ok, on to my Monday Mingle contribution…The outfit that I wore in our Alex and Ani giveaway post today consisted of a Forever21 striped tunic, KUT from the kloth cuffed jeans, an African beaded necklace courtesy of Megan, Alex and Ani bangles and Sporto Duck Boots. It was raining that day and I can slosh through puddles with wild abandon thanks to my trusty old Ducks, so you know I had to bust them out!
Momtrends is our linky host this week, so head on over and link up your fabulous fashion themed posts!
