SHOP HERE: Olive Yew Bar Necklace

Were at it again with our favorite jewelry shop Olive Yew. Who doesn't love to have a special engraved piece of jewelry? Our fave thing about their personalized pieces is they go with absolutely everything! You can layer them and create a unique textured look for a night out or simply dressing up your favorite tee.  These inverted hoops have to be the most worn piece of jewelry I own, no matter what look I decide on I instantly think to add these dainty drops to my ears. Amber and I tend to keep our jewels on the lighter side, so it's fitting that all of Olive Yews pieces are soft enough to keep on for any look your going for! Be sure to check them out we know you'll love your purchases!

XOXO A + G

 

PUT IT IN [NEUTRAL]

Photograph's By Tiffany Co. Photography

First things first, these shoes are heaven on my feet. Sol Sana designed these gorgeous sandals with comfort in mind.  Comfort is one of the key characteristics Gabrielle and I look for when shopping for shoes.  Due to Gabrielle's bad feet post surgery, and my rheumatoid arthritis we need to keep this in mind, it is essential that we wear supportive, comfortable and trendy heels.  Finding this type of shoe is like finding a four leaf clover [lol]. Most designers like Steve madden, Chinese laundry and Vince Camuto focus on the making the shoes on trend instead  of creating a comfortable foot bed with arch support.  So again these shoes hit the nail on the head, they are super chic and trendy but still give our feet the support they need.  I wanted to create a look that is feminine and easy for a fresh spring date night look. I chose a lightweight embroidered blouse, light distressed denim, neutral sandals and this beautiful 70's inspired saddlebag.  To accessorize the outfit I utilized delicate gold fixtures and fun embellishments.  This bracelet from Banana Republic was the perfect addition to my look, adding just the right amount of cultural flair! This outfit is very easy to put together since all the colors are neutral.  You'll be ready for your date looking easy breezy and beautiful from head to toe!

XOXO A & G

So relieved that today is Friday! I've been blessed with catching this season's cold just in time for the weekend(sucks). On the other hand it makes for a great excuse for lounging in my bed all day, watching Law & Order re-runs! I love today's look it's so easy to put together. Sticking with all black pieces of different textures and fabrics is effortlessly chic. Adding a plaid flannel around my waist gives the look a more laid back vibe. These pieces are easy to wear with pumps, sandals or sneakers. My favorite part of this outfit is this chain-mail necklace! Such a stunning piece to have in my collection. It's bold yet simple, I can pair it with a basic tee or blouse. Amber and I loved getting to collaborate with Love and Pieces on this weeks looks.

Yumi Kim Maxi Dress

Haze Collection Sunnies

BCBG Sandals (TJmaxx): Similar Here

I fell in love yesterday with this fab Yumi Kim Maxi! It's bold print mixed with an elegant summery vibe is the perfect combination for a summer wedding attendee. The pattern stands out but at the same time flows throughout it's silky silhouette with ease. I'm attending a beach wedding tomorrow and thought I had my outfit figured out (since I've been planning it for 3 months), but of course I found this two days before I was to attend and in one second changed my mind! I paired this gorg maxi with a wicker clutch and nude sandals, allowing the dress to be the center of attention. The plunging neck line, and low cut back will be sure to turn a few heads! Ladies if your looking for a low key but stunning dress this wedding season please check out all of her lovely designs HERE! I found these sick sunnies at the trunk show I co-hosted yesterday afternoon. The sunnies are from Haze Collection, this amazing eye wear brand that is quickly picking up because of their intricate and funky new age designs! I was obsessed with these clear rimmed ones because of their rose colored lenses(they had me at rose)! Hope everyone enjoys today's post (sorry were uploading a little late)! Have an amazing weekend!

OrYANY + TWIN CROWD COLLAB

On Amber: Bag: Oryany; Oxfords: TJmaxx; Skirt: JCpenny; Shirt: Target; Watch: Skagen 

Today we are both so excited to share our first collaboration with our readers. OrYANY is an amazing company that creates unique and beautiful bags for the everyday woman! You can find their designs at retailers such as: Neiman Marcus, Anthropologie, and ShopBop.

They have asked us to each showcase one of their bags from the spring collection! Amber picked the Jasmine bag in Indigo Multi, this color stands out and compliments the classic stripes in her shirt. The mix of the bold indigo with  the neutral details is fabulous!  Classic stripes and a leather mini is always a great combo. Her gold statement earrings are a perfect compliment to the indigo hue of the bag. The unique structure of the bag works well with Amber's preppy chic look. Be sure to comment and let us know what you think !

Love love love this vest! So chic and simple. This vest is a perfect piece to add on to a dress, tee, or a silky blouse. These army green pants break up the outfit and add a mix up of colors. The metallic oxfords give a pop of shine! Amber pulled her hair back into a sleek topknot which works perfect with this look! This is an easy outfit full of style!
