BEACHY VIBES

Photographed by Debra Robusto

On Gabrielle:
Sandals(old): Similar Here

Since I spotted this crocheted number at Zara a couple months ago, I knew it needed to be a part of my closet! I'm not a huge fan of sequins and shine, but they were the perfect touch to dress up the beachy vibe of the dress. I attended a wedding and the reception was right on the water, so i thought this would be quite appropriate. Black wasn't my first choice to wear since the Summer season allows us to wear bright colors, but I cant' help myself I love wearing black! If you love this dress as much as I do, you should scoop it up right away because its on major sale! Hope everyone has a great Monday!

On Amber:

We are always on the look out for a good sale and unique designers, so when we came across the upcoming flash sale site 9th&elm we were totally into there concept. Offering products from handmade and independent designers was an easy way to get our attention! Amber and I searched through the site over a face time call, I knew by Amber's face that she she found something she wanted, it was these bold teardrop earrings from DTLA. They offered them in so many cool color combos. and I knew these were her fav! Love the site so happy we found it, definitely go check it out!

LAID BACK

BCBG Sandals TJmaxx: Similar Here

I cant get enough of this gorgeous weather, hopefully it will stick around for the holiday weekend! We are now back to our normal posting schedule and I am in love with this look! A light summer scarf can completely change up a look giving an instant laid back summer vibe. I loved these shorts I scooped up from gap yesterday, (huge sale going on)! Originally  the bottoms of the shorts were rolled up and stitched, which was a bit long on me so I decided to give them a raw edge myself! I'm in love with the look of these block heeled sandals, I picked them up from TJmaxx, I provided an extremely similar pair available at Macy's. This look is perfect for a sunny day brunch or walk through town. Be sure to comment and let us know what you think!

FARMER'S MARKET

Photographed By: Debra Robusto

On Gabrielle:

When the Summer season shines upon The Hampton's, fresh, irresistible produce arrives and all the fruitful Farmer's Market's begin to open up. I thought what a stunning backdrop these bright floral's would make for a post, especially an all white outfit! This week has been a busy one for Amber and I, sometimes we can get a bit overwhelmed in our own worlds (unfortunately organization is not always on our side). This blog is such a passion to us both, we enjoy sharing our individual style with our reader's. I put together this breezy look with this amazing gauzy top from J crew (now on sale)! Sharp white raw edged denim paired perfectly. I payed my DIY intuitions a visit and destructed them myself. Even if your holes aren't perfect throw them in the wash and let it do it's magic! I found these strappy sandals at TJmaxx, and supplied our readers with a similar pair both equally gorg! My panama hat top's off my look (literally). Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and keep following along with us!

WITH STYLE & LACE

On Amber: Romper: Vestique; Booties: Dolce Vita; Watch: Skagen; Necklaces: Borrowed via mom
Sometimes the most simplest outfit's have the biggest impact. The key to creating a high impact outfit with little pieces is to use a statement piece such as a bold printed dress, an intricate romper or a silky jumper. The idea is to wow with one piece and then add accessories to compliment it and create interest. This romper from Vestique Boutique in Charlotte, N.C is the perfect example of a wow piece. The white color of the romper is clean and elongating and the ruffled top and lace details create an added playful element to the one-sie. It's the perfect piece to wear on a casual lunch date, or a Saturday spent with friends. You can dress this romper up or down depending on the accessories you choose to incorporate. For this look I wanted to layer dainty gold necklaces to complement but not overpower the garment.You can choose to go bold with a statement piece or minimal with layered jewelery. Either way you are sure to make an impact on whoever you walk by!

If you love this amazing romper as much as I do then you can purchase it online. Click the Vestique links in the paragraph above to check it out! Thank you!

TWINNING

Photo's By: Debra Robusto
On Gabrielle: Slip ons: Sam Edelman; Leather Skirt: Thrifted; Sweater: Old Navy; Watch: Larsson & Jennings; Clutch: Marc Jacobs 
On Amber: Oxfords: Gap; Skirt: Forever21; Blouse: Aerie; Denim Shirt: Gap; Watch: Skagen


Missing you! (Even though it's been two days). Our time was spent well together between laughter filled dinners and photo shoot's. The shoots are so different when were side by side (harder to be serious). We get the job done though! We both loved how these turned out, our readers get to experience our different styles. We like a lot of the same things, but you can always tell who's who by the way we dress. Amber's very girly, with a little bit of prep mixed in. I'd say my style is very laid back and simple; I always find my self drawn to a minimalistic look. In today's post we wanted to show how we would each style a casual look with a mini, be sure to comment and let us know what you think!

FOREST & CAMEL

On Amber: Jacket: J Crew; Sweater: Gifted; Pants; Gap: Sneakers: Sam Edelman; Clutch Gap



 The one thing Gabrielle and I really pride ourselves on is how we can always score a great deal. Since we are both in college and beginning our careers we can't really afford the clothes we wish we could. So were always on the hunt for a great steal. These coated skinny's are a perfect example of just that, while other companies charge $150-$300 for a similar version Gabrielle scored these for just $7.00! I know we couldn't believe it either. But some of the best times to shop is at the end of the season because everything is marked down to make room for the most recent apparel. This outfit was also a mix between high and low. The jacket is from J Crew and is a little pricier but unlike the skinny's this coat is going to last season after season it contains a timeless silhouette in a rich hue. This makes the item worth the splurge in my opinion. What Items in your closet are worth the splurge?

FLORAL JACKET'S


FROM TOP LEFT: 1./2./3./4.

Floral Patterns are that one trend that keeps resurfacing season after season in different ways. This Spring its all about floral prints on lightweight jackets, some use dainty ditsy floral's while others have over sized tropical patterns. Either way this is a fresh take on the ever changing trend. We also are showing you which jackets are our favorites this season. I choose this beautiful floral moto jacket while Gabrielle picked this light floral bomber. As you can see two of the four jackets are from Gap. Gap has really changed there style game with the addition of their new creative director, they are experimenting with prints and patterns that really push the envelope when it comes to their style esthetic. We love every minute of it, not only are they on point this season but the fit and silhouettes are still classic and long lasting. Also you can click the numbered links to purchase the pieces that you love.
