Lace up Sweatshirt Dress Ft. Six Hearts Boutique

Happy Halloween everyone! I always love dressing up and seeing all of the creative outfits. This year I was a fighter pilot (not as creative as my previous years, but let’s me honest, hanging out with friends and candy are the main part of why I like to dress up. This year I did all of my halloween festivities the weekend before so I am planning on watching scary movies (more like Stranger Things) at home on the actual day of halloween instead.  Even though I dress up a lot on my blog, I am really a oversized sweatshirt with leggings kind of girl.  Tonight I chose to wear this cozy lace up hoodie dress from Six Hearts Boutique. 

Black Lace Up Hoodie Dress (Wearing a small) // Suede Over the Knee Boots

Now, I know what y’all are thinking, “that is NOT loungewear with those boots Ashley” .  Yes I know, but that is what makes this hoodie dress amazing.  Is that it can be dressed UP or DOWN.  To dress it up all you need to do is throw on a pair of over the knee boots and to dress it down thrown on some tennis or a large pair of comfy socks.

Black Lace Up Hoodie Dress // Suede Over the Knee Boots

If you haven’t been looking at winter fashion trends, over the knee boots are a must have.  I love wearing them with jeans (to add an extra layer of warmth), but I love them even more with a dress.  The key is to wear the right length of dress with OTK boots. You don’t want your dress to overlap with your boots (that just looks awkward).  You to need about 4-8 inches of leg between the boot and the dress.  I love this because dresses typically run short on me anyway and the OTK boots give a little more coverage.  My favorite brands of over the knee boots are Steve Madden and Target.  Right now Steve Madden is having a 25% off sale and target is have a $10 offer! Another of my favorite places to find over the knee boots are DSW or Nordstrom.   The boots I am wearing run a little small so I would order a half a size up.  Click HERE to get the boots I am wearing.

Where I shop for Over the knee boots:

DSW Over the Knee Boots

Target Over the Knee Boots

Nordstrom Over the Knee Boots

Macy’s Over the Knee Boots

One of the biggest reasons why I love Six Hearts Boutique is that the clothes are affordable and cheap.  The website for Six Hearts Boutique is currently under maintenance, but you can check out the cute styles on either Instagram or Facebook.

Happy Shopping!

The “Always Late” Sweatshirt ft. Rachel Rene Designs

The “Always Late” Sweatshirt ft. Rachel Rene Designs

Every fall I always have to get three things:  honey crisp apples the size of my head, caramel to dip those apples in,  and pumpkins of course! Last week I finally made it out to the pumpkin patch with my dearest friend and her little girl.  What I love about going to the pumpkin patch is the “hunt” for the perfect pumpkin. For those of you who don’t know me,  I can get easily distracted by coffee shops, photo spots, thrift stores, and markets along side the road which often makes me late, therefore,  I chose to stick with this cozy soft olive green “Always Late” sweatshirt from Rachel Renee Designs.

Can I just please say how soft and cozy this “Always Late” sweatshirt is?   I love how it is a lighter material so I can layer it with a vest or another jacket.  Sometimes wearing a heavy sweatshirt can be too much.  Rachel Rene Designs is an Etsy shop that has the cutest and most creative customizable apparel for every age and demographic.   I recently wore a “hoosier tee” from her shop about a month ago.  Because Rachel is so sweet and amazing, she is letting me give you 10% your entire order with code; ASHLEY10 in her Etsy shop!

Almost a year ago today I had some time to spare in Downtown Greenville, SC and I came across a cute boutique called Dress Up.  I was not surprised when I came home and discovered that they have 20 locations in the South.  Although I am sad that there are none in the Indy area, I am glad that they are slowly making their way up north.  The closest location is in Nashville.   Continue reading “DressUp Favorites (knit kimono)” →

On our way home from Nashville this weekend I wore a sleeveless duster that I purchased last spring from one of my favorite southern boutiques, Dress Up. What I love about dusters is that they usually come in a lighter material and are similar to a kimono but longer. It is a perfect way to dress up a look. I love wearing them with shorts or jeans and pairing them with heels or booties. Because I bought this duster a while back, it is no longer available…. BUT… I have attacked my favorite fall dusters from Dress Up for you below. All you have to do is click on the image to shop. If you have never shopped at Dress Up before, most items don’t last longer than a few days on their site haha – soooooo.. HAPPY SHOPPING! Continue reading “Flowy Fall Dusters” →
