October Lookbook

I thought September flew by fast, but October traveled at the speed of light!  This past month's sartorial adventures showcased my love for polka dots, lace, leather, and chiffon.  And of course I had to throw in a couple diy'd pieces for good measure. :)

Hope you all had a spooktacular Halloween.  What did you dress up as?  If you want to see what I whipped up at the very last minute, check out my instagram. ;) (@elisharon).

Loving you is RED

My friend, C, recently surprised me with Taylor Swift's new album, RED.  Yes, my secret is out, I heart Taylor Swift.  I've been listening to it non-stop since getting it and I love it.  The irony though, is that I can't personally relate to the album.  Sure, I've experienced heart break when I was younger, but I was also lucky enough to find the love of my life at a very young age.  It's a rare thing, and not a day goes by that I don't thank the stars above for having the Pirate in my life. :)  If you're a Taylor fan, pick up her album, and if you're not a fan, pick up anyway!!

I was feeling kind of lazy today when I threw this outfit together,  I've had this maxi skirt for almost 3 years and it's definitely my go to piece when I need something quick and easy to wear.  I kept the look simple with this double layered keyhole blouse and black flatforms.  Yup, flatforms.  Ha!

Rad to the Bone

I made this lace dress over a year ago and have only recently worn it.  I don't know why I didn't wear it sooner.  I love it so much that I wore it twice in one week.  Yeah, I'm that girl! Ha!  This bone necklace was another piece that Tiff from Bamboo Sky sent me.  It's is so freakin' awesome.  Who knew that a gold bone could be so chic and so RAD!  Of course I had to add more radness to the look with these all over spiked Lita's.  Another pair from my hubby.  The Pirate seriously spoils me way too much.  He's not only my soulmate-y, but also my solemate. For life.  For realzzz.

Don't forget that you can save 10% off your Bamboo Sky purchase.  Just enter loveelisharon at check out. :)  You can thank me (and Tiff) later. Get shopping!

Caramel + Mint

The color mint was definitely the hot color for spring and summer, and I think it's perfectly fall appropriate as well.  Accented with warm tones, this hue can easily transition into a fall wardrobe.  I received this perfectly pleated mint skirt from Christy, owner of Simply Audrey.  I love her boutique, because she carries sweet and feminine styles like this teal peplum blouse (um, yeah, I'm still obsessed!), and also rad pieces like the Back Weave detail dress.  This dress is MAJOR!  I would totally rock it. Wouldn't you?

My first instinct was to pair the skirt with something more structured, but instead, I decided a piece just as delicate as the skirt would be a better choice... at least for today. :)  I was feeling extra girly this morning.  Of course, the look wouldn't be me if I didn't add an edgy element.  This skull bracelet fit the bill; dainty, but super rad!

A Lace Soiree!

Lace and leather would probably be one of my favorite pairings.  The romance and femininity of lace and the edgy and masculine vibe of leather pretty much sums up my style aesthetic.  I'm drawn to girly silhouettes, but I love accenting them with tougher elements.

My beautiful blogger buddy, Tiff (also owner of the awesome Honolulu based boutique, Bamboo Sky) sent over this rad lace top.  I love the contrast of the chambray yoke, unexpected and super amaze.  I love it to pieces!  Naturally, I had to pair it with my leather-like pleated skirt, and my new Jeffrey Campbell babies, the Soiree.  The Pirate surprised me with them yesterday and I had to wear it right away!  Gorgeous, right?  Like I've said a million times before, he knows the way to my heart... tee hee.

If you guys haven't heard about Bamboo Sky, you don't know what you're missing.  I love supporting local boutiques, especially ones that carry such MAJOR things, like the Total Exposure clutch and the Rhinestone Chambray blouse.  Bamboo Sky is offering my beloved readers 10% off your purchase on Shop.Bamboosky.com.  Just enter loveelisharon at checkout. (Offer ends on Oct. 28th) Shop your little hearts out... and let me know what you guys get!!  And don't forget to tell all your friends about Bamboo Sky!!!  Sharing is Caring, right? :)

September lookbook

Just a little outfit recap of the month that was.  I really can't believe we're already three days into October.  Time is whizzing by. Clearly, I love my Rayban sunnies & crossing my legs in photos.  I need a new pose.  Any suggestions?  Happy Hump Day-ing, loves!
