PopBasic Launch

I know there are a lot of sites that promise to send you goodies on a monthly basis based on your style and interests, but I was instantly drawn to Popbasic‘s take on it. They send you what they refer to as a “micro collection” every month that features one basic and two pop (or statement) pieces. It fit my style aesthetic perfectly – as you all know, I love to pair basics with bright and bold pieces to really make an outfit, well….pop! It just seemed like a match made in heaven. And now the site is prepping to launch next month, and I could not be more excited!

I also love that their idea of a basic is a polka dotted blouse, and that each parcel comes with a little beauty or lifestyle surprise. You can decide to buy it as an entire parcel or select individual pieces, which will be priced between $50 – $100 (with free shipping). If this, too, is all making you clap like a baby seal, click here to check out the first collection video and here to save your spot (it’s free)!

What I Wore:

What a gloomy weekend we had down here in Miami. It was definitely not the way we all wanted to welcome Fall, but here’s to hoping the sun decides to make a comeback soon. I know I’ve mentioned on the blog before that my mood gets severely affected depending on the weather (hello SAD), so I find it absolutely necessary to remedy it by wearing something colorful and adorable. It’s just the only way. 😉

What I Wore: Autumnal

It’s kind of funny that I enjoy Fall so much because we don’t have any semblance of seasons here in Miami aside from hot and unbearable. But when this time of year rolls around, I get a little warm and fuzzy feeling in my heart that isn’t zapped out of me until the mention of Christmas (my least favorite holiday – although decorating is fun). I’m pretty sure it has a lot of do with Halloween being my number one favorite holiday and my wedding anniversary. Oh, and pumpkin everything.

That is why I decided it was high time to start dressing a little more autumnal. And yes, this is autumnal for Miami. All you readers that are cozy in your scarves, boots and hot chocolates: try not to hate too bad. 😉

What I Wore: Neon & Dots

Who doesn’t love to reconnect with their childhood? I personally love to dress like my inner 6-year-old princess. It makes me feel light, full of life and a little less anxiety ridden. After all, wouldn’t we all want to go back to those easy, simple times where our biggest concern was which My Little Pony needed the most brushing? I know I would.

This outfit has everything I absolutely adore: sparkles, dots and neon! I also decided to face my peplum problem head on and give it a whirl. Turns out us curvy girls can also sport the style after all! Just remember to pair it with heels to give you maximum height to equal out the extra volume. I decided to push my height even further with a high bun paired with this adorable Ban.do bow. I love love love bright statement pieces!

Lets Do The Polka

Polka polka polka everywhere!
Like I mentioned a couple weeks back, I am loving the whole girly pattern trend that we can expect to see by the truckloads this Fall. I don’t believe you should really take yourself so seriously when it comes to fashion – I think more than anything, it is about having fun. So playful dots are definitely a trend I can get behind.

Here are some ways to incorporate polka dots in your life without breaking the bank. All items featured are under $30!

1. Conversation Pieces dotted shorts {link}
2. Forever 21 polka dot tissues {link}
3. West Elm pillow {link}
4. Hue dotted tights {link}
5. Mod Cloth peplum top {link}
6. Ban.do girlie chiffon bow {link}
7. Asos nail wraps {link}
8. Conversation Pieces peplum top {link}
