Today's Everyday Fashion - day to night

/





































A reader requested a "day to night look." It really doesn't get much easier than this - start with a cocktail dress with a long enough hemline for work, and just add a blazer for day. For night, add a clutch (and switch your shoes if you want), and you're ready to party!

Occasion: Work, then dinner/drinks
Dress: Express, $10 (bought many years ago)
Necklace: Banana Republic, $40
Shoes: Banana Republic, $22
Blazer: Banana Republic, $50

Stella Luca makeover!

/




























Ashley was the winner of the Stella Luca and J's Everyday Fashion makeover giveaway! Last Saturday we met up to redeem her prize - $250 in clothes from Stella Luca with yours truly as her personal sylist. Check out what she got, and you can read her winning entry here.

Green and white striped dress (left), $89 (perfect for Saturday errands, or with heels for a dinner date)
Gray tank top (right), $38 (love this tank top for a mom on the go like Ashley - it's basic enough to wear anywhere, but definitely not lacking in style!)





























Animal print dress (left), $58 (a great night time look for her upcoming cruise!)
Black sheath (right), $30 on sale (a classic black sheath that can be dressed up for church or date night alike)






































From left to right: Joy from Stella Luca, Ashley the contest winner, and lil ole me. Joy and Ashley are both in dresses and shoes from Stella Luca. You can read all about my outfit here.

Battle of the September Issues

/
























It's the battle of the September issues! Check out this great run-down from Refinery 29, and tell me:
- What magazines do you subscribe to?
- What's your favorite September issue so far?

My answers:
- Vogue, Elle, Instyle, Bazaar, Lucky, W (the last 3 I get for free with airline miles)
- I'm still waiting for Vogue and Bazaar to show up so it's too early to declare a winner! :-)

**Update**
Out of the 6 magazines I subscribe to, Bazaar was my favorite September issue! So many inspiring outfit ideas, I'm still daydreaming about it. :-)
