It’s stillll summer, despite all the new, flanneled, quilted, and leathered fall lines popping up everywhere. I admit, I get pretty excited about wearing fall clothes; there are so many layers and options to play with, and I can practically smell the thin, cold air mixed with crunchy leaves! But a huge part of me
First Date: Shop the Looks
Styling clients for dates has been a top request for our stylists, lately (coupled with weddings). So, we thought we’d start regularly posting some outfit inspiration for those of you currently playing the dating field. If you’re already married, or in a steady relationship, these posts can give you some “date night” inspo, too –
Desk-to-Dinner: Stripes + Floral
Aaaand we’re back to the good ol’ standby pencil skirt! Boy, does that girl have your back (literally). The one I’m wearing is stretchy, and the playful print keeps it fresh and fun in-and-out of the office. I kept my office look on the casual side (cuz that’s how I usually roll), and paired it
SMP Style Skip: Deep Sea "Workwear" Blues
When I lived in Nashville, and thumbed through the pages of Elle, Vogue, and Allure, I knew I had at least 6-8 months before trends hit the street. I had time to window shop, and mentally prepare my outfits – not to mention my budget. Now that I live in one of the fashion capitals
SMP Style Skip: Deep Blue Sea
Our sehr schön, German partner blogger, Roya of Blue Jeans White Shirt, suggested a “Deep Blue Sea” theme for this month’s Skip! It could be nautical-inspired, beachy, or just something deep blue…. While I didn’t go for anything very nautical or beachy, I immediately knew I wanted to shoot near the deepest blue hue I’ve
Let's Date…. All Day + Night
We’ve now reached the middle of wedding season, and we’ve been busy little styling bees over here at Style Me Perfect, styling clients for bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, indoor/outdoor weddings, etc…. but lately, we’ve also been called upon to help clients get ready for a different kind of big day – a sequence of big days,
Spotted: Sweats + a Striped Tee
I love mixing prints and playing with color every now and then (can you tell?)! You know what I also love? This yellow sweatshirt skirt from H&M. It’s one of those pieces that can brighten any mood, and doesn’t even wrinkle when your two-year-old wads it up, and stuffs it in his Lightning McQueen backpack.
4th of July: Stars + Stripes + Chambray
Woot!! This mama is on vacay, and I’m loving every second of it!! So, in honor of celebrating America this 4th, I put together a little patriotic “stars + stripes” look. Can you feel the warm sunshine, cool lake breeze, and smell the bbq? Ahhhh….. Oregon Wearing: Tank: INC. Skirt: BB Dakota (similar). Necklace: Diana
Edge-up Your Work Style
We’ve covered punch-up your work style, so why not try edging it up a bit? I decided to try this with three key pieces: skirt, top, and shoes (but you could certainly opt to try just one!). I love the wrap skirt! It has a similar look to your classic pencil, but packs a little
The Fine Fellow: Rain Gear
Rainy season is upon us, which begs the question: how does a self-respecting dude stay dry in the elements without looking elementary? It’s all in the top-coat, my friend. North Face and Patagonia make excellent gear for the sporty guy that works at the local climbing gym, but most post-college men at least have to
