Today's the day! I'm off to to New York City to cover NYFW with Wallis Fashion {pinch me}! During my time in the city, The London NYC will be home away from home. I couldn't be more excited to cover street style at Lincoln Center and catch a few shows on Friday and Saturday before we head back home.

My Style: Summer to Fall with Wallis Fashion, Part 2

gifted Wallis Fashion dress | Steve Madden Boots | Forever 21 Leather Jacket

To be honest, when I went to remix this Wallis dress for fall, my mind came up blank. All I could think about was the 90 degree heat and the thought of putting on tights made me sick to my stomach. So when in doubt, always reach for the leather jacket. Swap the sandals for ankle booties and toss that jacket over your shoulders and out the door you go. 

If you like this look, I'd love for you to head over to the Wallis Facebook Page and vote for my look! Of the top five most voted looks, Wallis will select one winner to represent them at Fashion Week - I'd love your support!

My Style: Wallis US Blogger Ambassador Contest

I recently participated in a contest along side many stylish bloggers highlighting this Wallis blazer.  After the contest concluded, Wallis asked if I would participate in their search to find their US Blogger Ambassador. The winner will get flown to London at the end of April to be introduced as the new US face of WallisFashion.com and spend the year representing the fashion powerhouse not only in the UK but the US as well. 

I would be honored to represent a company that has a dedicated petites collection for ladies 5'3" and under {I'm 5'3"...on a good day} and pieces that are very wallet friendly for that working girl on a budget! You could pick up this, this, and these, each under $100!

In order to vote, you must first like the Wallis Facebook Page then click the banner at the top to direct you to the voting page. You can vote 1 time per day for the next two weeks (voting will end at midnight on April 9). After a two week period, a winner will be chosen from the top five bloggers who have received the most votes! Vote for me here and keep voting {and sharing on Twitter & Facebook} for the next two weeks - I will be forever grateful!

When jeans just don't fit the bill, these khaki-esqe pants easily come to the rescue. I dressed up these pants with my favorite tank-blouse from Forever 21 {such a diamond in the rough find}, and of course this blazer. A perfect mix of comfortable with a hint of business for those Friday's in the office. 

This is my final outfit for the Wallis Style Blogger Pinterest Challenge! Pin your favorite look and I will be forever grateful! :)

This is a normal Monday-Thursday working girl attire for me. I picked these trousers up in Vegas and fell head over heels for the jacquard print. These, paired with a pair of bright shoes, help soften the blow of yet another round of snow. Slowly but surely spring will arrive!

This is my third outfit for the Wallis Fashion Style Blogger Challenge! If you like this outfit, make sure to click the "Pin this Look" link to help a girl out! :)

Chalk up another ten points for the chambray shirt. This shirt may be the best investment I've ever made. I would say it is a definite closet essential for every woman along with this Wallis Blazer. And by the way, neon sandals are a must when there is at least 6 inches of snow on the ground and I'm at my wits end with mother nature.

Cody and I spent Saturday in Iowa City, a quick little jaunt to pick up a chair for our house and to get my ring resized. The best part about taking these photos? The loving audience in the Quinton's window getting a behind-the-scenes look at the makings of this post!  I always get a bit nostalgic when returning to my college town. Seeing coeds wander in and out of the shops on their way to their favorite bar to grab afternoon drinks while cheering on the Hawks. Bar crawls starting much too early in the afternoon. And the food, oh the food. No stop is complete to Iowa City without stopping by my favorite restaurant in the ped mall!

The next four days I will be remixing this navy blazer thanks to Wallis Fashion in a little style blogger challenge! They asked us to style four different outfits around this blazer. I choose to go with two casual and two work-to-weekend looks. After doing a bit pinterest research, I realized I had all the inspiration I needed right in my own closet. One would be surprised at how easy it would be to make this blazer work with just about every outfit!

Like this look? Make sure and PIN THIS LOOK and I will be forever grateful! :)
