Boho dressing Inspired by Latitude

I love everything about this look that Latitude had on their blog and in their email blast.  The suede skirt unbuttoned with the Mexican top tucked in, the lace up flats (Jesus shoes), the tassel earrings and the Mochila bag are all PERFECTION!  Every piece in this look is amazing!

Here are the items I found that were inspired by these pieces:

Of course I looked to Etsy for the suede skirt:

Vintage High Waist Suede Skirt $30



Vintage brown suede A-line skirt $44

Vintage suede skirt / A line / 70's Chocolate brown suede snap front midi long skirt $75

Brown Leather Skirt Dark Chocolate Brown Suede High Waisted A line Push Buttons Hippie Skirt $34



Latitude for the Mexican Blouse:



The Mochila bag...I LOVE these:


The Jesus shoes:)

Faryl Robin + Free People Womens Vegan Tie Up Sandal $88


I love the idea of DIYing the tassel earrings...I have done it before and they turned out pretty cool.  Honestly WTF has a version that looks pretty cool.

Just learned what Canadian Tuxedo means...

Wearing denim on denim. Which has been a strong trend for a few years now. Here are some fun new ways to try wearing the trend and a new way to refer to it:)

Update: I started working on this a while ago because my hubby had told me about the new term...apparently my fave bloggers, Honestly WTF were n'sync with moi and posted the same thing today with some great ideas. Thought I would finish up my post (finally...it's harder with 3 kids to take care of:) and give some other ideas I found. Hope you find inspiration from both!


Let's bring back the denim skirt...ready, set, go:)


It's all about using two different colors of denim...dark/light...and I love the mochila bag plus the heels...will be doing this...Plus, notice the rolled cuff on the jeans...kinda goes back to the top...love.  P.S. you can get a mochila like this one from Flechada.


DIY idea on the knees...love the oversized denim shirt.  And the shoes are to DIE!

I love the new silhouette for the denim top here.  And then this is more like a suit, matchy matchy version of the trend.  Thoughts?


Once again, the denims here are a little more similar here.  I LOVE the use of the ivory blazer to break it up and add a little funk.


J. Crew can do no wrong...I think I saw the denim layering there first actually....keep watching their catalogs for more brilliant inspiration for how to wear this fun pair of denim on denim!

How to get the Alexander Wang Fabiana High Heel Sandals for less...well, kind of...with a bit of a DIY twist

I had decided to scan through the shoe section on Charlotte Russe the other day to see what designer look-a-likes I could find and found something close to an Alexander Wang shoe I've been lusting after for a while...the metallic shoes are GENIUS and I would LOVE to own a pair...but, since I doubt that will be happening I figure a look-a-like could be fun.

Alexander Wang Fabiana High Heel Sandals
The look-a-like:
Charlotte Russe
*The shoe also comes in silver and a metallic blue...I just LOVE rose gold:)  I know it's not the perfect match...but for $33 it's close:)  Has anyone seen anything closer?

Update: Here is another closer version of the Alexander Wang shoe from our friends at Collage Boutique!



Now, for the DIY:
I'm not sure exactly what you need to do...I'd guess that you'd need a metallic/rose gold or silver fabric and glue it to the back.  Is it that easy?  Has anyone else seen it done.  I think that Honestly WTF will be doing a DIY...so, let's stay tuned:)
