Clothing Organization
Packing and unpacking when you move is a pain, but the upside is that when you get to your new place you can re-organize, make a new system, and start over with how you want to organize your clothes and accessories. I debated whether to write this post, even though I had said I would write a closet organization post, for fear that it would be super boring. But, I decided there might be someone out there who would find it interesting to see how I organized my clothes. First things first – I know I have a lot of clothes. I’ve always had a lot of clothes even before blogging.…

Lace Romper Styling
Summer Date Night by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring strappy sandals When Polyvore had a summer date night challenge, I knew I wanted to look for some kind of romper. This black, lace romper with a deep plunge neckline looked perfect! Since I’m the one styling it, I like to imagine how I would wear it. The plunging neckline is a little too risqué for me but I love the idea of it so I would wear a lace bralette underneath. Still sexy and matches well with the lace and sheer look of the romper but offers a little more coverage. And how pretty is the back of this romper? I love…

Vintage Love: Retro Sunglasses
Vintage Love: Retro Sunglasses by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring mid rise skinny jeans I planned to have this post go live weeks ago before I knew that today was the solar eclipse! Now these sunglasses won’t help you during the eclipse, but still seems a fitting post! If you know me, you know I love sunglasses. They’re the perfect accessory any time of year and I love to match them with what I’m wearing. As you know, everything old is always new again so these large framed YSL vintage sunglasses are the perfect retro/vintage love piece as well as an item that could probably be hot right now! The rose gradient…

How to Dress for a Heat Wave
How to Dress for a Heat Wave by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring summer dresses Yesterday it was pouring all day so we’re not exactly in the middle of a heat wave here, but nonetheless I’m sharing this heatwave look I put together for a Polyvore challenge because you never know if there’ll be some more really hot days around the corner before summer is over. I thought this dusky blue and coral print halter dress would be perfect for a super hot day with it’s open back and plunge neckline. The halter design and back strap lends support and one of the last things you want to wear in the extreme…

Emoji Fashion
Emoji Fashion by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring white slip on shoes I’m sure we all use emoji’s when we’re texting and/or on social media because they are fun and can sometimes convey a feeling that we can’t quite put into words. I thought the Polyvore Emoji Fashion challenge was fun so I wanted to give it a try. I chose this white pleated mini skirt with emoji print, a light pink slub tee, white platform sandals, and a black backpack with a LOL Tears emoji on it. The backpack features one of my favorite emoji’s and the backpack is so on trend right now. Funnily enough this look is similar to…

Stay Golden: Dressing in Marigold
Stay Golden: Dressing in Marigold by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring a golden belt How gorgeous is this marigold color? I think it’s incredibly versatile too. The bright orange gold is nice for summer and the rich hue is also perfect for fall. For Polyvore’s marigold challenge I thought it would be nice to go with this plain marigold dress with balloon sleeves. I think the vibrant color and sleeves are all the dress needs with no extra frills. The gold metal bow belt is a nice focal point to the dress and cinches the waist. The gold winged sandal heels elevate the outfit and are a nice finishing touch to the…

Magic Slippers: Embellished Shoes
Magic Slippers: Embellished Shoes by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring a bow tie choker I (not so) secretly want to go to a garden party. It would be my Pinterest dream come true. What could be better than delicious food, a gorgeous tablescape, beautiful fresh flower arrangements, twinkle lights, and to be surrounded by lush greenery? Doesn’t it just sound beautiful? I told my best friend once that when I (hopefully) someday get married I want my bridal shower to be a garden party. I don’t know if she remembers that I said that, but if she’s reading this now this is a reminder. Plus, when that day comes I’ll be very…

Check Republic: Gingham Dress
Check Republic: Gingham Dress by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring Lilly Pulitzer Gingham is the quintessential summer pattern. Sure, it reminds me of a picnic tablecloth, but it’s just so cute! For the gingham challenge on Polyvore, I chose this navy dress with a criss cross back because I think the open back is so pretty for summer. For a little bit of fun summer bling, I chose this colorful Lily Pulitzer bracelet with beads and shells. I finished off the look with wedge espadrilles – another summer staple. What do you think of gingham?

Say What: Statement T-Shirts
Say What: Statement T-Shirts by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring king pillowcases I love statement t-shirts but they have to be cute and/or clever and funny. I think they can be really fun to wear like this “Namaste in Bed” one. I’ve seen shirts like this on social media for a few years now and it still cracks me up. I definitely need to get one for myself one day. For this statement t-shirt challenge on Polyvore, I chose this shirt and decided to style a bedroom scene to accompany it. The bedroom I chose looks so bohemian and dreamy and the window looks like it could be looking out onto a…

Chic Oversized Coat
Chic Oversized Coats by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring brown leather boots Yesterday felt like summer! Today is supposed to be nice too, but as with your average spring weather some days are cool and some are warm bordering on hot. Spring and fall are the perfect times of the year to play around with outerwear. You’re more limited in winter, unless you have enough spare money to buy multiple winter coats, but those are more expensive than lightweight jackets for spring and fall! The oversized coat look has been around for a while. An oversized coat is perfect to throw on when it’s a bit cool because you can wrap yourself…
