What do Shannon of Shannon Hearts and I have in common? We both have brown eyes. And husbands. And fashion blogs. That’s it. Ohhh wait – we also have the same name! (durrrrrrf) But it turns out that’s not even the BIGGEST reason why I fell for this girl. Mostly it was because she’s HOT (I’m shallow) and because her blog kicks major fashion trash. Most of all, she’s a major sweetheart. And as we all know, a beautiful heart makes a beautiful girl (I’m not actually shallow. kind of.). It doesn’t hurt when she dresses like a regular Rachel Zoe either. Which is why Shannon of Shannon Hearts is this week’s Style Crush! Read on for all of her killer insights on style, blogging, and fashion. 1. How would you describe your style? My style is natural, girly and uncomplicated. I am drawn to feminine clothing, and I am a…
Style Crush: Coffee Beans & Bobby Pins!
Homegirl has got style, charm, an adorable blog, and on top of it all she is sugary sweet! Which is why Amy of Coffee Beans & Bobby Pins is this week’s Style Crush! How would you describe your style? Sporadic. I have always loved clothing/accessories. Although we’ve all had those “I have nothing to wear” moments, getting dressed is such a fun way to determine who you’ll be for the day or night. Although I gravitate more towards classic/feminine looks, sometimes it’s so fun to try on a new style like rock, tomboyish, or boho for the night. Who are your fashion icons? I love Lauren Conrad, everything she puts on seems so wearable and real. Olivia Palermo is another gal with some great threads, and of course, who can forget the classic like Jackie O or Audrey? Where do you go for fashion inspiration? Honestly, I love looking at…
Style Crush: Allison of Sisters in the City!
That time when a beautiful lady had a blog called Sisters in the City where she featured outfits that were tooooootally Style Crush worthy and then it turned out that this beautiful lady was beautiful on the INSIDE as well, which is my most favorite thing in all the land (cuz if you’re beautiful on the outside but NOT on the inside, you might as well be a wart faced balding bearded dwarfed hobbit with leprosy, as far as I’m concerned.). Which is why Allison of Sisters in the City is this week’s GBO Fashion Style Crush! 1. How would you describe your style? As a little girl, playing dress up was my absolute favorite thing and I really never grew out of it. That kind of explains my style in a nutshell. I love classic and feminine pieces but I absolutely love mixing things up and adding edgy or trendy items to the…
I love… My Style Crushes!
In honor of the Week of Love, I had to give a shout out to all of the lovely bloggers who have been selected as GBO Fashion Style Crushes in the past. The Style Crush Award is a highly prestigious honor extended to one lucky lady every week. Recipients of the award MUST have amaze-balls style (obvi), BUT – there’s a little more to it than that. All these beauties were chosen as Style Crushes not only because of their killer style, but because they are also wonderful human beings. These are the types of bloggers who email you back; Who are personable and warm and friendly – so much so that genuine friendships are formed all via cyber space. They’re the types who are open and generous, always willing to help. They are supportive and encouraging. Above all, they are kind. These gals make me glad that I started a…
Style Crush: Taylor Swift
Confession: I. Heart. Taylor Swift. Yep – that’s the truth. And I don’t curr who knows it! Say what you will about T. Swift – in MY humble opin, she’s one of the few gals (and by few I mean only) in the music industry who seems to be at least mildly wholesome. And sure – she’s no Mariah Carey. BUT, her songs are adorable and I don’t even hate the way she sounds singin’ them. AND, on top of it all, she has killer style. Which is why Taylor Swift is today’s Style Crush! Reasons why we dig T. Swift’s style: she rocks the retro vintage look like she invented it. The oxfords, the 50’s inspired dresses, the old school Ray Bans, the cross-body bags, the red lipstick – ALL of it. I just can’t get enough. And I love that she’s so consistent. Home girl knows what works for…
