Hi friends! I’m just going to pretend that we haven’t been
MIA for the past five months (insert cheeky grin).
Meet Amelia! A southern belle who can plate a table like the
best of them and serve a dish to match the décor while dancing barefoot with a
glass of bourbon to Ginuwine’s Pony. It’s
like Martha Stewart plus Betty Draper plus Leslie Knope all in one beautiful blonde
package. I visited Amelia in her new
city of residence, Dallas, TX, for a mini post-birth mommy’s night
out. While packing for our night out on
the town she suggested we partake in a Rubies-on-Vanilla styling session. So we took her basic green jumper and styled
it three different ways showing how versatile a perfect “basic” can be in any
wardrobe.
Paired with her “work” blazer, dressy heels and a statement
necklace, the jumper is perfect for the workplace, a happy hour with friends or
a date night with the hubs. Dressed down
a little with her long cardigan and flats, she can run errands or go on
playdates with her babe, Knox, in style and comfort. And finally paired perfectly for the state of
Texas with cowboy boots and a beautiful shawl, handed down from her mother, Amelia’s
ready to take on whatever the world throws her way.
It’s good to be back friends! And we have more to share soon. I hope this little styling session
inspires you to pull out a basic and pair it with bold accessories,
jackets, cardigans, shawls, scarfs and, of course, a take-me-as-I-am attitude!
