Wine Red 1950's Cape Swing Dress

Dress- Retro Stage
Shoes- Amazon
Belt- Amazon


Light Green 1950's Floral Dress

Dress- RetroStage
Beret- Shein

I love vintage dresses, and so I decided to focus on some fall and winter styles.
Retro Stage reached out to me, so I was sent these dresses, and I think they're just perfect!!

Accessorizing  is key for these looks, especially that pink beret. You'll find me wearing all the beret's in every color this fall/winter.
I think that first red dress would be perfect for Christmas! It's so unique and gorgeous with that cape.

And the black 1920's dress is gorgeous! The fringe on the bottom is the perfect detail.

Morton Salt Girl Halloween Costume


Dress- Shein
Shoes- Shein
Umbrella- Amazon

This year for Halloween I'm dressing up as the Morton Salt Girl!
I've always really liked the packaging to this salt because it looks so vintage, and you all know I'm a sucker for anything vintage.

I thought about dressing up as her a couple years ago but haven't been able to until this year. I love how it turned out! This is one of those home made costumes where I put all the pieces together and even had to make a few things...this salt doesn't come in that big of a container, so I made my own.
I also had to paint the hook part of the umbrella yellow.

I'm not sure if these pictures have picked it up, but my cheeks are covered in chunky glitter to represent salt, and I thought a red lip really pulled it all together (thanks to my husband for helping me pick a lipstick! I really had a hard time figuring out what would work best).

I'm so glad I finally got to dress up as her for Halloween.
 I sure do love all that yellow!

Pennywise The Clown Halloween Outfit


 Shirt- Walmart
Boots-Dr.Martens

This Halloween people are going crazy over Pennywise The Clown, and I am one of those people!
I love both of the It movies, and so I felt extremely inspired to try out a Pennywise inspired makeup.

I didn't really want to dress up as Pennywise though, so I went searching for a 'You'll Float Too' shirt, and I found the perfect one, surprisingly, at Walmart.com. 
It was a really good deal so I snagged it!  

All that was left is a red balloon and a rad makeup look! I know this doesn't look exactly like Pennywise, but it was super easy and totally wearable for Halloween night!

I am so excited for Halloween!!
What is everyone dressing as?

Halloween Costume for Glasses

Hat- Shein
Sweater- Amazon
Shorts- Shein
Socks- I can't remember...but if I had to guess Walmart
Boots- Primark
Glasses- Firmoo

Last year I did a Halloween look featuring glasses, and this year Firmoo reached out again and asked me to do another.

I decided to do a  Jack-O-Lantern look.
I liked the idea of this because it really concentrates on the mouth, leaving the eyes free for glasses, plus the glasses work as the Jack-O-Lantern's eyes.

I always love picking up a few spooky pieces every year for the Halloween season, and this year I got this sweater, and a pair of Jack-O-Lantern earrings. I'm not sure you can spot the earrings in these pics, but they are there! I've also been into beret's lately, and this one works as a sort of Jack-O-Lantern topper.

I painted on the mouth with water activated face paint, and I love how it all turned out!!

Are you excited for spooky season??
I'm definitely ready for it!!!

Retro Stage Vintage Dresses Review


1950's Polka Dot Dress-Retro Stage
Sandals-Wholesale Fashion Shoes
Tennis Shoes-Rue21

I recently did a video reviewing a website called Retro Stage, and shortly after posting it they reached out to me and asked if they could send me a couple dresses. I was super excited about it because I loved the first dress I bought!!

This polka dot dress is the cutest ever!! I love it so much, and I have a big love for 1950's inspired clothing. The fit of this dress is perfect, and I paired it with two different shoes.

The first is a classic pair of white heel sandals. I wear these a ton in the summer!

Then I paired it with plain white tennis shoes and ankle socks. This gave me the opportunity to jump and run! 
Because that's what you're supposed to do in dresses, right?? 



Gray 1920's Fringe Gatsby Dress-Retro Stage
Heels-I can't remember where I got these...maybe Burlington. I have no idea.

The second dress I chose is this amazing 1920's inspired dress!
I love The Great Gatsby, and this dress is perfect for that!
If you are looking to dress up like you're going to a party at Gatsby's, then Retro Stage is the website for you!

There are a ton of different 20's inspired dresses, but I love the fringe on this dress!! When walking or dancing or running or whatever movement you do, this dress looks stunning!! The fringe sways and it's just gorgeous!

I have a coupon you can use to get 15% off!! I'm super excited about this!
Just use the code: CHRISTINA
On the website!

I did a video where you can see both of these dresses in action!
Check that out here!

Sunflower Summer Outfit

Top-Shein
Skirt-Forever21
Boots-Primark

I'm almost positive every summer I have at least one OOTD based around sunflowers.
I can't help it! I go onto every clothing stores website and search sunflowers and all the best clothes pop up!

This year I found this sunflower shirt on shein, and the price was right so I bought it!
The skirt is an oldy but a goody! It's a whimsical one and will probably be in my closet forever.
The boots are special because I got them while I was in London years ago.

Lately I've been pairing combat boots with super girly (for lack of a better word) outfits.
I guess I've always done this, but lately it's been every outfit.

At the end of this shoot my baby boy woke up from a nap, so I grabbed him and snapped some pics, and he is just the cutest baby ever!!

Anyway, I'm not actually the biggest fan of summer, and it goes on and on and on and on. Never-ending heat! But there are fun things, like pools and popsicles and...I'm sure there are other good things.

Fall will be here before I know it though (hopefully, right??).
