Moved!!!!

  I finally switched my blog to wordpress!!! It's something I have wanted to do for quite sometime and I'm thrilled that I have at last figured out how to do it(and did it all by myself) it was easier this time first attempt. Anywho You can still follow along for all new the posts over at artfullyartista.wordpress.com

 I will be deleting this blog in a few months, February to be more exact since I will not be using it. I have all the archived posts, pictures, and comments so I will not need this blog at all. So please update your links and bookmarks to the new address.


I hope you will come and join me as I continue blogging =)

Love,

The Chanel Affect

Lately I've been wearing less jewelry than I have in the recent past to the shock and amazement of my family(especially my little sis). But there's something so fresh about wearing less jewelz... As Coco Chanel so infamously said, "Before leaving the house, a lady should stop, look in the mirror, and remove one piece of jewelry."

So one piece of jewelry of perfectly coordinated maybe two has been what it's where it's at of late. It fits my mood perfectly... Anyone else feeling the Chanel Affect?

Take care sweet readers =)

Love,

The Shirtdress

I really haven't been wearing too many dresses lately, but I recently rediscovered the classic shirtdress and styled up a few collages on how a  little black one could be worn. They're so, so, so versatile I really have to get some more. A few super simple ones...

Wear it  simply with some ladylike pumps a structured clutch and some gold jewelry

Kenneth Jay Lane necklace 

Leopard Pumps and a flat option too.

ALLSAINTS black clutch

This fabulous little black dress also looks so cool when layered with a denim vest...

The classic Mulberry Bag an alternative by ZARA .

Mulberry Sandals alternative DV by Dolce Vita
 

Lastly to fend off the southern chill I love this denim jacket with leather sleeves I would wear it in a hot second LOVE it and the Marni shoes one day I would love to get a pair...

Find the jacket here,  The shoes, and an alternative clutch here.

Here are a few shirt dresses that have caught my fancy....

The Alexander Wang dress that's seen in all the collages This fun oxford style Alexander Wang shirt dress is super cute too.

This JJill shirt dress caught my eye and it's on sale!

Take care all! I hope you're having a wonderful Tuesday. =)
