Shoes are my weakness. And that’s the understatement of the century. I firmly believe a good pair of shoes can change your outfit…maybe your life. Hey, it worked for Cinderella!
 
In all seriousness, I’m addicted to shoes. Heels, sneakers, espadrilles, boots…you name it, I’ve got it! And a good pair (whether it be comfort or style) really can make an outfit and put some extra pep in your step. I know I feel extra special with a new pair of pumps before an interview, all the while feeling extra glam with a new pair of heels before an event or party!
 
Well this year I was on the hunt for a new statement shoe to get me through the holidays. I wanted something festive but practical at the same time- luxurious, but not something that would break the bank. Well, I looked no further than DSW. With their wide variety of styles, I found these velvet beauties that are perfect to wear with jeans to work, or dress up for a holiday party! Plus, I love that DSW has the newest trends…including velvet! My favorite part? These were less than $70! It’s a holiday miracle!
 
So I know you dolls have lots going on this season and if you’re in need (or just want!) some new shoes to add to your collection, make sure to check out DSW for the latest selection of footwear. PLUS, this weekend they are having the best Black Friday sale. Make sure to go online or head to the store for details.
 
Happy shoe hunting babes! Xo

Hi Dolls,

 

Happy pre-Thanksgiving! I hope everyone is having a great start to their week and wrapping up items at work in preparation for the holiday. Speaking of work, I’m really excited to share with you the last of the looks from my recent collaboration with Brunello Cucinelli!

 

If you’re a frequent visitor to BPD, then you might have seen my recent weekend and evening looks featuring the brand. So what’s left you ask? The work week of course!

 

I often say that my workwear uniform consists of a pair of distressed jeans, a white collared shirt, and some sort of luxe accessory, whether it be a shoe, scarf, or jewelry.  Well in partnering with Cucinelli, I was able to stick to my workwear staples, but take my look to the next level of Italian luxury.  For my look, I opted for tuxedo jeans – a little more glitzy than my usual pair, a billowy chiffon blouse (with tank underneath) and the key to my signature work look – a slip-on loafer.  I wear my usual pair almost every day, but these take the cake with their shiny fringe detail.  Because of the recent chill that’s hit Atlanta, I topped off my look with a charcoal mohair coat. And finally…probably my favorite piece of the entire collaboration was the two-tone fox fur scarf! I would wear this every day if I could, and think understated blush and grey color palette is just heavenly. I usually wear a navy stole, but I loved the versatility of the lighter color, plus the contrast against my hair.  It’s absolutely my fav! Of course, want details on all of the items? Make sure to click the links below! Love the look, but want it for less? I’ve also got you covered with links below!

Happy Friday dolls! As many of you probably saw, I recently partnered with the Brunello Cucinelli at the Shops of Buckhead to highlight some of this season’s looks. I’m a huge Cucinelli fangirl, so the opportunity was to-die-for, as I got to pick three different looks that I would wear in my everyday life. I kicked off the series with an evening wear look that I’d typically wear for an event or a night out on the town with Jason! If you haven’t seen it yet, then please go look – the clothes are too beautiful to miss!

 

For this post, I really wanted to showcase a more casual look that I might wear on the weekends. I opted for a tulle skirt, leather biker jacket, simple tank, and sneakers! While everything from Cucinelli is a showstopper, let’s start with the skirt. The full tulle skirt could read ballerina, but it’s more modern with built in leggings for comfort and cover under the sheer layers. Leggings built in…genius! By far my favorite piece happened to be the leather jacket…no surprise there! The buttery cognac leather screams luxury an the shearling lining kept me warm on the coldest day of the year thus far. Finally, I finished my look the sneakers with a metallic detail that read chic yet athletic at the same time. Overall, this look is perfect for grabbing brunch with friends, running errands, and an afternoon prosecco – all items on weekend to-do list! Love the look? Click the links below for further details on each Cucinelli piece and also the look for less! Next up…my workday look with Cucinelli. So I hope you dolls check back in to read that! xo
