Valentine's Date Night

Sweater: Lilly Pulitzer (similar, similar) | Skirt: Nordstrom (similar, similar) | Clutch: GiGi NY 

Shoes: DSW (similar) | Watch: Kate Spade 40% off | Bracelet: J.Crew

I love getting dressed up for date night, Valentine's Day is no exception. I am a pink girl myself, so I tend to stick with pink apposed to red's for Valentine's day. The pop of purple with the clutch just makes the outfit even more girly. I have been dieing to wear these shoes since I got them on clearance at DSW for $30 a few weeks ago. I was so upset, I forgot to put on my pink lipstick before pictures ): I forget to reapply lipstick a lot haha. I hope everyone has a great Valentine's Day, I send my love.

So have I mentioned my love/obsession with bows lately, because I think they need to create BLW(bow lovers anonymous) it is becoming a problem. I put together this look for holiday parties and semi formal events with friends and family. Sadly I am too young to have any friends that are hosting fancy cocktail parties, so this look really fits the level of formality for the parties which I attend. I think skirts are great to wear for events if you are not sure how dressy/casual to dress.  Skirts set off a more casual tone then dresses do generally. A great thing about a lace skirt like this one is that I can wear it year around, and believe me I do. Choosing a mild heel like the Kate Spade bow heels I am wearing allows for you to be comfortable, so you can stand and talk to your friends all night. 

This is my first time getting to wear my new J.Crew lady day coat and I was very excited, and am loving it as much as I thought I would. I will post a more in depth product review of the coat once I have worn it a few more times and have really gotten to know what I like/dislike about the coat. 

I hope everyone is enjoying the Holidays and speeding lots of needed time with family and friends!!

Classy With a Capital BOW

Obsessed would be an understatement with my new Dagne Dover bag. If you are looking for a classic, high quality bag that has a place for anything and everything to help keep you organized, look no further. Dagne Dover sells three different size bags to help keep all of your goodies organized. TheTote, their largest bag has plenty of space for your laptop, tablet, water bottle, pens, and really anything else you could try to fit in there. In my post I am carrying the Mini Tote, which is great to hold your tablet, pens, notes, sunglasses, water bottle, and so much more. I love bringing mine with me to class; it’s much cuter than carrying around a backpack. I also like how the bag comes with a long strap for days when you’re wearing a big coat. One of my favorite features of the bag is the water bottle. It is made of a water-resistant material that protects everything in your bag in case of a spill. It even snaps in so you can detach it if you don't need it or it needs to be cleaned. Dagne Dover’s smallest bag is the Tiny Tote, which is a great small bag for running around town and comes in lots of great colors. Dagne Dover was nicest enough to offer 10% off to my first 20 readers who order a bag with code “StylishSassyClassy” AND they are also donating 10% of your order to a charity of your choice, so you are shopping for a great cause!!

I love a good bow, clearly. I got this dress on clearance at Banana Republic over the weekend and then decided to put one of my older sleeveless bow tops under it. The bow tights and heels are really just the "bow" on top of the outfit, pun intended. What is one of your favorite bow pieces in your wardrobe?
