Spencer, as most of you know, comes from old money. When styling her outfits she usually will take vintage pieces that have probably been in the family for decades and alter them by pairing them with more modern items. In the show, her character is a big fan of cuffed skinny jeans or pants! Being a part of the Hastings Family, she gets alot of use out of button up blouses. The Striped Linen Blazer pictured above is a perfect representation of Spencer's Style. Her outfit would probably be mixing the denim button up with the Striped blazer over top, the sleeves would be rolled up of course! All topped with a belt around the waist! Spencer keeps her shoes pretty simple! We usually will see her in a pair of riding boots, especially if it is in the fall and winter! But most of all, Spencer can't be seen without an amazing pair of Oxfords, such as these beautiful Asos Maddison Pretty Tie Brogues. They are fab! But if she is going for a more neutral look, she usually brings out a pair of plain brown oxford lace ups! For jewelry, Spencer likes to keep it simple. A trend I have seen for watches is the "boyfriend watch" look. She likes larger watches that are simple and not so busy! This Kate Spade Gramercy Watch is right on point with something that would be found in Spencer jewelry Collection! Now for my favorite topic, beauty! Spencer has natural beauty which means she doesn't need to over do it with the makeup. A light foundation such as the Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation, a touch of blush, and some mascara will do it! For perfume, you better believe she will be wearing a sophisticated light scent. Spencer is the type of girl to find one perfect perfume and stick with it! I believe White Musk by Alyssa Ashley is the perfect scent for her! It contains refined Jasmine, precious Rose, sophisticated Lily of The Valley and romantic Violet. A classy combination for a classy girl! A spritz (or five!) of this scent will leave you feeling like you have just walked out of the country club! 1.

There is a big difference between men and women when it comes to gifts. You ask a women what she wants and we rattle off a million things. Then go ask a man and what do you get? Nothing. A simple "i don't care" or "i don't know". I am here to break a man's mind down to see what they really want. After asking some of my close guy friends, I found out "simple but a statement" is what they really want. You look in a girl's sunglasses collection and there are all different styles, sizes, and colors. When you look in a man's collection, it is one simple pair. Keep this in mind when shopping for the man in your life, pick something he will use until it is falling apart! You can also take this time to use your fashion sense to persuade him into trying new things! When men shop, they buy what they know. Get him to try something he normally won't. Hopefully by creating this gift guide for all my girls out there, shopping for him can be a little bit more fun and a lot less stressful! Accessories Most times when you think of accessories you think of women's handbags, jewelry and sunglasses. But men can have accessories too! Great additions like these to a man's outfit can completely change the way he looks and pull the outfit together. One of my favorite pieces that men have been starting to carry over the past few years are leather duffle bags like this Libson Italian Leather Duffle. This would be great for a man who loves to travel. Cologne Believe it or not, men care about smelling good just as much as women, if not more! I don't think we have a problem with that though! One of my favorites is Desire by Alfred Dunhill. It has a very romantic scent with notes of fruits and woods with low notes of musk and vanilla. It is the perfect scent for date night! I would give it to him right before you go out for dinner so he can try it out! Shoes For shoes, pick a pair that can be dressed up and dressed down. He will then have more opportunities to wear them. For that same reason, also try and stick with a neutral color that will pair well with any outfit! These All Saints Leather boots are my favorite men's boots! They look great whether they are worn with jeans or pants that are a bit dressier. They are rustic and vintage looking. Love them! Apparel Girls, this is your time to get your man to try something new and stylish! One of the trends I am so ready for all guys to get rid of are baggy below the knee shorts! I can't even explain how horrible they look! Pick out a pair of fitted shorts that lay just above the knee, he will thank you once he see's how much cleaner and polished he looks. Please help put an end to those awful baggy shorts for everyone's sake! 1. Libson Italian Leather Duffle Bag, $345.00 2.

It is a monthly subscription service that sends a box with five to seven beauty samples right to your door! Many girls refer to it as a little surprise present each month you get to unwrap and find out what goodies you get! Now though the two above boxes may look quite similar they are actually vastly different! So today, these two beauty boxes will battle it out to see who will be crowned the Beauty Box Queen! At the bottom I will have a little poll so feel free to click on which box you believe is the best! Which side are you on Birchbox? or Glossybox? One Love. |
