Friday's Fancies - White Christmas

I am linking up with the sweet {av} for Friday's Fancies today.

Truth: This is one of my favorite Friday's Fancies.

When I saw that this week's theme was for winter white I knew exactly what I wanted the outfit to look like and this pretty much matches exactly to what I was going for. This ALC cocktail party dress ($498) is perfect to wear to holiday party if you are looking to stand out. In keeping with the holiday theme, I wanted to add in some color and I think these Christian Louboutins ($895) are the perfect shade of red. I would love a pair of these in real life but I wouldn't have anywhere to wear them to.

For accessories, I tried to stay in the same color family as the shoes and found a Syndey Evan diamond cross bracelet ($1,760) and these Tarina Tarantino drop earrings ($55). I really thought the name of these earrings were appropriate for the occassion: Santa Claus "Visions Of Sugarplums" Drop Earrings. To finish the look I added this adorable Kate Spade Curling Ribbon Bow Headband ($75 - currently on sale for $45).

I love linking up with {av} and dreaming up these fun, festive outfits. xoxo

New Accessories

I'm so glad it's Wednesday! Just have to get though the rest of today and tomorrow and then I am off to Lake Tahoe for the weekend! I have a ton of work to do and should probably not even be blogging but I wanted to share the cute jewelry I just got from Forever 21.

I thought these earring were really cute and couldn't pass them up!

Same goes for this necklace. I mean pearls and a bow? Match made in my heaven.

I love my initials. I really want the Alex Woo Little Letter J Necklace but I don't have $798 to spend on a necklace so this one will get the job done. I mean they look very similar.

Hope you are all surviving the week. xoxo

P.S. I am a big nerd, I just now realized that the new header I made is missing the word Dots from the title and instead says Polkas! Hahah, I'll have to wait until I get home to make the change. Oops!

New Stores Offering Collegiate Clothing

Hi bloggies!

In exactly 3 weeks I will be in L.A. rooting my Trojan men onto victory!

A lot of stores are coming out with collegiate wear, mainly t-shirts and tanks but I had to share with you. First, we all know that Victoria's Secret PINK line has plenty of cute items. A few weeks, Ms. Bargain Blonde, Lindsey, shared that Kohl's has cute college wear. But did you know that American Eagle, Urban Outfitters, and Forever 21 has joined in the collegiate fashion fun? (I included samples of schools besides mine)

American Eagle has vintage inspired tees and tanks.

Urban Outfitters has a few fun vintage tops

Forever 21 has tops, hoodies, pants, shorts, and pajamas!

The stores I featured don't have a lot of schools but they do all have USC. It's probably because we're the best! Don't hate! Hahaha Just kidding!

Shoe Love

I love shoes just as much as the next girl.

I have two of these bad boys in my closet full of shoes and then I have several other pairs that won't fit floating around my closet.

My only problem is that I have wide feet. It is very difficult to find shoes so when I find a pair that fits I usually will buy in a few different colors. So imagine my excitement when I heard one of my favorite shoe brands now come in wide (and narrow) widths?

If any of you are in the market for some new Jacks or need a pair to fit your wide or narrow feet, you can get free shipping if you place an order of $100 and over. Just click on the link below!

Jack Rogers - Free Shipping with code AUGUSTFREESHIP (Min. order of $100)

They are also coming out with collegiate colored navajos which will be perfect for gamedays!
