STYLE SKINNY

Keep on Dancing...

My father loves this song, and I grew up listening to it all the time.  I love it! Even if the inner meaning is questionable, lol.  Hope it makes your morning full of fun! Keep on Dancinnnn.....(& Scroll down for a bonus!) xo-SBG

La Shoesie - Holiday Gifts for The Shoe Fiends

If you're like me, One of a Kind's are your thing.  I love speciality gifts, trinkets, and the sorts, and generally check out places like Etsy, weekly for interesting finds.  So anyway, yesterday I was talking to a friend and came to realize that she was a master at combining two of my favorite things (shoes & artwork!)to form a specialty piece that would be perfect for anyone's holiday gift giving.  

Check out La Shoesies.  The creator makes a replica of your favorite shoe (Manolo Blahnik, Jimmy Choo, Sam Edelman etc.) with the letters from your name.  These amazing personalized pieces are delivered beautifully framed, boxed, and ready to be wrapped up and gifted.  Although shoes are her speciality, she has also made pieces for baby gifts and even a few styles for the animal lovers.  Check out the photos below and if you would like to order one go HERE. If you cannot access the link, shoot me an email :) Time is running out for the November promotion...BUY ONE..GET ONE 50% off! xo-SBG

(SUPER) Late Links à la Mode

Talk about being the latest person in the entire world to repost Links à la Mode...UGH! HUGE Thank you to @_IFB for including me amongst a slew of awesome blog posts! I sincerely apologize for not reposting in a timely fashion. Although I've been an IFB member for quite a while, I'm just figuring Links à la Mode out, and I didn't realize my post had even been picked! SMH. Either way thanks a ton!!! xoxo-SBG

GETTING SPOOKY

Edited by Taylor Davies

As style bloggers, we relish the daily task of getting dressed. It’s kind of our thing, right? Once a year though, everybody gets in on the fun – and then takes it to a whole other level. Of course I’m talking about Halloween. That crazy holiday that causes adults to act like children and children to dress up like adults. As a 20-something, Halloween can be a far cry from the trick-or-treating days of our youth – but one element will always stay with me: we get to pretend to be someone else. Instead of dressing to best express who we really are, we get to dress to appear to be someone completely different.

This week’s Links a la Mode features posts from our community about amazing Halloween costumes and inspiration, DIY projects and even a little life lesson or five from The Nanny named Fran.
