This two piece cut out sponsored by DressLily.com is my version of Fall Floral. Ha ha! I know its laughable but Fall in Texas is still 80+ degrees. This floral design does have richer tones with a hint of deep orange. These colors definitely make this look more “Fall appropriate”. Of course, to make it feel more like Fall I layered a fuzzy collared denim jacket on top and my Coach Preston booties on bottom. Now, if it would only cool down just a bit more. Enjoy!
Jacket- Thrifted 🙂
If you have the right pieces in your wardrobe going from day to night could just be a matter of adjusting your shirt. I can wear this boyfriend fit tee, wide leg pant, charm envy collar necklace and nail bracelet (perfect for a DIY’er like me) with black sandals to work. I could wear this same EXACT outfit, and makeup out later in the evening with out adding or taking anything away.
If I want to take it to a more evening look all I need to do is tie a front knot in my shirt. Thats it!!!!
Lets talk about why this works. First off the colors are neutral giving it a classic look. When my boyfriend tee is out my waist disappears making this look super casual. By tying the shirt in a front knot, it makes my waist suddenly appear. This contrasting with the high waisted wide leg pant gives me an instant hourglass figure. Lastly, I’m completely covered with the exception of the tiniest sliver of midriff which make it a bit sensual for night. To top it off, it’s all stretchy and comfortable! Win!
I’d love to see a picture or a comment of your best “day to night” look. Keep me posted and enjoy!

The Shelby Rose Collection began with a mom of two looking at her makeup pouch and wishing it was something that she loved. Shelby loves dance and over 26 years she has led, choreographed and performed countless times with the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets dance team. Even today as an elementary school teacher in Houston, Texas Shelby hosts a dance club for the students that she teaches physical education to.
Only close friends and family knew of another talent that Shelby would soon explore again. Shelby’s grandmother, Rose Marion Pullum was born in 1905 and gave Shelby the first sewing machine she ever owned. Rose taught her how to sew and creating and crafting has been apart of Shelby’s life ever since. At a friends request, Shelby sewed a few throw pillows and it was then that she realized that if she made her own makeup pouch, should would love it much more the the ones she currently owned. Shelby dusted off her sewing machine and explored her creativity in new ways.
Shelby went out and got fabrics that she loved for the pouches that she planned to make. While shopping for fabric she realized that she didn’t love her pouches because the INSIDE was boring! She resolved to fix that problem by using playful sophisticated prints on the outside and eclectic linings on the inside. It was then, that The Shelby Rose Collection was born.
Her handmade pouches come in 3 different sizes and are customizable. They can be used as a pouch as well as a clutch when you’re going out. You can check out The Shelby Rose Collection on:
