Dear D'Arcy

Seeing Dots…Polka dots Spring transition outfit & wardrobe Tip’s

March 13, 2017

Happy Monday Beautiful’s! Hope your weekend was great and your ready for a great new week! It’s a Beautiful day out Today in Utah and we’re starting to feel a little like Spring! YAY! If your like me your ready because we’ve had one heck of a Winter! 

I wanted to share with you a Fun Spring transition outfit and Some Tips on Why I have these items in my wardrobe! I am using some pieces from Fall (my top and shoes) with some fun New Spring Items (this super skirt & denim jacket) 

Top :Mine is Sold out find one similar here or Here, Shoes: similar here and on SALE,

Polka dot skirt from Chic Style here, Denim Jacket: here, Necklace: similar here & here I Found my Necklace at a street market in NYC (One of My favorite things to collect while on Vacation is a piece of Jewelry made by a local artist) I wanted to give you a Faux and a real option!

 

The transition from Winter to Spring can be hard! 1 because we so badly want the temps to be warmer & We want to wear the Spring/ Summer clothes but the temps don’t always allow us! 2 We don’t always have the budget to go buy all NEW clothes!  Here is a great way to solve Both! By Mixing things you already own with a new Spring item or two you can dress like its  spring but have the choice to layer up when it’s cooler! Here is how and why I choose these items for My wardrobe!

Skirt:I love the classic and playful lines of the fluted pencil Skirt! Who doesn’t love Polka dot’s? This is a great Basic & versatile piece to add to your wardrobe that you can own for years! Steal at $39.99 

Denim jacket:If you’ve been following me over the years on Facebook or My New personal instagram you know how much I swear by owning a good fitting Denim jacket! It’s a Basic staple item every lady should own! If you can afford I suggest owning a darker & regular weight and a lighter & lighter weight one! My Favorite is the Kut from the Kloth  it fit’s well, is a little tapered not to boxy and a good moderate price point.  This essential piece works with ALL most every outfit you could create! From a lace dress or Skirt to dress pants an jeans. It can tone down a outfit or edge one up! It’s a must have for Spring & Summer Chilly nights. I keep one in my car and I always travel with one. A denim Jacket travel’s well because it can be rolled up small or is a  light enough weight to wear on a chilly plane. If you don’t have one make it a priority piece on your shopping list! You’ll thank me later:) 

Faux Leather top: My top I have owned for a couple of years now and it never gets old! I suggest owning a cool Black Leather top!  Long sleeve or short it really doesn’t matter you’ll get a lot of use out of it as you can wear Year round! Tip buy one that is thin and doesn’t have to much fabric so you can wear alone or layered. Leather adds a “Cool” factor or edge but can also be”Classic” depending on what you pair it with!

Open toed Booties: Mine are Vince Camuto I purchased at Nordstrom a couple of years ago! I really feel its worth it to buy good shoes. They last a longer and are truly more comfortable. This Booty style I personally feel is a classic more then trendy plus very versatile.  Can be worn with jeans, skirts and dresses so in my eyes a good investment! The pair I linked you too are even on SALE! 

Hope you enjoyed My Spring Transition outfit and Helpful tips!

Enjoy your week! OX D’Arcy

Way to Wear Wednesday! Tulle at any age!

March 8, 2017

Tulle at any age! Yes pretty party girl tulle isn’t just for 5 year old’s! Yet… Every girl wants to feel five again in this perfect twirling, Happy and Playful fabric! It can be romantic, playful and brings you back to your childhood.  It’s used for prom & wedding gowns! Today its a BIG trend in everyday wear! You really can wear it at any age depending on how you style it!

Here’s some tricks that I think help to wear this fun trend without trying to look 5 or…15 ox

Tulle is a romantic fabric that make for pretty skirt’s and dress not just for party season. You can WEAR it like I have shown above in a dress form. This dress is easy to wear with its Jersey striped tee attached;) The tulle isn’t to puffy which helps to not look so youthful. I paired it with a denim jacket to dress it down even more. added a wedge (old) and some fun Jewelry. (Statement earrings are a big Spring trend) These would be cute as mine are sold out!

More ways to wear….

-White or Denim Button up Skirt tucked in

 -Converse tennis shoes and a Tight Tank top

-Don’t get to big of tulle if your over 40

-Leather jacket

-over sized cable knit sweater

I hope I have inspired you to try tulle again! FEEL 5 but look your age! OX D’Arcy

Tip Day Tuesday

Talking Lip scrub Today!

A beauty bag’s Must have, Lip scrub…Elf, InSPArations,
Benefit

Lip color by Chanel #54 Rouge coco shine

Hello pretty ladies! Today I want to share with you the importance of lip scrub. Lip exfoliation makes your lips more moist and retain its moisture longer; helping to prevent cracked lips. Winter weather can play Havoc on your lips and skin. If you’ll scrub your lips regularly, you’ll never have to worry about getting chapped lips. *Apply Moisturizer to lips after a scrub.

  Here are some of the lip scrubs I have been trying out! ( I want you to note this is just my personal opinion!)  

e.l.f= This lip exfoliator goes on like a lipstick, it’s affordable and smells good. It works ok if you have pretty smooth lips! If your lips are flaky or peeling it wouldn’t do the trick.

Benefit= Buffing lip beads/ exfoliant. This goes on like a cream and you buff gently. Doesn’t really have a smell and does wonders for your lips, specially if chapped or flaky! The tube last a long time.

inSPArations= Get lippy-lip scrub is a stick, I purchased in the Vanilla butter cream and smells delish! It works more like a sugar scrub and is ok for daily use. I don’t think it would help cracked lips. Is affordable but goes quick!

Living in Utah it’s super dry and using a lip Scrub has really helped to keep my lips kissable! 

Note : I tried this DIY from pintrest and it work just as good as any store bought!

Hope you Have kissable lips! OX D’Arcy

March 4, 2017

Happy Saturday!  

Good morning! Today I am sharing with you Series 2 of my 15 Spring Trends! If your just starting to read, Last week I introduced 15 top Spring trends and I am breaking them down every Saturday in the Month of March.  Today I am featuring the Floral/Romantic prints, a touch of the Boyfriend jean and the Off the shoulder top! 

Here we have My personal Favorite brand of jeans Kut from the Kloths Catherine boyfriend which has been a Big spring trend for a couple of years and I love it! Easy to wear, goes with every shoe from flip flops, sneakers,and high heel’s!  Talking about shoe’s these cuties Are by Just Fab and hit the floral trend Perfect! (Similar ones here just fab  )

The Off the shoulder Trend is one of my favorite trends and I am always happy when it makes its way back into the scene! The bow detail of the chambray cutie just makes this top!    Booties by Steve Madden, Bag by Louis Vuitton, Jeans, Top at Chic Style, Glasses 

 

Touching again on the floral/Romantic print… This sheer top is perfect for Spring with its pretty pattern, fun colors and romantic details it works great with skinny jeans!

Friday Date Night Shoe’s

March 3, 2017

 

Here’s a peak at some of My Favorite’s! 

Vintage wood heart is made by my cute friend over at @Olivewooddesigns on instagram and etsy!  Shoes you can clearly see brand in each pair’s photo shopping similar or same under photo!

Animal print

classic black pump

black pump gold cap

Two toned pump

studded heal

Strap bootie

Fringe wrap heel

leopard open toe

It’s no secret That I love shoe’s! Who doesn’t love a pretty high heel? Well … some of you love a high heel you just don’t wear them or buy them! Why not I ask? To tall? Can’t walk in them? Hurt your feet? Why do I say “Friday date night?” Like that’s the only time you can wear a high heel!

Well I have answer’s for ALL of the above…

To tall? I am 5’9 1/2 and my hubby is only 6ft so a lot of the time I am taller specially if I fall in love with too high of a heel! Tip buy ones that are a lower heel or a kitten heel.

Can’t walk in them? I can thank my Beauty pageants & modeling day’s for this, but Yes it takes practice and YES you need to walk confident and proud in heels so Please if you can’t…just practice with them on while at home doing chores and I promise you’ll get the hang of it!  Tip: wedges are an easy high heel to walk in! Go with a lower heel.  Also A open toe is harder to walk in so for you Not confident ones, wear close toed heels…(your toes won’t slide to the front and try to grab your shoe as your walking!)

Hurt your feet? Well that’s why I stated Friday night Date shoes! You can wear pretty heeled shoes that you don’t have to stand to long in and your not in them ALL day! Tip: You can purchase clear gel toe & heel pads and fab rub on stick that help keep your feet out of pain. My picks are here:

Fab feet= bliss stick, clear shoes pads and clear toe gel pads 

Friday Date night shoe’s?… I explained a little above,  plus I really like a good excuse to buy pretty shoes that I don’t wear on a daily basis but really want to own them! I LOVE pretty Shoes!  On a Serious note… My hubby and I always felt its important to have time together, making a once a week date night is important to us! I love to get dressed up & look good for him (and myself)even if it is only dinner and I am going to wear jeans….You can always wear a great pair of heels that makes the outfit! NOW go buy those shoes!!!

Have a wonderful Date night, OX D’Arcy

What I am actually wearing this Spring…. Living in What I am actually wearing this Spring…. Living in Utah as a over 50 Wife, Mom, COCO and content Creator💋

Utah Weather in the Spring 🌱
Calls for layers….

Spring weather here can be “Schizophrenic” from a blizzard  To sunny and 60 in a day!

Although we’ve had an unusually strange winter this year, Spring still calls for layers.

Bundling up for the morning, and being able to take pieces off throughout the day, makes a great tip for Utah Springs.

I like classic pieces, in light colors and weights, yet work when layered to keep you warm.

Pieces you can mix and match, great wardrobe builders and add some texture.

- lighter weight & color long Wool coat , looks chic over shoulders, yet not to hot when on (I have a rain coat too) 

-Classic trousers are still trending and a great option to look more polished, shades of cream, tan and camel are great for Spring (works well with pastels too)

- Light weight, thinner ribbed mock neck turtleneck. I love the feel and fit of these. Affordable too.

- Vest are a great Spring layer, and the large Plaid/check in neutral shades keeps in classic and add interest. Yet, light enough for spring for layering and not sweat to death 😂
(I love linen vests too) 

- Adding texture with a fluffy & light fur on one shoulder (well still be seeing fur details for Spring)  Draped on one shoulder does add heat, like wearing around your neck does.

- Classic jewelry in gold & silver mix… and yes, I layered and stacked it on… classic pieces & yet layered gives your look a little edge. 

- Western suede pointed toe booties, elongate the leg, add more texture and keep your feet warmer but not too warm. 

Do you need layers in the Spring where you live?

❤️Follow for more Spring layer Outfits…. I have several style, color and on trend. While classic looks coming your way….

This Chapter…. My Melanoma Cancer Journey Shari This Chapter…. 
My Melanoma Cancer Journey 

Sharing my journey this far…Today, is 3 week post surgery.
 
Being told you have cancer is a roller coaster of emotions…
This is a journey none of us think you’re going to head down.

You can choose so many different paths to let your brain and emotions go…

I choose to give it to God, and to ask for your prayers, along with following my heart.

I knew I needed to stay positive and trust the process.
(Did I have scary thoughts and some tears, YES, Yes I did) 
But, honesty it wasn’t long. 

Once I gave it over, and trusted him and the process, along with asking for your prayers. 

I was at complete peace. Thank you for all my prayer warriors, I know I got the results I did because of you and your prayers. 

I’ve been told, I am strong, a warrior and so brave for sharing my journey. 
Honestly, I truly don’t feel that way at all, I fell like it’s a process to share, to help others and to help it not feel as scary! 

I didn’t know what to expect,  didn’t know what having my face cut up, or knowing what any of the processes or procedures were (I would have loved to have known…)

If I was going through this and these emotions, so were others. 

My hope in sharing  the journey, would help others to know the importance of getting your skin checked. 
In knowing the processes, and knowing we can do scary things, and we can get through them.

They say it takes a village to raise kids, but it also takes a village & prayers to get through life.🙏🏻

Thank you for all your support, love, prayers, DMs and messages of support.
I couldn’t have done it without all of you🙏🏻

Tomorrow is my first laser🙏🏻💪🏻
I’ll share who that goes in stories tomorrow 😉
