Pick of the Week: Retro Cherry Peeptoes

By -
Boom-chuck-a guitar. Hornrim glasses. High ponytails. Petticoats. Poetic Licence "Sweet Shirley Temple" cherry-trimmed print wedge immediately calls to mind rockabilly fun. The summary wedge is also available in brown and pink, but the white holds the most charm. A kitschy print shoe may seem limited for styling, but I'm stuck on which outfit to pick! Black and white polka dot swing dress? Red cigarette pants with a plain white tee? Denim shorts with gingham halter? White sheath? Yellow blouse with ruffle skirt? What would you wear with this sweet peep?

A chambray romper may be nice too. Yes, I just suggested a romper.

Amazon has a bunch of Poetic License shoes on sale for an additional 20% off until Monday, just a heads up! I got Poetic Licence Women's Jeweled Expression Flat in brown for the office.

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

Sweet Sleep Bra

I've been waiting Anthropologie's ruffled bra and panty set to go on sale. What it lacks in the sex appeal of Anya's retro ensemble , it makes up for in cute ribbons and ruffles. The set is available in cream and pink , rose and black, or grey and black , but I prefer the dark of the latter to offset the sweetness of the look. The bra was $58, which is silly for a cotton, wireless sleep bra, but the price has dropped to $29.95. That's at least worth thinking about. $30 for panties , however, is still laughable.
