Happy Monday!
So today's blog post is a collaborations with some of my Blogger friends, I know you missed them, it's been awhile since we've done one. You can look over a few of our past collaborations (here, here, here) and were coming together again for today's post. Today we are bringing you the Sunset Stroll Bellini from Kiyonna.com and were styling it 4 different ways. Since we all have different styles it's so fun to see the outfits we come up with.
So since St. Patrick's day is coming up we thought why not do something for it and this Promise Green Bellini from Kiyonna's was just a perfect green item for all of us to style. A great thing about this Bellini is that the sales of this promise green Bellini directly benefit Sandy Hook Promise, which is a non-profit organization that was founded by several family members whose loved ones were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012. Sandy Hook Promise educates and empower parents, schools and community organizations on how to prevent gun violence before it happens.
So I actually I wanted to wear the cardigan in a dressier way and I decided to wear it with a body con dress. I have a few cardigans and jackets that I sometimes get stuck on how to wear them and the answer is usually to wear it with something neutral. I knew my black dress was a great neutral item that I could wear and really make the green stand out.
To tie everything together I thought I would use some gold accessories. I was originally going to dress this down with a scarf and some plain boots but I felt like dressing up the outfit was a better choice. But it just goes to show that this cardigan is so versatile because you can dress it up or dress it down.

So can I tell you ever since I got these boots, they have been my go to item to add a little something extra to my outfits. I used to be scared of animal print but it's such a neutral print that it really does go with lots of things. I actually bought a new pair of animal print flats that you will probably see on here soon because I already know they will be my go to for spring, so I'm letting you know ahead of time.
Since this is suppose to be a post for St. Patrick's day, what plans do you have for the holiday? For me it's actually the anniversary of my blog but I'm going to a friends birthday dinner and I'm most likely going to wear this sweater because I don't have much green in my closet.
Thanks for reading, have a great day, and don't forget to check out the other ladies and see how they styled their Green Bellini!

I love this look, Nina! I usually style my bellinis very casually, so I love seeing a dressier, funkier version. Your accessories give the look a great edge, which I feel shows how versatile the bellini can really be. Also, this is the perfect shade of green. We all have different skintones and hair colors, but I feel like this shade of green looks so great on all of us.
ReplyDeleteThanks Hailey and I agree the color really does look great on all of us!
DeleteI agree with Hailey that this shade of green works beautifully on all of us. It really pops against your complexion and dark hair. And I like that you went with a sleek, glamorous outfit. The black and gold really allow the green to sing. This would be a great going out look. You picked such cool, fun accessories to finish this look, and I still want those booties! lol

Thanks Liz and yes this color bellini looks great on all of us and I love how we all styled it differently.
DeleteI really love the way that you styled this cardigan - I love black with gold, and that shade of green not only looks great on you, but it works so well with the black and gold. The leopard booties are a great touch!! Love!!
