Old Stone Church


[ dress - Joie via Hautelook, sweater - J.Crew, tights - Anna Sui, booties - Target, necklaces - J.Crew & Dana Rebecca Designs, bracelets - DIY & Leslie Danzis, earrings - Kendra Scott, sunglasses - Ray Ban ]

It was freezing cold and the day after a snow storm, but I felt like wearing some bright colors and fun patterns to brighten up this winter day. This old church, near my house, is a well known wedding photography spot and I've always wanted to know what it looked like inside... except the day I picked to explore, my hands almost froze off (hence the fists in almost every photo), my sister had to carry me through the snow, and I almost got attacked by a pigeon. ANYWAYS... I bought this dress for future trips to warm locations and the not-so-close summery months but I just don't have patience for those kinds of things. The Glitterati have been preaching their love for neons and brights however, so I "winterized" this dress with a cozy cardigan and some booties.

I got the idea for these DIY braided bracelets from the blog, Honestly WTF. They have some great DIY bracelet and other jewelry ideas!







This week only: BaubleBar is hosting their "One Year Shop" with great deals on some of their most popular pieces! Visit our facebook page to see some of the Glitterati's favorites and be sure to "like" us.

  11. That church is absolutely gorgeous! Loving these pics.

    Your dress is so bright and pretty and looks great paired with those tights. I never would have thought to put the two items together, but they totally work!
