Dressing Up Dressing Down

Our favorite Skinny Boyfriend Jeans by Rich & Skinny paired with a Silk Tiered Blouse by 52 Weekends and a Juicy Couture Cropped Tuxedo Jacket topped off with a Jeweled Bib Necklace and Dolce Vita Beam Pumps.

Quite a mouthful, but absolutely stunning. We love the cuffing of the sleeves and the jeans. The jeans can be uncuffed to a 34” inseam and the blouse is cuffed up from a full sleeve. The contrasting colors and the jeweled necklace complete this look and take it from daytime wear to total glam.

Rich & Skinny Skinny Boyfriend Jeans – $196.00

52 Weekends Silk 3 Tier Blouse – $73.00

Juicy Couture Cropped Tuxedo – $198.00

Crystal Bib Necklace – $37.50 SOLD OUT

Double-knit ponte dress with sweetheart bodice and pleated skirt detail with hidden pockets at the side. The ponte fabric hugs your body while disguising any imperfections and the top-to-bottom gold zipper draws your eye in, simultaneously elongating and slimming your silhouette.

Fall’s Latest Must-Haves

Posted by Swank Boutique on October 22, 2009

IMG_0215

Fall Staples: our favorite Tulle Boyfriend Blazer ($63.00) cuffed to show off it’s striped lining, a Cashmere-Blend Ruched Tee by Rebecca Beeson ($56.00)and our new destroyed skinny jean by Tag+ ($182.00.)

We definitely can’t live without our blazers and we have this one in grey or in black and several other styles available in limited sizes. Pair them with a tee and jeans, a dress, or leggings and a Lauren Moshi tank for a completely polished look.

Rebecca Beeson is becoming one of our favorite designers for better-than-basics pieces you can get away with dressing up or wear casually. This cashmere-blend (yes, you read that right) tee is soooo soft and has great ruched detailing on the sleeves and is just sheer enough to layer over this season’s sequin pieces for a more subtle look.

Amanda Uprichard has done it again! This silk geo-print Boyfriend Tunic is perfection and we only have 1 left! Paired with leggings or tights, you can belt it or leave it loose depending on your mood. So simple and so classy while being completely comfortable and on-trend at the same time! Feel like layering? Pair this with a chunky sweater by Free People or a blazer by Tulle or a mini skirt by Suzanne Lay, a new local designer we just got in!

The ever-popular Love Potion tees by Wildfox Couture are back and this time they’re available in 4 different styles! We have one left of the original crew neck Love Potion No.9, as well as the same tee in a purple print in dirty white or faded black. The v-neck version (shown above) features the small Wildfox logo and the Love Potion No.9 design on the back. (note: the v-neck tees run shorter than the crew neck styles.) I’m personally loving the bright red Montara Cinched Sweater Jacket by Free People! Cinch it for a ruffled collar like Devon is wearing or leave it un-cinched and it has a swing coat-style. The thin wool fabric is perfect for those cold Fall nights coming up!

Wildfox Couture V-neck Love Potion Tee – $66.00

Free People Montara Cinched Sweater Jacket – $148.00

Blank Skinnie Classique Studded Jeans – $74.00

Dare to bare in this combo! Sequins are everywhere these days and we can’t get enough of them (or keep them in stock!) Everyone has been going crazy for these little cropped tees and tanks we keep getting in. Wear them with a high-waisted skirt (above) for a little peek-a-boo or pair them over a tank or dress for a covered, layered look. We opened the show at our latest fashion show with this look, replacing the skirt for our Free People Keyhole Strapless Slip ($48.00) in black. So easy, so fun, so versatile!

Free People Voluminous Sequin Tank – $78.00

Tag Elements Rodeo Double-Knit Pencil Skirt – $88.00

We fought them at first, but cut-outs are here to stay—at least for the season. We’re loving this slick little silk and chiffon dress. The small cut-outs at the waist and the keyhole in the back make us want to wear this out all night! The top collar is sheer black chiffon, so this dress is definitely not for the faint of heart but we say rock it! For day: pair with a black cami underneath and wear a blazer with tights!

Free People Menswear Cut-out Dress – $98.00

Our new favorite sweater is almost gone! This long-sleeved Tunic Swing Sweater by Topin is perfect just as it is, but can also be belted for a defined waist. It literally looks amazing with everything we’ve paired it with so far—wide leg pants, skinny jeans, a mini skirt, a dress. The possibilities are endless. Going sooo fast, but don’t fret! We’re going to get more in as soon as we can!

Topin Tunic Swing Sweater – $68.00

Such an easy outfit for everyday or dinner at night! This Chiffon-trim Racerback Tank by 7 for All Mankind is so soft and available in this slate grey color or in off-white and has a lace trimmed chiffon tie at the back (shown below.) It’s the perfect layering tank. Between its built-in bra and loose-fitting style, you’ll never want to take it off! Paired with our Fall staple sweater, the Topin Open Long Cardigan, you can run around town looking chic all day! This cardigan is absolutely a must-have if you don’t already own it! Available in both ivory or solid black, these pair with EVERYTHING and are great as carry-ons when you travel. Throw it in your bag and pull out as needed. It won’t wrinkle, and will look great all day and night. We also love our inexpensive skinnies by Blank denim. Clean wash and navy blue studs along the back pockets make these trendy but still a staple for our Fall wardrobe. Worn with our DV by Dolce Vita Maiya Pumps in Griggio.

7 for All Mankind Chiffon Back Racerback Tank – $88.00

Topin Long Open Shawl Cardigan – $88.00

Blank Skinnie Classique with Studs – $74.00

Introducing…Heartloom

Posted by Swank Boutique on September 4, 2009

The Dean Legging Warmer ($68.00) is our new favorite legging for this Fall! Perfect with all of the ankle and calf boots we’re getting in right now, this stretchy knit legging has a ruched cable-knit “leg warmer” attached. You know that nasty Missouri cold weather is right around the corner!

The Ashley Hooded Jacket ($198.00) features asymmetrical silver toggles, a pull-out plaid hood (yes plaid!) and is heavy enough to protect you from even the blustery of days.
The Whistler Skirt ($130.00) could not be hotter on! I’m working on getting a close-up of the details because they are really stunning and because of the ponte fabric you could wear this to work just as easily you could out at night.
