contest these blingy beauties immediately came to mind.  And while [...]]]> http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8155-bling-it-on/feed/ 1 http://www.ravingfashionista.com/contests/8150-hpnotiq-bling-it-on-and-win/ http://www.ravingfashionista.com/contests/8150-hpnotiq-bling-it-on-and-win/#comments Tue, 11 Jun 2013 04:24:44 +0000 Raving Fashionista http://www.ravingfashionista.com/?p=8150 http://www.ravingfashionista.com/contests/8150-hpnotiq-bling-it-on-and-win/feed/ 0 http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8138-pearls-and-lace/ http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8138-pearls-and-lace/#comments Mon, 10 Jun 2013 09:00:18 +0000 Raving Fashionista http://www.ravingfashionista.com/?p=8138 I’ve had this top in my closet for quite a while now, yet this may very well be its first blog appearance.  It’s actually this peplum top, in beige, and tucked in.  I stand firmly behind my love of an all-white outfit, but there’s something to be said for the ethereal mix of slightly off-white, [...]]]> http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8138-pearls-and-lace/feed/ 3 http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8123-grab-and-go/ http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8123-grab-and-go/#comments Fri, 07 Jun 2013 09:00:08 +0000 Raving Fashionista http://www.ravingfashionista.com/?p=8123 I have a handful of maxi dresses that have been steady constants in my closet for the last few years.  They’re the pieces I know I can throw on and go during the warmer months without giving it much thought.  Yesterday proved the perfect day to pull out one of those old favorites.  It was [...]]]> http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8123-grab-and-go/feed/ 2 http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8110-sequin-weakness/ http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8110-sequin-weakness/#comments Thu, 06 Jun 2013 09:00:53 +0000 Raving Fashionista http://www.ravingfashionista.com/?p=8110 I have a weakness for sequins.  That’s not just a rhyme, it’s a fact.  When I can get my hands on a beautifully embellished piece I can’t resist.  My latest craze has been for sparkling pencil skirts (like this one or this one), so this melon hued beauty is no exception.  I love the contrast [...]]]> http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8110-sequin-weakness/feed/ 6 http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8093-backwards/ http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8093-backwards/#comments Wed, 05 Jun 2013 09:00:14 +0000 Raving Fashionista http://www.ravingfashionista.com/?p=8093 Call me crazy, but I almost prefer this dress worn backwards.  This isn’t the first time I’ve flipped something in my closet and it probably won’t be the last, but I’m definitely thinking this dress (and its green-hued twin) will get more wear now that I’ve discovered its wearable v-neck option.  Heck, even the pockets [...]]]> http://www.ravingfashionista.com/outfits/8093-backwards/feed/ 3
