I love a sparkle, obviously! When I saw the Ava + Vivlurex v-neck sweater @Target (on sale: $15.00) marked down 40% off, I knew I had to have one—& I knew I had to blog about it!
Not only is this a cozy & glamorous sweater, but it’s perfect for the season for shoppers who wear X-4X. Also, this is a great topper for an oversized look in black, green, cream, & burgundy. I bought the black since the green wasn’t available in stores at the time I was shopping. I can’t wait to style this with velvet leggings & embellish flats, a faux leather midi skirt & satin pumps, or skinny jeans & ankle boots.
Along with my previous posts about my cloffice & home jewelry organization, my absolute favorite piece that I’ve included hasn’t been available to shop since last year, but Target recently re-released it & it’s currently 30% off!
I have 2 from last year that are more in a taupe color, which I love because they’re so easily stackable & match the color scheme of my bedroom. They hold the most essential of my earrings collection, as seen below:

Last night’s American Music Awards ceremony had some highs and lows, especially when it came to hemlines and necklines. Today’s hottest & most successful recording artists hit the red carpet in major style & sparkle–sparkle being a major trend of this entire awards season. Aside from Taylor Swift dominating the stage with multiple wins (Artist of the Year, Favorite Music Video, Favorite Female Pop Artist, Favorite Female Country Artist, & Favorite Country Album), her golden, 70s-inspired halter jumpsuit by The Blonds was stunning, paired with metallic Giuseppe Zanotti heels, Cathy Waterman earrings, ear cuffs by Anita Ko, rings by Delfina Delettrez, & a Vram bracelet. Additionally, major fashion was served by Carrie Underwood in a shimmering Tony Ward high slit gown, Latina artist Anittain a revealing Mugler gown & Tiffany & Co. jewelry, “Unholy” singer Kim Petras donning a denim Blumarine design, Ellie Goulding in a Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini two-piece look, Kelly Rowland in an exotic & dramatic animal print gown by Nicolas Jebran, Pink in a fringed Bob Mackie creation, “Made You Look” scribe Meghan Trainor sporting shimmering pink suit by Michael Costello, pop star Sabrina Carpenter in a silver dripping Oscar de la Renta two-piece look, & “I’m Good” singer Bebe Rexha in a glamorous red Buerlangma gown that she accessorized with matching Atelier Biser gloves & knee-high boots Le Silla.

Australian beauty Margot Robbie rules every red carpet & film she stars in, creating more & more opportunities for female filmmakers as a producer & inspiring the next generation of visionaries to challenge stereotypes & break barriers. In the December 2022 / January 2023 issue of Vanity Fair, the two-time Academy Award nominated star discusses her upcoming roles in Babylon, opposite Brad Pitt, & Barbie, alongside Ryan Gosling.
The party invitations must be rolling in for the most festive time of the year! Aside from landing on a comfortable & glittery outfit to celebrate the holidays, the right accessories at the right price are key! Finding an all-purpose evening clutch isn’t always easy, especially a neutral option that would work for another special occasion, like a wedding, & for any ensemble. However, you don’t have to pick just one when a bargain comes along. For example:
I love the neutral color + metal + sparkle combination, perfect for a velvet wrap dress & satin heels, a sequin sheath dress & patent stilettos, or an embellish sweater dress & patterned tights for a holiday party or gift exchange with friends. At 70% off, investing in both is a great idea to be prepared for a more dramatic, darker look or something softer in pastels for another season.
Keke Palmer is a celebrity whom I love to watch during interviews. She’s vibrant, verbose, & aware of herself. The confidence & class the Nope star exudes continues with her latest interview & cover for The Hollywood Reporter.
Decked out in designers like Gucci, Balenciaga, Stuart Weitzman, Michael Kors, Simone Rocha, & Sophia Webster, the powerhouse performer speaks to journalist Mikey O’Connell about her relationship with fame, her dual identities as Lauren Palmer behind the scenes & Keke in the spotlight, as well as her career goals to create opportunities for marginalized individuals in Hollywood. Additionally, the shoot was photographed by Munachi Osegbu & styled impeccably by Wayman + Micah.
The stunning Illinois native entertains within the article, just like she has & continues to do on the big & small screens, with spotlight-stealing performances in Hustlers, Alice, Scream Queens, & Akeelah and the Bee. Keke can wear anything & say anything—audiences & readers alike are charmed & continue to want more from this multitalented actress, singer, & producer.
Check out the video below from The Hollywood Reporter as Keke discusses some of her major career firsts:
Sometimes, there’s fashion in unexpected places, like Aldi! I’ve definitely purchased boots, slippers, ballet flats, & socks for myself in their “fun aisle,” never paying much attention to the clothing provided since I couldn’t try it on & didn’t want to bother with returns. However, as I’ve been in the hunt for a comfortable & basic blazer recently, I was pleased to come across the Serra ponte blazer in black & tan @Aldi ($17.99, available in sizes S-XL).
While this item can only be found in stores, also rolled up in the package, I definitely recommend it if you’re looking for an affordable & easy piece to wear over a blouse, dress, or jumpsuit. I had to steam the blazer when I wanted to wear it; also, I found the sleeves were a touch long for me, wearing the XL), but I was pleased with the fit & how I styled it for a professional occasion.
I’ll likely not get the tan option, but it would be a nice option to coordinate with plaids & with rich, fall colors, like hunter green, burgundy, & rust.
Rachel McAdams has made her mark on cinema history in popular & acclaimed films, such as Mean Girls as the evil, but stylish Regina George, as Ally in the ever-romantic The Notebook, as the titular The Time Traveler’s Wife opposite Channing Tatum, in Sherlock Homes & the Marvel Cinematic Universe with her portrayal of Dr. Christina Palmer in Dr. Strange, but also in HBO’s True Detective & in her Academy Award-nominated role in 2015’s Spotlight. However, the Canadian actress’ repertoire doesn’t stop there as her red carpet history is spectacular too!
As a lover of prints, patterns, lace, feminine details, & bold silhouettes, Rachel is fearless when experimenting. Also, she’s a beauty chameleon, donning every hairstyle & color, depending on the role or mood she’s in, which also dictates how flirty, dramatic, or glamorous her overall look will be for a red carpet, press appearance, talk show stint, or when out & about donning impeccable street style. In honor of her 43rd birthday today, let’s take a stylish walk down fashion memory lane by checking out the gallery below:
Jennifer Lopez is living her happily ever after as Mrs. Ben Affleck, proving critics wrong as the multihyphenate star covers Vogue’s December 2022 issue, flaunting the strength of her physical body & mind against flowy, feminine frocks. The icon is about to embark on new music & a new film in the coming months, discussing her career highs & lows. The article is by Rob Haskell, the images are photographed by the incomparable Annie Leibowitz, & the fashion J.Lo wears is styled by Alex Harrington.
Jennifer reflects on her past projects, inspiring readers to follow their hearts with how they express themselves, along with appreciating how the challenges her family overcame helped shape her into the powerhouse she is today.
Actress Shailene Woodley has made a name for herself in Hollywood, starring in critically acclaimed films, such as The Descendants, opposite George Clooney, as Tris in Veronica Roth’s The Divergent Series film adaptation, & the romantic The Fault in Our Stars, as well as HBO’s Big Little Lies with Nicole Kidman & Reese Witherspoon. Her diverse filmography remains true to her style in that she takes risks while offering a fresh, playful, & maturity to every red carpet appearance & role. Likewise, her recent portrayal of an unhappy wife in 1965 in The Last Letter from Your Lover, on Netflix, marked a fashionable high for the actress whose cat eye makeup & bouffant hair immersed audiences into the period drama! However. today marks her 31st birthday & I’ve gathered her most memorable gowns!
This year’s Baby2Baby Gala took place in West Hollywood this weekend, not only bringing out the most stylish of stars for the red carpet, but also shining a spotlight on the organization’s charitable efforts in helping children affected by poverty. Most of the celebrities in attendance are also mothers, but served dual roles as style stars, including The Honest Company founder Jessica Alba, actresses Camilla Luddington from Grey’s Anatomy & Emma Roberts, singers Ciara & Kelly Rowland, TV personality Jeannie Mai, celebrity stylist & designer Rachel Zoe, model Alessandra Ambrosio & Miranda Kerr, along with members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, including Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, & Kris Jenner.

So a pair of high heels may not be on every Style Darling’s holiday wishlist & it’s nearly impossible to buy someone else high heels as a surprise—unless you’ve received a specific request, you know their style & size to a tee, or you’re a stylist who can read people’s style needs easily. However, for the rest of us, some high heels remain a dream & that’s fine. That’s not to say that I’ve hung up my high heel collection & passion, but we’re taking a break in the name of happy arches & comfortable days at work. With that… a little sparkle, plaid, & velvet perks my feet right up for holiday footwear!
SHOP:Liv pump in red plaid (on sale: 59.46, available in sizes 6-12), Liv pump in purple metallic (on sale: $62.96, available in sizes 6-12), & Lyla pump in teal green & purple (on sale: $55.96, available in sizes 6-12) @New York & Company. Check site & emails frequently for coupon codes!
I love the idea of pairing the plaid with a sweater dress & faux fur vest. Likewise, the metallic option can amp up a little black dress & statement necklace; whereas, the velvet styles with the blingy bow offset faux leather leggings & a tunic sweater or sheath dress & drop earrings for your next holiday gathering!
Not only is Not Okay star Zoey Deutch a natural comedic actress, but she’s also Hollywood royalty, as daughter of Back to the Future leading lady Lea Thompson, & Zoey commands the red carpet in her head-to-toe monochromatic style, bold suit ensembles, lacy little black dresses, elegant vintage looks, metallic minis, & love for bold prints! She can wear anything! I’ll be honest, I never paid much attention to Zoey’s public appearances, but upon learning of her 28th birthday today & setting out on a mission for a post today, I stand corrected! As a blonde, brunette, or redhead, Zoey is a style chameleon, exuding confidence, grace, & joy in every look. Her modern minimalism rivals her penchant for traditional Hollywood glam—I can’t decide which is better. Take a look through the color-coordinated gallery below to see all the reasons why Zoey’s style is worth celebrating!
Fa-la-la! It’s holiday time for fun festivities to begin, especially when it comes to our accessories. It’s the season for extra sparkly bling & even the most literally holiday-riffic jewels. SUGARFIX by BaubleBar @Target does it again with the following selections to brighten up the weekend, your next luncheon with the girls, or holiday gathering.
Last night’s 2022 CFDA Fashion Awards celebrated the fashion industry’s giants with bold, maximalist styles on the red carpet.
