All About That {{Lace}}

Hi Nobella Grace Mermaids!

So happy to be back once again on the Nobella Grace blog!

If y'all follow me on Instagram, I'm sure you already know how {{lace obsessed}} I am! I mean my ENTIRE last order from NBG was filled with lace on lace on lace. I can't get enough of it! Here is a peek into my current wardrobe and how I style all things {{lace}}! Enjoy!

Bianca Tunic Dress- ((SHOP HERE))

Paired with black leggings, grey boots, and grey cardigan.

This outfit is tried and true...and preschool approved! I actually just wore this outfit to school today! All of the kiddos LOVED the lace, especially the little ones :)

I love the nautical feel of this tunic and how easily it pairs with leggings (which I consider pants ;))

Add a cardigan and boots to make it "work appropriate"!

Hadley Top

Paired with Denim Skinnies, nude flats, and Jewel Tone Bangles from Metal Marvels

This top features not only lace, but a Spring 2015 color trend: classic blue! I'm not normally a "blue" person, but I was so drawn to this top. I love the slight hi low hem and how fabulously it pairs with denim skinnies and my new favorite flats! 

Peaches and Lace Top- ((SHOP HERE))

Also available in Curvy- ((SHOP HERE))

Paired with Denim Skinnies, nude flats, and Jewel Tone Bangles from Metal Marvels

I LOVE the color peach and the lace detailing on this top! It has 3/4 sleeves which makes it perfect to transition into spring! It is available in contemporary AND curvy sizes, which is a huge PLUS!! Add your favorite denim and flats to complete this look!

{{My Favorite Denim}}

Hi Nobella Grace Dolls!

I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and are gearing up for a fun new year!

I'm excited to be back with you all and sharing my FAVORITE denim of 2014!

These jeans are so OUT OF THIS WORLD awesome that they will be accompanying me into 2015 as well!

Since we all know I'm a shopaholic, it goes without saying that I am also ADDICTED to fabulous denim.

I have tried EVERY premium denim out there and NONE compare to the amazing Destroyed Denim Jeans offered by Nobella Grace.

I always thought that the more expensive jeans were, the better the quality.

I would spend $100-$200 on jeans. It was insane!

These jeans are actually BETTER quality than what I was wearing and at ONLY $42, they are a STEAL!

Not only do they have a GREAT price, but they fit wonderfully.

Great stretch, perfect length, tasteful destroyed look, and versatile in terms of how to style them!

Check out my FAVORITE ways to wear these beauties (PS I may wear them multiple times a week...don't judge ;))

Casual + Cute

This look is PERFECT for a day out and about when you want to look pulled together, but laid back at the same time! Grab the amazing destroyed denim jeans, add a screen tee, a comfy hoodie, and some boots. Very easy, but a fun twist on a classic look! You will look super cute and comfy while tackling all your errands on that to-do list!

Dinner Date

These jeans can honestly transition from day to night without a problem. Need a fun dinner date outfit? Here you go! Take your destroyed denim jeans, add a military inspired jacket ((SIMILAR HERE)) + ((HERE)) with a plain tee underneath ((SIMILAR HERE)). Throw on your favorite booties to add some height and sassiness to your look. You will be ready to jet and enjoy your evening!

Party Hardy

So you are invited to a fun party and don't want to show up too under or over dressed. Need a solution? Grab the destroyed denim and add a vest to create a super chic look. I'm ALL about vests this season! Here's a great option for you to try ((SHOP HERE)). Pair it with a striped tunic to add a pattern and more dimension to your look ((OPTION HERE)). I added my favorite peep toe mules to stylize this outfit, but any pair of awesome heels will do! 

You will be the princess of the party while looking super hot too!

{{Sweater Weather}}

Hi Mermaids! 

The temperatures are dropping and the sweaters are finally being pulled out of the closet. It's time to start dressing for the cooler weather! A sweater is the perfect answer, but just because you are wearing a sweater, doesn't mean you can't look super chic and pulled together at the same time. What is YOUR favorite type of sweater? Sweater Dress? Sweater Cardigan? Cowl Neck Sweater? Whatever you choose, here are some of my favorite ways to rock a sweater!

Ollie Dress ((SHOP HERE))

The Ollie Dress is a gorgeous sweater dress! A colorful knit fabric, that has a fun Aztec print and great fit. It has tons of stretch to provide the perfect fit to your particular shape. Add black booties in the fall and add tights or leggings as the season progresses. A black cardigan or even a scarf would also be super cute if you need an extra layer! I paired the colorful Jewel Tone Bracelets as my main accessory to match the colors in this dress. They are the perfect addition!

Harlow Cardi

Denim Skinnies ((SHOP HERE))

The Harlow Cardigan is perfect for the upcoming holiday season! I love the traces of red and the plaid pattern is divine! It is an easy cardigan to accessorize and it even has pockets! I paired this cardi with the fabulous Denim Skinnies, a basic black tank, and black flats. I imagine myself recreating this look a lot over the coming months! It's a classic for sure!

Tribal Cowl Neck Sweater

Denim Skinnies ((SHOP HERE))

If you are looking for a throw on and go sweater, this is it! The button detail with the Aztec sleeves are so fun! It is a longer length, so you can wear it with denim jeans or even leggings! It is super soft and cozy! It is sure to keep you warm! Add boots and you are ready to go! So easy and so cute!

Which {{Sweater}} do YOU plan on wearing this season? Leave me a comment and let me know!

Until Next Time

{{How to Wear a Denim Dress}}

Hi NBG Mermaids! I don't know about you all, but I am IN LOVE with denim for fall and winter. Whether it be a chambray top, a jean jacket, or a fabulous denim tunic dress like the one Nobella Grace carries, denim MUST be in your closet for the upcoming months. Here are a few of my favorite ways to style a denim dress. Feel free to use these ideas or create your own and share them below in the comments section. I LOVE hearing from YOU!

Simple and Chic

Denim Tunic Dress

Black Leggings ((SHOP HERE))

This denim dress from NBG is cute all on it's own, so here's an easy peasy way to be out the door in 5 minutes! Throw on your favorite Denim Tunic Dress and add a braided cognac belt to cinch the waistline. Then put on black leggings, cognac knee high boots, and the Jewel Tones in blue! You are set and ready to go! Easy enough right?

Prim and Proper

Denim Tunic Dress

Molly Knit Cardigan in Blue ((SHOP HERE))

Black Leggings ((SHOP HERE))

This look is just an extension of the previous look! Follow all of the steps above, but add the Molly Knit Cardigan in Blue. I undid the buttons on the sleeves of the tunic dress and rolled the cuff up over the cardigan to create a look that's perfect for running errands or a day date with friends!

Dressed to Impress

Denim Tunic Dress

Jet Faux Fur Vest

Looking for a fun date night outfit? This one fits the bill! It will have you turning heads all evening! Take the Denim Tunic Dress (unbelted) and the Jet Faux Fur Vest. Then add your favorite scarf and suede booties! Last, finish off the look with the Beach Bangle Set! A neutral and classic look, but unique at the same time!

{{Comfy + Cozy}}

Hi Nobella Grace Mermaids! Temperatures are finally dropping here in Arizona and I can't wait to bundle up in some comfy clothes! Here are my favorite Nobella Grace Comfy + Cozy looks that I will be rocking all through fall and winter!

Not Your Average Top in Royal ((SHOP HERE))

Fair Isle Leggings in Royal Blue ((SHOP HERE))

I seriously love this outfit! The top is long enough to wear with leggings and it's a gorgeous royal blue hue! The leggings are super soft, high waisted, and a fabulous knit material. The pattern is fun and very Nordic. Perfect for the upcoming season!! Rock this outfit with combat boots like I did or pair with some black flats. Either way, you will be ready to cozy up with your favorite book, but you will be looking super chic while you do it!

Gold Coast Oversized Hoodie in Charcoal ((SHOP PINK HERE))

Destroyed Denim Jeans ((SHOP HERE))

If you don't have a throw on and go hoodie, this one NEEDS to be in your closet! I love the length! It can be worn with leggings or jeans. These destroyed denim jeans are my favorite jeans EVER and that says a lot because I have TONS of jeans. They are soft and stretchy, not restricting like most jeans can be. They pair so well with this hoodie and even though charcoal is sold out, pink is still available! This outfit is perfect for errands or just a chill hang out day! Throw on your comfy shoes and you are ready to go!

Nobella Grace Tank ((SHOP HERE))

Rae Cardi- Currently Sold Out ((SHOP OUTERWEAR HERE))

Denim Skinnies ((SHOP HERE))

This tank is so much fun to wear! It's super soft, has the cutest message, and I love navy and pink paired together. It also happens to go perfectly with the Rae Cardi, which is colorful and a beautiful length. Even though this particular cardi is sold out, check out the Outerwear section on Nobella Grace's website. So many beautiful cardis that will go perfectly with any graphic tee! To finish this look, I grabbed my denim skinnies that literally go with everything! I also threw on my comfy cognac studded flats to complete the look. This outfit is perfect for a day out and about or an evening in. You will stay warm, but look super cute too!

NBG + MM = Perfection

Happy Tuesday Nobella Grace Mermaids! I'm so excited to feature my two FAVORITE shops in one post today! As many of you know, Nobella Grace and Metal Marvels go together like peas and carrots...peanut butter and jelly...Romy and Michele...the list goes on and on! Nobella Grace offers fabulous clothing and Metal Marvels helps you accessorize Nobella Grace's wonderful pieces with beautiful and budget friendly jewelry! Any time I reach for a Nobella Grace piece to wear, I know that I will be able to find the perfect Metal Marvels accessory to accompany it! 

Paris Pocket Tee

Destroyed Denim Jeans ((SHOP HERE))

Hollow Clover Pendant ((SHOP HERE))

Clover Wire Bangle in Silver/Turquoise ((SHOP HERE))

Born to be Famous Bracelet ((SHOP HERE))

The Paris Pocket Tee with the Destroyed Denim Jeans are a match made in heaven! They are both super soft and high quality pieces that you will want to wear over and over again! I added some fun motorcycle boots to create an edgy, laid back look! I love the Clover Collection from Metal Marvels...two of my favorite pieces from that collection are the Hollow Clover Pendant and the Clover Wire Bangle. They look fabulous paired with the Born to be Famous Bracelet. A versatile bracelet that will match with so much!

Drew Dress ((SHOP HERE))

Jewel Tone Bangles in Light Blue, Pink, and Aqua ((SHOP HERE))

The Drew Dress has the most GORGEOUS beading and embroidery on the neckline. The cinched waist creates a beautiful hour glass shape and I love the modest hemline. Since the neckline is so intricate, I skipped the necklace and added fun Jewel Tone Bangles instead. I wanted to bring out the colors of the dress, so I chose light blue, pink, and aqua! Black flats helped finish off the look! This styled look is so easy breezy, but super chic as well!

Lace and Grace Sweater in Grey ((SHOP IVORY HERE))

Denim Skinnies ((SHOP HERE))

Beaded Bib Necklace in Turquoise ((SHOP HERE))

The Lace and Grace Sweater in Grey was SO popular, it sold out in the first day! Don't worry though, Ivory is still available! If you don't have this sweater yet, you need it! It is so soft and even more gorgeous in person! I love the lacy layers and frills on the bottom. The high waisted denim skinnies from NBG are the perfect bottoms to accompany this sweater. I wanted to add a pop of color, so I accessorized with the Beaded Bib Necklace in Turquoise. Talk about a jaw dropper...this necklace looks SUPER expensive, but with the price tag of only $21, it won't break the bank! I wear it often! Grey riding boots completed the look! This outfit will have you ready for some cooler weather!

Rachel Cardi ((SHOP HERE))

Denim Skinnies ((SHOP HERE))

Fluid Beauty Headband in Peach ((SHOP HERE))

Wire Wrapped Necklace in Peach ((SHOP HERE))

Last, but certainly NOT least, the Rachel Cardi...ahhhhh, this cardi is pure awesomeness. The tones of grey with the POP of neon coral makes it out of this world! I added my favorite denim skinnies and some grey riding boots. I wanted to bring out the coral/peach color in the cardi, so I accessorized with the Fluid Beauty Headband in Peach and the Wire Wrapped Necklace also in Peach. This headband is beyond cool! It is velvet lined and doesn't slip! Now let's discuss the necklace, gorgeous quality and such a pretty color! It also comes in turquoise and mint!

Well ladies, I could go on all day with the looks I have created with Nobella Grace and Metal Marvels pieces, but I want to hear from YOU! What fabulous {{Peas + Carrots}} looks have YOU worn? I would LOVE to hear all about them! Leave a comment below!

Until Next Time
