FEATURE FRIDAY // ALLISON

SIMPLE SOUTHWESTERN

While I love the boho look of layering, I also love neutral simplicity that's highlighted with a bold pattern or texture. Put tea-stained lace, distressed denim, western boots, and some southwestern prints and I'm one happy girl. I wanted to show you Bloomers how a little goes a long way in making an outfit that accents on a certain style, while still being subtle. In addition, most of these items were either thrifted or on sale proving that you can fill your wardrobe with the things you love at an affordable price! You just have to get out there and find it while spotting the potential in the item when you see it. 

So here are 5 simple outfit inspirations! :

Poncho - Orvis

Dress - Thrifted in Madrid, Spain

Boots - thrifted

Dress - Free People

Hat - RVCA

Boots - Minnetonka

Denim Jacket - Thrifted

Lace Kimono Jacket - Band of Gypsies

Boots- Thrifted Justin Roper

Top - Free People

Bolo - Thrifted

Boots - Chippewa

Denim Jacket - Thrifted

Dress- Urban Oufitters

Belt - Urban Outfitters

Boots - Ecote

Keeping accessories minimal like a belt, hat, or bolo let the details and designs of that piece shine! It keeps the attention on more subtle features as opposed to the overwhelming sense of layering. Then texture and patterns can play up with each other more instead of being hidden.

Have a great Wednesday :)!

SOME BRIGHT MORNING

I feel like I've been all over the place lately (both mentally and physically!), and in a way it feels great. The downfall is that I haven't been able to bring you guys an outfit post in a while! Amy and I are planning and working hard to not let traveling and distance come between us. 

In my travels I picked up these amazing vintage cowboy boots (probably from the 80's) for a cheap price at a flea market. I love these babies so much, and they really give me the break I need from sandals and short boots in the summer. 

I've also had one of my favorite folk hymnals stuck in my head all weekend after seeing the sunrises at my family's lake house. Here's a picture of one of the mornings there and the song! My favorite version is by Alison Krauss and Gillian Welch (they're my girls<3).
