Cold Caller

Today's post is inspired by my weekend, well my dog's weekend. Norman had a tough one. He's fine but he's in the cone of shame for two weeks. To honor Norm, we are looking at playful collars on tops and dresses that are perfect for summer.

Nordstrom Rack, Ruffle Twofer Dress, $69

I'm loving, loving this dress. Bow waist, pleats, stripes, and a ruffle collar.

H&M, Sleeveless Ruffled Blouse, $14

Gathered collar in a sweet blush. Also comes in a great monochrome print.

Nordstrom Rack, CAD Sleeveless Ruffle Tank, $9

Under ten bucks? Yes. Also its a sweatshirt so crazy comfy.

Ann Taylor, Pleated Collar Blouse, $69

Slightly less exaggerated than the other options but still a standup collar with some pop.

While Norman won't be wearing any of these beauties, I think a bold collar is always a great option to dress up an outfit.

Embracing Contrast

Lovebugs, have you entered the Cove Necklace giveaway yet? Go now, quick, but then come back, and read this post. It will change your life. Well, maybe not, but it's a good one.

Ok, we ready? Today we're looking at contrast collars. There are tons of collars on trend this season, peter pan collars, collar necklaces, but today, how about a spin on color. Contrast collars.

Piperlime, Collective Concepts Dot Print Ladylike Dress, $89

A simple dot with a pop of orange both on the collar and the sleeves. Perfect for booties and some simple drop earrings.

Vince Camuto, Collar Blouse, $79

Besides that fact that this model makes me want to sponsor her monthly so she will eat something, I love this deep blue. It pops against the black.

Dorothy Perkins, Cream Sequin Collar Blouse, $45

This blouse reminds me of something out of Chain Strap Purse's closet, in the best way possible.

Asos, Sugarhill Boutique Penguin Sweater, $72

A perfect playful print (yeah, what up alliteration) with 3/4 sleeves.

Contrast collars are easy the buy or layer up yourself! Add a plaid button down to your crew neck sweater.
