Tuckernuck and tortoise, say that five times fast!

Tuckernuck embodies so much of what I love. It’s classic style with an element of freshness and it was started by women that were empowered to create what they wanted from a clothing and lifestyle brand that did not yet exist. Haven’t found what you want? Create it! Yes to this all.day.long!

I am of course partial to classic style – polka dots, stripes, tortoise, camel, navy, ivory, white, chambray, denim, and a generally preppy and/or nautical look (so this brand is a natural fit for me) but what I love is that it so gracefully incorporates a modern twist on these wardrobe staples that can be worn for years to come, as well as mixed and matched without hesitation.

Off The Shoulder

Starting us out with the perfect date night or girls night out top is this Off the Shoulder Marguerite Blouse which is available in six patterns/colors. Navy and white polka dots is a classic choice that will never go out of style and can be worn with jeans, white pants/jeans, and more. This shirt is perfect for when the weather or evenings are a little cooler but still warm from the sun.

The sleeves provide coverage while with an elastic wrist and ruffle that matches the neckline. The fit is loose and can be worn out, fully tucked in, or the new french tuck classic we see so much now (which I fully embrace with open arms!). The shirt runs true to size and the classic navy color invites you to wear it in all seasons.

A Tale of Two Tortoise Accessories

Tortoise is an ideal accessory because not only does it look classic and chic, but it goes with everything! I can’t think of a single color that it does not compliment. It is one of the designs that can be easily switched between navy, brown, and black as well as brighter colors like pink, yellow, or green. Definitely a classic to keep in your closet for years to come!

There are lots of tortoise earrings around the internet these days, but these Tortoise Double Link Earrings are unique in their two ring design that makes a dramatic yet classic statement.

I have received more compliments than I can count on this Tortoise Clutch, it is absolutely a new classic in my closet. It goes with so much as a neutral (I consider tortoise and leopard neutrals) and it will definitely be in hand for a date night, girls night, and event night out for the long term. There is just enough room for my phone, keys, and a magic wallet with the essentials.

Tuckernuck also offers this clutch in other colors that are equally as lovely, such as gingham, two toned, and parrot.

New Shoes on the Way

This past weekend, I just ordered these Pink Baton Heels and I am on the edge of my seat waiting for them to arrive. Pink and red combinations are some of my favorite (in addition to blue and green) and I am looking forward to styling them and sharing ideas with you for both the office and casual outfits.
