Studio 15

Happy Monday, darlings! I’m excited to share another collaboration with you! I’ve recently teamed up with Studio 15 which was founded by Jia Wertz after a trip to Gulu, Uganda to volunteer in helping local women develop sustainable businesses. The inexhaustible spirit and daring of the women she met inspired Jia to pursue her dream and combine her two passions: Fashion and philanthropy.

I couldn’t have been more thrilled when the team at Studio 15 asked me if I was interested to collaborate with them. I strongly agree with them that modern, fashion forward pieces should be reasonably priced without compromising quality or style. Overall, my blog What Would V Wear stands for fashion that anybody can attain without breaking your bank. I want my fashion to be accessible to everyone, and I mean that. Fashion should be fun which is why why you always see me smile too. I simply don’t take fashion too serious. Anyhow, please, visit Studio 15 HERE and have fun shopping!

PS: A portion of each sale goes out to support women entrepreneurs in developing countries through a partnership with Kleos Microfinance.

As always, thanks so much for reading & a BIG THANK YOU to Studio 15 for gifting me with the Black Luster Pencil Dress.

Knee High Boots

Rock your boots this winter, darlings! It has gotten really cold in Chicago which really gave me no choice but to pull my boots out of my closet! I love wearing boots to keep my feet warm, and when paired properly – create a stylish ensemble too. Whether you prefer short boots, medium height, or above-the-knee styles, I simply think that you cannot go wrong by owing a fabulous pair yourself! They increase the versatility of your clothes to the next level, don’t you agree?

Faux Leather Skirt

My faux leather skirt has become an imperative part in my closet. I simply cannot resist an article of clothing that is both universally appealing (they’re tough, sexy, and feminine all at the same time) and endlessly versatile. It is definitely a buy-worthy item for sure, and, thanks to a myriad of silhouettes and gorgeous fall colors, I have officially rendered a fresh choice for fall!

But let’s talk about the ‘Superstar Chic Fashion Planner‘ by Ariana Pierce for a minute. I received this planner from her, and I am completely smitten!

Seriously, this planner is major! Check it out here, and learn more about the beautiful Ariana here.

Polka Dots & Ripped Jeans

Happy Monday! Glad you stopped by! I am all about classic, timeless pieces that will always stay in style and help you reinvent your staples year after year. Hence for today’s post I decided to pull some of my fashion staples.

I am wearing a polka dot blouse with an old pair of ripped jeans, and a classic trench coat. I love this classic – yet fun look, and it’s certainly casual enough to chase after my 3 year old son (by changing to flats, though!).

PS: How awesome are those spike earrings from These Odds?! Based in Atlanta, ‘These Odds’ are known for recycling and up-cycling homeless pieces, and for graciously giving us an opportunity to shed light on the value of clothing that others may have over-looked or simply forgot about. To learn more about them click here.

As always, thanks so much for reading & have a fabulous Monday!
