BB Dakota … curated on LTK

annieroseclothes

I lived in outfits like this the last few months. Our weather can’t make up its mind so layers are the perfect way around it. I added quite a few blazer type items to my closet lately because they’re so versatile and can be dressed up or down so easily. This gorgeous one is on sale for $68 and pairs perfectly with a graphic tee and my favorite wide leg jeans. Check my stories to see this look and fit details in real life! http://liketk.it/2Chsa #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 #LTKspring

Last night’s date night look was a good one! Coated black denim and a sweater will always fit the bill! I’ve had these jeans for a few years now and get a lot of wear out of them during the cooler months. Perfect w sweaters, blouses and tees. http://liketk.it/2FYZJ #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

Leopard and sneaks for a day of running errands with the boys! The last couple days I felt defeated by what’s going on with my skin lately and today (with some help from makeup) I’m feeling better. I received lots of encouraging messages from everyone about their experiences with adult acne as well as accutane and it’s been so helpful! On a lighter note, check out my stories for sizing info on this ridiculously cute turtleneck! http://liketk.it/2FVpz #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50

It’s finally cool enough, at least last week it was, to bring to life my favorite Nordstrom Anniversary pieces! I had been holding off on Madewell jeans for some reason but now that I have a pair I think they’ll be right up there with my favorite Levi’s! Are you excited to tap into your fall wardrobe or are you hanging on to every degree? http://liketk.it/2FrHL #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKsalealert

Took the cargo pants for a spin today and I seriously debated ditching the diaper bag in lieu of all the extra pockets! JK. What do you think of this cargo pant trend? Let me be clear, cargo shorts on men are still the 👿! Shop this $25 pair through the @liketoknow.it app or the SHOP INSTAGRAM page on the blog! http://liketk.it/2Fd0m #liketkit #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

Bodysuits: love em or hate em?? I’ll admit I was not on board until I tried the right one! Turns out they’re not all created equal! I’ve tried many that were too short or too uncomfortable and now that I know what to look for it’s much easier to find one that works. A few tips for you, 1.) If you have a long torso you’ll probably want to size up and 2.) Go for a thong version to save yourself from picking wedgies all night! I linked a few of my favorite in the @liketoknow.it app and on the blog under Shop Instagram! http://liketk.it/2F5mq #liketkit

When I say monochromatic looks we’re all over the runway last week at #nyfw I wasn’t kidding. I’m loving the trend because there’s a wide range of interpretations (swipe right) and they are all so good! This look is will definitely be a go-to come holiday season with the swap of the shoes but I’m also loving the gray denim + sweater interpretation. I’ve linked a couple different options for the look in the @liketoknow.it app and on the blog. How do you feel about one color from head to toe? http://liketk.it/2F1wW #LTKstyletip #liketkit

For the last 6 months I’ve been consistently working out 5 or 6 days a week so when I say I know which leggings pass the squat test and which tanks absorb the most sweat, you can trust my educated opinion!! I’ve tried the high and low end brands and consistently wear a few from each category. You can shop my favorites from the @liketoknow.it app or the blog! http://liketk.it/2EWa9 #liketkit

Camo + stripe. A combo I’ll never tire of. Excited that the temps are dropping and I’ll be able to wear this camo shirt/jacket every. single. day. 😁 We’ve officially kicked off football season at our house which means the Wolverines flag is flying and my husband’s mood is determined by a win or loss! 🤦🏻‍♀️ GO BLUE! http://liketk.it/2EGtB #liketkit @liketoknow.it

Coffee + comfy sneaks on the first day back to school! As much as I love that the kids are heading back to school that also means my babysitters are too! 😫 Are you one of those parents breathing a sigh of relief today or do you genuinely enjoy 3 months of summer vacation with your kids home? I’m definitely in the camp that the first month is great but by mid July everyone is going a little crazy. I’m breathing a sigh of relief to have my oldest starting school today. How about you?! http://liketk.it/2EqFJ #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKstyletip

Over the last year I’ve started thinking about fashion as a long term investment rather than a quick fix and with that mindset I’ve been purchasing more timeless, designer pieces. I don’t take the purchase lightly and in tonight’s blog post I share a few things to consider before pulling the trigger! Head to the blog to read how I shop and the things I think about when making a designer purchase. Shop this look from the blog post or through the @liketoknow.it app http://liketk.it/2EpdG #liketkit #LTKstyletip #LTKsalealert

We’re just a few weeks out from school starting but I have a feeling we’ve got a few months of summer weather left. If I’m not in workout clothes or pajamas I’m certainly in some variation of a tee/tank and jean shorts. I’ve linked this tank (on sale) and a couple of my other go-to’s in the @liketoknow.it app in case you want to stock up on a few pieces that will keep you going the next few months and for summers to come. http://liketk.it/2DWqA #liketkit #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip #LTKunder50 #LTKsalealert

If you’ve been following me for the last few years you know my range of pieces is pretty expansive in price. I will jump on a $34 target dress and contemplate a designer piece that’s an investment for months before I pull the trigger. Either way, my closet doesn’t discriminate. This dress is one of those budget friendly “jumps” and I couldn’t love it more! Swipe right to see a couple ways I’ve styled it! http://liketk.it/2Cqxr #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKstyletip

These long shorts are my favorite for the summer. They come in 3 washes (I have them all 😬) and are $29! Size up if you want a more boyfriend fit. Otherwise, tts. See how I styled them in my stories. #liketkit http://liketk.it/2Cg6y @liketoknow.it

Casual Friday complete with toddlers, baby toys and a giant pile of laundry to be folded just out of the frame. This is one of my favorite casual looks for spring/summer because as the day goes on the weather warms up and you can ditch the shacket ($29) - which is one of my favorite purchases as of late! I’m wearing a small but definitely could have sizes down to an xs (which is the only size still left ☹️). Happy Friday, friends!! http://liketk.it/2BTpE #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKspring

Today on the blog I’ve rounded up my favorite weekend sale items - they’re good! I also share why I actually don’t love Mother’s Day. I know, I know - how could I not love a day all about ME?! 🤷🏻‍♀️ Here’s a hint. It has something to do with expectation vs. reality! Head to the blog to read more about it and shop some great sale pieces to get you through warner weather!! http://liketk.it/2BL8D #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKsalealert

Floral tops and distressed denim are my jam this spring. I love a good feminine + edgy pairing and this combo does the trick! This sweet little top comes in two colors and is under $40 with code MONDAY. Check my latest try on session (saved to highlights) to see fit details. http://liketk.it/2BDBn #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKsalealert

It was like riding a back at today’s photo shoot! Haven’t done it in a few months but it was fun to get back out there! This adorable top is on sale for just $27, jeans $20 and bag under $20! The shoes? Well they’re a little splurge but so darn cute and I’ll wear them for years to come! Swipe right to check out the cutie detail on the back of this top!! http://liketk.it/2BAbJ #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKsalealert

Today’s High Fashion at Home recreation is one my favorites. Funky blazers and graphic tee’s are my jam! This one is in and out of stock but I linked a bunch of my favorites at great price points. Swipe right to see the inspiration photo and check my stories to see how I put this look together! http://liketk.it/2AIrf #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder100 #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip

My littlest Valentine ❤️ got a helmet today and he’s taking it like a champ! It will certainly take some getting used to and adding the maintenance of it to my list of things to do is a little annoying but he’ll thank me in 20 years when he wants to shave his head!😆 http://liketk.it/2zVOq #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKbaby #LTKhome

I had fun elevating a few classic looks in today’s High Fashion at Home (check my stories). I recreated three inspiration looks from what I had in my closet and I think I got pretty darn close! Each look is classic but can be worn differently with a change of accessories, shoes or coat and I love them all! I’ve linked what I can in the @liketoknow.it app and some similar items if the exact piece isn’t available. Which look is your favorite? Let me know in the comments. http://liketk.it/2zRyu #liketkit #LTKstyletip

I mom’ed real hard today #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip ! Cleaning, laundry, meal prep and doctors appointments. The current discussion in our house is surrounding Banks’ helmet to round out his head and whether I’ll let my husband turn him into a UofM football player! The verdict is still out! This long puffer vest is a favorite @amazon find and it’s just $35. Shop this look from the blog (shop Instagram) or through the @liketoknow.it app. http://liketk.it/2zLJn #liketkit

A great pair of white jeans for $30. They run true to size and I bought a Tall so they came down to a regular length. http://liketk.it/2zsJB #liketkit @liketoknow.it

Anyone else loving this color combination lately? I’ve been seeing it all over the runways and was inspired to pair yellow + camel in tonight’s post. Yellow is so cheerful for these dreary winter days and this camel trench is the perfect accompaniment. I’ve had this trench in my closet for years and love it. It’s definitely one of my favorite staples. Shop this look through the @liketoknow.it app or the blog with the link in my bio. http://liketk.it/2zoDW #liketkit #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

For the last couple months I’ve been posting high fashion looks to my Instagram stories as inspiration for you to look at your closet a little differently. As much as you guys love it, I love doing it. I’ve been browsing “high fashion street style” on @pinterest for years now and in 2019 I am making a conscious effort to share with you things that bring me joy. Thus, high fashion inspiration every week.

I thought it would be fun to do a weekly series called High Fashion at Home where I recreate the inspired looks with pieces I currently have. The looks I create are not typically a dead ringer for the inspiration photo because I’m only using what I already have but I will say I do come pretty darn close. Today’s High Fashion at Home can be viewed on my Instagram stories and is saved to my highlights along with all of my style inspiration photos. Do you like this series? @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2zmYr #liketkit #LTKstyletip

Remember when I shared an inspiration photo of a faux fur jacket and Nike blazers to my stories? Well, here it is folks! I’ve had both of these pieces in my closet for a few years now and I thought the casual sneakers set off the glam faux fur perfectly. What do you think of this look? http://liketk.it/2zmc0 #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

My first pick for #36thingsin2019 is Spanx leggings! Styling them 3 ways was an easy challenge because I came up with about 50 in my head! Do you own a pair? Head to the blog to see the other ways I styled these bad boys! Also this turtleneck is so big and cozy and the perfect shade of pink to brighten your dreary winter spirits! http://liketk.it/2zhML #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

Hands down I’ll be wearing this look for the 100th time at some point this weekend. I LOVE this leather jacket and would highly suggesting snagging it if you don’t already have one in your arsenal. I wear it spring, fall and winter and it’s just as perfect over a feminine dress as it is with denim and a chunky scarf (this one -my favorite- is marked down to $24) How do you style your leather jacket? http://liketk.it/2zgpM #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKstyletip #LTKunder100

Are you still buying sweaters or do you already have your eye on tank tops and shorts for Spring Break? We just booked our trip to FL so I’ll be browsing resprt wear for the next couple months! Bring on the warm weather and cocktails! http://liketk.it/2zfnN #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

I’m pretty sure we’ve decided we’re done having babies so I thought it would be fun to share our (rather long) list of baby names with you! It’s been about 10 years running and edited a few times, but was definitely a solid reference when we were deciding on names. I wanted something creative that they wouldn’t want to kill me for when they were older. It was always so hard to choose because I loved so many of them! What are your favorite baby names? http://liketk.it/2zeiL #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKstyletip #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 #LTKbaby

The first #36thingsin2019 post is live on the blog! The first of three pieces in January are Spanx faux leather leggings. They’re certainly a popular item and now (that I’ve pulled them from the depths of my closet) I see what all the fuss is about. They seriously suck it ALL in without cutting off your oxygen supply! Head to the blog to see the other two ways I styled them. Do you own already own a pair of @spanx faux leather leggings? Do you love them? @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2zc3v #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

It’s the first day of 2019 and I’m so excited for a fresh year, a fresh start and a year of thoughtful consumption! If you’ve been following along you know that I’ll be doing a #36thingsin2019 challenge where I’ve committed to purchasing just three new clothing items each month and styling them several ways for you. I’m hoping this will force me to shop my current closet and help me think through the purchases I make.

Some of you have already committed to more thoughtful purchases in 2019 and I’m so excited for you to participate alongside me. If you’d like to read a little more about what drove me to make a change in my consumption habits head over to the blog and read my latest post. Maybe you can relate! Be sure to share your journey with the hashtag #36thingsin2019! Stay tuned to see the three pieces I’ve styled for January - coming soon!! @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2z75I #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip #LTKsalealert

Layering this $41 cardigan over all the things lately. It doesn’t shed, isn’t itchy and I’ve worn it with jean, leggings and even over my pjs in the morning! @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2z41o
