July 7, 2016

When we were introduced to JORD watches, it was pretty much love at first sight. All of their watches are handmade of wood, which is not only unique but so chic.

When JORD reached out to us about collaborating we were so excited to try one of their watches out. The best part is that JORD has offered a giveaway for Fashion without the Fortune readers!


G I V E A W A Y  details

One winner will be chosen at random by JORD’s computer system and will win a $75 e-voucher to their site. The coolest part of this giveaway is that everyone that doesn’t win will be given a $20 e-gift card just for entering!

Click here to enter the giveaway! The winning e-voucher will expire 1 month after the giveaway end date which is July 24th.

Good luck!!


We incorporated some of our absolute fave fashion ensembles styled around our JORD watch!  Not only do we love how timeless and light the watch is because it is made of wood, but it’s perfect because you can style it with any outfit you want!

Kat paired it with a simple Summer dress, hat and threw on some added bangles and rings!

This outfit is perfect for a nice casual day out for lunch!  We love that this watch is so versatile so you can wear any outfit or accessory with it!

We wanted to show you that this watch can be styled many different ways so I chose to style it with a perfect Summer outfit!

I kept it very simple with white shorts and flowy top.  Since I was heading out to dinner I wore my suede pink/beige Steve Madden heels from Marshalls.

I wanted the watch to be the focal point of my outfit so I chose to wear no other accessories!

DSC_0201

I knew the pink in my blouse and heels would compliment the wood watch nicely!

As all of our blogger friends know, I am obsessed with watches especially ones of quality like Michael Kors.  After collaborating with JORD and receiving the watch, I seriously couldn’t be happier.

Kat and I have gotten so many compliments, and because of how lightweight it is we don’t even know we’re wearing it!  It is one of the classiest and stylish pieces of jewelry I own!

SUMMER trends featuring {OFF the SHOULDER}

July 5, 2016

One Summer trend that I cannot get enough of is off the shoulder pieces. They are so flattering and fun!

I am obsessed with this off the shoulder dress from SheIn! The material is so soft and I love the tassel detailing at the waist and neckline!

Tassel details this Summer is another trend obsession, am I right?!

I love that the waist is adjustable as is the neckline. You can tie the neckline or leave it open like I did!

STARS & S T R I P E S [dressing for the 4th]

June 29, 2016

June is seriously flying by!

The fact that the 4th of July is already fast approaching means Summer needs to sloooow down! Last year on the Fourth we celebrated in the Smokey Mountains which was so much fun!

This year we don’t have any fun road trips planned, but I know we will celebrate and of course, dress for the occasion.

We created some fun looks for the 4th and linked a bunch of fun options down below as well!

Brunchin’ {dressy & casual}

June 23, 2016

Brunch on the weekend (or any day) is always a good idea!  Whether you finally got a reservation at the place you’ve been wanting to try, or you just need some food in your stomach after that alcohol filled Saturday night, you must have something to wear!

DSC_0074

Kat and I put together two ensembs each for the specific brunch outing!

With the hot summer air and mild breezes among us, Kat loves to opt for a flowy dress. The off the shoulder look is quite the trend and it just so happens that this gorgeous blue and white striped dress features that!

DSC_0069

This dress is from Shoptiques {it is currently sold out, but they have an email notification to be messaged when it’s restocked!}. She loves how airy and light it is because let’s be real, in these high 90 degree temps we endure here in Florida, it is important to pick an outfit that’s cool and comfy. Aaaand that allows you to stuff your face at a brunch, of course, haha.

DSC_0070

Kat paired her dress with some nude lace up heels from Windsor and her brown leather Tory Burch clutch that she bought on sale of course!

DSC_0071

And of course it’s a must to accessorize, so she paired her Kate Spade studs with a mix of bangles and her Michael Kors watch!

DSC_0048

For my casual brunch outfit, I chose to wear clothes that I literally could throw together in a min.

DSC_0055

I chose to wore my $5 tee from Cotton-On because it was perfect for a brunch outing haha.

DSC_0057

I paired it with my new Nike hat so I wouldn’t have to worry about fixing my hair or even my makeup that much.  All I was focused on was eating haha.  I paired the outfit with some black faux fur flats and a Coach oversized bag.

DSC_0056

To give it that Summer vibe, I added some white boyfriend shorts and added some gold and black bangles-to show that I tried to put in some effort!

Since most of our stuff is sold out unfortunately, I linked some similar affordable options!

PINSPO

P I N S P O {white & denim}

June 20, 2016

Now that it is officially summertime, denim cutoffs have become a wardrobe staple.

We haven’t done a Pinspo post in a while, but when we saw these looks on two of our favorite style sistaaas we knew we wanted to recreate them. Budget friendly versions of course!

//LOOK #1

Emma Watson’s style is always on point! Whether she’s dressing up for a red carpet or a music festival. Tee loved her casual, classic Summer look, pairing denim cutoffs and a white blouse.

Tucking a white blouse into a pair of denim cutoffs looks so casual, but chic at the same time! Like Emma, Tee paired hers with leopard belt and some classic white sneakers.

-CLOSET CLEANOUT-

June 15, 2016

With this summer season upon us, Kat and I thought it was time to empty out our closets since they are literally at their breaking point haha.  We both consider ourselves clothes hoarders and try to do a clean out at least twice a year.  Since my shelf literally came out of the wall due to all the items I stacked up in my closet, I figured now was the time to do a reorganization.

There are so many fun trends out there this season, we thought it might be fun to feature a few of them on the blog including some affordable shop-able options!

Savannah [wrap-up]

June 6, 2016

We had a great girls trip in Savannah last week and wanted to share some of our favorite spots that we stumbled upon this trip.

If you’ve ever been to Savannah, you know it is a great city to just walk around and stumble into places that look fun and that is basically what we did this trip. We didn’t have any set plans and just wanted to see where the wind took us haha.

Here are some of our favorite [must-do’s] :

1. The Marshall House

IMG_5925

We stayed at the Marshall House this trip and it was perfect for a girl’s weekend. It’s such a historic hotel with tons of interesting background stories and so, so pretty! It was the perfect location to walk literally everywheeere in the city. And having a wine & cheese hour is always a bonus.

IMG_6020

2. Rocks on the Roof

This is the rooftop bar of the Bohemian Hotel on the river. The views are gorgeous! I can never pass up a rooftop bar and the drinks were delish. I definitely recommend hitting up their happy hour if you’re in town Monday through Thursday!

May 26, 2016

Now here on Fashion without the Fortune, you know we are allll about the affordable fashion find. We like amazing quality pieces for loooow prices. Which brings us to our new obsession- thredUp.

If you’ve never heard of thredUP, it is an online consignment shop, so you are able to sell and buy clothes! One man’s trash is another man’s treasure, am I right?!

The best part is they have some of our favorite brands and stores [Zara, TopShop, J Brand, Free People] and they share pictures anddd list the condition of the items .

IMG_1054

Tee picked out this light pink Ralph Lauren button down. She loves classic button downs for work and even more casual looks! A quality button down is a super verstatile piece to have in your closet.

This top was listed in excellent condition and it seriously looks brand new.
