Day To Night Fashion : A Guest Post With Elly Brown

April 24, 2015 By Michelle 2 Comments

Oh ladies, do we have a treat for you today. Today we have the fabulous and oh so fashionable Elly Brown guest posting for us and sharing her day to night fashion. We met Elly at Thrive back in February and while home girl can give a Victoria Secrets model a run for their money, she is one of the sweetest and most down to earth mamas you will ever meet. So make sure and show her some love….

Hi there! I’m Elly and I will be filling in today for Channing while she has her heart procedure. I want to first thank Channing and Michelle for letting me come share with y’all. Second, Channing we are praying for you momma!

I am a Lifestyle blogger and blog at Uptown with Elly Brown. I have two little boys Jadyn who is 2 and Colin who is 1. I have been married for nearly 7 years now to my handsome, and amazing hubby. My family is everything to me, and I am extremely blessed! I blog a lot about fashion and beauty, and love learning new things, and experimenting when it comes to fashion. I would say my style has changed a lot since having kids. You can catch me most days in my workout tights, because let’s face it, it’s easy! Running around after two kids in heels all the time just doesn’t work. You could say that I’m a minimalist with my style, less is more.

Above, I put together these two different looks that can be worn from morning till night. Both SUPER easy looks, and perfect for running around town with the kids, or a casual date night with the hubby. Side note: I am a HUGE fan of the half tuck, it just makes the outfit look so cool, and who doesn’t want to look cool? These pieces are all staple pieces that I’m sure most of you already own. If you don’t, you need to go get them. Every women should own a button down top, boyfriends jeans, something leopard (because let’s face it, leopard is a neutral), black heels, and a cross body bag.

Don’t be afraid to wear different pieces together. It’s okay to wear heels with your boyfriend jeans. You can also layer a button down under a crop top, or over a graphic tee. Leopard can go with stripes, or polka dots. One thing I have learned with fashion is, if you rock it, you can wear it! Be bold, be beautiful, and be YOU! If you ever have any questions on how to style something I would love to help – and I really mean that! Check out my blog for more ideas and come follow me on Instagram and Facebook, I would love to hear from you!

Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope you have a great rest of the week!

See mamas? Isn’t she amazing? We seriously love the simplicity and the elegant style of these looks. And it really is something that is easy to recreate. We have already been chatting with Elly about a girls shopping trip so she can help style us. You MUST check out her blog for more of her amazing style!

Instagram post 17864637601827512 This is what happens on day number 3,568,743 of quarantine: ice cream sundaes for DINNER. We have been spending endless time together and decided it was time to start a new family tradition, so we picked up the new DIY Sundae Kit from @baskinrobbins! The kit comes with 2 pre-packed quarts of ice cream, 3 toppings, an entire can of whipped cream and cherries! Ice
cream for dinner will now be a weekly staple. The kids are definitely not complaining! It’s a fun day with a Sundae! 
Comment below and tell me your favorite Baskin Robbins flavor!

Instagram post 17850899390014309 Disney is challenging us to share our first pictures with characters! I had to join in the fun and it was the best trip down memory lane. Disney has been threaded throughout my entire life. I pulled a few of my most favorite memories over the years. From partying in the streets during the most epic dance party and meeting our most favorite princesses to me being a kid at Disney myself. Oh, I also had to add a picture of Cinderella’s Castle. She really is the most beautiful cast member of them all! 
@waltdisneyworld we miss you more and more each day. You’ve brought us joy beyond words and we cannot wait for the day when we get to walk down Main Street USA again! 
Ok, now it’s your turn. Find your old photos of your favorite Disney characters and share the magic. Also, don’t forget to tag me. I want to see all your memories too!
