Happy Monday! I'm currently blogging from California! I'm out here for work - if you want to see what I'm up to, follow me on Snapchat - username mallorysauer.

I love this all black two-piece look. It's a nice shake up from a traditional maxi. Don't get me wrong, maxi dresses are one of my favorite spring/summer pieces, but I love that a two-piece set breaks up the outfit a bit. Plus you can wear the pieces separately with other items in your closet, giving you more bang for your buck. I decided to mix it up and really step out by wearing a dark lip. I have rocked a nude lip since 2005. We're talking concealer and lip gloss (I know, don't hold it against me) before they even made nude lip colors. It's just been my thing, and anyone that knows me can attest to that. BUT, I'm trying to branch out with lip colors - they're so fun! I loved this super dark vampy color and thought it added extra drama to the all black look. I loved stacking these two GORGEOUS rings for more of a statement look.

One of my goals for Sweet & Sauer is to share outfits that are simple, but still feel chic and stylish. I find that I'm most attracted to the most simple outfits that have an effortless edge. I like to emulate that with hair, accessories or shoes, or in the case of this out fit, lip color. You don't have to buy fancy extravagant pieces to look good. Sometimes all it takes is a good accessory or a good hair day :) What are some of your favorite ways to add a little extra oomph to an outfit?

Friday Favorites: Haven Nail Salon

February 18, 2016/ Mallory Sauer

We made it to Friday! Today on Friday Favorites, I'm sharing a new nail salon in Denver that I recently visited and fell in love with! I bring you, Haven Nail Salon. You may have seen my snaps (username: mallorysauer) when my blogger friends and I visited the salon for manicures. Let me tell you, the space is darling. They're located in RiNo, you can book appointments online, and their main focus is cleanliness (can I get a "YAS!"). They offer a variety of services and are super talented when it comes to nail art (look at the conversation hearts they did on Natasha). It's been almost two weeks since I had my nails done, and I still don't have any chips! In addition to their nail services, they have cute accessories for purchase (I had to have the fringe clutch shown above, oops). Overall I give this place a 10 - definitely a place to check out if you're in the Denver area!

Fringe clutch shown above was purchased from Haven Nail Salon. The designer is Moda Luxe (I couldn't find the one I purchased online, but linked a similar one in widget below with the rest of my outfit details)

All my outfit details & accessories shown in pics are linked here:

Have a great weekend everyone!

Off The Shoulder

Top: Pinks Boutique (very similar here, similar here, here) Pants: Helmut Lang (dupes here, here) / Shoes: Charles David (on sale!) / Purse: Sold out (love this one and this one)

Jewelry from Hyde Park Jewelers #WithLove shop: Necklace 1, 2 / Bracelet 1, 2

Hi friends! Hope your week is going well! Today's look is a little different for me in that I've never really worn a top like this before. I feel like this off the shoulder top is something you either love or hate, no in-between (like cilantro, or chai tea). I happen to love it. It's fun and flirty and perfect for spring. I paired with leather leggings for an edgier look (and because I also happen to live in these pants).

Since the top is a statement in itself, I decided to keep the jewelry simple by layering these delicate Tacori necklaces and bracelets. I love that these pieces are simple, yet still make a statement. And mixing metals is one of my favorite jewelry trends.

Don't forget, Pink's Boutique will take orders over the phone! If you call or go into the store, let them know I sent you :)
