A Black and Gold Affair: Part 2

Hello! The second part of my Wake Forest themed post series, "A Black and Gold Affair," focuses on black and gold clothes and accessories! 

(1) Since I am such a typical girl, I looove sequins! Pretty much all of the items on this set has sequins on them! I think that this black top from Topshop is great to wear with jeans and black flats.

(2) ASOS has become my new online shopping obsession. They have actually everything you could ever want! This dress is perfect because it's black and gold! 

(3) The gold sequin tank top shown is also from ASOS. Love it!

(4) I am absolutely lusting over this gold long sleeved sequin mini dress from ASOS. While it is a little different from my usual style of Lilly dresses and pink and green accessories, I am crazy about this dress! It's so much fun and great for parties, especially in the holiday season!

(5) I wore this Ralph Lauren dress to a dance when I was a freshman in high school! It's black, but you can faintly see gold sequins underneath the top layer of fabric. Such a fun twist on a little black shift dress.

(6) Here is a black sequin wrap dress from ASOS. Even though it's sequined, it's a little bit more subdued than the gold sequin dress!

(7) Usually I don't go to Victoria's Secret to shop for clothes, but I love their black criss-cross dress!

(1) Now onto accessories! I love my black bauble necklace from J. Crew. It's cute with a simple t-shirt or with a sweater when it gets colder!

(2) Swell Caroline carries a black and gold watch that fits in perfectly with the WF school colors!

(3) Smathers and Branson, the wonderful needlepoint brand that is near and dear to my heart, has a striped black and gold needlepoint headband. So perfect!!

(4) I wear my monogrammed gold necklace almost every day and I love it! 

(5) Want to have a black and gold bracelet stack? Check out bracelets from Kate Spade, Swell Caroline, and Fornash!

(6) Lastly, there are millions of options for black and gold footwear! Jack Rogers released a line of their Navajo sandals in college colors, black and gold being one of their options. The Tory Burch Reva Flats are the classic approach to cute black and gold shoes. The third option from Zara is pricey, but so cute!

Have a lovely day!!

A Black and Gold Affair: Part 1

Hello! Just as a backup for those who have just started to follow this blog, I am a freshman at Wake Forest University in NC. I am super excited to go to college in a week (!!!), and I have been furiously searching the internet for anything and everything black and gold. I love the Wake Forest themed goodies, even if they are a little bit cheesy! Here are my favorite black and gold Wake themed things that I've come across!

(1) Smathers and Branson, my favorite needlepoint brand ever, offers a ton of collegiate merchandise on their website. I think that the needlepoint key fob is super cute!

(2) The college bookstore carries Wake croakies! 

(3) Here's another Smathers and Branson goodie: a needlepoint wallet!

(4) My Wake Forest Tervis Tumbler is actually one of my favorite Wake themed things ever. My grandmother sent me one when I was first accepted in March, and I carried it around with me every single day during Senior Spring! I brought it with me to Jackson Hole this summer, and even there I used it every single day at the pool and the gym! Tervis are the greatest cups ever, they're so sturdy and there are a trillion different styles to choose from!

(5) I definitely wear my Wake Nike Tempo Shorts more than any of my other norts! 

(6) Wake Forest Vineyard Vines apparel is getting harder and harder to find, but in the past, they have carried Demon Deacon Ties. Perfect for my dad and brother!

(7) The last Smathers + Wake item that I looove is the needlepoint belt. 

(8) Lastly, I am dying to find this Vineyard Vines Wake Forest Tote Bag. I have searched everywhere for it but I can't find it anywhere! I'm hoping they rerelease their collegiate line so I can stock up on black and gold goodies. 

Have a wonderful day!
