(beso) in real life / 8

do you use BESO.COM?

if i had to define what Beso is, i'd say it was everything i love about online shopping, plus Google search, plus Pinterest, with a sprinkling of Polyvore.

say you're looking for a midi-length pleated skirt.

search on Beso and it will pull up thousands of them from all over the web.

you can refine your searches with only brands that you actually like

refine by price - low to high (you know that's my favorite feature, as i live & breathe for a good deal.)

you can add brands to your "sale rack" and it will alert you when they have great deals.

you can create collections and peep in on your friends' as well.

when i used to spend hours online shopping for something special, this takes minutes.

it has changed the way i shop online, for the better!

this week i collaborated with BESO to make my own collection for their site, care to take a look?

i based it around what i consider to be my spring essentials:

chambray denim shirt - worn in & soft it, goes with literally everything.

i've worn a denim shirt with a sequin skirt to a wedding, dark skinny jeans and sneakers for running errands, or shown here: tucked into a midi or maxi length pleated skirt.

 this skirt is hot hot hot for spring, i have collected several over the years and worn them here and here. accessorize with the perfect casual & rugged ankle bootie, whether it winks at western like above, or preppy with a platform lace-up oxford style, or a little hipster moccasins: they all do the trick. throw on a super bright timepiece, cat-eye sunnies and my all time favorite hair accessory, the head scarf.

top it all off with a bright satchel (cambridge satchel's are my current obsession) and you're perfectly springish.

you can wear all of these pieces together,

or get some serious mileage out of each piece on their own.

i found 40+ items for all of these categories, all in affordable price ranges,
