Oxford, Ms - Oh, what fashion you have!

As I began strolling down memory lane and remembering what fun I had in Oxford, Ms at Ole Miss, one thing that came to mind... THE SHOPPING! There are some amazing little shops on the Square. If you are not familiar with Oxford, the Square is the downtown area where some of the best bars, food and entertainment all come together. Above all, the shopping is to die for there. If you are ever in Oxford for a football game, visiting the town or just passing through, go to the Square and check out these fabulous stores...

Pinterest Fashion in Hattiesburg

I was playing around with Pinterest this morning and came across some Mint skinnies that are just precious.
I looked around and found that Click Boutique in Hattiesburg, Miss. has a similar pair, and they paired it with a great sweater.
The Mint pants are $44 and the sweater is $46... Go get them before they are gone! :)

A very Sally outfit


I have a feeling that the late 80s/early 90s are coming back around. I found myself watching When Harry Met Sally tonight, and I could not help but to notice that I really liked a lot of the outfits Meg Ryan had on in the movie. This one in particular is my favorite... For good reason too. 
I have found a similar outfit...
Take this blazer from Click Boutique $53 (Hattiesburg)...

put it over this floral top from Libby Story $? (Jackson/Starkville)...

And pair it with these wide leg pants from Libby Story $48 ...

And voĆ­la... A similar outfit! Throw in the hat Libby Story $16 ...
Let me know what you think. I hope that you can imagine this outfit; I think it would be really great for a Fall walk through Central Park or if your in Mississippi - a stroll through the Grove on Ole Miss's campus!

Mississippi fashion meets New York style

I am starting this blog with a couple of things in mind. I want to create a place where people from smaller towns and rural areas in Mississippi can find the latest trends that are all the craze on the Runway and in magazines. Not only do I want to provide accessibility to the latest trends, but I also want to tell you where to find similar fashion trends for less.

Just a little information about myself. Well for starters, my name is Mindy Phillips. I am a public relations major at the University of Southern Mississippi, where I am the president of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) and a director for our student-run PR firm, The Agency. Elle magazine, here I come!

I have several ideas that could get this blog started. There are a couple of boutiques in the Jackson area that carry great clothes. Libby Story is truly my favorite! (FYI: They have a store in Ridgeland, Flowood and Starkville.) You can go to www.libbystory.com to see what they have to offer. I'll be posting a lot from their site. I also love a little boutique in Hattiesburg called Irie Boutique. You can go to www.irieboutique.com to check them out. There is a little hole-in-the-wall boutique in Tupelo called Yellow Lovebirds; they also have a store in Oxford. Speaking of Oxford - if you want a great "shopping Mecca" in Mississippi, go to Oxford. The Square, downtown Oxford, has tons of unique boutiques.

Throughout this blog, I will be posting pictures of designs that I love, and images of current trends around the globe. If you have any suggestions of new boutiques, please let me know, so I can check them out too. Also, if there is a specific outfit that you love and need suggestions of how to piece it together without spending a fortune - I'm here to help!
