My Best Looks of the Year

TGIF to the Nth degree! It is the last Friday of the month and thus my annual countdown of my best outfits of the year – not necessarily the ones you have love the most (by traffic, comments, or likes) but the ones I have enjoyed putting together the most.  I find it quite funny that in 6 of the 10 posts  I am wearing sunnies .- maybe becoming Blair or it is just easier, take your pick, lol.  

I also think it is worth noting a special thanks to my Mom who was the photographer behind half of these shots, thanks Mom!  (The other half were a combination of my boyfriend, my brother, and my tripod) Take a look my best looks of 2019: 

10 | Black and Red with Attitude  –  Going to Milan Fashion Week was arguably one of the craziest and most impulsive things I did in 2019 but it was also one of the most fun! 

9 | Touring in a Tropical Print Dress –  One of my favorite every day looks I wore on a date day around London visiting both the North and South Bank. 

8 | Winter Style in Bournemouth – This year I started posting more casual, every day looks for Fashion Friday – things you would actually see me out and about London wearing and this was simply a very “Kelly” outfit! 

7 |  Baby Got Black  –  Everything about this look makes me happy – black and white combination, the movement of this dress, and these killer boots. This reminds me that I need to re-wear this exact same outfit soon. 

6 | Twirling in a Pleated Croc Midi Skirt . – This post was quite recent but as number seven suggests, I love anything that has good movement and this skirt pretty much begs to be spun around, even though it is quite heavy! 

5 |  Spring Neutrals –  A post of new meets old where  I added some of my top Spring 2019 finds; Le Spec sunnies, Endless Rose top, and Stuart Weitzman shoes, to a few of my stapes; Uniqlo jeggings, Gucci bag, and Michael Kors watch. 

4 | Lightning Leopard –  Such a fun party / date night dress and it reminds me how much I love a red lip even if my family doesn’t quite agree!

3 | Summer Whites in Brooklyn –  My favorite thing about this is not actually the look, it is the fact this dress fit again – it was a serious non scale victory.  Plus showing my boyfriend New York for the first time was pretty great. 

2|   Posing on the Paris Pillars  – I would like to think that this post is proof that I really am getting better at using my tripod!  And proof that Paris is always a good idea!

1 | (1) Black and Red for Broadway –  I had such a good time going back to New York in August, sometimes I really do miss the city! I wore this look to dinner at one of my favorite spots and then to a Broadway show.  Oh, and this was the first Sparkles & Shoes appearance of my first pair of Louboutins  (the Pillage Plato 120 in Black Patent) – yeah, that did not hurt either!  

And in case you have an inclination to take a walk down memory lane here are some of the round ups of past years, my 10 best looks of 2018 and the best looks of 2017! 

Which of these best looks of 2019 is your favorite?
