Free People at the Bay

As my school year gets closer to the end, we have been out in the field more doing real work. This last week i was with a team of people and were asked to merchandise 8 mannequins for the brand Free People at the Bay. The brand is a little funky and for the miss-matchy fashion forward woman. I did two outfits, first was the outfit above. It consists of a cute floral dress with a neutral pink on the top with a waist band connecting. and a cute white lace lapel blazer over the top with a nice texture on it. It's nice to pair the simplicity of the jacket with the print on the skirt, and add the low key necklace just for added look.

The second outfit is:



It is another springy/summer time dress, i love dresses when its hot out! This outfit consists of a pink sequined dress with spaghetti straps ( hidden by the jacket) and a army green blazer over the top. The blazer shows a little attitude with the sleeves rolled up and contrasts nicely with the pink and creme. The army inspired jacket is also opposite from the cute and fun dress which goes to show that you can match these items and still look great. I paired the outfit with a chunky statement necklace to add a bit more attitude to the mannequin.

Through doing this, i have found a brand that i am now in love with. Free people is a higher price point, but its also great quality and fashion forward. Can't wait to go back and shop :)

Mannequins are so easy.. they always look so great in everything! Especially dressing headless mannequins, it's so easy to see yourself in the outfits!
It was fun getting to style my own pieces and i've found that i really enjoy it.. Styling in the future perhaps? We'll see.
