Trip to NYC!

We are SO excited about the trip we just got back from to NYC. Not only did we find great new brands but we found an even deeper love for the brands we already have. We are proud to say that we know you'll love the pieces we bought for Spring. But let's not get ahead of ourselves- Fall is in full swing, and we have everything from great tops, to new sweaters and patterned denim(yes, patterned denim is here to stay).


A few of our favorite things from the trip are bright colors, structured pieces and fun statement jewelry pieces. Here's a sneak peak of what Five Hearts will have to offer you in the upcoming months!

Chan Luu..Yes please!

I always wore a knock off version of the chan luu wrap bracelet that is until recently. My fiance bought me a beautiful black and silver bracelt (see below) for Christmas. It was so unexpected. I could never understand why anyone would buy a $200 bracelet. But I literally find myself wearing it everyday. It's the perfect piece for any outfit, casual or dressy, it just works. The problem with so many bracelets, at least for me, is they never fit my wrist. There always super big and it's so annoying to work all day with bracelets falling down my wrist. Anyways, big or small, these beauties will fit! If you are looking for something special, we can order anything! Just let us know :) Here's a peak....




SALE, SALE, SALE

We had such a mild winter season here in Wisconsin. Normally, I would be over joyed by this but being a clothing boutique owner...Not so much. No one was thinking about heavy sweaters and coats because we barely had to break any of that stuff out! Lucky for you all that means SALES! Five Hearts is still having their winter sale and it's ALL 75% off or more...Things are going fast but seriously there are some amazing pieces left. I know you're probably not thinking about wearing a sequined jacket in the near future but you'll be glad you bought that $24 sparkler when you have that special event to go to.

Stop in SOON!  :)

And I'm back...(for good this time)

Someone brought to my attention that I haven't blogged in awhile. Well actually in a really, really long while. A lot has happened in the past 9 months including getting engaged, planning a wedding, moving into a new home and getting a little nephew who is the cutest thing I've ever seen! So, I suppose I'll give myself a little bit of a break as to why I've been M.I.A.

The person who brought to my attention I suck at a blogger also gave me the brillaint idea to let you all in on who I've been following lately in the blogging/fashion world. So, here they are....Enjoy :)

- Jordan, a new mom, used to write for nonsociety which I also followed but when she left I hopped over to her new blog because to me she is extremely relatable. She has her own fashion sense and doesn't follow what may or may not be on trend in fashion. She writes about food, fashion, being a new mamma and just day to day life experiences. It's refreshing to say the least.

I'm sure most people know this blog. She has amazing style...I'm dying to read her book too!

Her photos give me inspiration to push the envelope with my style choices in fashion and design.

I know, I know...

I know. I've been an awful blogger lately. We've been prettyyy busy and that's no excuse but it's the truth!

Anyways, I've been in a good mood since the weather turned warm! Not only because it's finallyyy warm outside but also because we've had sooooooo many new faces in the store. I don't blame any of you for not leaving your houses through the winter but it is so nice to have people strolling the third ward all week long.

I used to think I hated dressing for warm weather but I think I've changed my mind. It takes me far less time to get ready in the morning ( my fiance would probably say otherwise) because I'm enjoying the simple, casual pieces in my closet that make for easy outfits. Today I'm wearing a Bailey 44 romper. They aren't always the most flattering of styles but this particular one has two different fabrics which makes it more wearable.



Mine is actually a gray/slate tone but you get the idea! It's the perfect piece to get me through this humid and hot day!

Mothers Day Gifts!

My mom flooded my email today with pictures of all the Virgin Saints and Angels items we have at the store that are PERFECT for mother's day gifts. Honestly, you really can't get much better than these beautiful necklaces, or a keychain for those looking to spend a little less. Virgin Saints and Angels is an amazing line that tells an amazing story- Kel has told it to all you fashion divas, so i'll skip that part.

Anyways- the accessories are perfect for all types of women. My mom is what I like to call trendy when it comes to style, so she usually opts for the layered necklace like the one below- in fact us girls all gave a very similar one to her for Christmas! The layers give a little flare to the piece making it a fun accessory to pair with an equally fun outfit. But what's really great is you can throw on a v-neck and jeans and still wear it effortlessly looking super casual for a day at the mall. I absolutely love when jewlery can be dressed up or down and this is definitely one of those pieces!  Also- it can be worn by literally any type of woman- whether your mom is a cardigan and jeans gal, or black pants and synched at the waist sweater gal, the necklace will be very easily worn. I especially love the detail on this necklace- it's delicate and looks like an antique piece- which all the VSA items do. We have a lot more styles in the store and would be more than happy to help you pick the perfect one!






Like I said, the keychain is also a super fun accessory. My mom gave one to each of the five sisters (and herself) for christmas and it was such a special present to each of us. That's another reason VSA is such a great line- for some reason the pieces just appear so special. The keychains can be especially great if your mom isn't exactly a jewlery wearer or if your dad usually takes care of that gift ( like my dad does!).  Each key chain has a stone and we personally did stones that were our birthstones which can be special but it's also fun to just do a stone your mom loves!

Comfy in Neon

Soo, I'm pretty obsessed with this whole blog thing, so I'm posting again today : )




Yesterday was my roommate, and best friend Mary's birthday. She is a true dare devil when it comes to fashion- one day she's wearing baggy jeans and a plaid button down, and the next she's rocking ripped tights under jean shorts and a flirty top. For her birthday I decided to fuel her fire and get her a little splash of neon from the store to add to her crazy collection. The price is perfect- just 18 for a spring to summer scarf. I love scarfs because they can truly make an outfit. Throw on a v-neck, a pair of jeans, and put on the comfy scarf and you have it made. This particular scarf, in neon tie die adds a bit of dare and creativity to your outfit, while still remaining casual and relaxed.

The way Mary paired her scarf with a very casual outfit was perfect for a day of classes. Like I said, scarfs are great- in fact, they're my favorite accessory. Even on a lazy day, when the effort to put on a chic outfit isn't there, I can throw on a scarf over my pull over and suddenly the outfit looks put together. We have so many options in the store- for the more conservative fashionistas as well as those trying to add a splash of floral or simple print to their wardrobe! We have it all, so come in and see for yourselves!
