BeMeCustom's Queen B Bag

If you have no idea what Queen B refers to, I have an assignment for you this weekend. Turn on your TV and get to Netflix. Go to search and type in Gossip Girl. Then, observe. THE Queen B in all her glory. Annnnnnyway, this might be my second favorite thing that Katie and I have ever put together. The first was my wedding.  

The Queen B Tote

 

Also, you OBVIOUSLY don't have to have the letter B on yours (take a WILD guess why this one has a B on it). What's more? In the next few weeks this tote is going to get all sorts of fun things: dots, chevron, three letters!? The good news for all of you is that I am nerding out so hard over this tote that I have updated our shop page so that now you can see a few more of the things that we are working on. Come visit us... the holidays are quickly approaching and I know a certain sister of mine who is going to be getting a hilarious shirt or tote or two from yours truly.

**Thank you cards are coming shortly you Queen B's you! :)

Fall Fashion: Brought to You By Our Etsy Shop!

I must finally admit it, it is fall. Fall fashion: It's happening. What also is finally happening is Katie and I's Etsy shop! We are still working on figuring out what we really want to focus on going forward, but for now we are doing fun t-shirts, totes, and some necklaces. In the next few weeks I am going to be working on some more printables and graphic design type goodness (think afforable wedding thank you cards).  We also are going to make another batch of vintage wedding napkins come winter.  Enough babbling, the name of the shop? BeMeCustom. "Be" is for Bennett, "Me" is for Meyer, and "Custom" represents our commitment to making each customer's experience unique. BMC-etsy-FINAL

To introduce some of our most fun items, we got together with Sammie and did a little fall fashion photo shoot. It. Was. Too. Fun. I'll be sure to notate which items are ours as we look at my adorable friends. Let's hop to it!

A classic fall look: chunky scarf, comfy sweater and skinny jeans. I also love the brown with black (it's not a rule anymore folks).

  • Scarf, shirt and belt: Thriftscores, all under $3…no shame.
  • Jeans: Paige Denim, a splurge from Nordstrom Rack a few years ago
  • Glasses: BonLook.com

This is one of our totes! It's called the "Big Books" tote.

We will make you a tote with almost anything you want on it, but this saying might be my new favorite. I paired the Big Books tote with a flowy sweater from Nordstrom Rack and Skinny jeans from Zara. The boots are old school Steve Madden. The watch is Michael Kors.

Katie is wearing one of my favorite shirts we sell because 1) hilarious and 2) totally true for her. I might have to just buy this one for my sister.

  • Shirt: BeMeCustom
  • Jeans: BlankNYC Denim – Katie says: "I’m fairly sure these were a thrift/buffalo exchange item, and are definitely a few years old (did I mention they’re like my fave go to jeans, like every day), but boyfriend jeans are always in, and these are a similar pair - BlankNYC Boyfriend Jeans. Fun fact: they’re called “Thrift Whore”  jeans."
  • Bag: Kelsi Dagger via Nordstrom Rack
  • Necklace: H&M

Sammie here is sporting a "no one is perfect" shirt from our shop, a red plaid shirt from Forever 21, black skinny jeans from American Eagle, the boots are from Steve Madden, and the watch is... of course... Michael Kors.

We are pretty excited to get this shop up and running. Even though I am WAY less excited about fall than the rest of the world, feel free to ask us any questions and let us know what you'd like to see in the future!
