Easy As Pie

I hope everyone had a fun 4th of July! I spent the day with friends, enjoying the weather in the park, and eating good food- couldn't ask for a better time! Below you'll see what I wore to the festivities. You may see a hint of color under the shirt, and that's because I wore a crop top under, you know, to enhance my tanning capabilities. What did you do for the 4th?!

Dressed Down Sequins

Happy Thursday everyone! I'm really looking forward to the weekend. I'll be traveling to LA for work all of next week, so I'm looking forward to relaxing, and maybe catching a movie.

Below was a quick look I put together, trying to once again dress down my sequin skirt. A denim jacket, and black flats were the perfect tools to do so!

Jacket: F21. Skirt: J. Crew Collection. Necklace: Anthropologie. Bag: Vintage. Shoes: Steven by Steve Madden.

Kimono Details

I love seeing different cultural influences in fashion, especially Asians influences. We saw a lot of that during the Fall Fashion Week presentations, so I was super excited to see this jacket at a local consignment shop. What was even more exciting was that it's a Dries piece that fit to perfection. It was my lucky day for sure. For it's debut I thought a simple black maxi skirt and belt would highlight the kimono influence of the jacket, and really streamline the pattern.

Week//Daze

Happy Monday everyone!

I'm not going to lie, but the past two weeks have been extremely exhausting. By the time 5 pm hit last Friday, my eye lids were already heavy as anchors. Work has been tough, but also very rewarding, so I know I probably shouldn't complain. The outfit below is something I wore last week, as I was dressing in a rush, since the snooze button was hit a few too many times. The giant cozy sweater made me feel as though I was still at home, even while at my desk.

Sweater: Rag & Bone. Shirt: RD Style via Stitch Fix. Jeans: Levi's. Belt: Men's Banana Republic. Shoes: Steve Madden. Jewelry: Vintage. Bag: Anthropologie.

Trend- Spotting: Fluorescent Flats

Now that Summer is around the corner, for real, I thought it would be fun to cover shoe options, other than the go to sandal. Since sandals, no matter how cute, are not always appropriate, and heels can be a pain, flats in bright colors are perfect for Summer occasions. They are cool, light, and comfy, but they also add polish and a pop of color to our light and wispy ensembles. My personal favorite are the coral J. Crew pair; coral, patent, pointy toes, and flat, what more could a girl ask for?

Neutral Classics

I felt like doing a business causal look today. It may have something to do with this new blouse from Gap. It's super casual but such a classic and chic look. I kept most the colors neutral except for green here and there and a red lip.

Back to School Day

It was back to school day today! Not really though, for me anyway. I graduated a year ago, but I still am on campus regularly because of a volunteer position I have. Anyway, campus was full of eager and lost little freshman today, it was pretty funny actually. I remember how intimidatingly big the campus was, never mind how big SF seemed, but more than 5 years later the campus and city are incredibly small that sometimes I think about going somewhere else for a change.

This outfit is probably something I would have worn on my first day. A little trendy but mostly comfortable. Loose jeans and a loose silk shirt tucked in create a casual vibe. Maybe I can transport back to my first day of college with this look... life was so much easier then.

Ethnic Florals

Today I felt like wearing something super breezy and lightweight to fight the heat. I also wanted to wear my new flea market finds. This outfit came to mind. The top is as breezy as the skirt is airy. I also saw an opportunity to experiment with more prints, and I think this combo looks great. The floral water color print seemed neutral enough to handle the bold ethnic print of the top without clashing or losing it's presence. Then I topped it off with my new finds :)

Top and Skirt: Anthropologie. Necklace and Sunglasses: Vintage. Bag: Lucky Penny. Shoes: Steve Madden. Silver Cuff: Gifted.
