Black & White Stripes


Here is an easy look that I wore last weekend. I adore stripes so much and love how they pair with black accessories.  The flats give this look a little edge while the quilted handbag helps to give it a classic feel!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Printed Spring Dress with Blush

Spring to me means dressing in layers.  I adore this cashmere cardigan so much.  I had a really hard time pulling the trigger on it initially but I can honestly say that it is my most worn piece of clothing (other than my distressed denim) in my entire wardrobe.  It is unbelievably soft and cuddly and I feel as though I am wearing my cuddliest pajamas every time I wear it.  I wear it multiple times a week.  While it is an investment, I have completely gotten my money's worth.  I am also thinking since I wear this color so much I NEED the gray as well.  Now, if you are looking for a similar look but not the price tag, you can check out this option.  It is adorable and about a tenth of the price.  Cardigans are amazing for layering with your Spring dresses to give you that little bit of warmth that you need to walk out the door in the mornings.  What is your favorite way to layer for Spring?

Casual Blush & White

As you are well aware, blush is a HUGE favorite of mine.  I adore classic shapes most in this color.  This tee is phenomenal and I honestly wear one of them in various colors weekly.  It is such a wardrobe staple.  In addition, these blush flats are stunners.  They elicited so many compliments when I wore them.  I cannot get enough of them.  I love that this look works for so many different day to day occasions.  Here I have it styled for the weekend but this look would transition easily to work with the simple removal of the hat and addition of heels to dress it up a bit!

Dropwaist Dress

Spring has me fully addicted to dresses.  While it is still kind of chilly here in California, I can't seem to stop purchasing them in hopes of being able to wear them on a daily basis soon.  This one from Anthropologie has sold out multiple times and is currently back in stock.  If your size is sold out, check back over the next few days as it tends to pop back up at random.  I adore the print on this and it is worth chasing after.  Also, these sandals are my favorite of the season.  I adore the tassels and lace up detail and honestly feel like they are some of the cutest shoes that I own.  I love them so much that I am debating finding them in black as well because I know that they will be worn often with my dresses!  There is a super similar version (made of suede though) here that are nearly identical!

Comfortable Glam

 Happy Monday!
You know those casual outfits that you put on and are completely comfortable in yet you feel stunning in?  This is one of those for me.  I adore the cozy sweater (mine is older but I linked an equally amazing one below) combined with the super cute ruffled hem top.  It feels like the perfect weekend look.  To really give it a weekend vibe, I added my trusted distressed denim. Can someone please make it so these jeans become work appropriate so I can live in mine the other five days of the week?  I don't know about you but I'm already dreaming of putting my jeans on again on Saturday.  #FashionistaProblems

Blush Peplum

So here I am in blush pink again…no suprise there!  I guess I'm just neutral obsessed right now.  It's not that I don't adore color…I'm sure it will be back in my wardrobe soon in terms of both handbags and Spring dresses.

Speaking of handbags, this Prada handbag is one of my all time favorites.  My favorite part of it is that the interior is a hot pink!  It's hard to come by online but I've managed to find one for $700 dollars off of retail and perfect condition.  If I didn't already own mine, I would hurdle over the couch and grab my laptop to purchase it…NOW!  It is an outstanding find as it is already so hard to come by let alone at this price!  If you've been lusting after it, now is the time!

Tweed Jacket

I adore classic pieces.  You all are very aware of that if you've been reading this blog for any amount of time.  This tweed jacket is one of my best classic finds yet.  It's great quality and is very reminiscent of a certain expensive coat that most girls lust after (ahem…CHANEL).  It is not only great in the fabric department but it's also fabulous in eliciting compliments from strangers as well!  The best part is that it is under $20!  It has a fast fashion price tag but not the horrible quality that typically goes along with it…personally I would have paid more than quadruple the price for this jacket.  It's a stunner!  I particularly adore it paired with destroyed denim and heels for a little bit of edge.

White & Gray

It is firm belief of mine that a neutral color outfit screams chic.  The lack of color is appealing as it helps to create a clean look that can transcend a multitude of situations (work or play).  Some highlights of this outfit include:  *These pumps are amazing in that they are both beautiful and comfortable too!  *These pants are great because they retain their shape as the day goes on and do not stretch out as many brands tend too!
