Attitude is Everything

Max Mara Elegante ss11 (1)

I think this campaign is super cute. Not only do I love the dresses, I also like her attitude which reminds me that attitude is everything when it comes to pulling off an outfit.Max Mara Elegante ss11 (2)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (4)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (5) Max Mara Elegante ss11 (6)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (7)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (8)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (9)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (10)

What I Wore: Prim & Proper

(what i wore: dress – forever21, pumps – forever21, rings – forever21, necklace – mom’s, earrings – kate spade)
I didn’t realize until I began this post that everything I’m wearing (save the earrings/necklace) is from Forever. Either way, F21 is a great place to experiment without spending a lot of money. The earrings  were a gift from my dear friend who just started working for Kate Spade. Of course, the high bun is an old standby and I loved pairing a double finger ring with another single ring. Speaking of rings, Ro’s wedding ring came in yesterday. Sh*t is getting real! Can’t wait!

60s Inspired Bangs

After an inner conversation with myself, I decided a hair chop is not something I am ready to do. Ro concurs. So I’ve become enthralled with the idea of cutting 60s-inspired bangs like Julia Stegner’s post wedding. Like?

What I Wore: Geometric


(what i wore: top – forever21, cropped pants – new york & co, necklace/earrings – forever21, strappy sandals – bcbg, red lip – covergirl lip perfection in flame)
Yesterday I paired red lips and straight hair with cigarette pants, a striped top and strappy sandals. I love this easy look. It can take you from summer to fall and is comfy too!




What I Wore: Neon Blooms

(what i wore: dress – the grey dog, heels – forever21)
As much as I love to accessorize, I’m also really excited when I find a dress that needs nothing else. This is one of those fun summery dresses that can be paired with tights when it gets chilly. Versatility people!

Color Clash?

Emma Stone has been getting a lot of flack on the blogs and gossip sites for this Giambattista Valli number she wore to the Friends with Benefits premiere. I have to say I am feeling completely opposite about it. I think it’s totally fabulous.

The Modern Fanny Pack

There are some things that I won’t do. There are less things that I won’t wear. A fanny pack is not one of those things. Those who know me well know that I’m unabashedly unafraid to bust them out at occasions other than a music festival or an amusement park. Some of the people dare to look down on this habit. I realize that not all fanny packs are cute or flattering, but some are! And I would like to share those with you now. Beware: some of them appear under the guise of “belt purse”.

From the Weekend

It was quite an eventful weekend. We got a cake sample for our wedding cake and it tasted as good as it looks. .
A new and exciting sponsorship opportunity from BeBop Clothing. I got some goodies in on Friday and couldn’t wait to try them on – more to come!
Karaoke with Ro, my brother Hampton & his brother William. I couldn’t stop myself from singing “Alone” by Heart but regretted it later…
Ro’s mom came up bearing gifts! Including the below four poster bed frame for our room & a dining table. I’m obsessed.
Some sweet friends threw a stock the bar party for us and it was incredibly lovely. Here’s a picture with my mom. (dress – vintage from the grey dog)

Spoils from the stock the bar. Planning this wedding has certainly shown me how many people love us. I feel very special.

I hope you had a lovely weekend!
