Red + White

I adore this combo (red & white). There are so many ways to pull it off and I am constantly drawn to the colors together.

What I Wore: Back in Black

(What I Wore: dress – olive and oak, belt – vintage, stripper heels – qupid, glasses – shop ultra, bracelets – shop ultra, forever21, charm & chain, earrings – charm & chain)
Black is really my favorite color to wear. Black and/or white actually. I love that you can accessorize with anything when dealing with a blank pallet. PS: I got the black beaded bracelets stuck on my upper arm – that was cute.


Shall we dine?

 

Mealtimes are my favorite times. It’s not just about eating – it’s mostly about conversation and wine and the art of a beautiful table – but it is also about eating… One of the things I aspire to create for my home is a welcoming/chic eating area.

Heidi Klum’s Lifestyle Site

Miranda and Me

Heidi K has launched a lifestyle website for AOL among the many other things she’s involved in. She does things like a summer run challenge (running with different super models: Miranda Kerr, Coco Rocha et al) and daily outfit postings. The Cut calls it 1/2 Goop, 1/2 Oprah and I think she’s likable so I’m not too judgmental.
PS: I ran yesterday and it was a pathetic, pitiful sight. Maybe I need to run behind Miranda Kerr to get me motivated.

Let them eat cake

Yes it’s seven weeks before the wedding and no I hadn’t even thought about the cake until recently. It’s not that I don’t love cake, believe me…I do. I just had left it out and waited until I knew how the budget was going to shake out. Anyway, in one of those serendipitous happenings that you always wish for when planning an event, I found a baker in my price range and we made a deal.
Here are my inspirations.

Summer Brights

As if I wasn’t already dying to go to the beach…now I want to go wearing giant rock necklaces and tribal crop tops.

Summer Work Wear

I love these outfits for inspiration when the days are oh-so long and hot and you’d so rather be at the pool than in the office.

Happy July!

I hope you enjoy every second of your holiday weekend. It’s always good to remember the freedoms and privileges we are afforded because we live in America – even with it’s faults. I begin to feel that summer is in full force when the 4th comes around, and I never fail to wonder where June has gone.

The Dreamiest Activity
