What I Wore: Black & Blue
what I wore: blouse – ann chabrol, skirt – freeway, heels – gianni bini, earrings – mom’s
These are my “game of thrones” earrings. They look like little pirate swords and I plucked them from obscurity in my mom’s closet the other day. I’ve always been crazy about my mom’s jewels and have been lifting them from her for close to 16 years. Every time I look through her jewelry I find something I haven’t seen before – something I want… Luckily, she lets me borrow and borrows from me.

Sometimes an outfit centers around earrings or shoes or any accessory. This one centered around this amazing belt.
Also I made chicken enchiladas last night and they were super easy and very yummy. I used this recipe and added black beans, salsa & cilantro.
What I Wore: In Black & White
what I wore: dress – max & cleo (old), heels – report signature, bag – vieta, sunnies – asos, earrings – vintage via mae’s
–
I’ve had this dress for at least 5 years and I couldn’t believe it when I couldn’t find a previous instance where I posted about it. It’s a really versatile and fun dress that I’ve worn to weddings & work alike.

Yesterday, I wore a dress that I had worn in April. Then I paired it with a lot of accessories, a big bun and a bomber jacket. This time, I did rose gold accessories with hair down.
What I Wore: Blue Bells
what I wore: top – vintage from cheap thrills, bells – asos, wedges – banana republic (old)
–
These are some of my favorite jeans and I recently found this perfect white white top, complete with shoulder pads.
What I Wore: Black Separates
what I wore: top – lna via shop lola, trousers – the limited, belt/watch – forever 21, cuff – express, ring – hemline, necklace – urban outfitters, heels – miss me
–
Whenever I wear separates (which is not often) they have to be good. I don’t think I’ve ever thrown on chinos and a top. Since I’m honed in on dresses most of the time, it takes a lot for a pant to speak to me. Last night I dug deep in to the recesses of my closet, where I keep the pants that don’t fit and found these gems. I don’t remember buying them but they’re a great length and I love the belt loops that are large enough for a giant belt. Paired with a tank I bought on sale at Shop Lola and a few accessories – it’s one of my favorite ‘separates’ look.
What I Wore: Among Hydrangeas
what I wore: vintage dianne ricco for nieman marcus (also seen here), cream blazer – unnamed vintage, heels – bcbg, lips – covergirl lip perfection in siren
–
I love this dress. It’s flattering, it can be casual or dressy and it’s work appropriate, but still a little sexy. It’s also happy – there are literally giant hydrangeas on the fabric. Don’t you love it when you find a dress that is versatile, fun and also you?
