The shoe to wear with everything
dolce vita booties, $78 Shop Lola
I got these booties for my DC trip and literally wore them with everything from a mini dress to maxi dress to cargo skinnies. I’ve never owned a shoe I could/would wear with anything. I’m obsessed. Here’s one example.
(Packing for) A Weekend Getaway
Today I’m leaving for a long weekend in Washington, DC. My bestie lives there and we are going to eat, shop and see live music. It’s always fun to pack for a weekend getaway but also a little nerve wracking because of the contributing factors. Will the weather be as forecast? Should I only carry on? Do I need clothes for rain? Will I be walking a lot? Which bag/s? I always lean toward over packing. There are inevitably several items I pack and don’t use. I’m a dress person, so I’m planning to wear pants & a blazer to travel, then bring my dresses.
Here are a couple of packing guides that I found helpful…

What I Wore: Peachy Keen
what I wore: dress & belt – vintage from grey dog, heels – kelsi dagger, collar – urban outfitters, earrings – kate spade, watch & bangle – asos, necklace – vintage

Sometimes an ensemble looks best without too much extra and other times it begs for accessories. This was one of those times. I love any excuse to utilize my rose gold and am always clamoring for more. All in all, a quintessential spring look.
What I Wore: Psychedelic
what I wore: dress – cheap thrills (also seen here), heels – jessica simpson, necklace – forever21, lipstick – CoverGirl Lip Perfection in Fairytale
–
This is dress is one of my favorite finds. I love the silhouette, the neckline, the length and the color! I’ve also been totally into a bright pink lip lately. Spring makes me want to experiment with color. Hope you’re having a great day!
What I Wore: White on White
what I wore: blazer – banana republic, dress – gianni bini, heels – jeffrey campbell, sunnies – gas station
–
I love a polished look. I thought the white sunnies and the white platforms added just the right amount of funk to an otherwise tailored look.
What I Wore: Spring Wedding
what I wore: dress – vintage from cheap thrills, heels – bcbg, bag – ann taylor (thrifted)
–
I wore this on Saturday to an evening wedding. The dress is one of my favorites that I own. It’s a great party dress that can be worn in any season. It does only good things for the figure and the gold threading actually sparkles. I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
What I Wore: Pleats/Bow/Blazer
what I wore: dress – grey dog, blazer – banana republic, heels – kelsi dagger
–
I found this great dress at Grey Dog the other day. I always find beautiful things there and Molly has constant loveliness on her sale rack. It’s hard to resist pleats & bows in the same frock!
What I Wore: Cream Puff
what I wore: dress – impressions (seen here), blazer – antonio melani, heels – kelsi dagger, earrings – vintage from grey dog, bracelet – house of harlow (similar)
–
This is a dress for all seasons. In August, I wore it to my post-wedding brunch. In December, I wore it with black tights. I love shape, the color and of course the bow. Paired with a muted plaid blazer and my new favorite earrings, I thought it proved its versatility.
What I Wore: Blue Ruffles
what I wore: dress – vintage from cheap thrills, belt – new york & co, booties – gianni bini, watch – bcbg, bangle – kate spade
