What I Wore: Brights

(what i wore: top – tj maxx, pants – old navy, platforms – bcbg, jewelry – vintage & forever21)
Yesterday I wore a quite bright outfit but nothing could keep me cool. It’s getting harder and harder to find motivation to wear my hair down. You?

Looking Forward to Fall

Ok. Officially. It is too hot. I’ve given up hope that it will ever cool down. I’m thinking we will have to bring sweats and leggings to Italy where the high is a balmy 82 and the low is a frigid 60. If fall ever comes, here are a few things I look forward to wearing.

Fall Shoe Lusting

This fall I’m going to be all about loafers and platforms. And I have a penchant for blues if you couldn’t tell…

What I Wore: In the Navy

(what i wore: trousers – ralph lauren, tank – bcbg, jewels – vintage, F21, banana republic, unseen heels – steve madden)
I found these high waist navy sailor pants last week at TJ Maxx and I absolutely adore them. They are the perfect length to wear/disguise towering platforms and elongate the leg.

Julia Stegner is as beautiful as ever in this editorial from Harper’s Bazaar 2008. I love the juxtaposition of the black & white against the desert. Enjoy!

What I Wore: Transitional


(what i wore: glasses – shop ultra, tunic – forever21, jeans – levi, wedges – qupid)
Not sure why I’m wearing transitional outfits when it’s hot as an inferno outside. However, it’s very difficult to dress for being in air conditioning all day. Sometimes it feels so frigid inside, you’re uncomfortable wearing sleeveless. So, I wore this Friday and felt great all day inside my office. As soon as I stepped outside I thought I was going to stroke out. Nonetheless, I can’t wait to revisit it for fall.



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!

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!
