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”.

Ladies Lunching

I adore these sugary-sweet images of pretty girls in hats and gloves eating confections. What’s more fun?

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.


Young Hollywood

Hello Hollywood! I love this breezy lookbook with gauzy fabrics, muted hues and platinum locks.

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.

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.

Obsessed with this

A friend from work pointed this out to me. Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co. designed “the bottle” which is inspired by Italian women who accessorize with fresh flowers. How chic is that?

Summer of Rock

For some reason, it doesn’t bother me that Erin Wasson is completely typecast as the free-spirited hippy rocker. She wears it well.
