What I Wore: Pretty in Plaid

what I wore: dress – vintage penny rosenfeld via cheap thrills (seen here), heels – jessica simpson, cateye sunnies – asos

This is one of my favorite dresses. I had a moment when I spotted it, like it had to come home with me no matter the price tag. I love the color, the silhouette, the waist-cinch, the length, neckline, skirt. I mean….I love it. I haven’t worn it since last summer and I’m so happy to see it/wear it again. I think it’s really important for those of us who love clothes to always be on the lookout for items that make us feel more like ourselves.

What I Wore: Librarian-Chic

what I wore: dress – french connection (thrifted), heels – quipid, glasses – shop ultra, watch – bcbg, bangles – vintage & dannijo, nails – revlon
Glasses are one of those accessories that can completely change your look. These are my favorite frames from Shop Ultra, I immediately feel smarter (and chicer).

What I Wore: Gold Lamé

what I wore: dress – anthony marc (thrifted), belt & necklace – vintage, heels – nine west, earrings – kate spade

I love love love this gold lamé dress. It sparkles in the sunlight!

What I Wore: Nostalgia

what I wore: dress – nostalgia, belt – vintage, heels – vince camuto, earrings – vintage from mae’s

This dress is so aptly branded. I didn’t realize the name of the brand until I took it off to record it for this post, but it is nostalgia. The reason it’s nostalgic to me is that this dress was purchased for me by my mother on a girls’ trip to Eureka Springs, she also bought the same dress for herself and we proceeded to gallivant around in these matching dresses for subsequent years. This was about 15 years ago. The dress is still relevant and we both still have ours! Isn’t that fun?

Leggy lovely: The short dress and heels highlighted the blonde star's long legs

Diane Kruger is someone who has a style that I almost always admire. I also love how she and Joshua Jackson (Pacey) dress to compliment each other. I absolutely love this dress she wore to the Cannes jury photo-call. I can’t wait to see what she wears for the rest of the week.

Weekend in Charleston Moodboard

One of my baby brothers is graduating from college! He has been living in the most preferable of situations. School in downtown Charleston, minutes from the beach. My mom, other brother and I are going early to spend a few days at Folly beach before the rest of the family comes in and we fete Hampton.

While trying to keep in mind the packing guides I found last week, I’ve got to plan several chic dinner ensembles & beach day looks. I’m thinking flowing dresses and big hair, stripes & denim cutoffs, bright lips.

What I Wore: Entrenched

what I wore: dress – banana republic, heels – kelsi dagger, ring – forever21, nails – maybelline orange fix, lips – covergirl lip perfection fairy tale
I’ve had this dress forever but I still love it. I like to pull it out when I want to feel especially polished without exerting a lot of effort.

What I Wore: Surely Sheer

what I wore: dress – twelve by twelve, heels – bcbg, nails – maybelline orange fix

What I Wore: White Eyelet

what I wore: dress – vintage laura ashley from cheap thrills, heels – go jane, earrings – vintage from mae’s, watch – bcbg, bangle – kate spade
I love this dress. It has such a lovely fit. It’s also see-thru so you can wear a white slip underneath or black for a cold weather look (seen here). I’m also looking forward to wearing it over a swimsuit this summer. Excuse my photo-op location!

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.
