Going on Holiday

The day I’ve been waiting for is nearly here. Starting Sunday, my boyfriend and I are going on holiday for five whole nights and six whole days. The beach! I’m not bringing my computer… I may not even turn on my phone… There could be a sporadic post but honestly I doubt it. I do hope you’ll come back upon my return – Monday 9/13. I’ll leave you with some goodies while I’m gone. Have a lovely holiday weekend!

In case you’ve missed

An Homage to White After Labor Day

Supposedly we are supposed to stash all things white from our wardrobes after Monday (save white button-downs or creams). While I agree there is no place for a full bright-white ensemble in 20-degree temperatures, I disagree that after Monday all whites should be shucked, packed and put away. I think my distaste for this “rule” comes from living in New Orleans for four years. There the weather can change on a dime and no one would mock you for wearing a chic white dress in mid-October if it were 75 and sunny (which it often is). While I am excited for Autumn, Summer is my favorite season and I plan to hang on to my white pieces a little longer…

Slightly silly or fun idea?

Love this Look: New Monochromatic

Recently discovered Greg Kessler’s blog – Go Backstage and am loving the candid, behind-the-scenes photos. I absolutely love this look. It’s the combination of different colors within the same palette, from shoes to hair.
