Moroccan All Around


Embroidery, mirrors, and tassles- oh my! This top speaks to my soul like few others have. It makes me feel like I have a piece of something exotic and cultural, even though I didn't get it while traveling foreign lands. No sir, I got it via a few clicks of a mouse and the miracle of UPS. But that doesn't make it any less magical if you ask me.

Sporty Spice

 




I decided to balance out the boyish-ness of this loose top and baseball cap with a miniskirt and stilettos for a funky daytime look. And then, since I had big plans to go nowhere, I switched it out for a pencil skirt and statement necklace for a dressier evening look!

Summer in September


The trademark SoCal September heat wave has rudely barged in over the past week or so making it IMPOSSIBLE to get dressed or put on makeup. When it's 100+ degrees, I essentially give myself a free pass to "hibernate" inside and loaf around in as little clothing as possible. Hence, no blog posts. I finally sucked it up a couple days ago and threw on this simple, comfortable look. It's all thin and loose and pretty much as good as it gets in these circumstances. 

And just for fun (and because I'm hopelessly indecisive), I tried it with this top too:

Fingers crossed for some fall weather- STAT!

Senorita Skirt







This was before my sister Monica's bridal shower! She is getting married in TEN days and we are all so excited. I wore this Corey Lynn Calter skirt because it's the happiest thing I own. Monica and I have always had this thing where we end up accidentally matching each other-- sometimes it's too much and one of us has to change but this just looked well-planned! SISTERS 4 LIFE.
