Little Black Dress

You can never have too many LBD, especially when they come in all different styles. This little gem has some feminine pleats ( surprise, surprise…I guess I’m on a pleat kick) and a sheer v-neck cut at the top. Sometimes less is more, and I think this dress is just that.

Do you own a LBD?

PS. Don’t forget that I have partnered with Prim, a local Bay Area boutique, and am offering 20% off their entire site. Check out my post here to find out how to shop their site!

The List {Current Fall Cravings}

Here are a few items that are making there way on to my Fall wishlist. I’m excited to start wearing my boots and jackets again, especially this varsity inspired jacket from Club Monaco. I purchased it on my trip to NY and am waiting for that perfect Fall breeze to break it out.

What are you looking forward to wearing this Fall?

Girly Pleats

This weekend Casey and I traveled down south to Santa Barbara for a weekend spent on the beach relaxing. I think it is so important to make a point to unplug and recharge every so often. It was great to experience something new and enjoy the beautiful weekend outdoors. I wore this girly pleated skirt for a dinner out on State street.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you had a great weekend!

Baseball Caps for Fall

I’ve always been a ball cap kind of gal (lets just say my college days didn’t consist of a regular hair blow out every morning). There is something about a ball cap that makes it not only feel comfortable but acceptable, whether you’re having a good or bad hair day. This Fall, baseball caps are appearing more and more trendy with the beautiful wool and chic styles. I purchased this one on my trip to NY a few weeks ago and couldn’t wait to wear it. What I had originally decided to wear it with was changed last minute after I got inspiration from this chic blogger: Damsel In Dior.

What do you think? Will you be trying the baseball cap trend for Fall?

PS. J.Crew is currently having 25% off all shoes,boots,and bags.

Back to School Giveaway

Labor Day is always a little bittersweet because its marks the official end to Summer. I hate saying goodbye to those warm Summer nights, but at the same time I do get excited about the first hint of a cool breeze. In my eyes, the cooler weather can only mean one thing: back-to-school season. Even though its been years since I’ve had to buy new pens, highlighters or notebooks, I still get excited about the thought of buying new clothes for Fall. A staple item that I always look for year after year is the perfect pair of denim jeans. This season I wanted to look for a style that not only suited my body shape, but were different than the other pairs of denim already in my closet.

Insert Articles of Society denim. With it’s headquarters in Los Angeles, Articles of Society adopted a unique role in the premium denim industry as the first brand to offer consumers superior jeans at an affordable price.
