Scarves are one of my favorite accessories! During fall and winter, my scarves stay in heavy rotation. Being functional and fashionable, they’re ideal for cool overcast mornings and cold stary nights. Continue reading
Boho in Sacto
It’s Farm-to-Fork Week in Sacramento. Which is the time we celebrate our 7,000 – 8,000 acres of boutique farms, our 50 regional farmers markets, and our restaurants that serve locally grown products. I must admit, I’ve gotten pretty spoiled by the quality of food here. Especially since I receive organic produce from local farms delivered right to my doorstep. So in the spirit of “America’s Farm-to-Fork Capital,” I’m feeling a little boho today. Continue reading
A Classic
I have been crazy busy lately. Between working 6 days a week and trying to enjoy every last drop of summer I am worn out. So before heading back to work tomorrow, I thought I’d have a nice low key day. Which is reflected in today’s casual look: The classic “jeans and white shirt.” Continue reading
Canary Camo
I adore camo pants! They can be dressed up, worn casually, or (my favorite) used as a neutral. Today I decided to dress my cropped camos up a bit by pairing them with a canary yellow sleeveless blouse. I think the colorless stripes created by the ruffles of the blouse next to the rounded pattern of the pants is a fun contrast. Continue reading
Transitions
With temperatures only in the 80’s this week it’s a reminder that fall is right around the corner. During this time of year I love wearing transitional pieces like this indigo blue romper ($9.00). Sans sleeves and cotton fabric make the romper ideal for summer. And as the temperatures drop, adding a blazer or denim jacket and closed toe shoes turn this one piece into the perfect fall fashion. Continue reading
Jonesing
For me, summer is all about wearing vibrant colors. So when I saw Banke’s post of her GORGEOUS purple skirt, I started jonesing for one of my own. Amazingly, I was able to find this rich purple midi for only $7.50! The light-weight flowy skirt was perfect for today’s triple digit temperatures. Continue reading
Just Add Staples
* I apologize for so many seated photos. It was a really windy day and I was trying to limit the Marilyn Monroe moments as much as possible.
I purchased this nude flutter-sleeve blouse a few years ago and it has proven to be a true staple in my wardrobe. Today it is the perfect companion to this fun-seeking skater skirt. The skirt is not only on the lively side, it’s also on the shorter side. Continue reading
Leopard-Print and Lace
My love affair with pencil skirts continues! For months I searched for a lace pencil skirt. This cream one happened to be the only one left in the store. And it was just my size. Must’ve been meant to be. 😉 To create a simple silhouette I paired the skirt with a fitted crew Continue reading
All In The Family
Do you ever have days when you’re feeling kinda blue? Well, today I’m feeling all types of green. With triple digit temperatures and a drought, we’re not seeing our normal amount of green in Northern California. Which is what inspired me to wear my hunter green maxi skirt ($17.99) today. Instead of my usual contrasting colors, I decided to keep it all in the green family. A simple mint green tank top, Continue reading
Chambray, anyone?
I’ve always loved the look of a fitted chambray top. So I was super excited to find this one on sale last fall for $19.99. Pairing the industrial shirt with my obnoxiously girly skater skirt feels like the perfect combination of Rosie Riveter and Raven Wilkinson. For even more femininity, I’m wearing a silver and rhinestone necklace, bracelet, and earrings. Cream
