WEEKEND STYLE

Something about that sunshine that makes me want to wear something cute. This outfit is a go-to for the weekend. It’s easy and on trend. This jacket is currently on sale for a great price! I am in love with this jacket. It’s another closet staple you will be able to wear over and over again. (I sized down to an x-small) I posted about my tips for wearing a utility jacket here. I made sure to add some girlie elements with a ...

CLASSIC LITTLE BLACK DRESS

This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending the “Man of the Year” with my best friend and her amazing family. This is a formal dinner and dance held by the Salesian Boys’ & Girls’ Club in San Francisco. It is also a fund-raising event for the club— there is a silent auction with many different items to bid on. I’ve gone in the past and have always had a fun time! This year it was held at the ...

TRANSITION INTO SPRING

Quick post for you ladies today. This weather has me excited for spring! This thermal top is currently on sale in this ivory color, and regular price in the other few colors. This thermal is lightweight— perfect for transitioning into spring. It is long, even longer in the back so it’s perfect for leggings! I knotted it in the front to shorten it a bit. I also love the back detail of this top. It’s a perfect top to add to ...

PEEP TOE BOOTIES AND A DUSTER

As you can see, I’m loving duster cardigans lately! (See this post!) They add just a little bit of drama to an otherwise simple outfit. I found this duster at FOREVER21 for under $40! What a steal right?! I’m all about adding staples to my closet that will be on heavy rotation throughout the year. This duster is also a great transition piece for all seasons. I paired it with a lace camisole I found in stores at H&M ...

CLASSIC ROCKER TEE

I have always had a thing for graphic tees. Lately I’m loving a classic rocker tee paired with some heavy statement jewelry. Rocker tees are such a classic look, but adding some sort of statement piece takes this look to a whole different level. Since it is just a t-shirt, I added a necklace and a blazer with some heels to amp up this look. This statement necklace is from the BAUBLEBAR collection at Target called SUGARFIX. It’s ...

WEEKEND BLUES

Happy Friday! I’m still fixing a few things on the blog, but for the most part got it up and running. Anyways, I just can’t quit this blue suede jacket! A suede jacket is definitely the perfect closet staple that will last you for years. I love this BLANKNYC one because it’s a moto style jacket and gives off that cool girl vibe. It can also be worn many different ways (see this post). For this look, I layered a hoodie ...

BACKLESS SWEATER

I have a thing for sweaters and knits. I can’t get enough! Although I have way too many, this one is different than any other one I own. The open back gives this sweater a unique look. I kept the rest of my outfit pretty simple. Of course my go-to booties made an appearance. Ladies, these booties are amazing! Hands down my favorite shoe as of late. I wear them all the time! Since my outfit was pretty simple, I added my favorite pair of ...

FAVORITE TUNIC

I’ve never really been into tunics. I think I just couldn’t find one that I absolutely loved. I always felt frumpy or silly wearing such a long top with jeans. Well that’s changed! I stepped out of my comfort zone and found this gorgeous FREE PEOPLE floral tunic on sale at Nordstrom. It’s price matched, so Nordstrom lowers the price and matches it when another store is selling it at a lower price. I love the pale blue ...

TIPS FOR WEARING A UTILITY JACKET

A utility jacket is another closet staple of mine. They come in different styles and a range of colors. However, they are all similar when it comes to styling one. Unfortunately this jacket is no longer available, but I have linked other ones at the bottom. Add a feminine detail your outfit. Whether it be heels, bold lipstick or  jewelry, this will add that little girlie touch. With jewelry you can opt for a statement necklace, or statement ...
