Pearls

A girl has got to have her pearls. They give elegance and class to any style. Wear a long, knotted strand or a cluster of pearls with jeans and a simple t-shirt. Or, a single strand with a shift dress and heels.

Tieks

How have I lived this long without Tieks?!? They are a great new addition to my flats collection and have a few added bonuses! They are very comfy due to extra cushioning in the heel, so you can be on your feet all day and night in them. They fold up into themselves so you can take them with you on the go, or put them in your purse to change into when your heels start to hurt. AND, they have a vegan option! There are so many colors to choose from, it's hard to pick just one. The blue sole adds a fun, signature touch, so whichever you choose, you really can't go wrong!

Black & White (with a pop of color)

You can never go wrong with black and white. They are two staple colors that work so well together and lucky for me they are this season's hottest trend! Add a pop of color with a necklace, purse, shoes, or scarf and bring your outfit to life.

One Dress, Two Ways

I am obsessed with my most recent Anthropologie purchase. I first saw this "Accordion Midi Dress" during Christmas time in black and was waiting for it to go on sale. Unfortunately, I couldn't wait long enough for it to go on sale, but I did wait long enough for it to become available in this beautiful ice blue color! I love the look of this dress. It is both elegant and sophisticated, and you can dress it up or down depending on where you are wearing it. One thing is for sure, whether you wear it casual or dress it up, you will look stunning. Lucky for you, Anthropologie is now having a 20% off sale on all their dresses from now until Sunday!

Jumpsuits

Jumpsuits are an all in one outfit that are not only fashionable, but comfortable! You definitely want to embellish and accessorize with jumpsuits by adding a cute belt, jewlery, or scarf. You can dress it up, like in the photos below, with a slim, vintage gold belt and heels. Or, make it casual with wedges, a scarf and fedora!

Floral In Bloom

These days I am loving floral prints, and with the start of spring tomorrow, what better way to start it off then with a bright pop of color?! Keep it simple by pairing a solid white or chambray with the floral. Shine bright by adding metallic accessories such as a belt, shoes, or jewelry. Or, be daring, and pair two different floral prints together!

Spring Forward

Daylight Savings Time always takes a couple days to get use to, but I always love when it starts staying lighter, later. This week has particularly reminded me that Summer is on its way with the heat we have been having in LA. I found myself thinking about bathing suits and the beach on my drive home today, so I thought I would share a few favorites for this season. I really love the idea of a beautiful one-piece this year and turkish towels!

Love this casual all white look with the black heels

I'm not one to put on heels while I sip coffee in the morning, but if I had these heels, I might consider it! I love the edgy, yet sophisticated look of these. Rock them with jeans, a dress, or a skirt - any way you wear them you're sure to make a statement.  

"Skimmer" Jeans

I'm loving Gap's new skimmer jean. They "skim" just above the ankle and are the perfect go-to for spring! They come in a variety of colors at an affordable price. I recently bought a pair in this mint green color below. Wear them casual with a tank and flip flops, or dress them up with a blazer and loafers.
