I love this color block skirt from DVF! The garden green print is so fun and easy. When I put it on I immediately felt beautiful and confident. I love how Diane von Furstenberg designs with the hope to symbolize power and independence for women starting with her wrap dress and now through her complete ready to wear collection of beautifully feminine clothing. I have been a fan of DVF for over a decade. She was one of the first designers I started wearing and for good reason. I love what her brand stands for and I love how her clothes ... Read more...
Red, White, and Sheer
Stripes are an easy go to. There is just something so classic about stripes. And when they're on a sheer blouse also something so feminine. I've had this blouse for a while and worn it a number of ways (here and here). Because the blouse is sheer there are so many ways to wear it; tucked into a high-waist skirt and a bralette underneath, wear over a maxi dress, layer a tank top underneath with a pair of skinny jeans, or like here layering a white crop top and pairing with different textures like this knit skirt and leather jacket. ...

Maxing out with DSquared2
Lately I have been maxing out on my weekday work life/personal life balance (or lack there of) and come the weekend am ready to power down, relax, and work on the house; hence the inconsistency in blog posts recently. And while doing nothing now and again can be amazing for the body and soul, that's not really something I'm good at nor do I feel like I have time for that. So on a rare weekend when our plans shift and heading up to wine country for the weekend is no longer an option in between our list of must-do's Justin and I took a ... Read more...
Flirty in Fringe
There is just something about fringe that gets me. It's so flirty without even trying. A fringe skirt is just begging to spin and twist in. It gives me an excuse to dance around even if no one else is. I've wanted a fringe skirt for a long time and I'd been eyeing this leather one from BCBG but just couldn't pull the trigger on it. Then I saw it on a number of other fashion bloggers I know and follow, they of course looked great in it, and decided I couldn't also have the same skirt, though now I wanted it even more. So when I spotted ... Read more...
Shades of Green
When I feel like I'm running out of clothes in my closet, or that I've been wearing the same pieces over and over again I try and mix things up and wear combinations that I haven't tried yet. I've worn this skirt from the Altuzarra for Target collaboration a number of times but never as an outfit with all different shades of green. I love pattern mixing and this new scarf I received from a colleagues recent trip to India was the perfect addition. I love mixing animal print with floral patterns and this green snakeskin skirt worked ... Read more...
