SoCal weather has been unseasonably warm.  (I know, you’re sick of hearing that).  Over the weekend I tried to break out my sweaters and jackets and every time I ended up sweating through my wool (or leather) and regretting the decision.  So as much as I want to show you my best cold weather get-ups, it’s just too darn hot!

Thankfully I have a collection of transitional dresses to get me through these weird temps.  This polka dot shirt dress couldn’t be any more classic, or flattering.  It reminds me of something Audrey Hepburn would wear.  The a-line silhouette and built-in belt make it the perfect choice for any body type – athletic, curvy, petite.

You may remember these metallic silver booties from last season.  Remarkably they are still available and on sale!  They also come in gold and pink (I may just have to snag another pair).  I’ve also linked some similar options below under $100.

As we get further into winter – and closer to the holidays, yay! – I’d love to hear what kind of content you’d like to see from me.  Each year I share Holiday Gift Guides and outfit inspiration for what to wear to holiday parties, but I’d love to hear who you’re shopping for and what events you’re attending so I can help make your holidays a breeze.

Let me know in the comments what kind of holiday content you’d like to see!  And as always, if you ever have any styling questions, you know how to find me (wink).

Sandal season

April 24, 2017

We had glorious weather in Southern California this past weekend – the beaches were packed and I spent the majority of my time outside.  Whenever the weather starts to turn warm, it’s no surprise I reach for easy, comfortable pieces.  This wide leg jumpsuit looks like a maxi dress, but has all the comfort of wearing pants.  It was the perfect choice – and oh-so-fun – for walking around downtown after a quick stop at one of my favorite cafes.

I recently read an article about the items of clothing you no longer buy when you hit your 30’s.  Stilettos topped the list and I have to say I completely follow suit.  These days I’m all about flats or low block heels.  For summer, I was looking for a good pair of leather sandals and came across designer Katharine Page.  Using sustainable manufacturing and ethical business practices – key elements for me when choosing clothing and accessories – her sandals are inspired by equestrian sport.  To play up this detail, I paired them with a horsebit leather belt to cinch the waist and create a nice contrast to the voluminous jumpsuit.  The criss-cross linen straps look great with dressier and casual outfits alike, and the padded insole is super comfortable.  They’ll definitely be a great staple for the fun weekend trips I have planned this summer!
