Cool, Collected & Casual

One || Two || Three || Four || Five || Six || Seven

Hey all! I hope you’re having a great week so far! So, I found these shoes from J. Crew’s new collection and I love them SO much! Isn’t that design incredible? I tried to build this look around them. The outfit is a bit eclectic, but I love how the pieces fell together. Oh and by the way, drawstring pants? Yes, please. Always.
Topped off with some gorgeous and inexpensive jewelry, you have a casual (but put together) go-to look. Hope you enjoy it! Have a great Wednesday!

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is about halfway over and I continue to find new products that I love! I know that I certainly shouldn’t buy them all, but I thought that maybe you’d find two or three things that you’d want as well. My favorite purchase so far? Those adorable “Eat Cake for Breakfast” dessert plates! The plates are utterly fantastic. They are the perfect size and the colors are delightful. I also picked the watch in the tortoise shell & gold. I love the combo! I hope you enjoy the second round of picks. Also, have a great Friday and of course, weekend! 

Styled: A Patterned Maxi Skirt

Maxi skirt: Similar
Let’s discuss this maxi, shall we? Have you ever gained 5 pounds and realized that none of your clothes fit exactly right? Sure, they still fit, but they just don’t fall right. Well, this maxi skirt has been such a glorious addition to my wardrobe as I fix the effects of our recent laziness. Here’s a hint: don’t eat British candy while watching 90210 with your husband for days. Ha!  The fit is ideal–there is an elastic fold-over waist–and the pattern? So fun! There were so many different colors and they’re pretty inexpensive. Have a great Tuesday!

Style Inspiration: Classy Kate

Hey, hey! I can’t believe another week is almost over and the royal baby is still not here! I’m obviously completely impatient, but I truly cannot wait. I — along with the rest of the world — am thrilled to welcome the little prince or princess to this fun planet. My friends and I have been discussing every aspect of the baby’s arrival for weeks now. Boy or girl? What will they name it? Will they be the coolest parents ever? I cannot wait for all the festivities to begin! 
Throughout her pregnancy, Kate has been the picture of classy perfection. Classic patterns and fabrics, princess-appropriate hemlines and stylish accessories have continually proven to be trendsetting and well, utterly fabulous. From Topshop to Emilia Wickstead, this lovely lady can sell out anything she wears. She’s easily one of my favorite sources of style inspiration!
