Cobalt

Kicking off the week with about 500 shades of blue, my favorite shade: cobalt (see here, here & here).  I wore this outfit recently to my cousin's baby shower to celebrate their new baby boy bundle of joy...  I thought the blue hues were very fitting.

the LBD

Ever have writer's block when it comes to getting dressed?   Enter the LBD.  It never fails.  It slims, it flatters + it goes with nearly anything: flats, sandals, heels, leather jackets, blazers... the list goes on.

I bought this LBD last year in the Savvy department at Nordstrom.  It is now sold out, but there are many other options out there.  Happy Styling.

Lime + Leather

If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen this picture.  I have been planning/ dreaming of this outfit for quite some time now.  The clean, simple lines of this blouse pair perfectly with the subtle laser-cut floral details of these faux leather shorts.  As for accessories, I kept it pretty minimal with gold accents + a leopard print clutch, but you could easily wear silver tones and a bright pink handbag... I'm thinking I'll wear this blouse next with a bright crossbody + white broken-in boyfriend jeans?  The options are {almost} endless.  Happy Styling.

Fall First

[ leggings: Top Shop ]  [ blouse: Vince ]  [ wedges: DVF ]  [ purse worn as clutch: Tory Burch similar ]  [ shades: Burberry ]  [ watch + ring: Michael Kors ] 

So, this blouse.  A fall first + perfect for date night or dinner with the girls.  Believe it or not, I bought this Vince blouse over the summer  [on the clearance rack]  at TJMaxx and I've been anxiously waiting for its debut.  The burnt color is very fitting for fall, if you ask me.  Pair it with a pair of (faux) leather leggings, my favorite wedges, some rose gold accessories, and voila, the perfect early fall look.  Any suggestions how I should style this blouse with jeans?  Skinny or boyfriend?  With a pair of pointy toe pumps.. thoughts?  Thanks for stopping by.
