last hurrah.

September 9, 2013

I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but I’m starting to switch my wardrobe from summer to fall. The first things to go into hibernation: bright pastels and overtly spring-ish floral prints.

Wonder leopard calf hair skinny cuff

While I was saying farewell to a few of my seasonal faves, I found this coral dress that I hadn’t worn since last June. I couldn’t bear the thought of waiting another year to wear it again, so I mixed it in with a few of my fall staples for one last floral hurrah.

Wanna give your summer frock a little bit more longevity? There’s nothing a military jacket, tortoise/leopard jewelry, and one amazing cognac tote bag can’t fix!

now & later: sam edelman wedges.

July 30, 2013

Sam Edelman Sutton Wedges — $87.99 (on sale!)

Whenever I go shopping, I make it a rule to only buy pieces that I can imagine myself wearing in at least two or three different outfits — a standard that helps me to prevent impulse purchases and saves me from buyer’s remorse later down the road.

Well, when I saw these these Sam Edelman wedges on sale, I immediately conjured up two different outfits: the first look still very much in a bright, summer mindset and the second being slightly toned down for fall. I love the looks equally and have pretty much convinced myself that these wedges pass the test! Leopard, after all, is a neutral. Which look is your favorite?

rompin’ season.

June 6, 2013

I’ve been gushing about my excitement for summer since before spring even hit. And while it’s definitely my favorite season for adventures and travel, it’s also what I like to call rompin’ season! It’s been awhile, but I think you all know my affinity for this one piece wardrobe solution (seen here, here, here and here). I scooped up another one to add to my ever-growing collection and plan on living in this all summer long.
