Today’s outfit is what I called my “toned down” look.  I started with black and brown basics, because they always makes for an easy foundation, but it just wouldn’t be me without a few pops of color.  A neon cardigan, a bright clutch, and bold nail polish and there you have it — an outfit that’s perfect to usher in the weekend.  Happy Friday everyone!

I’m usually all about my mixed prints, but today, I decided to pile on a single print: stripes.  The fundamentals are the same: make sure that the prints are similar in color (here, navy and white) and proportion.  It’s a fresh take on one of my favorite ways to dress up prints — a little more streamlined, but still just as fun.  What do you think of the stripes on stripes action?

one love.

If you haven’t noticed by now, Facebook and Twitter have been flooded with pink and red equal signs in support of marriage equality as the Supreme Court hears oral arguments over California’s Prop. 8 ban on same-sex marriage.  I don’t like getting up on soapboxes (I’ll leave the peeps on my Facebook newsfeed), but I’m proud to show my support in any way I can, even if it’s something as simple as wearing red and spreading the word.  It’s about sharing the love — and that’s something I can get behind.
