Mash Up

J.Crew Fluted Skirt in Neon Poppy

Every now and then, I’ll put together an ensemble that I get really amped about.  It’ll start with one standout piece like a neon coral skirt and just build from there.  From a silky black tank to a gold chain necklace to a pair of leopard calf hair heels — it’s like all my favorite top hits mixed into one monster mashup.  Every outfit should feel this good.

Striped Skirt

Summer Striped Pencil Skirt

These days, a-lines dominate my wardrobe, but there was a time in my life when pencil skirts commanded their fair share of closet real estate.  This was especially true while working in conservative offices, where black, gray and navy reigned supreme.  I’m in a more creative environment now, but I still have a soft spot for the classic cut.  Just serve it up with a side of summery stripes and the pencil skirt will always have a place in my heart.

Favorite Summer Essentials

dress | sunglasses | cuff | necklace | iPhone case | silver sandals
rings | black sandals | crossbody bag | bracelet | backpack

I’m entering my early late twenties next week, so I rounded up a few thing that will hopefully help ease the pain — after all, there’s nothing a shiny new cuff can’t fix!  But in all honesty, I’m not the kind of person that dreads getting older because every year is better the next.  My style evolves, my interests shift and new adventures await.  I’ve been all about biking around the city lately, so backpacks and crossbody bags are at the top of my radar.  Comfortable sandals are a close second and I’m actually loving this modern twist on Birkenstocks.  As for everything else on the list?  It’s my party and I can shop if I want to!
