Creature of Comfort

March 19, 2014

Let’s be real: I’m usually the kind of girl that prioritizes comfort over appearance. At any given time, I’ve got a pair of leopard flats in my bag and a couple of booties under my desk. I love wearing heels, but I think the person who invented them is the devil. Add the fact that it’s Wednesday, and I can probably guarantee you that my waistline involves a bit of elastic.

So I haven’t really painted a good picture of myself, but I promise there’s a moral to this story. It used to be that style and comfort were mutually exclusive, but a LOFT’s newly reimagined lounge wear begs to different as it branches off into its own identity known as Lou & Grey.
I scooped up a few new pieces from the line (including this sweater, moto jacket and tee dress) and I can’t tell you how obsessed I am with them. Dressing up on Wednesdays just got a whole lot easier.

Three Years

March 14, 2014

Three years ago today, I started this blog. I bought a DSLR, threw together my first outfit (mixed prints nonetheless!) and dragged my boyfriend to the park to snap a few photos. I had no idea what I was doing.
Not to mention, I was incredibly shy about blogging when it first launched. There I was, in my second year of law school, planning outfits instead of writing outlines. The worlds didn’t seem to mix, but I put myself out there in front of my friends, classmates and anyone else with internet access. And I have never looked back.Now my blog is an extension of me and I couldn’t be happier. I would say it’s a labor of love, but it doesn’t feel like labor ever. I blog because I want to inspire others, but also because it inspires me. It drives me to experiment with my personal style, to experience new things and to go beyond my comfort zone. This week, I’ve been looking back on how my style has evolved over the past three years, but what astounds me more is how much I’ve personally evolved since starting this blog. I can genuinely say that I’m more confident, more colorful, more curious and hell of a lot happier for it. Most of all, I’m so proud to have friends like you following along! Here’s to many more stylish years to come! xo

Bit of Blue

March 12, 2014

I’m sharing my last batch of photos from my trip to San Diego two weeks ago. Spring was already in full swing back west, which meant driving with the windows down and dining al fresco. Weather like that called for a bold colored skirt, bare legs and a big ol’ smile, because it doesn’t get much better than that.
