a beautiful heart.

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Ainslee of A Beautiful Heart!  Besides being a fellow Wildcat and hailing from the same hometown, we immediately bonded over our mutual love of fashion blogs, J.Crew, and all things sparkly.  She’s the sweetest girl and was gracious enough to let me parade her gorgeous handmade jewelry all over my blog (seen here, here, and here).  Check out her lovely Etsy shop and let me know what some of your favorite pieces are!

Today, I’m dressing up a regular ol’ t-shirt or dressing down a bright, neon skirt. However you prefer to look at it, I’m digging the mix and match of casual and chic.

sunset shades.

While I was driving from Phoenix to Tucson last week (see Tuesday’s post), I was inspired by the rich colors lighting the sky.  There’s seriously no sunset like an Arizona sunset.  It’s a gorgeous mixture of deep purple, orange, pink, and gold — a combination I just had to integrate into today’s outfit.

Side note: my watch is utterly inaccurate — it’s been on EST since my trip to NYC last August and the date is way off.  Just an indication on how often I actually rely on my watch for the time.  Ha!  Happy weekend everyone!
