Three Years

J.Crew Etta Sequin Pumps 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.
J.Crew Etta Sequin PumpsNot 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.Black & White Stripes / Red Full Midi SkirtNow 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.Black Crystal Necklace & Striped Shirt 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 J.Crew Etta Sequin Pumps Skirt The Rules Red Midi Skirt 7

Rewind & Remix: A Three Year Retrospective (Part 2)

Gingham Shirt & Floral Dressyear one | shirt | dress | bracelet | bag | shoes

On Tuesday, I picked an outfit from each year of blogging to compare how my style has evolved over the years.  In honor of my blog turning three tomorrow, I’m doing it again!  #TBT anyone?

Let’s start with one of my favorite mixed print combos of all time: gingham and floral!  I’d still rock the duo today, but would probably pare down on the color palette.   Pinks and nudes make for a sophisticated color scheme, but the prints are just as fresh.

In year two, I fell in love with the jean jacket (I had never own one before that!) and was throwing it on over every dress in my closet.  I’m still in love with the denim topper, but I want to try my hand at a bright white jacket this spring.

And finally, I wore this bright and/or blinding number in year three.  I can’t wait to bust out the neons again this spring/summer, but am leaning towards tangerine as my weapon of choice.

If you haven’t figured it out by now, there are a few things about me that will always be constant: my panache for prints and my love for color.  But beyond that, my personal style is always changing and I can’t wait to see how it transforms for years to come.  Thanks for following along!

Banana Republic Shirt & SkirtI’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.
