I thought I’d go for an effortlessly edgy look with this outfit, but it turns out that it was a few weeks too late for warm weather leather.  I wish you could’ve seen how much of a hot mess I was — after walking a few blocks, my skirt was completely turned around and it was so hot and humid, that the faux leather stuck to me like glue.  After hiding behind a wall to adjust (#bloggerproblems), I got my life together and back on track to looking a little less frazzled and a bit more bedazzled.

This past Saturday, Tracy and I took a trip on the Long Island Rail Road over to Belmont Stakes, the third and final leg of the US Triple Crown (look at me pretending to know something about horse racing!).  It was a fabulous escape from the city, complete with big hats, sundresses and mimosas.  I couldn’t have asked for a better time — minus the fact that I lost $11 in bets (high roller, I know).

summer sequins.

Wonder snakeskin skinny cuff; Zara snakeskin and neon heels with buckles

There’s something about a touch (or punch) of sequin that adds instant glam to any outfit.  Wearing sequins during the day is one of my favorite ways to combine casual and chic pieces.  Because even though I don’t have any special occasions lined up, I won’t let that stop me from sprinkling in a little sparkle.
