Saved by the Bell in Motel!

Although I may be swimming in this denim jacket, I love it. Big? Yes. But perfect for pairing with ultra mini skirts and dresses. When I first put it on, I felt as if I were borrowing it straight from the eighties. From Zack Morris to Molly Ringwald (See: Pretty in Pink). The acid wash adds edge. And, the kitschy floral print on this skirt from Motel just seemed right. Also, as if you couldn't already tell ;) I'm in love with everything red lately.

P.S. Stay Tuned for a Giveaway soon!!

I apologize if I am sharing more photos than usual for today's outfit post. I didn't have as much time today to "narrow down" the lot. Hope that's OK? Well, here's to Monday and slightly cooler weather. I can already start to feel the fingertips of Fall. I was actually able to wear a blazer today. What are you up to this week? I'm in and out of meetings all week, and an impromptu trip to Boston. Just for the day, nevertheless very excited about it! I wish Alex could come with me but he has to work. Maybe next time?

Do you like my mix of hot pink and bright blue today?

That 70's Show

WILDFOX COUTURE Flower Top, JET shorts, JESSICA SIMPSON Dany platforms (in grey here)

I finally got the new baby of the family to settle down. Max, the little black kitten, is fitting in nicely with Scout and Sweety. I had to work yesterday, for most of the afternoon. Then I visited my parents' place to play with Max. My Mom helped me wrangle him up for some photos. Then Max and I snuggled up to watch That 70's Show.

How was your weekend?

What I Wore Yesterday...

Havaianas Alpargatas, Wildfox Tee, Bebe Skinny Jeans similar here, Essie red nail polish

Since yesterday was my day off, I dressed in neutral blues and kept things casual in skinny jeans and alpargatas. I ran a few errands and then stopped by my local Borders to check out the sales, unfortunately all the good stuff was already gone. It makes me sad to see Borders go out of business. That was always my favorite bookstore, aside from Waldenbooks.

The Relic, Butter Neon nail polish

Lately, I've been reading a lot of mysteries and semi-horror books. Just finished The Relic. I had never read it before and thoroughly enjoyed every twist and turn and dark shadow lurking behind every corner. I've also taken to watching Mysteries on TV. See: Monk, X-Files and Alfred Hitchcock.

The Gates

Modekungen denim shirt, Malibu Native Heartbreaker Tee, JET jean shorts, CONVERSE sneakers, MARC JACOBS Gold Watch

Most of you probably don't know that I wear contacts. And that before bed, I hang around the house in glasses. This a debut of sorts.



Lately, I've been in love with Netflix. Randomly finding great TV. Now, I'm really getting into Mad Men. Just started watching it this week after tweeting about feeling like the only person on Earth not tuning in.. Don Draper.. sigh. I love the sixties clothing and how adorable the men all look in slick hair and skinny ties. And of course, how the series is mainly set in Manhattan, New York. My favorite city at the moment.

What are you watching? What do you recommend for me to watch? :)

Red Pleated Maxi Dress

LoveClothing Red Pleated Maxi Dress, L.A.M.B. Sandals, CHANEL bag, RAY BAN Wayfarer Sunglasses

I felt as if I had stepped into a modern day Cinderella fairytale when I wore this dress to lunch today. The length was so fun to swish and twirl around in. The on trend pleating and color divine, I really can't wait to wear this dress again soon. The coral adorned bracelet on my arm is courtesy of Bevello, a local Boutique in Raleigh. And finally, the debut of my new, vintage Chanel bag from Adore. This beautiful Chanel bag has many stories to tell (and share) with me...

What are your plans for the rest of the day? :)

Come and Find Me

True Religion denim Jacket, French Connection dress, Jessica Simpson Dany platforms, Vintage Chloe Sunglasses

This Summer I worked on a really cool project with True Religion Jeans and Glamour magazine. These photos are just a Sneak Peek.



One question I get asked a lot when I meet my readers is what inspires me? Which blogs do I like to read? Well, I am very much inspired by music. There is something about hearing a beautiful melody that simply puts me in a great mood. I'm also inspired by Old Hollywood films. And to be honest, I can spend hours flipping through the pages of ELLE, VOGUE, and Harper's BAZAAR. (See Video.) I also have to make a daily stop at these blogs: TWIN FASHION, Little Plastic Horses and Fashion Gone Rogue - for model candids, street style and general Fashion inspiration, straight from the catwalk, and off..

Hope you're off to a great start this Monday! ❤

Coca Cola, Color Blocking and Harry Potter?

ASOS Bright Yellow Blouse, Shopbop Orange Skirt, Golden Classic Neon Green Watch, Nixon Neon Orange Watch, The Leather Satchel Co. Yellow bag, Nanda Pink Sandals

What do these things have in common? You must be asking yourselves that right now. Well, I just saw the final installment of the Harry Potter series today. I dressed up in exuberantly bright colors (to counteract my sadness over this finally coming to an end.) I cry at commercials, mind you. I came deftly prepared, with tissues and dark sunglasses. The latter, especially, came in handy once exiting the theatre. No one was the wiser.



So, here I am, color blocking once again. I tend to keep a small percentage of my look neutral, when color blocking. [See shoes.] Otherwise, it's an explosion of bright color, which I blissfully wore to see the film in. As for the soda, I like to drink caffeine to stay alert and on top of every word. Plus, it's also fun collecting glass Coca Cola bottles.



I loved the movie. And find that it ended exactly the way it needed to. And, closing with John Williams's infamous theme no less.If you haven't seen it yet.. go, go, go! It might be your last chance to catch this epic magic on screen... My favorite character this time around? Neville Longbottom.
