Yellow Sundress kind of day

Saturday was my dad’s birthday and yesterday we had a big family dinner to celebrate. I wanted to share my outfit which I think is perfect for a backyard dinner.

Dress – Loft (on sale now!) / Shoes – Sam Edelman

I love these earrings – I got the blue ones in Italy (back in 2007) and the celtic knot earrings were a gift from my sister back in 2005 (I almost always have those in and so does my sis!)

Clearly a yellow sundress was not just perfect in my mind for the occasion –

Sometimes you show up places and you match your sister! It was just a yellow dress (both from the loft) kind of day! (yellow is also my dad’s favorite color – yellow for the birthday guy!)

My sister and I tend to shop at the same stores and now that we aren’t living together matching happens!  We do have a decent amount of the same pieces so we tend to text each other if we are going somewhere together as to not be totally twinning BUT sometimes you are both feeling the same color! Hope everyone had a lovely weekend!

Spring Colors – mint and pink

It has been a long time since I posted – I was very busy personally during the month of March and April. I will post more about all of this but I was in New Orleans for a bachelorette party, in my dear friends wedding, traveling in Italy ( ! ), attending another friends wedding and since then I have been dog sitting! Phew!

Anyway – I wanted to post about my outfit that I wore last week. While it is officially spring and April – it snowed. Yes snowed. Where I live this is not very normal and while it was only a coating (about 1 inch) near me this crazy weather is driving me nuts! I needed to feel spring and the best way to do that for me is to dress in springy colors.

Top – Loft  Jeans – Gap Flats – JCrew Factory

 

Since it was cold I paired this with my Michael Kors Leather Jacket

Pink Ballet flats from JCrew – I got them for my engagement pictures

I am ready for spring weather to be here but the forecast seems like its going to be nice for now but get cold again. Nevertheless, I am busting out my spring clothes and pretending its spring temps in the meantime!

 

 

 

 

 

Chambray and Cords

I love to style my chambray shirt in a few different ways. One of my favorite ways in winter is with fun cords.

Chambray Top (JCrew Factory), Cords (Loft), Boots (Nine West – old), Glasses (Burberry)

 

This is one of my go to outfits for both work and weekends. It is casual and comfy while also being stylish. 

 

OOTD

I really love the lace short trend that is happening this summer and I also love colorful shorts. Here is how I styled mine today.

Shirt – Loft, Shorts – Loft (similar here forever21), Sunglasses – Ray-Ban wayfarer – the color was limited edition but they always bring out new colors, Bracelets – Alex and Ani, Sandals – Sam Edelman

I love Alex and Ani bracelets.

My toe nails are painted Minted by Revlon.

One of the ways I do my second day hair.

Enjoy!
