June Gloom

Every year in LA we have the dreaded June Gloom.  While it hasn't been too bad this time, we've still been exposed to the grey.  So I figured, why not do do a post embracing this universally flattering color.  Grey + white stripes are a favorite combo of mine and a constant in the collections year after year. To incorporate a little sunshine, my go-to accent color is yellow. 



Copy Cat

I spotted this Mark & James by Badgley Mischka dress and thought it was just the cutest thing.  So fun and flirty, perfect for a party.  As much as I would love to snag this cutie, the $375 price tag deters me, as I don't need another dress. However, I quickly realized this ensemble would be easy enough to re-create with two separate pieces. Bonus: more mixing and matching options with other clothes you already own.

INC $59.50, J.Crew $78.00, Samantha Dru $121.00, Karen Kane $55.30
ASOS $89.65, Forever 21 $19.80, Forever 21 $14.80, Bailey 44 $59.00

Cute As Can Be

Apparently I have a thing for ruffles right now.  Everyday on my way home from work I pass an American Apparel billboard with images of this frilly little number and always want to go try it on.  I don't know if I could pull it off, but I sure do think it's darling.

Just Browsing...

I popped into Urban Outfitters today and had my eye on the following items.  Sadly, none of them made their way home with me....this time.




Lucca Couture Jacquard Print Peplum Blouse 

Deena &Ozzy Ankle Wrap Sandal 

Kimchi Blue Knit Feather Skirt  


I fell in loooove with this dress and all of its ruffly goodness. Unfortunately I can't really justify its over-$300 price tag.
 

Bold Blossoms

Florals are a popular trend this season, as I guess they most always are, especially come spring and summer. Lately though, I've been eyeing larger prints with vibrant palettes, over the smaller, sweeter buds in pastel shades. More edgy, than sweet and ultra girlie. Here are some picks I would love to pluck for myself.
