Movin on Up

The only thing new in this whole post is....my phone! Hopefully you've noticed that the pictures look at least a tad crisper and truer to life...or at least will  now that I blatantly pointed it out {unless its all in my head.} Other than that, its just some oldies but goodies that I threw together. Other than black and white {obviously} I think nude and black is my favorite color combination.

I found the fur scarf ages ago in San Francisco for under $10, which reminds me that I am long overdue for a trip back. I've always said if I ever leave D.C. I'm moving to San Francisco-- who knows, maybe next trip I won't come back!

Jacket: BCBG // T-shirt: LnA // Skirt: Forever21

Going Global

Between the somewhat tribal print and the South African necklace, I felt a little more worldly and a little less city. Of course, the fact that I had taken the day off contributed to this vacation feel, but I'd like to think the outfit was partly responsible.
I was iffy on drop-waist dresses for a while. Sure they are crazy comfortable but I was worried I would look like I was trying to make a potato sack chic. As always, Tibi came through with this fabulous swingy dress, which hopefully looks as good as it feels! Chalk one up for a new-found open-mindedness (however I still refuse to change my mind on overalls...)
