Superwoman

This may just be the most magical piece of clothing I own. Its a jacket, a dress, a vest, and even though its not my style, the removable top part can be worn as a bolero. I started the day with sleeves and removed them as it went on. The closest I'll get to a quick change superhero! Seriously, why aren't more clothes like this? Practical yes, but so fun too! Its sold out, but check it out in all its glory over on The Outnet.

Convertible Trench: Elizabeth & James {sadly can't find another convertible one, but for a dress, try this or this. For the jacket, I love my J. Crew 'Icon' trench.}

Watch: Michael Kors // Rings: Vintage, Ambiance in San Francisco
Nail Polish: Essie 'Find Me an Oasis'

Bag: J. Crew // Shoes: Seychelles // Toenail Polish: Essie 'She's Pampered'

Business Blues

I got this dress back when my parents were living in San Francisco and there were cute little stores on every corner {among other wonderful things!} While I adore it, the fit felt a little off when I tried it on recently-- too loose/long for play but not quite right for work. So I went for my two favorite ways to transform anything-- layering and belting. Boom! Like a while new dress. Oh and there are pockets, so pretty much I've fallen back in love with it...

Time for the Tropics

No, I'm not on my way to an island getaway that I somehow forgot to mention (I wish), but I am loving the tropical print on my skirt. After seeing palm prints everywhere this season, I was on a mission to make it my own, just at a much more reasonable price point.

Now I could have scoured the internet and stores alike for hours on end (as if I haven't done that before), but instead went straight to ebay. I can't even list all of the amazing finds I've scored on there, from vintage rings to new with tags Tibi! This little number popped right up-- Ann Taylor of all places and under $10! Done and done.

Hopefully it will help tide me over until I DO finally go on the tropical vacation of my dreams...

Blazer: Marc Jacobs // Blouse: Elizabeth & James // Skirt: Ann Taylor {similar or try shorts}

French Lesson

For some reason, this outfit makes me feel like a 1960's French schoolgirl. I guess the mind works in mysterious ways (especially mine!) While I hate that its cold enough to wear a wool jacket, I do love that I get to bring this baby back (last seen here.)

I think it goes without saying that I love leather (and faux!) in any form, so when I saw this dress on Gilt I snapped it right up.

Jacket: J. Crew {love this Alice & Olivia} // Leather Panel Dress: Renvy {similar shift version here}

 // Blouse: Elizabeth and James

Necklace: Etsy 

Bracelets: Gold bangle from my parents {similar} // J. Crew Golden Gears


Hopefully this will be the last double jacket post...
