Fancy Friday

{Nicole Warne}

I'm not sure if the Prada lip print started my obsession, but I've certainly loved clothes with lip prints ever since then {and one day I WILL own the Prada lip skirt....} Not everyone can pull this look over, but Nicole {as always} absolutely kills it. Baby blue heels and delicate earrings are the only accessories needed...um and killer abs of course. Definitely adding this to my closet lust list...

Not that you would know it from social media, but people are just a tad excited that spring is finally here. Oh and hey there are cherry blossoms too! Ok ok enough sarcasm. Even my normal sarcastic streak is tamed by the warmer temperatures. Feeling a little under the weather {again...grrrr} so nothing crazy planned, but I do hear a little bubbly calling my name...

Have a fantastic weekend!

Sequins, Sequins, Everywhere

I joke about how I can't stop buying sequins, but I legit don't seem to be able to stop! Need proof? Just look at this, this and this post for starters! They not only turn a seemingly blah outfit into something infinitely more fun, they also just make me happy. Cheaper addiction than say...sports cars...right?

Tuxedo Time

I bought this tuxedo jacket on a whim years ago, not knowing if I would wear it a lot but loving how elegant it was so much that I didn't care. Well, my somewhat impulsive and indulgent purchase now could have cost $1,000 and it STILL would have paid for itself. Luckily of course, it did not. Even I have my limits guys {so I say now....} This year, I may or may not have also acquired a white one from Target and a longer black one from J. Crew....

While I usually throw it on as a perfect lightweight going out jacket, sometimes its the perfect little something to perk up a work outfit. Blazers are nice and all but I just can't stand being head to conservative unless its truly unavoidable. I always feel much more put together wearing it, and in the morning when there is never enough time, that's crucial!
