Anchors Away

Like tutus, gold chains and cutoff shorts, striped tops are one of those things I constantly accumulate whether I need them or not {though in my head, I ALWAYS do.} I like that this one is just cropped enough so it works with a high waisted skirt, but not so much that I'll be at risk of creating a scandal at work.

Necklace: J. Crew {similar at Baublebar} // Bracelet: J. Crew // Nail Polish: Essie 'Pearly White'

As if you couldn't tell from my instagram, my pinterest, or of course my blog, I can't stop loving/wanting/buying white dresses. Yes, its of course somewhat seasonally inspired, but that can't just be it. Its summer every year {shocking I know} yet I've never been this into it. Eh, no one is complaining except my bank account...

Looking forward to enjoying this {finally} wonderful weather, quality girl time, the usual bubbly, reading and finally back to a little cooking. Yes, cooking WITHOUT my microwave. Its a new era people....

Hope you have a wonderful, relaxing...and/or exciting...weekend!

Splurge VS Steal: The Little White Shirtdress

I have been absolutely addicted {no really, I have a problem} to little white dresses. I've been eyeing the splurge version since I first saw it, but knew that given my klutziness, spending that much would be silly. I'd either spill on it, or just forever live in fear of spilling and only eat and drink white/clear things.

Magically though, I stumbled upon this version at Asos. Of course, its not QUITE as amazing, but its pretty close and for 1/3 the price!

Which one is your favorite?

Color Crush

I got this dress years back at one of my favorite stores in San Francisco, Ambiance. It was blocks from where my parents used to live and always had a great selection of unique but affordable pieces. Have yet to find somewhere quite the same here...

Most importantly though, I FINALLY got a new couch. Aside from being way more grown-up, its also much better for the outfit shots. Not as good as ACTUAL photos outside {or at least minus the fake walls} but its a start.

Just wanted to pop by to wish everyone a Happy 4th of July!

No huge plans for me, just some patriotic drinking of bubbly and spending time with friends, but I couldn't be more excited!

I was actually feeling a little lazy and thinking about skipping this post...until I saw this photo. I mean COME ON. I can't possibly put into words how perfectly styled this is, how much I love the look, or just how happy the colors make me. Not too likely I can pull this off, but I think I will try anyway...even if its only in the comfort of my own home!

After two weeks of no running I am going a little batty, but man has my closet gotten some new friends. Totally not needed as usual, but I've gotta fill my free time somehow right? Ok yes, perfect time to finally sign up for the French classes/drawing classes/learn to cook etc. Eh, maybe next random injury...

Hope you have a great weekend!
