Happy Little Accidents

Since I've already done a post on this dress before, I wasn't planning on doing another one...but then some of my random insta-shots actually turned out kind of fun {at least in my head...} Hey, at least I'm trying new things, right??

Dress: Trina Turk {try this or this} // Cuff: J. Crew {try this or this}

Earrings: Baublebar 'Resin Grotto Drops'

{Outtake from trying to photograph the earrings, but my hair color looks way better than in real life, so the evidence must be kept!}

Sunglasses: Asos // Sandals: Sigerson Morrison // Toenail Polish: Essie 'She's Pampered'

Business Safari

Not only does this dress have the jewelry built in {I always love a good two in one}, but it has puff sleeves and my ultimate love, POCKETS. For some reason it makes me always feel very boardroom meets
safari-- neither of which I was heading to of course, but I like the vibe regardless.

Dress: Milly {old, try this or this}

{how great is this neckline???}

Nail Polish: Essie 'Where's My Chauffeur' // Cuff: J. Crew

Blazer: Kulson // Sunglasses: Karen Walker 'Number One' // Shoes: Pour La Victoire

Retro in Red

I've always been a sucker for anything legit vintage, or just vintage looking/inspired. I stumbled upon this dress at Anthropolgie on crazy sale and couldn't resist. Plus, the buttons means that I can wear it to work...or strategically unbutton a few and wear it out, making it semi-convertible clothing {which I also love.}


Dress: Anthropologie {similar} // Blazer: Kulson {try this or this}

Earrings: Gemma Redux {love these Baublebar ones} // Cuff: J. Crew {try this or this}

Nail Polish: Butter London 'Fiver'


Bag: J. Crew // Heels: Chanel

Totally Tortoise

This is not even close to the most tortoise I could cram into one post to truly show my love (er, obsession???) of it, but I think you still get the idea. Its classy and sophisticated, but with a healthy dose of unique and retro. Plus, it goes with EVERYTHING, so how could I not love it?

The same love affair could be said of the wonderful sweater dress and the flat riding boot, but nobody likes a broken record. So-- they rock. Really, what more proof do you have then below? Anything that is both so comfortable and appropriate to leave the house in is incredible.


Dress: Gap {try this, also love this Tibi} // Long Sleeve Shirt: Isli // Jacket: Asos {almost identical}

Necklaces: J. Crew // iPhone Case: Casemate

{details}

Watch: Michael Kors 'Oversized Runway' // Ring: Ambiance // Nail Polish: Essie 'Blanc'

Boots: J. Crew {similar though you can never go wrong with Frye!}

The Little White Dress

I love white. Its crispness, boldness, and of course, it shows off even the slightest of a tan. You know what I don't love? Spending the entire day in fear of spilling all over it. Since I can't seem to stop buying white clothes though, I figured I may as well wear them. Plus, when its supposed to feel like 100 degrees, there's nothing like a little white dress to keep you cool(er)!

For once, nothing I'm wearing though is new, perhaps as penance for my Clover Canyon and Equipment mini-spree lately?


Jacket: Generra {try this or this} // Dress: Zara {this Tibi is perfection}
