Oh, denim jackets, how we love thee. It is our go-to fabric; our fashion friend; our wardrobe staple; a classic. I love the slightly slouchy fit and worn-in feel of oversized jean jacket. The distressed details offers a fresh spin on an old summer classic, and it can be paired with anything making it a must have piece. It might be borrowed from the boys, but it looks better on us!
Look #1: denim on denim
This ain't your average double denim. I love the look of this embroidery skirt, peak of lace bralette, paired with the oversized denim jacket.
Go for palm print this summer to add something exotic to your style game - just add a white shirt, oversized denim, a pair of chic shoes and you're set!
The oversized denim is light weight, perfect for traveling. I paired with a light weight wide leg pants, tank top, and leopard sandals for comfy chic look.
Happy Monday, babes! I love starting the week with something bring and colorful! This ruffled off-the-shoulder top is too cute to pass up, and comes with a matching neck scarf, so I don't have to think twice about accessories!
I found it on Spring, a site I have recently discovered and have fallen in love with! It is basically a concierge for thousands of amazing brands so we can buy from one site instead of having to go on a million different websites. Needless to say, I have discovered so many awesome brands that I would have never known about. The best part is that they offer FREE shipping and returns (which is the only way I will shop online!)
Here are some other off-the-shoulder tops I love from Spring:
I was excited to see the brand Mango because I love their clothes especially their denim. I find them to be very great quality with an affordable price point. These Mango denim have a more exaggerated flare leg. The cropped style is perfect for warm days, and the front slit is a bit more interesting than the typical capri pant. It is currently on sale and runs true to size. Some of my favorite Mango denim:
I finished the look with Rag & Bone ankle-strap sandals, which have all the comfort of a flat style, but with a little extra lift thanks to a thick jute platform.

Hooray! It’s finally here! Summer Solstice officially kicks off Summer in a week (June 20th)! Which means longer days and more fun in the sun -- and more time to show off our summer threads!
Happy to partner up with Nordstrom again to help me find the perfect going-out summer pieces to add to my wardrobe. I love summer fashion. The colors are brighter, the fabrics are softer and the overall look is just so much more fun! For me, summer is the season of rompers. The easy-to-wear summer staple comes in all shapes and forms, from girly ruffles to off-the-shoulder, to fun whimsical prints and colors. The ruffled tier romper I am wearing is so vibrant and flattering! It hides all the problem areas but shows off just the right amount of skin. If you're not a big fan of rompers, this print also comes in maxi dress or top.
Below are some of my favorite romper options that will get you through every rendezvous, cocktail hour, and rooftop parties that are light and playful and looking très chic:
Now on to other can't-do-without summer wardrobe essentials because getting Summer chic is as much about accessories and shoes as the outfit itself. My favorite easy add-ons are a good woven clutch, tassel earrings, and strappy block heel sandals.
The clutch I found is only $38! I've also rounded eleven of my favorite clutches that are versatile for day or night outings:
Accessorizing is key! Some of my favorite tassel earrings:
Last but not least, these block heel sandals will be the only shoes you'll need. I am sure you've seen these everywhere but for good reason. It is such a versatile pair of heeled sandals. It can be paired with rompers, dresses, shorts, or jeans. It is dressy without being too formal. It is true to size.
Here are other block-heel options I personally own and highly recommend:

It’s sunny. It’s rainy. Welcome to Washington springtime (well, almost summer).
I have packed away my duvet coats for something a little lighter, but with the bipolar weather it's hard to know what to wear in this tricky transitional season. I say versatily like a lightweight moto jacket is key! My favorite color for this season is blush. It's such a beautful neutral color that goes with almost everything.
I got this crop suede biker jacket for under $75 and I love the black zippers on it! If you're not a pink fan, it comes in cognac and blue as well.
I paired it with one my other spring/summer essential: this high-low blouse. The pretty peplum hem puts a feminine finish that will pair with just about everything in my closet.
Ladies, New Year's Eve will be here faster than the ball drops at Times Square. If you haven't found the perfect dress for wherever this NYE takes you -- start! Finding the perfect NYE dress is usually an epic task but thanks to Nordstrom, I have found my perfect New Year's Eve outfit with ease.
For starters, you can always make a fierce entrance in a sultry red dress, stick with the chic little black dress, or even embrace old hollywood with a flapper dress. But since New Years Eve is all about new, sparkly, shiny things, I went with this gorgeous pleated-metallic dress that moves so beautifully.
Truthfully, I am all about comfort so I went with this dress also because it was free flowing and long enough to keep me warm (I am wearing crop long underwear under this. Shhh, don't tell!) I love the little cutout bodice with an accordion pleated skirt. To stay comfortable, for all night of dancing, I wore these amazing block heels (makes sure you size up). For finishing touches, I embellished it with my Christian Paulwatch, extra jewels and green faux-fur clutch for the win.
