I’m heading to the lake with girlfriends for a weekend of thrills and chills. Hope yours is epic or rejuvenating, whichever you prefer….

Ok this picture of J. Stam makes me more than a little excited for fall.

This fall I’m going to be all about loafers and platforms. And I have a penchant for blues if you couldn’t tell…

I found these high waist navy sailor pants last week at TJ Maxx and I absolutely adore them. They are the perfect length to wear/disguise towering platforms and elongate the leg.

(what i wore: sheath – banana republic, blazer – vintage, stripper heels – quipid, rings – forever21, earrings – banana) 

Feeling bridal, as usual, I paired an off white sheath with a cream blazer and my crocodile stripper stilletos.

I’m slightly freaking out. Our wedding is officially one month away! I would be lying if I said I wasn’t stressed. I AM. I had no idea how many details there would be. But, I have to say I am more ecstatic than I am stressed. Granted things will go wrong, but I get to be with the sweetest guy I’ve ever met, everyone I love is coming to celebrate and then it’s off to the beach. What could be better?

Julia Stegner is as beautiful as ever in this editorial from Harper’s Bazaar 2008. I love the juxtaposition of the black & white against the desert. Enjoy!

(what i wore: dress – vintage, pumps – michael antonio, nails – sally hanson)

Yesterday I wanted to channel Joan so I pulled out a vintage dress, my absolutely tallest pumps and went on my way…

Not sure why I’m wearing transitional outfits when it’s hot as an inferno outside. However, it’s very difficult to dress for being in air conditioning all day. Sometimes it feels so frigid inside, you’re uncomfortable wearing sleeveless. So, I wore this Friday and felt great all day inside my office. As soon as I stepped outside I thought I was going to stroke out. Nonetheless, I can’t wait to revisit it for fall.
