Happy Frrrrriday dolls! I hadn't posted anything all week because I've been working on the design of my blog. It's been YEARS since I'd touched it. Initiallly, I bought a template from a person on ETSY but she went out of business and my page's images and links stopped working. I couldn't figure out why it looked terrible...until I figured out she'd exited the blog designing game and didn't let anyone know. :( So I've been trying to figure this out on my own. Hope you guys like the new design! Obviously there are going to be some glitches over the next few weeks but its better than it had been!

On to the main event! I've been LOVING graphic tees lately! Since I basically throw on whatever is directly near me in the morning, its typically a t-shirt and jeans/shorts/yoga pants. I feel like there has been a graphic tee explosion lately on Instagram! I've purchased a few and am hoping to make a video haul in a few days. Here are some of the ones that have caught my eye! I really love the ILY Couture shirt with the rows of hearts. I saw a girl wearing it on Instagram and its on the list to buy!

I thought i'd give you options on what to pair them with. I stayed with denim because there are so many styles and colors out there that you could easy change a look with denim material now.

Of course, you can't forget to add shoes to this outfit. I chose a variety of styles and color because I most graphic tees lately have been black, white or gray and you DEFINITELY need some color in this equation. Of course you should be careful not to add too much color. I did choose some colored jeans below so make sure you don't over it.
Hope you all have a Happy Easter!

Happy Friday! We've been having some seriously sunny and warm weather here in Northern California! On Wednesday, the high was 80 degrees! I was born in the Central Valley which is typically hot in the Spring and Summer months so I LA-LA-LOVE when the temperature gets above 68 degrees.

For a few years, I've had the same two sunglasses: a pair of Marc Jacobs wide sunnies and aviators from Banana Republic.

But this year, I wanted to try something new. I've seen so many fun styles come out that are totally not typically I would go for but I feel that I am in need of a makeover. I've had the same look for five years and am dying to do something new. I've been looking at new hairstyles, different wardrobe looks...and sunnies! I think sunnies can totally change the look and feel of your wardrobe.

I bought some of the sunnies from Forever 21 and am saving for the Dior's. I think that Forever 21 offers snazzy looking dupes of the real deals. Check out the Pink shades from Forever 21 and the black Karen Walkers (first row last set). They look allllllmost alike! Which ones are your faves?
Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

Happy Friday! So I got an email from Forever 21 on Monday and normally, I ignore it (trying to save for a big purchase is HARRRRRD) but was intrigued by this particular email. Forever 21 Contemporary has some pretty amazing minimalist pieces out right now. I have a thing for stripes so I'll be buying that trapeze top and skirt. And while I've never worn a crop top, I'll definitely try it paired with a pencil skirt!

What's on your Lust List?

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend! Here is a little of what went down in my world last week...

Hi all! Happy Friday! I've been wanting to start Fashioned Fridays for YEARS now and am finally getting around to it. Let's just say moving, getting married, baby, moving (again), taking care of baby have all taken priority... :)

I've always been a fan of Forever 21 because they cater to so many schools of style and the different styles are integrated into the store so while you may not like the Boho or Rocker look, they sit next to items that you do like and could potentially pair well together (suggestive selling FTW!). My style varies between casual to sporty to feminine to on-trend. Lately, I've been drawn to the feminine blouses that have come out for the Spring! You can pair these pieces with just about anything... pencil skirts for a work look, jeans (skinny, boyfriend, cropped...), slacks... the list goes on...

Here are some of my favorites...I've purchased the first and the last blouses on the list... LOVING the color of the first one. I'm not normally into lace, but I was drawn to the last blouse on this list. It screams Spring! What have you purchased lately?

Here are some of my favorites from Old Navy too... Baby Girl Edition! I know most of the East Coast is BURIED in snow but out here in CA, we're having some pretty fabulous weather! That totally inspired me to gather some items for my little one from Old Navy. She's almost 8 months old and up until now, I've been dressing her in onesies and leggings but since she's almost ready to crawl and walk and get mobile, I feel like its time to add some real clothes.... Now the fun and shopping really begin!

A couple of weeks ago, I was invited by Stitch Fix to attend their Style Influencer's event at the swanky Citizen Hotel. Stitch Fix is a subscription service that comes with a stylist who sends you five pieces a month....accessories, pants, dresses, jackets... whatever your heart desires for $20 a month. You can purchase 1 item or all five (you get a 25% discount if you purchase all five). I've never used a subscription service before, so I grabbed one of my girlfriends and headed to the event to see what Stitch Fix was all about.

The event was so much fun! They served appetizers and champagne and we were able to preview the clothes.  There were stylists and other Stitch Fix staff there to answer any questions we had. Toward the end of the event, they had a "style off" and had 3 invitees style pull 5 items for their client based on the clues they were given.... The twist? They were the managers or supervisors at the event. I even met a fashion blogger from San Francisco that I follow, Kate Ogata from The Fancy Pants Report!

The clothes that were on display were gorgeous! There were jackets, scarves, dresses, bags and accessories on hand.

Here are a few pictures... Please excuse the poor quality as the room was dimly lit.

I met some really fun ladies including Kim (Dir. of Ops.) and Laurie (who was taking this picture).
