Beverly Hills Brunch

February 24, 2015

Two things that will get me out of a stressed-at-work funk every time – leaving town and brunch! Last weekend, the boyfriend and I took the hour drive to Beverly Hills to indulge in the most luxurious, tasty brunch menu at The Beverly Hilton. We had an Amazon deal which included unlimited mimosas (hello!), a starter, an entrée, unlimited trips to the buffet, and a dessert plate to die for… Everything was so fresh and gorgeous. I definitely recommend it if you’re in the area 🙂

Can you believe… All of this.. For just the two of us!
My favorite for sure was the pudding/chocolate mousse cup.

Random cockatiel sighting in the hallways.

Seafoam Dress and Lace Biker Jacket

February 24, 2015

A couple days ago, I tore through a box of about 14 dresses I bought from ASOS (thanks to a lovely combination of a great discount code, lax return policy and a decent amount of red wine while browsing, it gets me every time!), and this was the one I was most “meh” about right out of the bag. I loved the color but it was quite sack-like on the hanger. I tried it on, threw on a skinny belt, and OMG, I love this dress! The best part is the Loeffler Randall bag I am currently borrowing has little hints of this color throughout it, so it paired beautifully.

Pleated Floral Skirt and Dark Lips OOTD

February 8, 2015

I love when I’m able to work typically spring/summer items in to an outfit in the colder months. It makes me feel like my wardrobe has doubled in possibilities!
This midi skirt was a recent find from one of my favorite online retailers, ASOS (and is currently on sale for $15!!). I felt like this look needed a bold, dark lip to balance out the airy, floral pattern of the skirt. For a little play on textures, I added these black booties with a vinyl front panel.

Which item do you find it easiest to transition throughout the changing seasons?

#flatlay

October 4, 2014

I could spend hours perusing the hashtag “flatlay” on Instagram. The carefully cultivated collections of items, artfully laid out, sometimes as if everything just fell perfectly in to place on it’s own… And quite often, an outfit idea that I save to my phone to inspire me at a later date. Below are my first 3 posts, joining the #flatlay movement.
