Holiday Party Look : Sequin Tank

December 23, 2015

Well, hello loves!
My third and final party look for the holidays is a simple, tried-and-true pairing of a sequined tank, a black blazer and skinny jeans. You can definitely opt for ankle booties if the weather won’t allow for heels (it’s been raining in Redlands since last night!) or even some knee-high boots with gorgeous hardware would be a fantastic substitution. This outfit I would definitely wear to a NYE party with friends.
Speaking of New Year’s Eve plans, currently, the idea is that Mark and I will be meeting up with a few couples for a little prix fixe menu action at a local eatery and then back to our house for some drinks to ring in the New Year. I have to work on New Years Day in the morning so I’m completely fine with keeping things local and low-key and this outfit will work perfectly for the occasion!

Rebecca Taylor Print Maxi

November 12, 2015

Dress number two from Rebecca Taylor by way of Rent the Runway. Another gorgeous print I fell in love with! The styles are also similar, with a self-tie waist-cincher, button-down front, and ruffled cap sleeves on both dresses. The maxi flows beautifully when you walk, allowing a little leg to peek out too.
This dress would actually be the perfect thing to bring on the upcoming cruise (4 days in Catalina/Ensenada) I’m planning for! I’ve never been on a cruise before, so I’ve spent my recent downtime at work researching every little thing I shouldn’t be caught without.. I’ve already locked down my “formal dinner” gown here, and only have one swimsuit so no guessing game in that department. It’s the in-between time that I’m trying to figure out dressing for. I’d love to hear your tips on dressing for a cruise!

Print Playdress

November 6, 2015

It’s now November, and warm days are still a thing for those living on the west coast. I love to have flirty little dresses like this around for such days. This one in particular, has such a fun, season-less print, and a lovely movement when I walk. This dress was borrowed from Rent the Runway, one of their many more casual, daytime options available with the Unlimited subscription.
Side note, and completely off-topic, but I am still totally affected by Glenn’s likely demise on The Walking Dead! I cried when it was happening, and then again when the show was over and couldn’t sleep that night. I am completely aware that it’s just a TV show and not real, but it was just so sad! He’d been on the show forever, and you can’t help but hope for him to be reunited with Maggie, the love of his life. And also how devastated she’s going to be! Ahhh, I can’t.. Until next episode, which I’ve missed due to my nutty work schedule! I think they’re showing it again tonight 😀

Maxi in the Fields

September 16, 2015

Holli (my lovely photographer) and I, were craving an outdoor adventure come photo shoot day. She remembered this old forest up in Oak Glen that she used to visit as a child, so we decided to make the drive and explore a bit. Unfortunately, it had recently been chopped down 🙁 but we stumbled upon a corn maze instead! It was a touch warm.. uhmm 95 degrees? So we didn’t quite make it through to the end. It was so nice to be in the serene surroundings, and even with the heat, the air seems so much more fresh out of the city.
