Look of the Day: Crazy Striped Dress

Oh, it's amazing how a sunny day can make a girl wanna get dolled up to skip around town. Thank God this past Saturday wasn't too hot. I had the pleasure of meeting up with my oh-so-stylish, 'long lost' cousin (not really lost, but it had been a while since we'd seen each other) and have a lovely lunch on Lakeshore Avenue soaking in the sun. 

Inspired by the weather, I chose a new, crazy striped dress I swooped up from a boutique, called Sway. I swear it's like my neighborhood Forever 21! On days that I want height without the pain of heels, I strap on my peep toe, espadrille wedges. They're almost flat, but four inches off the ground! I went simple with custom Bobbi J jewelry and studded earrings along with natural makeup, but with a punch of color on the lips.

I love my MK, but I'm craving a new look. Good thing it's my birthday next month ;)

Sunday Funday: Anniversary Edition in Cobalt Blue and Bright Orange

OH-EM-GEE I finally found some time to blog! I just started the Fashion Merchandise Marketing graduate program at FIDM San Francisco last week, so I'm getting adjusted to my new schedule and crazy workload. And let me tell ya, this ain't no joke!

Anyway, this past Monday was mine and my boyfriend's 6th anniversary! (If any one of you asks me when he's going to propose, I will personally punch you in the face! lol) So on Sunday, we decided to take advantage of this gorgeous weather and have a celebratory brunch after we took care of our babies (our plants) followed by some intense go-kart racing-- we're adrenaline junkies like that.

I opted for a new, cobalt blue lace number from Express that I've been dyyyyiinngg to wear when the weather reached over 70 degrees along with BCBG studded sandals in orange. I had to show my excitement and love for spring some kind of way and this is the best route I know how-- through my clothes!

So go on and click for lots of shots of our beautiful, celebratory day...enjoy!
