I love Love. Yeah, I said it! And I'm not talking only about mushy-mushy, romantic, The Notebook type of love. I mean all of it. The love between you and your parents, your gal-pals, your furry friends, and your lover. I'm talking about the love you have for your passions in life. Whatever makes you happy: food, fun, anything and everything that makes us smile and enjoy life to the max.

I roll my eyes when Valentine's Day is propped up as 'Singles Awareness Day' because it points out the lack of love in your life, when it's only a portion. It's discounting the fact that love exists in so many other areas and makes people feel bad about what's missing. I say F that. Take this day (and everyday, really) to be grateful and show the people you love how much you love them. Whether it's a batch of group texts to your nearest to dearest to sending your mama her favorite flowers-- we've all got love in our lives. Just show it and embrace it.


Happy Valentine's Day!

Look of the Day: Rainbow, Leopard, and Studs All In One.

I think I found my new party pants because these babies right here put me in the best mood! Not to mention, they're super roomy, lightweight, and heck, they even have an elastic tie waist (perfect for the buffet)! Since there's so much going on down below, I paired it with a black tank, studded flats and added a pop of color with fun rainbow aviators.

Fresh Out the Bag: Warby Parker 1922 Collection

I have perfect vision. And I'm thankful for that. Although when I was a kid in my single digits era, I always wanted some type of impairment. Why you ask? Because I wanted the accessories! From retainers to braces and most of all, glasses. As an adult, I'm happy that I can roll out of bed and not worry about popping in contact lenses or accidentally stepping on my glasses and breaking the frames. But with the launch of Warby Parker's limited edition 1922 Collection, my angst for four eyes has renewed. Thankfully, they also have sunglasses.

The 1922 Collection translates interwar glamour into a wearable future. Each of the three new frames comes with a sunglasses version, and all feature dramatic details in their signature custom acetate and stainless steel. In addition, just like all of our existing collections, for every pair sold, Warby Parker distributes a pair to someone in need through their non-profit partners.

Check out my faves below:

Sunglasses for the Unexpected Sunshine

Over the past four days, it has been raining cats and dogs and whatever type of rain phrase you can come up with. Luckily, a pair of free Raider tickets came my way from a good friend of mine and the sun decided to come out too! Unfortunately, since it had been raining, foggy and super cloudy for the longest time, I completely forgot to bring my sunglasses to the game.

So you know what that means-- a sunglass blog post was in the near future and off I went exploring shapes, jewel tones, and frames. 

Peep below for several sunnies I'm diggin':
