This past week I indulged in some much needed R&R with my family (and Barney of course) in Northern California, where we spent time taking long walks along the water, tasting amazing wine, eating fresh, home-cooked meals, and lounging around reading and play solitaire (on my new iPhone!) It was such a wonderful vacation and I definitely took advantage of the lovely scenery for some outfit shots, which you will see all this week, so stay tuned! xoxo
Finding A Parallel
RayBan Aviators / J. Crew Necklace (old) / Zara Sweater / Banana Republic Shorts (old) / Tory Burch “Lucian Crochet Wedges” (gift) / Foley + Corinna Mid City Tote in “Poppy” (gift) / Coach Boyfriend Bracelet (gift)
I picked up this sweet little sweater at Zara for a sweet little price (read massively on sale), and love how the gold stitching reminds me of (and parallels) the crisscrossing of the gold chain on my wedges. Sometimes outfits work out just right and feel easy breezy, and when they do, they are that much more fun to enjoy, don’t you think? xoxo
Lemon and Ikat
RayBan Wayfarers / White House | Black Market Necklace / J.Crew “Perfect Shirt in Wild Ikat” and Panama Hat / F21 Shorts / Seychelles Heels (gift from ModCloth)
Who knew what a fun combo bright yellow and purple Ikat could be!
You’ve all seen these shorts before (here and here) but this top is a new favorite. I recently picked it up from J.Crew with the help of a sweet little Birthday gift card from the lovely Keiko. She even snapped these photos. She really is the best. xoxo
Snap, Crackle, Pop!

Happy belated 4th everyone! Hope you had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday. xoxo
Tone on Tone
Today’s post is all about peach on poppy, and silver on beige. Basically, tone on tone, which is just enough simple, just enough chic, don’t you think? xoxo

Birthday Fun
Ali Ro Dress (on loan) / J.Crew Necklace / Charlotte Russe Bracelets / Steve Madden “Caryssa” Heels
Et, voila! The Birthday dress. I kept it simple with classic accessories and let the dress do the rest.
Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a nice and relaxing weekend, I know I did! It started with a surprise treat from “A” on Saturday morning, then a nice long nap and some leisure time before I started getting ready for the big evening. “A” and I went to dinner at Edi & the Wolf, which was excellent. But right before dinner, as I was sitting outside waiting to meet “A” Amanda (blogger of A to B) calls out my name and comes over to say hi. The best part? She was wearing the My Style Pill dress! I snapped a photo because she looked so cute. (See photos of her, and dinner, after the jump.)
Afterward, we headed over to 10 Degrees to celebrate with friends. I even wore a Birthday tiara! It was all and all, one of the best Birthdays ever and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you to everyone who was involved, including Ali Ro, and especially “A”! xoxo
Mikimoto and Me
RayBan Wayfarers / American Apparel Gray V-Neck / J Brand Purple Cut-off Shorts (gift) / Sole Society “Cipriani” Wedges (gift) / Foley + Corinna “Poppy” Mid City Tote (gift) / Mikimoto Japan Relief Pendant (gift)
Loving my new J Brand Purple Cut-off Shorts!

Strolling on Sundays
RayBan Sunglasses / J.Crew Necklace / Equipment Tank Blouse / Urban Outfitters Shorts / Nine West Espadrilles (c/o of Shop It To Me) / Coach Watch
This past Sunday, “A” and I went and saw Submarine, and afterwards picked up a couple of Baked by Melissa cupcakes. (Below are my two favorite kinds.) Afterward we shared some sushi and chatted about the upcoming week. It was a quiet and calm day, just like I like my Sundays.
Peanut Butter and…
S’mores :)
