studs & fringe.

You know when you leave a store slightly regretting that you didn't buy something?  Well, that's the case of these two lovely little pieces from Zara.  I tried them on a week ago and have been dreaming about them ever since.  That jacket with the studded collar...yes please!  Oh and I'm certainly a sucker for anything fringe.  That skirt could so easily be dressed up or down.  Eeeeekkkk, I may have to make a return trip.

sunrise.

Are you an early riser?  My husband and I wake up at 6am on weekdays and I've grown to love it.  I cherish those early morning hours when I begin to hear the outside world slowly start to awake.  It's so very peaceful.  When I saw this wedding on Green Wedding Shoes, it stole my heart.  A sunrise ceremony beginning at 6am?  Pure magic!

And that feather bolero is seriously calling my name!

colors & patterns.

Happy-Happy Friday!  Hoping to squeeze in a bit of shopping this weekend.  I'm currently craving a flowly printed dress and a pair of bright pants.  Most days I wear a lot of solid colors, especially my all-time favorite color, white.  I'm trying to branch out a bit and incorporate more & more patterns into my wardobe.  Enjoy your weekend and here's to trying out new things.  xoxo!

the walls.

I've long been a fan of wallpaper.  Since we live in a rental, I've had to put my wallpaper dreams on hold for the moment (although I did read about this amazing removeable type on Oh Happy Day).  While I ponder on using the removeable option, here are a few faves that are the real deal.

glitter guide.

Eeeeekkkkk, I'm so very excited to be able to share the shoot I styled for Glitter Guide.  It was such a blast and I can't thank Taylor enough for asking me to be part of this fun "5 Summer Looks" shoot.  Check out more here.

A super big shout out to all of the people involved.  

Overall concept and art direction: Taylor, Makeup: Alexia Ogle of Faux Lash, Model: Kaitlyn Fitzpatrick of JE Model SF (and Kaitlyn's cute mom did her hair for the shoot), Glitter Guide Assistant: Lauren Michelle, Photography: Isaac Miller and Joelle Wagner at Blue Sky LightGrid Studios

And a few behind-the-scenes photos of our awesome day!

 

dreaming.

Obviously from the past two posts (here and here), it is apparent that I'm day dreaming about taking a little vacation poolside.  I'm itching to get back to Palm Springs!  I'd love to be there lounging out in this cute suit, this hat, with a little drink and my hubby by my side.

sunnies.

Wow, what an amazing weekend.  I had such a blast styling a photo shoot with Taylor for an upcoming Glitter Guide feature.  It was truly so much fun and I can't wait to share the pics.  While at the shoot, we all had some fun trying on each other's sunglasses.  We passed around my Karen Walkers (which I am completely obsessed with) & Taylor's House of Harlow cuties.  Eeeekkkk, I might just need to add those black enlarged cateye sunnies to my collection.

swim time.

I'm pretty sure I need this suit, and I need it right now!  I'm more then slightly obsessed.  THAT pattern...THAT style...yes yes yes!  Hope you have a great weekend.  I'll be right here day dreaming about making that Mara Hoffman number mine.
