breaking all the rules

Not only did I wait until after Labor Day to break out my white jeans...


I waited for the official end of summer and second day of fall!!!


Who made up that silly little rule anyway?

Hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine consisted of shopping, studying, studying, studying and more shopping to treat myself for all the studying :)

falling for fall

I believe today is the first day of fall. That means it's time for pants, blazers, jackets and scraves. O my!

It's also time for boots, but I must admit that I will rock a pair of peep toe heels all year long ;)

Like most lovers of fashion, fall is my favorite season because of all the fabulous clothes, but I also like fall because of the way it makes me feel. There's something about falling leaves, fireplaces, warm drinks and crisp air that makes me feel all warm inside.

Random side note, if you ever visit San Francisco, I highly recommend Hotel Abri.

stepping out

Per my previous post, I was not ready to whip out the wedges on my first day of class.
But it didn't take me long to have a change of heart :)

My favorite new school supply is this Target tote! I wear it all the time as if it matched everything, and that's so not the case, but ask me if I care ;)

And my favorite new accessory are these earrings from eShakti.

Happy Hump Day!

too cool for school

So if you remember, this is what I was envisioning wearing on my first day of classes.

And this is what I came up with. I had a more literal interpretation, BUT I switched it up last minute so I could wear my flats. I wasn't ready to step out in 5 inch wedges on the first day ;)

easy breezy

Think of your most comfortable pair of pj's. Now, multiply that by 10 and that's how comfortable this American Apparel jumper is.

I almost didn't buy it because I don't like tube tops on me, but with a chunky necklace, all of my insecurities about this silhouette went out the door :)

On a side note, have you guys heard of golden raspberries? I picked some up from the Farmers Market last week, and I am hooked! Off to eat a few now...

i've been featured!

Thanks for the well wishes with grad school. I've had two classes and so far so good :) My outfit came together nicely, but unfortunately you're going to have to wait and see what I came up with because I haven't quite worked out taking pictures of myself at my new residence. I guess I need to get a tripod...

But on a brighter AND colorful note, here is the last outfit picture from my trip to New York. As evident in THIS post, I held true to my theme of color and prints :)

During the day in NY I was always running around in flat sandals and my feet were KILLING me.

So, on the last day, I opted for these wedges and they were the answer to my feet's prayers :) I find Jessica Simpson shoes to be some of the most comfortable out there.

On an even brighter note, I am so excited that the lovely Elle of Edk.Dolce did a feature on me. Please check out our Q&A HERE
