Tied to the Side

Recently, I stepped out for brunch with some friends. Since I had spent the majority of the weekend in yoga pants and an oversized sweater {I swear it is colder at the end of March than it was on Christmas Day in SoCal}, I was excited to change into something that felt a bit more fun and creative. I opted for this marbleized maxi dress I purchased years ago in Santa Barbara, and paired it with a golden South Sea pearl pendant, bow-topped heels, and a lime green clutch. And to keep it from feeling too causal for our al fresco meal, I tied the dress on one side, making it feel a bit more fitted and just a little more fun.

Black & Coral Rain

The weather has been strange lately – drizzly and cloudy, then bright and sunny. However, since California has such confusing and unpredictable weather even amidst our storms, I decided to mix my winter wardrobe with a bright pop of spring. Pairing my leather pencil skirt with a silk camisole, I threw on a coral blazer to brighten up the entire look. It made the grey weather and rain drop filled streets feel just a little more like spring truly is in less than two weeks.
