One Shoulder + Striped Skirt

Top (currently on final sale for less than $7!!!) - LOFT / Skirt - J. Crew Factory / Sandals (similar) - Dolce Vita / Bag (similar) - Ann Taylor / Sunglasses - Urban Outfitters / Earrings (also, have you tried ear support patches for statement earrings? They make a huge difference!!) - BaubleBar

Were you done seeing pictures of me in Napa yet? Because, sorry, I wasn't done sharing them ;)

Napa Valley may just be one of my favorite places on Earth. I love the laid-back feel, the countryside + mountain views, and, of course, the wine. Plus, the weather somehow seems to be absolutely perfect. I'm basing that off of only two trips, but somehow because of the humidity and the lack of wind the hot never feels that hot, nor does the cold ever feel that cold. When can I move in?

For our trip (now two weekends ago?!) I picked a lot of blue and white to mix and match in my suitcase. I hadn't tried these two pieces together previously, but the combo of a one-shoulder top with a pretty skirt feels both classic and trendy at the same time. Perfect for wine tasting, and then more wine tasting, and then all the way through dinner!

We took these pictures in and around Yountville, mainly in the gardens for the French Laundry. If you haven't heard of it, it's one of the fanciest restaurants in the United States, and dinner for two can easily cost over $500. While we have so far decided the price isn't quite in our budget for these trips (mainly because we'd rather spend that money on more wine!) I'm still hoping that somehow we'll make it! In the meantime, their gardens across the street are open to the public, and are full of every produce item you can think of! Plus, there's no missing that view :)
