Spacedye & Druzies


Dress - c/o Shein / Jacket (similar) - Old Navy / Booties - TOMS / Necklace - BaubleBar (a gift!) / Bag - Kate Spade / Bracelet - BaubleBar








Little swing dresses have been all I've wanted lately. I have a long sleeve version, but the hint of spring we've been getting on the weekends had me wanting a short sleeve version too. You know, since I'll be able to have bare arms in three months or so. I'm super loving this spacedye pattern, and wish I could rock it with bare legs! 

Can we talk about how pretty this druzy necklace is? Jeff got it for me for my birthday, and supposedly he picked it out all by himself. He said he chose it because I have "a bunch like it already," but, um, no I don't. Or at least, I don't have any druzy necklaces, I suppose to Jeff it's exactly the same as any other colored stone ;) I'd never really considered druzies or other natural stones before, but now I don't know why I've ignored them. The texture adds a little something extra, and the way it catches the light is really pretty. I'm also really loving the color - it's so perfect for spring! 

And now let's chat about my moto jacket. I've had it in my closet for six or seven years now, and it's still my go-to pick. The moto cut is so flattering for any girl with curves, and I love the hint of edge it can add to any outfit. And, and, it's from Old Navy! I'm amazed that it's held up that long - just goes to show that they do put out some quality items. I'm guessing that when you compare the amount I spent on it versus the number of wears, it would equate to less than a penny for each time I've worn it.

Playing It Cool


Shirt (similar) - Loft / Jacket (similar) - Old Navy / Jeans - Gap / Booties (similar) - Kelly & Katie / Bag - Sole Society





Okay, so seriously, is it June or not? My style posts were on a pretty good spring high (there were dresses! and more dresses!) but now lately I've been back in fall. I know that today it's about 85 degrees out, but on Friday night when we wanted to do some good patio sitting for my friend's birthday it in the 50's, so I had to pull out some layers and booties (and maybe some blankets).

Let's talk about a little style insecurity I have. I've noticed lately that the only times I'm truly stumped on what to wear is when we're heading out a little further west in the city (think Wicker Park, Bucktown, the West Loop) - it's where the hipsters tend to congregate, so everyone seems to be dressed down and somehow effortlessly cool. So I try to be effortlessly cool by trying on everything in my closet, which is, you know, super effortless. And then every time I end up in this same tee shirt paired with lots of black. Like really, every time. I don't know how you got so far into my head Wicker Park, but please stop messing with me.
