Great White Weekend

Super clean, super lean. These are some of my favorite things.

"There has to be different ways to style this white Zara skort", I thought. Sure, it looks great with a laid back tee, but I would hate for this little piece of clothing to be boxed into such a predictable combination. Which is why I feel like I struck gold when I needed a more interesting under-thing for this long lacy top. It solved two problems; 1) the skort covered up my bottom half and provided this lady with some angular interest to an otherwise frilly sheer tunic, and 2) covered up the skort part of the equation. I think we can all agree "skirt" part in the front looks divine, flattering to most body shapes even, while the back is a straight up mini short — in white. I'd like to say this solution is darling, which is why pairing it with a pair of jet black Balenciaga cut out boots made so much sense to me.

Small Things

It was a perfect weekend with my mom, mostly spent in San Francisco, walking the Golden Gate bridge in the morning, followed by a sunny lunch in Union Square, then a ferry trip home to the East Bay. My trusty uniform of tailored pieces (typically black, of course) paired with a button up was all the more special this time around with the recent additions of some gold embellishments: The western touches on the shirt, the thin gold rims on my sunglasses, and some brand new shine on my tiny Jennifer Fisher baby earrings. I love how minor touches of gold and a bold matte red lip brighten up and otherwise minimal, yet formal looking outfit. I guess the smile glued to my face doesn't hurt either in the brightening up department. After all, I was in the company of someone truly special, spending time enjoying all the small things.

Eyelet

I love how this dress from Zara reminded me of that Dolce & Gabbana eyelet dress Giselle wore on the cover of Paris Vogue. It has a slip underneath, but part of me can't wait to go on vacation and wear it as a beach cover up. It's super light and airy, as seen by this recent instagram of it, and it looks amazing without the stark white showing through the eyelet details.

The Most Beautiful Bouquet of Silk Shorts You'll Own

D&G silk floral printed shorts are like staring at a peony, which happens to be my favorite flower. So why not dress like one? The shorts are delicate, dainty, and feminine. Accenting the floral aspect of them with a petal-like Rochas ruffle collar blouse is fashion forward and dressed up at the same time. My ultimate favorite shoes of all time, the Manolo Blahnik CC patent leather pumps. Holy crap, I must have waited months for these to be back in stock. They look classic in photos, and they are amazing in person. If ever a splurge, this is it, ladies.
