Butter Yellow

Hey lovebugs!
Today I'm loving rich, buttery, yellow. Something bright and cheery to brighten your way to the weekend.

I just love the pleating around the waistline.  The print is just the right size.

You know I'm a sucker for sequins.  I'd pair this with a black suit for during the week and a pair of black shorts with heels with the weekends.

Oh Kate, you know simple perfection like no one else.  I picture these on my mom's dresser and I get to wear them on a very special occasion.

DSW, BB Kimmie Flat, $37
I really like the flower with this soft yellow hue.

Yellow isn't always mellow, in fact this buttery color is just what I need to give me an extra pep in my step!

Natural Bangles

Bangles are all the rage right now, but sometimes the jingle jangle on my arm gets a little old.  How about trying a bangle with a more natural texture? Oh and they offer a quieter option to the metal bracelets.

Forever 21, Vibrant Island Bangles, $3!
These are SO much fun.  They also come in yellow and light blue.

These are just so sweet.  Like a sundress wrapped up into a bracelet.

Ralph Lauren, Embellished Wooden Bangle, $35
I absolutely love these bangles.  They are so sophisticated but in the least flashiest way.

Need Supply, Mali Africa Bracelets, $14
Talk about color! This goes with everything: a maxi dress or shorts.

I really like the different materials in these bangles.  Try some out in resin, wood, enamel, or fabric.

It's Hip to be Square

Right angles, straight lines, crisp and clean.  I'm loving a square print right now!  Check out these picks.

American Apparel, Vintage Silk Square Print Shift, $65
Ok, so the model looks miserable, but this color and groovy print is just perfect for some metallic sandals.

I'm loving this blouse now with a white pencil skirt for work and then in the winter with a yellow cashmere cardigan.

Sorry the picture isn't great, but I love this for errands on the weekend or a trip to the park with a book for the afternoon.

Canvas, Madras Scarf, $13
This is nice for a cooler summer night.  I'm picturing it with chino shorts and a t shirt.

I really like the square print because it's a fun take on stripes.  Be careful with the size of print, make sure it is in proportion to your size.

Geometric Hoops

Let's talk hoops.  Not basketball, earrings.  But not just your normal circles, I'm talking geometric hoops, something more alluring to the eye.


Dainty, delicate, and just a touch rocker right?


Rachel Roy, Hematite tone squares, $26
I really love these with an LBD or a deep v neck.

Very simple like a hoop but this shape elongates the face.

Urban Outfitters, Tribal Point Hoop Earrings, $20
These are perfect for a breezy maxi dress, just enough bling.

I'm loving the simplicity of these earrings but these offer a little more edge.  Perfect for summer sweet dresses.
