Python Please

Animal print will never go out of style, and I've recently gotten more adventurous with this trend. While leopard seems to be an easy print to wear, I think python might be the next step for me. It's a nice neutral tone that can be dressed up or down.

Madewell, Sidewalk Skimmer, $99
This print is enlarged which I love for this flat. Makes the graphic that much bolder.

A very flowy blouse is great for work or a date. I really like the collarless neckline.

A little rocker but I'm also picturing these with an LBD.

Banana Republic, Tamara Python Clutch, $89
I love this oversized clutch. I really love the gold chain that you tuck in or use as a shoulder bag.

Python might be my next animal print purchase, it seems so easy to mix in with other pieces!

Flowering with Potential

Happy humpday lovebugs,
We're getting there. And what better way to brighten your day then by stopping to smell the roses. Let's take a look at some great floral tops your can wear right now.

A great navy floral print that you can wear now or this summer. The drawstring creates a great peplum.

The blush tones in this sweater are a perfect compliment to so many skin tones.

The bubble hem, adds a great finish to this blouse. The high scoop neck offers a great opportunity to show off some drop earrings.

Banana Republic, Selena Floral Pullover, $69
I'm fairly confident this will go on sale, so wait a little bit. I would layer a navy pinstripe oxford underneath.

Florals are a great way to welcome the warmer weather without breaking out the white eyelet or seersucker.

Building Blocks

Ok ladies, let's talk heels. I'm more of a low heel kind of girl, but if I can walk in them for more than 40 minutes, I'm willing to give them a shot. And the new trend of the block heel is giving me that option. Something tall yet sturdy, mod yet sleek.


Reiss, Yves Glitter Court Heel, $82 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Go, run, click, buy this shoe. Oh my word, my dream shoe. Purple satin, gold block glitter. Get in my closet. 

How sweet are these heels? A girly mint color, ankle strap and lucite heel. Yum.

Nine West, Peace out, $49
Snakeskin anyone? Check out the angles on this heel! 

Last Call Neiman Marcus, Kelsi Dagger Molly Patent Pump, $52
The always versatile nude pump. An understated bow is perfect for a suit.

I just LOVE a block heel because it makes stiletto wimps like me able to strut their stuff too!

Black Tie Wrist

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I thought we could extend the weekend a little bit by looking at some glamorous items. Watches. Now, stay with me, there is a trend and style for every kind of watch, but the dressier options sometimes leave the wallet hurting. Today I'm thinking of a black tie inspired watch. Black, white, with silver or gold accents. Very versatile yet mature.

The silver and gold option is a great way to play with mixed metals. 

This is understated bling. Don't get me wrong there is a time and place for a blinged out watch, but for something more workplace appropriate, this is a great option.

Fossil, Georgia Leather Watch, $95
I really like the snaffle bit detail on either side of the face, it makes this piece just a bit more interesting.

Urban Outfitters, La Mer oversized vintage watch, $85
CHeck out the crown on this watch (aka the time adjuster knobby) I love how it stands out next to this quite oversized face.

Watches are a very personal purchase. For me I wear the same one everyday, so it needs to be dressed up and down depending on the occasion. Finding something black and white or a tuxedo-style watch will make it easy for you to mix it into your wardrobe.
