Hog Tied

Howdy,
When you hear lariat necklace, do you cringe because you think something like this? Fear not my dear. The lariat necklace is a fantastic long accessory to spice up your tee, maxi, and everything in between. I thought we would step it up a notch today and look at some layered lariat necklaces. They're delicate and intricate in all of the best ways.

 Shopbop, Gorjana Candice Shimmer Layered Lariat Necklace, $88

So delicate and ladylike, I love this with an LBD.

Saks Off Fifth, Jules Smith Double Layered Lariat Necklace, $50 $24

Jules Smith makes so beautiful pieces. This silver option is no different. A great pendant to cap things off.

Sole Society, Antique Gold Mix Coin Layered Lariat, $34

A great mix of gold and brass for a more festival type look.

Bloomingdale's, Baublebar Facets Layered Necklace, $42

Look at these simple shapes that center the eye all of the way up. A great piece.

A simple lariat necklace is great for a busy print top or dress because it's thin and sleek without being distracting.

Sharp Turn Ahead

I didn't intend for this post to be monochrome, but when I was putting this one together it turned out that way. Today's trend is the asymmetrical hem dress. Something angular and unexpected but in this case it's in an LBD or an LB and a little white in there too D.

Asos, Liquorish Asymmetric Dress with Plunge Neckline, $112 $49

Need a dress under $50 for a wedding? This is it.

Shoptiques, Lumiere Striped Asymmetrical Dress, $44

This dress is brunch ready with a denim jacket and some white sneakers.

Nordstrom, Adelyn Rae Asymmetrical Crepe Sheath Dress, $88

Obsessed with this dress. The line variation to make a pattern is killer.

Amazon, Monrow Women's Sporty Slash Asymmetric Maxi Dress, $82

So sleek. I love the long sleeves but the sporty look for a cool summer night out.

Such a simple hem detail that really changes the personality of the dress. Asymmetric lines are drastic and a bit aggressive in the best way possible.

Coming Up Flowers

Happy Monday lovebugs,
This weekend in DC was full of 65 degree weather and outdoor fun. By fun I mean happy hour, dinner, shopping, and magazine reading. Just in case you were wondering if I ran or bicycled (word?) or something.

This weather is making me feel inspired. Last week we looked at floral pencil skirts and today I thought we would continue the floral trend with some heels. Perfect for spring and colors for days.

Express, Skinny Strap Sleek Heeled Sandal, $79 $40

Half off and dying for a night out. Come on, $40 with some white jeans and a silk blouse, yes.

Nordstrom Rack, Ivanka Trump Indico Floral Pump, $119 $69

Planning  to wear any white eyelet this summer? These are going to be your go to.

Ann Taylor, Eryn Floral Kitten Heels, $98 $49 and free shipping with code CYBER50

I feel it's only fair to tell you when I buy things that I blog. This is one of those times. $49. Free shipping. Hello.

Bloomingdale's, Vince Camuto Kain Floral Print Pointed Tow High Heels, $98

These shoes are made for strutting. A real statement maker during wedding season too!

Spring means florals and I love to see them pop on heels, especially when the pattern continues all of the way down the heel. A small detail that makes a difference.
