Chiffon Dreams

Is there really anything better than the light, airy feel of a chiffon dress in the summer?





How about these options available here?
I can just see them with a strappy sandal and maybe a floppy hat!

Nautical Navy

There's just something about navy dressed up with a pop of colour, embroidered flowers or stripes. Even though it's getting warmer, navy just feels so fresh.











Love these picks! All available at J.Crew Factory.

This/That

Sometimes I want the real thing. Designer, mall brand, whatever. I want the tag or the softness of a brand I know and love.

Other times, I want throwaway fashion that I don't care about after a season.


THIS OR THAT:




















THIS: Sperry Topsider for J.Crew - $114.00 USD
OR
THAT: Soda Zinky - $24.20 USD


What do you think?

All That Glitters Is Gold

I've never been huge on metallics, but something about gold this season is making me smile. It reminds me of long summer nights where the sun shines late into the evening.

Hollywood Noir

 Sometimes, it's so disappointing to look at the women in Hollywood today.
At those times, I look back at Audrey Hepburn, Veronica Lake, Sandra Dee and Elizabeth Taylor. Stunning! All of them were just stunning!

White Hot

Is there really anything more versatile than a white tee?
Perhaps only the ubiquitous white button-down.

Still, I find myself collecting white tees. I've been on a v-neck binge lately, but also truly adore a good scoop neck. My old habit has been to buy fairly inexpensive options, like Forever 21's.




However, I tried J. Crew's vintage cotton v-neck and have been absolutely hooked. Just one note: wash it on the gentle cycle. It's thin and comfy, but it will shred if you wash it on a regular setting too often.



I haven't tried it, but I hear T by Alexander Wang is amazing!



Do you have a favourite basic?

Everlong

Thinking about spring always makes me think of summer. Warm summer nights and the breeze off the lake. I love a good maxi dress in the summer. Or even a shorter, lighter summer dress.
How about you?

Sparkles!

Who doesn't love a little glitter?

 From Miu Miu's 2010 collection. I still love these.

If Dorothy had liked blue...



 And the Louboutin's. I am so in love with these shoes.

Exotic Jewelry

What's the next best thing to an exotic field trip?
Trinkets from exotic places!
Or at least, exotic looking pieces.
