friday five: wide brim menswear-inspired hat, speckled moto jacket, pre-layered necklaces, nude sandal booties, and elizabeth and james nirvana white perfume
This week I’ve had fall on the brain, especially since it’s now the first of August {yikes!}. I really want to invest in a chic fall hat and this menswear-inspired one would go with everything. I really love how it looks on the model! In the transitional period where it’s still too hot for boots, these cut-out booties would be a nice choice! They’d look great with breezy dresses or cropped and distressed jeans. Lately I’ve been wearing a few delicate necklaces at a time {see today’s outfit post} but when I saw this pre-layered necklace I was sold. Love that it won’t get as tangled and will always stay perfectly in place! This Elizabeth and James perfume is a new obsession of mine. I smelled it the other day and seriously had to hunt down the girl to ask which one it was. There was some thought that it was one of Tom Fords perfumes but nope it was confirmed as this feminine and sophisticated Elizabeth & James scent. I told you I’m obsessed with perfumes!
What are your plans this weekend? I’m celebrating my best friends bday tomorrow and also doing a little cleaning and closet purging. I’ve been trying to stay on top of getting rid of the clothes I don’t wear anymore {mainly because the husband keeps saying I’m cutting into his side of the closet} and I usually sell to Crossroads in LA. I don’t think I have time to make it to one of their stores this weekend but I just found out they have a cool sell by mail option where you request a bag from their site (with a pre-paid postage label on it!) and fill it with clothes you’d like to sell. You can choose either cash or trade credit which is awesome. Soo that’s what I’ll be doing. I think I’ll be requesting a few bags though! haha! I’m also going to be doing some packing because Matthew and I are heading on a little family vacation next week. We’re going to a lake so I’m hoping I can work on my summer list. I have a third book to read and that real tan needs to happen! Have a great one everyone! See ya Monday!

Some of my favorite online finds from this week! A pretty pink striped dress {gah I love! And it also comes in navy}, a pair of t-strap flats in navy {so pretty and perfect!}, a new floral iPhone case, a classic nude tote for work and play, and a dainty pair of wishbone earrings {getting these to replace the ones I lost on a shoot}. What things have you been loving this week?
Happy Friday everyone!

the friday five

June 28, 2014
This post is a result of my late night window scrolling {like window shopping…get it?? hehe}. 
I love this blue lace dress. It reminds me of my cream colored one from last summer which was a huge favorite. It would be so pretty with some flat sandals, or comfy wedges. Speaking of shoes,  I feel like I’ve talked about these gladiator sandals in the past, but yet here they are again. I was thinking about getting the black and white python print, but now I’m torn between that and a classic brown. Trying to figure out which one I’d wear more. The good thing is that python can be a neutral too!
This hot pink suit is so eye catching, especially with the lovely scallop details. And the top reminds me of a bow. Girly beach girl perfection, don’t you think? I’m definitely more of a lipstick girl but during the summer months I like a little gloss. This shade is inspired by Nars’s most popular blush {you know, the one with the scandalous name}. It gives a perfect peachy glow.
Lately I feel like I’ve been a crazy nester getting our house together. I need to share an update on that soon but the biggest news is that our couch is finally ready. Word to the wise, if you want a couch, make sure you prepare for an 8-10 week waiting period. I can’t wait to get back to my TV binging days and this pom throw would be perfect to cuddle with!
Happy Friday everyone!!
