We’re having one of those gloomy LA mornings where all I can wear is a pair of warm pants and a chunky knit. But I so wish I was wearing this stripes and floral outfit. I love the thin stripes on the blouse and the tiny floral print on the midi skirt. For being two different prints, I feel like they balance each other out. Metallic mint sandals would be perfect, as well as some pops of happy yellow. Knowing LA, it will be warm soon enough for me to wear a similar outfit!
I love that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner! I’ve always loved the holiday for the prevalence of hearts, candy, and all things pink and red!

I love picking out gifts for friends and family during the holidays. It’s always fun to hunt for cute, and affordable, things that you know will make someone you love happy. Accessories are one of my main standards for the women in my life. I love finding a pretty bracelet or pair of earrings that they wouldn’t normally buy for themselves. I also love giving home items. Candles, for example, are something you can never have too many of! At least that’s my opinion {don’t ask Matthew!}.
