Checkered & Taxi Cabs :: Asos Dress & Valentinos





Morning everyone! I'm looking forward to the rest of the week. My fiance is back in town from doing a little traveling and we're going to the beach this weekend! 

Today's post is one of my favorite dresses from Asos. I still regret not getting a size smaller. I'd recommend if you're ever in question about the size. Buy both sizes and return the one that doesn't fit.  Asos is great about returns and exchanges. If they continue their policy, I'm a customer for life.  A similar store is Nordstroms.  If you don't have a Nordstrom's debit card (a card that links to you debit card) I'd highly recommend getting one. It gives you rewards back on your purchase and you're also invited to the pre-sales at Nordy's. They also have such a great return and exchange policy.  So hold on to those receipts! If something breaks or is damage, they are typically really great about helping you.  

Hope you enjoy the post. The checkered dress seemed to go well with the taxi cabs.

Flowers & Ponytails:: Floral Pants & Coach Bag

 
 

Hi everyone! Hope you had a good weekend! I spent the weekend wedding planning and enjoying some of my favorite thai takeout in New York! It was a beautiful weekend in New York, I heard it was the best weekend of the year. I think from here on out, we'll start seeing darker colors and longer sleeves.

With fall right around the corner, I've been prioritizing my clothing.  What can still be worn in Fall/Winter and what has to be worn ASAP.  Lately I've been really good about getting rid of things. If I haven't worn it all summer, there's probably a reason.  These flower pants and white top were worn to my engagement party in St. Louis. The outfit looked cute together, but nothing too fancy. When in doubt, I typically over dress than under dress.  The one good thing about cropped pants is that they typically fit me really well.  So if you're on the shorter side and tired of getting things hemmed. Try on a few pairs of cropped pants/jeans. You'll be surprised how well they fit us tiny people. 

Have a good week!

Meeting the girls out :: Sheer top & Valentino heels



Happy Friday everyone! I've spent the last week traveling around the Northeast.  Today I'm in Boston, but sitting at the airport right now ready to board my flight to New York.  I'm looking forward to sleeping in on Saturday and having a cup of coffee on the balcony :)

Lately I've been wearing a lot of black and white.  I try and stay away from all black outfits because it can seem a little dull.  These pants have been a great investment.  They are so comfy and great for going out to meet your girlfriends for a drink.  I'm a little short, but for anyone taller, they are a great piece for your closet.

 I'm slowly getting my closet prepared for fall! Love the blue, emerald and red for the season. Just a few months away and we'll all be back to layering and leather.  So many great colors and prints this season.  Two of my favorite will be houndstooth and the never ending trendy plaid.

Last night I attended a Poshmark event in SF.  If you haven't downloaded the app, do it right now! You'll find so many great items on the app and you can also make money.  I cleaned out my closet and made a few extra dollars to refresh my closet.  The Founder and CEO, Manish, is such a great entrepreneur.  He is also the founder of Kaboodle...some of you may remember.  It's amazing that he came up with this app and it has grown so quickly in the last year.  I've also had the pleasure of meeting Stephanie Palmeri, who is a Priciple at SoftTechVC and is part of the founding team and took part of one of the first Posh Parties!  I wish the Poshmark team the best of success in the future.

Hope you enjoy the app.  If you ever have questions, feel free to email me.  I'd be happy to give anyone advice on buying and selling on Poshmark.
