In The Nude

Morning friends...Sorry for yet another shoe post but I have been on a major beige binge lately when it comes to shopping. This is especially my favorite when it comes to footwear as I love that the neutral color goes so well with everything in your wardrobe. Not only can a nude shoe can elongate the leg they work so well when you're wearing bright colors on top and need to tone it down to avoid being too matchy-matchy. So whether it comes to pumps, sandals or flats...a neutral nude shoe is always a smart investment. I guarantee they will be worn on heavy rotation and a closet favorite in little time!

Weekend Wear - Birthday Suit

I feel like turning thirty five is a significant birthday and worthy of a treat to gift myself. This dress by Diane Von Furstenburg might just be the front runner for a perfect birthday dinner date along with some other upcoming travel, bridal showers and so on. I mean it's named the Heidi dress, so it's destined to be in my closet right???

Weekend Wear - Mixing Prints & Textures

Earlier this week I purchased the tweed blazer below at my local J.Crew fall fashion event. I have been dreaming of wearing just as it is laid out below and hope that this weekend brings some cooler weather so I can enjoy being cozy and comfortable strolling around town with my main squeeze.

Have a great weekend everyone!

neon - two ways

I have to admit that I am only fan of the neon trend in small doses so an outfit doesn't scream "look at me - I glow in the dark - break out the blacklights!" While I usually adore a pop of color in a fab accessory this time around I thought I would try to find another way to incorporate the bright color into a look that didn't follow my usual fashion rules. When I spotted the shirt below I knew it fit the bill perfectly for todays look. I think of all the neon colors, the flashy yellow has to be my most favorite. I is perfectly paired with whites and greys which can be dressed up or dressed down as shown below.

Color Crush - Oxblood

It's no news flash that oxblood is most definitely the "it" color of the moment. I have been searching for the right item to add to my closet in this winey shade then I spotted some vamp red cords on a lunch break. They were perfect for the fall and when I first wore them I instantly became obsessed with the color in every form it was available. They are dark enough for my taste to not truly stand out too much on the bottom half and they coordinate with so many other colors effortlessly {my favorite is to mix with golds and nudes}. I was anxious to pair my new favorite color with my mirrored gold pumps and these dressed down pants fit the bill for the much dressier shoe. I have a feeling this will become one of my favorite go to looks for the fall.

What's your opinion on this color, is this hue for you???

party to outfit

While scoping out an inspiring image for my latest installment of room to outfit I came across this image of a barn soiree that took my breath away. Most people would file it under wedding's and events but I immediately took a mental photograph and put into my house loves. I adore barns, ever since moving to New England and deciding this is where my husband and I would call home, I knew I wanted a barn on a future property. If/when John and I ever venture to the burbs, this is exactly what I imagine our barn would look like. He will likely agree on the exterior appearance but what we do with the inside will be a whole other story. He dreams of his very own lab space where he can continue on with his complicated projects of solving the wireless worlds communication issues (thank you in advance for this honey). I however would likely have the barn adorned with a killer kitchen, guest bedroom, entertaining space & outdoor living room just like my beloved Ina Garten (seriously look at this link, you will be wide eyed like a kid in a candy store like moi). It would be detached from the main house and be a retreat for our guests and family to stay when they came to visit - a girl can dream!

Ahhhh - for the love of all things pretty can you even stand how exquisite everything is displayed in the image below, beautiful crisp summer evening, family around a big table, lounge area for after dinner drinks & a happy occasion to celebrate with people you love. The clean white exterior with the large sliding doors and perfectly draped curtains have me squealing with glee.

The Look

If I could day dream up an ensemble that was comfortable yet chic the below about sums it up. I can easily drift off into a wonderful evening with my friends & family, drinking good wine & laughing about our glory days snuggled up in those comfy chenille throws.

p.s. I know that Lanvin sweater is ridiculously over priced but I couldn't resist its gorgeousness, here is a more affordable version with a separate flower pin here.
