Mondaze

If you have visited my blog before, I am sure you have caught onto the fact that I love bell bottoms. These floral bells are so comfortable and cute I think I may just live in them. 

As my birthday is sneaking up on me, I have been eyeing the new beautiful Novella Royalle bells. They are so gorgeous. Make sure to check them out!

Touches of Olive Green

Here are some of my weekend looks. Who doesn't love a casual, weekend outfit thrown together for comfort, ease, and style factors? That is what I was all about this weekend. It seems I was drawn to olive green this weekend, with both my Free People tank and my Nordstrom utility jacket. 

A jacket like the one in my second look is so versatile. You can wear it with something frilly and feminine for a touch of masculinity or you can pair it with shorts and your favorite graphic tank/shirt/sweater for a "just threw this on" casual feel. It is all about layers as fall approaches. Play around with different fabrics, lengths, and dimensions to get your layered looks down pat. Avoid too much bulk at any one point of your body to make your frame look larger than it truly is.

Coconut Vibes

Who doesn't love Wildfox Couture? They have the most darling tops and sweaters. They are as sweet as candy and I love to collect them. This coconut top is perfect for the warm, summer weather that we have been experiencing here in Southern California. I am definitely not complaining. 

This top as well as many other of my favorite pieces in my closet are from Swirl Boutique in San Clemente. They have the best selection of stylish, fashion forward, and bohemian clothes and accessories. Check out their San Clemente or Encinitas location and shop your little hearts out.

Sunday Celebration

Oh, my goodness. I wish I could convey the joy and happiness I have been lucky enough to experience the last week and a half. I have been on an amazing vacation with my family and was offered a career opportunity that truly answered my prayers. 

This weekend I was able to celebrate with family and prepare for my new beginnings. I wore one of my favorite simple and sweet dresses - a true, beautiful bargain from Forever 21. Gold accents finished off the look.

Oh, how I love my husband! He spoiled me with a great lunch date at one of my favorite restaurants today.
