Tiers of Pink

Top: Ann Taylor; Skirt: Ann Taylor;

Belt: Target; Shoes: Jimmy Choo (similar);

Necklace: Talbots (similar); Earrings: Made by Me;

Watch: Emporio Armani

I've been putting off wearing this skirt all summer and I can't believe I waited so long! It was one part fear and one part confusion on how to wear it to work. But I threw all caution to the wind and donned it on a random Wednesday work day! As for how to wear it, I took some guidance from Ann Taylor and added my own flair.

What I really wanted to do was break out in a ChaCha all day but I didn't have a dance partner. Instead, I bowled my way into the Third Round of the Wii bowling tournament going on at work. All proceeds to enter the tournament go toward United Way. Here's hoping I make it to the finals, where I might just break out into a ChaCha if I win!

 

 

 

 

Eyelet Hippie

Top: Anthropologie (similar); Jeans: Loft (similar);

Belt: Target; Bangles: gift and Target set; 

Shoes: Stuart Weitzman (gift); Sunnies: Prada (gift)

Watch: Emporio Armani (gift)

I felt a little 70s in my approach last Friday which is just fine by me! One of my favorite clothing eras for sure! The eyelet, belt and wood bracelets were my homage, but I kept everything in check by adding modern boyfriend jeans and espadrille wedges. A little hippie inspiration never hurt anyone! If only I had a flower wreath for my head and cool patches for my jeans! Don't think I can't make that happen!

Happy Early Birthday!

Top: Ann Taylor; Pants: J.Crew; Cuff: Ann Taylor (gift);

Shoes: Burberry Prorsum via Net-A-Porter; 

Watch: Emporio Armani (gift)

 I purchased this top a couple of weeks ago at Ann Taylor's summer sale and forgot all about it. I found it this weekend while straightening up. It was still in the bag wrapped in tissue paper! It was like my birthday only four months early. Who doesn't love that!

What I love about this top is the contrast piping in faux leather. You can't really see it in the photos, but I feel like it adds a bit of luxe to such a simple top. And the little zipper is so cute! You know me! I'm a sucker for details. And the leather cuff with large gold lock really pulls it all together. Simple yet such a statement!
