Cool Squares

Top and Skirt: Whistles, Sunnies: Illesteva, Boots: Vintage

Cousin, giant bows are right up my alley but I would not be able to justify the cost of the Saint Laurent ones.  What I "could" justify is any of the items in the Louis Vuitton Spring 2013 collection.  Any time I see these perfect and colorful iconic squares, I swoooooooon!  My concern is that if I somehow won the lottery and snagged one of these "to die" for outfits, I would look like a walking checkerboard.  

Back to reality.... 

You know I love the British brand Whistles and scored a color block outfit that is way more affordable and practical.  Probably going to wear this to work this week and hopefully I don't get clowned.  It actually happens often.

PS: I hate how these boots look with this outfit.  BAH.

I Don't Miss You, Winter.

Top: Equipment . Skirt: ASOS (sold out). Necklace: H&M (old)

I'm loving your floral dress!  The black and white stripes feel very Dolce & Gabbana-y.  Speaking of florals...


I bought this trumpet skirt waaaaay back in the fall after I saw it on Le Catch (one of my favorite blogs).  I only got to wear it once before winter reared its ugly head and have been saving it for spring all these months.  The jacquard fabric and flattering cut were a no-brainer.  That and it was a total steal for $60 on ASOS.

Weekend Inspiration: Saint Laurent

Bow Tie: ASOS.

For months I've been eyeing the oversized black bow ties from Saint Laurent Spring 2013.  They would do wonders for my button down shirts.  Admittedly, I've sunk some serious cash on some not-so-practical accessories, but this one's a little too steep, even for me...$585!!!

Luckily, I found a much, much, much cheaper alternative here.  Added to my cart and checking out!  Stay tuned for it on a future blog post.

Two Prints, One Dress

Dress: Juicy Couture, Sunnies: Chanel

Lets forget this "cougar" nonsense and talk about that Ferragamo clutch.  I see you mentioned vintage. I can't seem to maneuver through a vintage shop-- even the amazing ones.  Truly a great find cousin-- it's a great purchase.  

Florals are everywhere this season and I really liked the addition of stripes on this dress.  From all my spring dresses, this is 100% my favorite print.  Well, for now.  Of course tomorrow I'll love something else.  Typical right?

Animal Instincts

You don't have to ask me twice about throwing on an animal print.  Make mine leopard, please!  So, I originally bought this printed tank with a matching pencil skirt last spring from Zara, but it was a little too leopard-y so it's been sitting in my closet all winter.  Your post inspired me to dust it off and man it up with my favorite boyfriend jeans and vintage clutch.  What do you think?  Does it reek of cougar?
