Friday Feelings

Cheers to FRIDAY! It marks the start of weekend and for me, the beginning of a little three day getaway. I'm road-tripping with some friends over to a ranch in Arizona --the land of BBQ's, beer tastings, long hikes and horseback rides. I can't wait! It's a place that I've been wanting to visit for a while, so I'm psyched to finally be able to check it off my list.

This casual outfit (that I've been living in lately) will definitely be making its way into my suitcase. The striped cold-shoulder top from ROMWE is perfect for fall. Flowy yet flattering, it pairs well with ripped skinnies, like I wore here, but I also really love it tucked into a pencil skirt or shorts. Oh and I'm a big fan of this new crossbody from the WHOWHATWEAR collection at Target! A neutral bag is always in season and this one is quickly becoming one of my favorites.

Have an amazing weekend everyone!

Summer in the City

During the whacky-weather month of September I'm always a bit confused about how exactly to dress. It's warmer than it's been all year but everywhere I turn I see plush fall styles. And while I'd love to add on a layer like the magazines instruct, it just simply too hot. It was 100 degrees in LA yesterday!

So what should you wear during this transitional time? I say stick to basic, cross-seasonal pieces. These floral shorts are exactly that. I snagged them a couple of weeks ago (for $15) and knew that they would be great for both summer and fall. Perfect for the office or an afternoon of shopping (which is where I wore them here) you can easily swap out my summery top for a sweater when things begin to cool off.

Day & Night

TGIF.

Today I am keeping things easy, quick and casual.

In an effort to shake it up a bit, I strayed away from my usual lighter, brighter look and went with a black and gray pairing. I finally gave the trendy lace-up top a try and paired it with some go-to trouser pants. The result? A flirty look that works well for both day and night. A casual day at the office, happy hour, a lunch with friends-- it works for all three!

Have a great weekend everyone!
