It’s been a while!  A lot has happened in my world but who cares about that.  Really, all you need to know is that it’s finally starting to feel a bit like fall in LA.  Exciting news? Yes. Because we dress for the seasons around here and it can get pretty unbearable to wear plaids and pants in 90 degree heat.  There is no telling how long this cool-down will last and frankly I’m using that term generously, it’s still in the mid 70’s… but here’s to hoping!

For these months that are cool but not cold, and warm but not steamy, I look to transitional pieces.  This feminine blazer from J.Crew is exactly that. It’s perfect for pulling any look together, any season.  Great with ripped jeans, a baseball hat, a floral dress or in my case today, shorts—a fitted blazer is really girl’s best friend. And this one gets fancy with a pre-popped collar.  I paired it with searsucker shorts, a pink blouse and some riding boots.  I actually had to borrow these boots at the last minute because I forgot mine! Luckily my photographer, Shara, had a pair lying around. 

Switch in a pair of heels and this is the easiest outfit to wear to work, while still looking appropriate. I guess that’s the power of a good blazer. Insta-classic!

Casual Friday.

Get ready for the weekend, because it’s just moments away!   I put together this cozy little outfit that feels just perfect for a Friday afternoon.   It’s always fun to mix different color shades together- here you’ll see I did it with greens and blues.  They make an outfit pop and bring even the most basic ensembles to life.  Today, I paired a neon yellowish-green sweater with a winter green jacket and tied it all together with a blue necklace and blue jeans.   Now all I need is a hot chocolate and a ticket to the Mile High Stadium and I’d be ready for an AMAZING weekend! (In case I haven’t already told you guys, I’m a huge PATRIOTS fan and I will be spending my weekend praying and rooting for them to win… oh and trying to scheme my way over to Denver to see the game live.)

So whether you’re planning to get some work done, take a little weekend get away, cheer for your favorite team till your face turns red, or curl up with a book and not leave the couch for an entire day- enjoy whatever it is that makes you happy and have a wonderful weekend!

 

And GO PATS!
