office hours

I am constantly switching and changing my look before I head into the office in the morning. I'm convinced that it's got less to do with my outfit options and more to do with the fact that my imagination is pretty limited at 8 a.m. So to add a little inspo to your morning routine, here is a fresh workwear look from Banana Republic Factory. Not only is the jacket perfect for transitioning to spring, but the Devon Pant is sophisticated, comfy and endlessly versatile. With a flattering stretch fit that slims in all the right places and cropped leg, these look great with sneakers, knee-high boots, cropped sweaters and so much more. To top that off, they come in a wide variety of fabrics (bi-strech, suede, leather, denim) and colors!  Bonus? They're great for adding a little polish to your basic tops and tees. For my casual dress code today, I tossed them on with a classic striped top and modern mules. If you're workplace is more formal, try pairing them with a blazer, printed tank and heels.

BEND THE RULES

Los Angeles, CA

Some rules are meant to be broken, especially when it comes to style. That being said, when it's a matter of wearing white, I have always been a fan of donning it before Memorial Day. After all, why should it be a faux pas to rock it on May 29th yet totally acceptable on June 1st? Pure madness!

So when I received this crisp pair from AG Jeans the other day, I had to find a reason to wear them immediately. Besides being insanely comfy (like all of their styles) this pair takes your ripped skinnies to a whole new level with edgy step hems and an ultra high-waist. I can already see myself wearing these everywhere over the coming season and today, I paired them with a high-low top from SHEIN. As you guys know, I've always been a sucker for stripes but I love how this tank puts a unique spin (with a longer silhouette) on an age-old print.  The resulting look is fresh, playful and great for a busy spring day.

So what do you guys think? Is white before Memorial Day ok in your book?

TIE ONE ON

You don’t need to travel this spring to give your wardrobe an eastern vibe. Kimono-style dresses are trending big time right now, giving us old Japan mixed with modernity. Equal parts timeless and of-the-moment, the tie-together frock looks best when covered in florals, whimsical designs and elegant embroidery. 

I adore this pastel pink version from SHEIN because it's effortlessly romantic. It's lightweight with traditional sleeves and the front-slit makes it especially flirty. It's a super easy throw-on-and-go date night dress! I wore it for a mini staycation this past weekend up in Malibu but it would also be perfect for a more tropical getaway like Cabo, Hawaii or even Tahiti... (hey, a girl can dream, right?)

Anyone have any exciting plans for Spring Break? I'm headed back east towards the SNOW!
