Crazy for Color : Orange!

I've always loved color and this season bright & bold colors are front & center. This Summer my color of the season is Orange! It's bright and fun and easily adds a little spice to any outfit. Here are a few of my favorite pieces this season :)


 Tory Burch Reva flats in "Habanero Pepper"







The latest addition to my handbag collection, my Milly "Andie" satchel...


I've been looking for an orange handbag for quite a while, when I spotted this one I knew it was the perfect shade of orange! 


One of my favorite persimmon colored dresses with turquoise nails...black, white and turquoise are beautiful with orange and pop when set against or with it. 


I'm so excited to try both of these bold colors. "Orange, It's Obvious" matches my Milly perfectly & "Fear or Desire" is a fantastic tangerine orange.  



Even my adorable Mommma has taken a liking to orange :)

I hope you all are enjoying the beauty of this seasons bold & bright colors! 

Much love,

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Last night we celebrated my Dad's 60th Birthday! It was a great party, but the week leading up to it was beyond hectic. Of course I found myself scrambling to find an outfit at the last minute. The afternoon before the party I managed to sneak in a few hours of shopping and I found an adorable dress by Milly. I love its vintage flare, color blocking and classy but sassy style. 


Being that I am only 5'2" I had the dress shortened a few inches so that it now falls a few inches above my knees.  I paired my dress with a simple nude heel. 

I used one of my favorite clutches for the evening. I have used this  Marc Jacobs clutch so many times, as it also has a chain strap and can be worn as a sholder bag. It's a great size and its details complimented my outfit well. 


For hair and makeup we really played up the 1960's edge, with a fun poofed and curled ponytail. We kept my makeup simple but really accentuated my eyes with lashes and liner. I had several people approach me throughout the night and tell me that I reminded them Christina Hendrick's from Mad Men. I have a great makeup and hair artist who I've worked with for quite a while and she's fantastic at bringing that vintage style into my hair and makeup. I was in a bit of hurry so I didn't take pictures, but If I find some I will try to post them.
