I am not one to school you on what hats are most flattering, what works for your face and outfit, however, these four hats have changed my opinion on hats. I was always one to shy away from hats since I was going off the assumption that my head was too big to wear them let alone look good in them. That however is wrong according to my hair stylist who told me my head is small. This new found size of my head has me googling brixton hats and fiddler caps and baseball caps alike. I’m hooked. I narrowed it down to four I regularly loose around the house, chide Reid for stealing and will likely be seen on my head on the gram 🙂 Happy Friday!

1. BASEBALL HAT I like the classic Yankees!

2. RED CAP this one is the most flattering and versatile, I can’t stop wearing it

3. BERET Get one in every color! Also in pink

4. TRUCKER HAT This is the cherry on top of a cool casual look

More chic faux fur:

Happy Saturday! Mom is here and we kicked off our weekend at the cutest diner. My mom loves mom and pop diners since as long as I can remember. Recently, I came across these cute taupe lace up heels online and they were on sale! I picked up this red bag as well and paired them with these comfy rips. I’ve gotten tons of questions on these shoes from instagram stories and your comments that I had to post them here as well. Hope you have a lovely weekend with your nearest and dearest!

Pink Sneakers:

It hasn’t always been my favorite color, but lately I’ve been gravitating to it! It’s a great accent color that has even my girls jealous, “A pink bag mommy!? Can I have it?” What else can look great with black, grey and denim and still look classic and girly? It’s pink! Don’t forget to balance it with a monochromatic look as too many colors will make pink look a little pepto bismol. Go wear your pink this weekend, and tag me when you do. I’m planning on wearing the above cardigan aptly named “Saturday Cardigan” perfect for crisp mornings.

Happy Weekend!

I love a cozy cardigan with a tank or silk cami



 

I love some flats that can be styled up (with a pencil skirt) or down with jeans. Here I styled them with all white and a cozy grey cardigan. I live in flats so I included more from the sale below. Happy Monday!

I’ve been planning all week for the Nordstrom Anniversary sale coming up, who’s excited? I did some pre-sale shopping today and I have to say, this year’s selection is better than last years. I came back home to my Lego loving bunch who make the coolest Lego houses for hours and hours of the day. I love that this outfit is still mom-friendly with wedges, comfy jeans, and a versatile top. For warmer days, I wear cutoffs with this top. Stay tuned for more sale updates, Happy Monday!

Honestly, few things make my heart skip like this stripe and camel duo. We’re currently encountering a major heat wave so optional layering is a must! I own a million soft tanks, from white to black, soft to light weight and you should too. I like to pair the indispensable tank with striped shorts or cutoffs, a camel coat or rain jacket. If you’re looking for multiple options, this combo also works with flip flops for a BBQ on the beach or a low heel for dinner with friends.

 

corset top ANTHROPOLOGIE   :: jeans NSF at BARNEYS NYC I also like this crop flare version HERE :: heels MODE COLLECTIVE and SIMILAR ::

Three things I love about this top: its linen, oversize and has a corset. I got so many compliments while wearing it for date night I had to share with you. Not to mention, I paired if with black jeans that look great with summer tops. Here are some of my faves:

Because date night is sometimes short as in we only have time for coffee and dessert, I included two dinner places and two coffee shops we love here in LA.

4 Places You Won’t Wanna Miss in LA

Republique – great ambiance, lovely tile floor and yummy brussels sprouts.

Civil Coffee – yummy almond milk mochas in a marble and brass filed haven.

Winsome – hip diner, yummy everything.

Eightfold Coffee – minimalist design, friendly staff, and great matcha green tea.

I love sweats, don’t get me wrong,  I even wore them traveling yesterday, but I think we all would agree, it’s difficult to feel glamorous in them. Curious? Read on:

4 Ways to Look Polished in Sweats:

FLESH COLOR ELONGATES. Make sure its nude – flesh colored sandals elongate the leg, especially heels. I also like these stripe sandals with an all white look.

MAKE A POINT. If you’re a flats girl and can’t wear heels like my sister, opt for flats with a point. They will be a lot more flattering.

DON’T GO BAGGY ON TOP. I love these palazzo pants with a slim tank or tee but if I wore a large boxy top, I’d loose my shape. Opt for slim on top for an overall flattering look.

KNOT BAD. Even after I wore this tank to go to coffee with the hubs I decided midday to knot the top. It gave an additional interest and slimming affect – and I liked it better than just a plain tuck. Try it!

5 Tanks and Tees:

Comment with your questions, how do you like to chicly wear sweats? I’m all ears.

I’m so excited to partner with Rebecca Minkoff as they launch their new line of watches! I chose this RM gold tone studded leather wrap watch – loved the double wrap because it looks most similar to jewelry. I paired my brown leather accessories with a white overall dress and white top I’m obsessed with because of its ruffle three-quarter sleeve. Such a great buy. See more RM Watches here! Have a great weekend, we’re excited to get back home to LA next week.

 

The best way to get out the door is have some favorite basics on hand. I’m loving the embroidered hem on these jeans, linen blend stripes and not too high block heels. And I never leave home without a large mom bag full of snacks, heels, and a small bag.
