A Short Story

Fell in love with this necklace at Forever 21 and decided to build an outfit around it. Focused on basic colors, a simple white top and a pair of steely-gray shorts kept the focus on the cool pendant. But I couldn't resist adding on vibrant satin sandals that reminded me of origami. Where to look?...Precious pendant or pretty purple?

Classic Sunday

It was a family museum day so off to Exposition Park we went! I was in a breezy, relaxed mood and I this is what I pulled out of the closet that day. It felt right to have an impromptu photo shoot and I love how the pictures reflect the light, playful time we were all having. They actually make me think of the word frolic...come to think of it, that's exactly what we did!

On a Mission

My own take on the military inspired look...start with a pair of cargos, a basic white tee, throw on a vest in a nautical blue...and voila! Opted for a pair of heeled sandals so as not to go overboard (excuse the pun) with the whole theme thing. Simple! I bet you can find something in your closet to do your own version with. Go ahead and attack!
