I decided to give the track pants trend a try and I have to say that I'm liking the look. When they're in classic black like this pair from Old Navy, it makes it easy to dress up or down. I love that they can take me from Zumba to cocktails just by switching shoes (I was wearing Converse Chucks with this exact outfit for brunch earlier in the day). Bonus points for comfort!
It's officially autumn and although I'm a little sad that summer is over, I am looking forward to the changing leaves, crisp air and pumpkin spice lattes. Dressing for this transitional season can be tricky, since the mornings are cool and by the afternoon I'm usually sweating through my layers. This breezy dress topped with a leather jacket has fixed my transitional-dressing woes so far. How do you dress for the fluctuating temperatures as the seasons change?
Happy Friday everyone! Here is the second outfit I styled with AMI Clubwear (see the first one here). Kimonos are a new favourite layering piece of mine (also styled one here). They're fantastic to throw on in place of a jacket or sweater because they're incredibly lightweight and I love their boho chic feel. Bonus: they make any outfit look effortless.
Happy September everyone! I can't believe the last long weekend of the summer has ended, but cheer up darlings! It's technically still summer since fall officially starts on September 23. Until then, I'll be keeping the summer vibes going for as long as I can in outfits like this flirty floral romper from AMI Clubwear. This is my first of three outfits that I've styled with the trendsetting clothing shop so be sure to visit my blog in the coming weeks for the rest of my looks!

I've been on a self-imposed shopping "diet" since summer started. I'm making an effort to be more creative with wearing what is already in my closet (this outfit is proof), and keeping myself occupied with other things (like cooking) so that I'm not shopping. It's not to say that I don't buy anything. But the things I do buy are items I believe will stand the test of time and allow me to wear for years to come.
"Buy less. Choose well. Make it last. Quality, not quantity."
To say I love this dress is an understatement. There was a week where I wore it three times because it's the perfect breezy, flowy piece of clothing I want to wear in the heat of summer. I paired the dress with these Sam Edelman sandals I scored at Nordstrom Rack in downtown Seattle when I was there last week for Jay-Z and Beyonce's concert. The shoes were promptly broken in after dancing all night in them (and walking an hour after the concert trying to catch a cab back to the hotel - ouch!).
I'm literally on the run today. Eleanor and I are headed out the door on a mini road trip to Seattle to catch Jay-Z and Beyonce's On the Run tour tonight! Coincidentally, this is almost exactly what we did one year ago. Be sure to check my Instagram for my snaps from the concert!
