I hope you had a good weekend!  I love political dramas so I spent most of it watching House of Cards.  I only have 2 episodes left and can't wait to see how the season finishes. No spoilers please!

While my style can change depending on my mood, I often find myself coming back to outfits that are easy, yet polished.  For me, one of the easiest ways to achieve this look is to wear several pieces in the same color so I don't have to worry about matching several different colors (see here, here, here).  A little texture, like the leather patches on the jacket, can prevent monochromatic looks from being boring.  All black is always a safe classic choice and I love the edge the boyfriend jeans give the outfit (It's about as edgy as I get, lol).      

What are some of your go to tricks for an easy, polished look?

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

What I Want - July

1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10

I've decided to bring back a feature that I used to do weekly, What I Want - Wednesdays.  My goal is to do it once or twice a month (probably not on Wednesdays so I might need a new name...) to share some of the items I'm craving.

By now, everyone has probably seen a lot of selections from the Nordstrom sale, so I didn't include any of those items, but there are so many great choices! 

I know summer is almost over but I still just want to wear dresses and bright colors (especially since it will be warm for a long time in Atlanta...).  I may or may not have already caved on this gorgeous maxi dress.  I stalked it on the Asos site until this beautiful pink color came in.  I can't even tell you how much I love it!

I just discovered that the Trouve brand at Nordstrom makes shoes! I need another pair of shoes like I need a hole in the head, but these beauties are so pretty and a great price (even though they weren't included in the sale....).

No list would be complete without some great statement jewelry and these earrings are a great version of my DIY BaubleBar version seen here.

What are some of the items you still want for summer or are you thinking about fall already?

Have a great weekend!
