When I first bought this vest, I had no idea what to wear it with.  Or rather, everything I paired it with looked great in my head, but not in real life...  Does that ever happen to you?  I guess it isn't surprising that I paired it with this black and white outfit, lol!  I rediscovered this shirt recently and love how versatile it is.  Dots might be the new stripe for me!

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

You guys all know that I love a great blazer (and I need a new one like I need a hole in the head...).  But when my favorite associate at Fab'rik texted me about this jacket, I knew I had to have it!  Giving my number him has been so dangerous for my bank account...   This jacket is such a fun statement piece that will look great with jeans (above) or a cute long-sleeve dress.  I'm slightly annoyed that the versions I found and linked to above are less than I paid, but I'm always happy to support one of my favorite local boutiques.  Hopefully, one of you can take advantage of the great deal!

I'm normally a pants/jeans girl, but sometimes a dress just speaks to you.  I found this dress at the end of season sale at Neimans for an amazing price and am finally breaking out now that spring is here.  The color is so rich and the scuba-like materials is very flattering.  This is my first Rebecca Taylor dress, but probably not my last, especially if I can find another one for such a great price!

I hope you had a great weekend!  I was up in NYC for the weekend to celebrate the wedding of one of my best friends from high school and college.  I always love going to NYC for any reason, but it's extra special when I can have a mini reunion with friends.

We all have our favorite pieces that we reach for time and time again and this outfit is a combo of most my favorites.  I wore this for a dinner with friends where I was running very late (no surprise...) and nothing in my closet looked right.  This trusty combo saved this day.  Why mess with what works?  Do you have a go to outfit?

I hope your week is going well!  I wore this (or at least a version of this) on Sunday to run errands and style a client for an upcoming wedding.  I was hoping to get one more wear out of these boots before it became too warm, but I was melting in them!  I had to switch into flats (seen here on Instagram).  After all of my complaining about the cold weather, I'm definitely going to embrace the heat wave.  Bring it on!

I hope you had a great weekend!  This weekend was absolutely gorgeous and totally re-emphasized the importance of good friends.  You know how sometimes you get to the end of the week and all you can think of is laying on the couch, but you have plans to go out.  Last week was one of those weeks and Friday was one of those days, but I forced myself to go out to dinner with friends that were in town.  I probably would have canceled if they lived in Atlanta....  However, I am so happy I went.  We laughed so much and gossiped a good bit that it made me forget everything that made last week so long and re-energized me for this week (at least until I lost an hour Saturday night...).  I've been staying quite a bit over the last few weekend (House of Cards, etc.), but sometimes you just need a great glass of wine and hilarious conversation with good friends to get make you forget some of life's little frustrations.

I hope your week is going well!  As soon as I saw this Ann Taylor trench cape I knew I had to have it (or at least wait for a sale to pick it up).  It is the perfect transitional piece and satisfies my craving for a camel coat which I can't justify this late in the season.  Of course I had to add my favorite Clare V. leopard clutch and stripe turtleneck.  Something old, something new.
