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!

I hope you had a great Easter weekend!  My family always gets together for brunch/dinner and we usually spend the day reconnecting.  I'm very close to my parents and appreciate any time we can spend together.  We all get so busy that it is great to spend quality time together.   I hope you were able to enjoy the weekend as well.

I bought this dress during the last big Piperlime sale and while I really like it, I was a little surprised at how short the under skirt is!  I'm only 5'2 and this dress would be indecent on someone much taller than me.   It was final sale, but thankfully it was such a great deal.  I'm sure I can find a few places to wear it over the spring/summer.

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Can you believe that it is April already?!  This year is flying by!

Do you have any pieces in your closet that were so cute in the store, but you just can't figure out how to wear them?  This skirt is one of those pieces for me.  I fell in love with it last fall, but it sits in my closet taunting me as I can't figure out what to pair it with.  My chambray shirt came to the rescue this time, but I know there are so many other cute ways to style this shirt.  I just can't figure them out!

So I'm turning it over to you guys.  How would you style this skirt?

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!

Weekly Weaknesses - Spring Wedding Dresses

1/2/3/4/5/6/7

I hope your week is going well!  Am I the only one who feels like the year is flying by?  It is hard to believe that spring and summer wedding seasons will be here before we know it.  I love weddings and any excuse to dress up so I thought I would share some of the best dresses I've found for spring weddings.  I don't have any more weddings until this summer so I'm hoping to live vicariously through you guys and my friends.  Do you have any weddings coming up?  What are you planning to wear?

Also, don't forget that today is also the last day to take 30% off selected items at Piperlime with code DRESSCODE.

I hope you had a great weekend!  Mine was fairly low key after being in NYC last week.  I never sleep as well away from home as I do in my own bed so I was overdue for a catch up.  

As we transition into spring, I'm beginning to think about the pieces that will be staples in my closet moving forward and what I want need.  When I had this white blazer made last year (for under $100 - I have to figure out how to get back to Vietnam!), I didn't realize what a staple in my closet it would become.  I find myself reaching for it so often that I hate parting with it to even send it to the dry cleaner.  (Of course I send it, lol!)  If you don't have one, I highly recommend picking one up for spring or a sleeveless vest (like this one), which is a great alternative.

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!

Don't forget about the Tibi sample sale, 30% off at Piperlime with code SPRINGCHIC, or the Bloomingdale's 25% off Friends and Family sale.

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?

Thanks for reading and have a great day!
