Dearest Isabel....

So I know that most of you, if not all, have seen the Isabel Marant sneakers that cost an arm and a leg and maybe even a lock of hair.  They are mostly sold out everywhere and honestly I have been on the fence whether or not I like them.  I don't wear shoes that are this casual too often, but its one of those things that if you see them so often they start to wear on you.  Since, I can't afford the real thing I took to the web to see if I could find a similar alternative.  I think the below do the job and what fun colors!

Seriously, I am Obsessed with this Stole....

When I purchased this stole from H&M several weeks ago I didn't realize how much I would wear it.  I have dressed it up, dressed it down, and basically have tried to wear it any chance it get.  I was in Houston this past weekend and the weather was beyond perfect.  The high was 70 everyday and there was not a cloud in the sky, so I snapped these quick picks with my favorite faux fur.

What I Love About Your Look....

I love this outfit.  But what I love most about this look is that denim jacket because I too own the very same one.  HA!!  No, what I actually love about this look is the great layering and that fantastic pleated dress hidden under all the layers.  I hope you all had a great week and have an even better weekend.

Citron Dining...

I have been obsessed with the color citron lately!  So when I saw this dining space I knew I had to post it.  I can't decide if its uniquely chic, or an out of date area waiting to happen?  What do you think?  Too much of a good thing?

Flamingo....

I loved the Charlotte Taylor for Anthropologie collection so much that I think I bought every piece!  It was especially enticing to get it all when there was an additional 50% off the marked sale price back in December.  Today I opted for the flamingo skirt, which is one of my favorite pieces.  I took a little risk by wearing it with this mustard green sweater but I think it turned out great!

What I Love About Your Look....

I have absolutely been into great pop of color combos.  So I think you can guess what I love about this look.  Yes, that bright clutch paired with those bold stripes.  AND the sweater is from Old Navy which will probably be a steal.  There are endless ways to pair it to create different outfits.  I hope you all had a great week and are enjoying and even better weekend.

IKAT......

I saw this jacket several weeks ago at Aritzia, tried it on, and loved it but the price didn't agree with my wallet.  Fast forward to this past weekend and I was there again, doing a quick browse, and guess what?  IT WAS ON SALEEEEE.....so you know I bought it right?  Here it is and I love it!

Citron....

D.I.Y - Fun Name Garland...

So I know that I post many a D.I.Y and "say" that I am going to try them and you never see a follow up post. Well, do I have a surprise for you!  Do you remember the garland D.I.Y that I posted here?  Well, I finally finished the one that I was making for my cousin's baby girl.  I think it turned out great with the exception that it is like twice the size that I wanted it to be.  Ah well, not every project will be perfect.  It will just have a larger presence in the baby's room, but not such a bad thing because its SUPER CUTE.  What do you think?

What I Love About Your Look....

Its back, the first what I love about your look post for the new year.  And I would like to start with this fabulous look, the dusty citron with the royal eggplant color combo is amazing.  Not to mention the great mixture of texture in this outfit.  It just all works so well together. I hope you all had a great week and enjoy and even better weekend!

P.O.C.

Have you all been watching, Its a Brad Brad World on Bravo?  I love him, and was so sad when he left Rachel Zoe but now its all Brad all the time.  In his latest episode he talked about his new love for pops of color and if you have been following my blog for awhile you know that I too love a good pop of color.  Apparently J Crew is also on the bandwagon and these loafers would be the perfect pop for any outfit!

A Little Winter White.......

I love how unique and fun this vest is.  This was another Nordstrom Rack find that I picked up several weeks ago and am now just getting the chance to wear.  Although it was quite cold outside this morning, I didn't really like the way it looked with long sleeves so I wore short sleeves with it instead.  Anything in the name of fashion right? Topped off with my wooden bracelet and flare jeans and I was out the door.  Happy Hump Day everyone!

I Don't Know Your Name, But You Sure Said Hello.....

I saw these booties at Nordstrom Rack this past weekend and LOVED them.  They are reminiscent of the Derek Lam wedges that I loved last season and missed out on.  They are by a brand called Messeca, that I have never heard of but I tried them on to do a quick comfort check and now they have been added to the collection.  I have definitely been on a shoe kick.  Have you bought any great shoes lately?

My Visit to the DMA....

This past weekend I finally got the chance to go see the Jean Paul Gaultier exhibit at the DMA.  I have heard so much about it and I knew that February would be here before I knew it and the my chance to see it would be gone.  I wasn't allowed to take pictures while in the exhibit but let me tell you it was worth every penny of that $20 they charged to get in.  The weather was just brisk enough that I was finally able to wear this rust stole I picked up from H&M a few weeks ago.  Yay!

**A huge thanks to everyone that left a comment on my Friday post.  I had no idea that some of you have been following my blog for so long.  Means the world to me!  :)

Dress My Nest: Wall Hangings

I haven't updated you all on the progress of decorating my house so I thought I would show you a great item I found via the Glitter Guide instagram.  A few weeks ago I feel in love with the paper mache animal wall hangings that were in the West Elm catalog.  There was something about the quirkiness of them that I loved and knew they would add an element of surprise to my living room.  I thought these were exactly what I had been looking for, but this past weekend I found the last image and feel head over heels in love!  Those gold horns made this deer head beyond amazing.  So now I have my eyes set on something else.  I can't wait to order this and hang it in my living room.

New Year, New Hair.....

At least for this past weekend.  It was quite brisk out, but I didn't want to wear a coat so I opted for layers instead.  I love this chunky sweater vest and the burnt rust color went perfectly with my green pants and dark denim jacket.  I hope you all had fun ringing in the New Year.
