fashion forward friday

One of my favorite pairs of shoes growing up was a super cute pair of black bow flats from Sam & Libby {which I am wearing in the picture below}. I was absolutely in LOVE with them and I wore them all the time. Sometimes I wish I had held on to that pair because it reminds me so much of my childhood. I loved the simplicity of it and the fact that they were adorned with adorable bows, which by the way, I am STILL a fan of.

 

You can imagine my excitement when I found out that one of my favorite shoe brands as a child has a collaboration with Target, another favorite of mine! Yes, Sam & Libby and Target have an affordable shoe line launching on May 5th. It's amazing when Target has a collaboration with just about anybody, but this will be simply awesome. And yesss...there will be bows! :)

My go-to shoes for winter are obviously boots, but I am so over this fashion staple. I'm ready for Spring and longing for some cute flats, strappy sandals, dresses, and a pop of color in my daily wardrobe. I live in the Bay Area so Spring is always lagging behind. Come out, sunshine and warm weather!

{Happy} Monday! I can't believe how fast the weekend goes by sometimes. It feels like yesterday was just Friday. My weekend was fun-filled and eventful, which I love. The countdown to Friday begins again...

Cross shirt / Madewell jean jacket / Vero Moda hot shorts, $23 / Bamboo braided sandals / Marc by Marc Jacobs crossbody handbag / Carolina Bucci gold earrings, $1,685

I am officially obsessed with Polyvore! I'm very excited because tomorow night I'm going to an outdoor show called The Comedy Jam. As always, I'm stressing about what to wear so I took to Polyvore to get some ideas. I am definitely loving this outfit! It's casual and comfortable, which is what I'm looking for since we have lawn seats. Since it will probably get a little chilly at night, I've added the jean jacket. Super cute!

fashion forward friday

I've been away for a while, but I'm back! Things have been so crazy with endless weekend events. Summer is always such a busy time of the year for me and I can't believe it's July already. There are so many fashion trends that I'm in love with this season, I feel like I can't even keep up. Some recent news that I'm super excited about is a Winter collaboration with Target and Neiman Marcus, including designers such as Tory Burch, Marc Jacobs, and Jason Wu just to name a few. Very exciting!


Over the past few weeks, I've had time to shop for some new shoes. Next to boots, flats are my all-time favorite! Ankle strap flats and boat shoes have been catching my eye like crazy so I finally snagged a pair of each for myself.


Love BCBG and Sperry! :)

I read an article on Us Magazine about Tory Burch's feud with her ex-husband over their business partnership for her company. Although I don't own anything from her fashion line, I do have this fascination for it. One thing that's been on my list of things I would love to have are her ballet flats. I remember seeing almost every girl I came across wearing them and after reading the reviews, I knew I had to have them. That's still a work in progress as I have never spent more than $100 on a pair of shoes! I'll have to splurge on myself one of these days...

my oscar favorites

I usually don't watch the Oscar's because I seriously can't sit through the whole thing. What I do love is watching the Red Carpet pre-show so I can sit there and admire what all the actresses are wearing for the night. Unfortunately, I missed it this year so I had to catch up on all the beautiful dresses online. These are some that I would definitely wear...if only I had a lavish red carpet event to attend!

I've always been a huge fan of Angelina Jolie and her effortless style choices, but I was a little disappointed this year...

obsessed much?

The best part of a busy day is finally being able to sit down, relax, and enjoy a good movie. After a few loads of laundry and a little bit of reorganizing/early Spring cleaning, I am sitting on my bed as we speak and watching The Bodyguard. 


I found myself having some sort of a love addiction with a few things this week. If you know me, I am obsessed with sweets! Working in the city of San Francisco, there can be many temptations around me when it comes to satisfying my sweet tooth. There is a Specialty's Cafe & Bakery right next to my work and I always heard they had the best cookies. I don't remember who I heard it from, but they were right. Currently on my food obsession list is their black & white cookie. Seriously, melt-in-your-mouth goodness!

Of course, I have a list of fashion obsessions! Right now I am really into adding more skirts and dresses into my wardrobe. I've always been such a jeans kind of girl while my current dresses have only been worn once or twice. And loafers! I never thought I would want to buy a pair, but these shoes have really grown on me. I found these via Pinterest and fell in love!

My favorite show right now is The Walking Dead. I just recently started watching the second season and finally caught up on the first season last weekend. No joke, one of the best shows ever! I anticipate Sunday nights because of this show. I even had a dream {nightmare} about zombies a few weeks ago. Hmm, if I have any more I might have to stop watching it...
