Looks

I love a good print, but find myself only buying dresses in fun prints and colors… my tops are another story – solids and an occasional striped tee in the mix… but pretty uninspiring honestly…

J.Crew Jacket, Zara Top (sold out – similar), Banana Republic Jeans, Dolce Vita Sandals (similar), GiGi Clutch

When Zara had their big sale last month, I had to pounce on this fun shirt (with a little flair in the back)… but please don’t judge me when I tell you that I also bought this top in the dress version (baby steps people!!!).

My new obsession – pants.  I’ve always been a dress girl, but as of late I’ve been gravitating towards the simplicity (and gasp… comfort!) of a simple pants ensemble.  These J.Crew pants have become a new staple… super easy to throw on, and can be dressed up or down, day or night… here was my “get ready in 5 minutes for dinner after work” look.
