Thomas,


This past weekend marked the end of Thomas's baseball career and I couldn't feel more
proud of him. He has played baseball his whole life and even into grad school this
past year. He is the most talented, passionate and driven person I know.
This past year was the hardest one yet for him, playing baseball while maintaining a
 4.0 in the MBA program at UOP. 
Thomas: I love you so much and can't express how much I look up to you
and admire your dedication in everything you you do. You are truly unique and
I'm so happy to not only have you as my best friend, but to be your *almost* wife.
You are the best. I love you so much.

Summer Wish List- Under $50!

Target Bikini- (Top $14) (Bottom $16)

My current wish list for summer is full of accessories for the beach, for work, 
for our traveling adventures and everything in between. I really love the
idea of throwing my hair up into a sloppy pony or bun and adding a cute 
scarf headband like the one from TopShop above or a big floppy hat. 
I also like to add funky jewelry or accessories like the Jonathan Adler scooter pouch,
turtle studs and lip necklace. I also chose these really cute Target sandals and Soludos 
espadrilles for our upcoming trip to Italy.

Bows & Pretty Things

T Shirt c/o StyleMint, Skirt Anthropologie, Wedges c/o ShoeMint, Purse Coach, Watch Michael Kors, Bracelet c/o Stella & Dot, Lipstick NARS Heat Wave

I pretty much love anything feminine, sweet and girly.
This outfit wraps that all up into one. This skirt is really feminine, my red
lips are pretty sweet and my hair-do is quite girly.
P.S. I found the tutorial for this hair-do here! (although it says it's for bangs,
I just took my front hairs and did it)

Graduation Style with Kate Spade New York




I was beyond thrilled when given the opportunity to wear Kate Spade 
New York for my college graduation. I wore the Floral Siren 300 dress and I couldn't 
think of a more perfect designer or dress to wear on such a special occasion.
Check out all of the pictures and my interview with Kate Spade New York 
over on their blog here!
Here are some more photos from my graduation:


and...CONGRATS to Liz from Sequins & Stripes on winning the
Kate Spade New York Poolside Giveaway!

Details


Dress Anthropologie (on sale!), Heels Givenchy, Purse Stella McCartney, Bracelets Stella & Dot

I fell in love with the details in this dress and it was on sale...so it came home
with me! It's so comfy and lightweight, the perfect dress to just throw on and go.
It has so much detail in it that no jewelry was really necessary.

A Rainbow of Suits


With summer upon us, I have been on the hunt for a new swimsuit.
I've always worn bikinis, but recently have been drawn to high-wasted retro
swimsuits and one-pieces. There is something so feminine and classic about
them, not to mention figure flattering.
What are your favorite swim looks?

Basics

Blazer Helmut Lang (similar styles here and here), T shirt Gap, Jeans c/o Karen Kane, Purse Coach, Heels Givenchy, Bracelets c/o Stella & Dot (here and here), Sunnies Ray Ban

After seeing this blazer on Alicia, I was determined to find it. Luckily, it was still on the 
Helmut Lang website and with some of my graduation money, I was able to get it!
It was definitely a big splurge, but it is a staple piece that I will have in my closet forever.
It will definitely come in handy when Thomas and I move to San Francisco in a 
couple weeks, since it's pretty chilly year round.

Weekend Stripes

Sweater Michael Stars, Skirt J. Crew, Heels Banana Republic, Sunnies Ray Ban, Bracelets c/o Stella & Dot (here, here and here)

This past weekend I realized that I pretty much wear stripes every weekend.
There is just something about a simple striped t shirt that remains chic and casual.
Thomas and I just got done planning our honeymoon to Italy and I can't help
but put outfits together in my head of what I'll be wearing. Lots of stripes included.
P.S. We will be going to Milan, Florence, Rome and the Amalfi Coast and would
greatly appreciate any recommendations!

Canary Yellow


 Dress c/o BCBGeneration, Bag Coach, Heels Banana Republic, Bracelets c/o Stella & Dot (here and here)

This canary yellow is my absolute favorite color right now. 
(Love this one, this one and this one as well!)
Mix in a fun hem line, chiffon fabric and you've got the perfect dress for summer. 
I slipped into this little number for a glass wine with Thomas on a warm Spring 
(felt like Summer) night.
Could it get any better than this?
Have a wonderful weekend.
