Blueprint

It’s no secret that I love mixing prints together, but sometimes the chicest look is also the simplest.  So, if you’re intimidated by pattern play, pair one bold item with monochrome pieces – it lets the print become the focal point…and it makes getting ready in the morning a much less complicated process!


I’ve been keeping my accessories pretty pared-down this summer, which makes statement jewelry, like this coral cuff, ideal for accenting my look without feeling weighed down.  DaisyGem is generously offering 5% off all orders for PPF readers + in addition to this discount, they will be donating 5% of the net proceeds of all orders placed to Pencils of Promise (an organization that helps provide education to children in impoverished areas of the country).  Just use code PENPRO5 at checkout (thru 7/24) to receive your discount & help a worthy cause!

What I’m wearing:
Old Navy Shirt, c/o Dorothy Perkins Jacket, Mossimo jeans (similar here or here), c/o JustFab Anais Heels, Zara bag (similar), c/o DaisyGem Coral Cuff, Forever 21 Arrow Ring, Simply Vera Vera Wang aviators (similar), Nails: Essie Bikini So Teeny, Lips: Revlon Moon Drops Blase Apricot

    All signed up & fingers crossed! I love the Kali flat in rose gold because i do not yet have a metallic flat, the Karen slingback in white snake because I think they look chic, as well as the Lola in silver and black for those dressy occasions. Thanks for this opportunity to win!

    LOVE this jacket and keeping the rest monochromatic make it stand out all the more. Also, madly crushing on that bracelet! Such a simple yet bold statement piece.
    Hope the move and packing is going well. Wish I were there to help. Let me know when you're all settled- I'd love to come visit. It's been too long!
