Chambray and Chevron

Chambray Dress: MONROW

Cuff: Rustic Cuff

Shoes: Matt Berson (old), similar

Bags: St. John (on sale!) and Kate Spade

Sunnies: old (but this Gucci pair is similar and on my wish list!)

Happy Monday!

One of my favorite transitional pieces is my chambray t-shirt dress. This one only becomes softer and more comfortable with each wear. For my fellow tall girlies out there, this one is long enough to still be considered a dress (others that I’ve tried are a bit too short).

Have a great week!

Very Truly Yours,

Jennifer

Sunshine on my shoulders…

…makes me happy! Today’s post is all about Peach & Pepper Apparel. I absolutely adore this clothing line. Each piece is unique, yet functional. And as I’ve said before (see here), probably my favorite aspect of the Peach & Pepper is the attention to detail given to each and every item. This Cold Shoulder Top is no… Read More

Asymmetrical Dress and Gladiators in the Desert…

Happy Monday! I recently visited the desert and had the opportunity to meet the sweetest photographer named Bree. I’m still amazed by how she captured the beauty of the desert. We shot at sunset and it was absolutely stunning. I was in awe of the desert landscape – the cactus, the flowers, the mountains – and I kept thinking –… Read More

Cookies for Santa…

I became obsessed with iced sugar cookies while I was in law school at the University of Oklahoma. OKC was home to Ruth’s Sweet Justice, an amazing bakery owned by Ruth Rickey that unfortunately closed its doors in 2011. (She now does classes though! Check out her website for more info.) Ruth’s sugar cookies were literally melt-in-your-mouth delicious and the… Read More
