I’m teaming up with Lingering Daydreams again to bring you another fun and easy-to-wear outfit! This month, the event we were dressing for was a backyard movie night. How awesome is that? For the event, Lila wanted a casual and versatile fall look. Since then, we’ve already come up with tons of ways to wear both the chambray shirt and the vest. {Both are part of my closet essentials list}. Major win.
To see the full look, and learn more about this awesome backyard movie night, be sure to check out Lila’s blog. And, if you’re interested in a consultation or styling, be sure to check out my styling services!
So the beanie might have been overkill, but summer in SF is no joke. Srsly.
I’ve partnered with Lila of Lingering Daydreams to style her event series this year. And the event at hand this month was an oyster and champagne party {holy yum}.
But think about it. An oyster and champagne party. Outside. In July. In SF. In theory, it might as well have been December, but I digress. {It was actually lovely, and we had a supremely large pile of quilts to keep us warm.}
Lila’s original inspiration was an oversized cardigan and slouchy beanie. But for hosting an event {albeit a casual backyard party}, we needed to elevate the look a little bit. The belt cinches in the waist, and the leggings keep the silhouette slim. A bold lipstick is the perfect contrast and finishing touch to the all-neutral look.
You know I’m into outfits with leggings these days and I totally dig this outfit. I’ll be posting a leggings how-to soon, so check back for more!

Lila and Ari have been friends since high school! And they are both super crafty ladies. This weekend, they are teaming up to host a build-your-own-terrarium event. I’m super stoked on creating my own terrarium {been wanting to do it for years}, but I was even more stoked when they asked for help in deciding what to wear. There’s nothing to NOT like about weekend wear.
The vibe is decidedly low key and casual, and the outfits definitely reflect that: deconstructed denim, oversized plaid  and minimal jewelry — especially when you’re working with your hands!
On Lila:
Forever 21 gingham/check button down, Buy Me Brunch Becky Tee, Levi’s bold curve skinnies and classic converse. One of the easiest ways to go oversized is by making sure you balance out your look. If you’re doing volume on top, keep the bottom super slim.
The messy rolled cuff on the jeans is my fave!
On Ari:
I love that when I suggested an oversized sweater with outrageous gold foil dinosaurs and a leather ball cap, Ari didn’t even bat an eyelash. “I’m game,” she said. So that’s what we went with and I love how fun the overall look is. Even if shorts are a little chilly for SF.

This year, I’m really excited to be teaming up with Lingering Daydreams to style looks for specific events for the blog’s {CELEBRATE} series.
