Shopping was a BIG success yesterday! It was so exciting to find so many new and exciting pieces…it should probably not come as a surprise that I REALLY like shopping for other people…especially when they are down to try things outside their comfort zone {cuz, you’re the BEST!}
We did a complete overhaul of Lila’s fall wardrobe. Purchases included: a pair of delightful oxfords, big chunky sweaters, layering shirts, belts, cardigans, and a new favorite jean…the straight leg BOLD CURVE.
We ♥’d the Levi’s Curve ID tagline {above}. The mission statement was also awesome, but I couldn’t find an image of it that was large enough to use {boo hoo}. I was a little surprised to see that the ad campaign is getting so much heat from critics.
We just hope that these jeans stick around for a long time. Going through the process of finding the right pair of jeans is definitely enough to make a grown woman cry…am I right?
Next steps for this wardrobe makeover? A remix! Integrating the new pieces with existing items, and finding new ways to wear old stuff. A polaroid camera would be ah-mazing. Stay tuned!
This post goes out to a good friend of mine who’s looking to spice up her wardrobe at work and on the weekends. The thing I like most about the set below is that it can be mixed and matched to get any number of looks. Plus, you can tell my obsession with floral belted dresses hasn’t changed much.
My girl’s parameters were this: “edgy”,”conservative”, and “jewel tones”. Only a touch contradictory, right? I think the look ends up being balanced…meeting in the middle at on-trend. What do you think? Mission accomplished?

The only thing I’ll say about dresses for work is watch out for the length. Minis are in, but not at the office. Above the knee is fine, mini is not! Now if only we could all look like this while we’re running errands about town:
I am dying over this look. Seriously. Those shoes!
