Sporting my very first DVF piece, courtesy of the StyleList Network (and fellow DVF launch partner), which I fantasize about wearing later this summer, unbuttoned and worn over my blue and white striped bikini while lounging at the beach. Aaaand, we’re back to reality.

I played around with this top for a while until I came up with an outfit I felt was right. Originally opting for a preppy look—white jeans and blue blazer—at the last minute, I decided to change it up and go with a more Victorian feel. I like the buttoned up, covered up look that still remains stylish yet structured with a romantic twist.

P.S. I am officially enamoured with the blog Atlantic-Pacific. I will admit that I couldn’t help myself, and pulled multiple (upon multiple photos) from her site onto my desktop to pop into my outfit inspiration folder. I loved how she styled this very skirt I’m wearing in the photo above. Check it out here!

I’ve seen this photo floating around the web for a couple months now, but when it resurfaced on Joanna’s blog this morning, I became intrigued with it and wanted to learn how to recreate this pretty, double knotted hairdo. A few clicks deep, I came across a link that a reader had left on Hanneli’s blog that directed me over to AOL’s Stylelist. In a nutshell, you literally split your into two sections and double-knot it like a shoelace. I tried it quickly and it worked! I just need to spritz my hair with some saltwater, or use Bumble and Bumble’s Surf Spray to add texture and hold.

I can see this becoming a pretty regular look, maybe a chic alternative to the ponytail that I wear almost every day. :)
