Ruffled.
Me at my best friend’s wedding in Hawaii.
I was chatting with my friend S today and she was telling me about her best friend’s wedding she is attending in Mexico. Her question was whether or not this dress from Marc by Marc Jacobs was appropriate or “good enough” to wear to the ceremony. I told her I think it will work perfectly and is a lovely choice for the occasion. I love anything with a ruffle, and the color reminded me of the dress I wore to my best friend’s wedding last March. What do you think of the Marc Jacob’s dress? Are you a fan of ruffles or are you still on the fence? Do tell, I would love to know!

I love pencil skirts

I think pencil skirts are a very necessary and sexy staple for a woman to have. They create a lovely silhouette, are very feminine, and usually very flattering. And, seeing that I have a date tonight (eek!) and will coming straight from the office, I wanted to wear something that would easily transition from day to night-appropriate.
So, this is the outfit I opted for…a pretty ruffly shirt and a pencil skirt. I love how the earrings and belt add a little edge to the frilly ruffles, but the simplicity of the pencil skirt, clutch and peep-toes keep the over-all outfit looking feminine and polished. So, tell me, what would you wear on a date if you were coming straight from work?
Alright my dears…wish me luck!

Activity date-wear
In response to my three date outfits, posted on SMITTEN, my friend Jenn asked if I could come up with some possible outfits to wear on a more activity-oriented outing, such as bowling, hiking or a football game. So, I began poking around Forever 21, Abercrombie & Fitch, Old Navy, J. Crew and the Gap and came up with the outfits below. Tell me, would you wear any of these three on a date? I would love to know! SPxx
