black lace & snake skin shoes

[F21 Shorts.  Borrowed Shirt.  Jessica Simpson "Dany" Platforms.  OrYany Bag.  Ray Ban Clubmaster Sunglasses.  Random Bangles.  Knuckle Ring (similar one here) All other rings vintage and diamond.]

These shorts exemplify my continued love affair with anything that's little and lacy.  I've had them for a while now, but have just recently started playing around with different ways to style them.  Since they're pretty short (and my heels are border-line stripper shoes), I think the baggier shirt balances them out.  Such an easy transitional look since this Florida weather can't quite seem to make up its mind on whether it's Winter or Spring.

beautiful buzz

[Persol Sunglasses.  F21 sweater. F21 leatherette shorts.  Jessica Simpson Dany Platforms.  Vintage Leather Bracelet. YSL Ring.  Aldo Feather Earrings.]

This is me having way too much fun posing with my boyfriend's Persol sunglasses after a day of drinking gin and tonics with friends.  It was a gorgeous Sunday afternoon, so it would have been absurd not to spend it in the sunshine enjoying our first taste of Spring.  I can't wait for more days like this in the near future.

shoe porn

I received my Jessica Simpson "Dany" Platforms for my birthday last September, and they have quickly become one of my favorite pairs of shoes.  They take the laid-back vibe of clogs and mix it with the sexiness of stripper heels platforms; I really couldn't ask for more in a shoe.  Sky-high platforms were all over the runway for this upcoming Spring, so I really couldn't help myself when they went on sale for $48.  I went with the gray snake skin, and couldn't be happier.  Serious shoe porn in my opinion.

Buy yours here.

feature on cheyenne meets chanel

Remember when I posted about lace shorts for Spring?  Well, the lovely Shea from Cheyenne Meets Chanel featured me in her post about the trend.  In the photo, I styled the Charlotte Russe shorts with a black, slouchy shirt (first seen here) to balance out the length of the shorts, Jessica Simpson Dany platforms, my OrYany bag, and Free People and Cheap Monday necklaces.  I definitely recommend getting your hands on these shorts before they're gone.. They're way too cute not too (and at that price, why not?).

leather shorts and leopard

[ray ban sunglasses.  scarf from nordstrom.  f21 sweater.  hue tights.  f21 leatherette shorts.  louis vuitton speedy.  jessica simpson ballet flats.  opi malaga wine nail polish.]

All my Christmas shopping is done for the most part, but there are still a few little things I want to pick up for pretty some special people.  I wore this out for some last minute shopping, and I couldn't have been more comfortable.  The leather shorts (a trend I first mentioned here) were so easy to pull off, and gave the outfit a unique touch.  I definitely recommend picking up a pair if you haven't already (perhaps for a little Christmas present to yourself? No judgement here..).

vintage gucci & enchanted forests

[vintage gucci bag.  gianni bini sweater.  f21 leggings.  urban outfitters tank top.  jessica simpson ballet flats.  chanel sunglasses.]

After a long day of running errands, D and I decided to go check out the "enchanted forest" about a mile from our house.  I was dressed for function instead of fashion, but my mother's vintage Gucci bag made the outfit a bit more special (and the ballet flats let me run around and play like a kid).  It's so nice to really enjoy the little things in life.. Whether it's enchanted forests or vintage Gucci.
