Vintage Baseball






jeans (Citizens of Humanity), tee (Vintage, Street Scene, Lexington), shoes (Zara), bag (Michael Kors), watch (Cartier), cuff (unknown), ring (Anna Beck), shades (Gucci)
I will elaborate in further detail in the near future about my fabulous vintage excursion with Suzy Kellems Dominik (where I scored this old school t-shirt).  In the meantime, snag a Baseball Tee, knot her up, dress her down with Chucks or up with heels, and enjoy your kickoff weekend to the summer!  
A big congrats to Kate Beebe on winning the Pomegranate Tote & Samantha White on winning The Shelf Giveaways!  Hope you gals enjoy & many thanks to all who participated.  Make it a very good holiday weekend, gang!

Feminine Camo







blouse (J.Crew 20% off), pants (GAP no longer avail, LOVE THESE & THESE), shoes (DVF), belt (Banana), tote (Kooba--obsessed with THIS), bracelets (Stella & DotJ.Crew), watch (Cartier), ring (Anna Beck)
Can I just tell you how many times I've worn my camo jeans (see similar HERE)?  And the best part, I've paired them with different tops each time.  You all know I've done the Gingham look, I've paired it with a pale pink striped blouse & flats, a navy & white striped tee and chucks, a chunky cable knit sweater & ankle booties--pairings for days!  I have to say; however, this girly take on camo may be my favorite yet.  I'm loving the juxtaposition of girly vs tomboy.  If you've sported the camo, would love to know how you're styling them.  Y'all make it a good one!

PS--The Shelf  (new items added) & the Pomegranate Tote Giveaways end this evening---Thanks to all who have entered thus far!

Pinstripes & Polkas





blouse & skirt (J.Crew old, LOVE this dotted skirt), belt (J.Crew), shoes (Boutique 9), bag (Furla), bracelets (J.Crew), ring (Anna Beck), watch (Michael Kors), shades (Gucci), earrings & pearls (Target)
Something light & crisp for a workday or even a little luncheon.  The subtlety of both the prints & color palette make for a lovely pairing.  Sidenote, I don't wear earrings all that often; however, I stumbled upon THESE WHITE STUDS and snaked them quickly---they are way inexpensive &  add a nice touch to a spring ensemble (as do the PINK & TURQUOISE pairs).  
Alright, gang, I have to scoot--have a fieldtrip at an orchard this morn with my sweet Campbell then have to switch outta mom mode into work mode with a business lunch in Louisville!  Busy day indeed--you all make it a good one & enjoy the weekend!  Friendly reminder, The Shelf giveaway ends early next week so make sure to get your entry on!

It's Personal








shirt (J.Crew), monogram (Moda Alterations, Lexington), shorts (HM), jeans (DL1961), belt (J.Crew), ring (Lagos), watch (Michael Kors), chucks (Converse), wedges (Rafe), necklace (Maya Brenner), shades (Ray Ban), bag (Kooba), ring (Anna Beck)
I knew the moment I saw This J.Crew Striped Popover, I would have to have it--but then again, I knew everyone else would, too!  Classic & fresh, it's a staple that will stay in your closet for ages.  With that being said, I wanted to spruce it up a bit & make it stand out.  Solution--the monogram!  What better way to add a unique touch than slapping on a "Laverne & Shirley-esque" Initial on it?  I have to say, I've worn the hell outta this sucker and plan to do so through the duration of the spring/summer.  Alright, gang, make it a good one & make sure to check out The Shelf Giveaway from yesterday--I added a few additional items & will continue to do so!
