You live in Lexington (or anywhere in Kentucky for that matter) you love two things---Horses and UK basketball.  You're kind of considered insane if you don't love both.  With that being said, I'm loving this look for several reasons---the Horse Blouse from Julie Brown is such a perfect homage to our city otherwise known as the Horse Capital.  As is one of my fave restaurants in town, Palmers Fresh Grill.  Aside from the delicious menu, the decor you all---it. is. spot. on.  The perfect marriage of modern yet cozy, with its insane photos of horses throughout, I just simply adore the vibe of this restaurant.  Nestled right next to Joseph Beth Bookstore, it is a perfect place to wind down after a day of shopping.  And then there's the 1/2 bottles of wine thing on Tuesdays---done and done.  

Alright gang, cheers to a lovely weekend---we've got a little slumber party action going on at my casa tonight!  Y'all make it a great one!

Poncho Love

poncho (Julie Brown c/o), leggings ( SPANX see similar HERE & HERE), bag (Clare Viver, love this NAVY version, Clutch Version), flats (Loeffler Randall), rings (Shine on Vine, Anna Beck), watch (Daniel Wellington c/o)

This is my first rodeo with a PONCHO and I have to say I'm hooked.  They're super cozy and have a knack for slenderizing ya down on the bottom half because there's so much volume up top.  I did a little browsing and found some other ponchos I'd like to add to the collection (Exhibit A, Exhibit B)--feel free to peruse below.  Alright gang, taking the bunnies to the beach--soaking up our last few days of this gorgeous weather!  Y'all make it a good one!
