Psst

I found my red blouse! It's a little on the orange side, but I loved the cut, the fact that it's silk AND that it's on sale in stores for a mere $19.99. 

I can't wait to tuck this silky blouse into my flared trouser jeans stat!

Lauren Conrad, who happens to have a birthday today, is a constant source of style inspiration. While I avoid most reality TV, I can't wait for her new show to air. Here's an old picture of Lauren that I love...

Can I please have your Chanel bag Lauren?

Next on the hit list? A lightweight chambray button down to wear with everything under the sun. I wanted one last year and couldn't find the ideal, so I held off. Luckily, as with most classic staples, they seem to be here to stay. I see myself wearing one with my new red clutch, white skinny jeans and the dream Miu Miu platforms, or perhaps tucked into a floral pencil skirt with the sleeves cuffed.... the possibilities with an item like this are endless. I fell in love with this one today at J. Crew thanks to it's superior softness and lack of obvious/tacky buttons/stitching, which are a major pet peeve of mine.

Naturally it would be $70, right?

I know I mentioned my Etsy addiction last blog and I'm here to tell you that I wasn't exaggerating. Here are two recent finds, which cost less than $20 combined!

The strap is fortunately detachable on my new envelope clutch. I love how oversize this clutch from the '60s is, not to mention the fab gold trim on its corners. Wouldn't it look cute worn with a little chambray? 

This is a very zoomed in look at my new vintage knot posts. I wear so much gold jewelry that it seemed silly not to own any gold studs, and at the risk of sounding redundant, they're so classic!
