Go Nats




Tank: H&M  Top: Mossimo  Necklace: Stella and Dot  Jeans: 7 for all Mankind  Shoes: Nine West Similar Style  Watch: Michael Kors

Tonight I am going to my first baseball game of the season. Go Nats! The Washington Nationals are playing the Atlanta Braves. I am really excited because I actually grew up loving the Braves (thanks dad!). I loved going to games as a kid and seeing Chipper Jones play whenever they would come to the West Coast. Tonight should be great! I have a Nationals t-shirt but thought it was best to just wear a red top today and change before the game.

Happy Friday!

Summer is here





Top: Zenana Outfitters  Sweater: Ann Taylor  Skirt: The Limited (light gray available online)  Shoes: Jessica Simpson  Bag: Michael Kors Similar Style  Watch: Michael Kors

Well, it officially feels like Summer here in DC. It is hot and humid and full of sunshine. I think it's just about time to pack up my pants and live in skirts and dresses for the next few months. While getting ready this morning, I came across a skirt I haven't worn in awhile and decided it was time to pull it out of my closet. I don't dress up nearly as much as I used to so I thought it would be fun to wear. Plus, it is gray and I can't get enough of gray and yellow together.

Memorial Day in Michigan

I am finally back at a computer and able to post some photos from this past weekend. We went up to a small town in Northern Michigan where we had no computers and no phone service. It was so nice to get away for a few days. We spent time boating on the lake, sitting around the campfire and relaxing in the hammock. It was a perfect holiday weekend and I cannot wait to go back. Here are just some of the pictures from our trip:


The cabin where we stayed.


The lake.


The trees-- I can't get over how big and beautiful all of the trees were.


The bald eagle nest above the house. It is a little hard to see in this picture.


The lake again.

Travel Day



Top: Banana Republic  Shorts: Zara  Belt: Old Navy  Shoes: Jessica Simpson  Watch: Michael Kors  Sunglasses: Coach

Saturday was a travel day I think it is so important to be comfortable while traveling, especially when you are flying AND driving. With temperatures rising over the weekend, I knew I had to wear shorts. I paired them with this chambray shirt from Banana Republic because I love the look of blue with blue. The contrasting belt matched the shoes and became one of my favorite looks. Blue and gold are classic and it was the perfect outfit to wear when flying into Michigan.

What do you prefer to wear when traveling?

Memorial Maxi





Dress: Banana Republic  Hat: Banana Republic  Shoes: Kensie Girl  Watch: Michael Kors  Bracelet: Stella and Dot  Necklace: Stella and Dot

Nothing is better for a Memorial Day weekend at the lake than a Maxi dress. They are so comfortable and versatile. I love pairing mine with some wedges and spending the evening by the water. 

Hope you are having a great holiday weekend!

Holiday Weekend





Dress: Victoria's Secret  Sweater: J.Crew  Shoes: Zappos  Necklace: Stella and Dot  Bangles: Stella and Dot

Are you getting excited for the long holiday weekend? I am. A few days full of fun, friends, the beach and the boyfriend. I can't wait! I woke up in such a good mood today in anticipation of the weekend. I grabbed my favorite sweater, threw it on over a dress, and ran out the door. The color is, by far, my favorite and it just added to my good mood.

I hope you have a great long weekend!
Do you have any fun plans?

All-American Jean Jacket







Top: Hinge  Skirt: Banana Republic Similar Style  Jacket: Levi's  Shoes: Nine West  Necklace: Stella and Dot  Sunglasses: local gas station

With Memorial Day around the corner, I wanted to wear something "All-American" today. I decided to pull out my jean jacket, one of the best staple items in my closet. I haven't worn this jacket since last summer and I forgot how much I love it. It goes so well with feminine fabric like this eyelet skirt and it also looks great with floral print. It can be a great addition to almost any outfit. I am so glad I re-discovered it.
