Swingin'

I've been into swing dresses as of late.  They are oh so easy to wear and perfect for summer.  I got this one from one last week (currently on sale) and I'm tempted to get it's dark-colored counterpart.  While I love it, my only complaint is the fiber content.  Synthetic fibers are no fun in the hot Lahaina sun.  I'm also lovin' my new heels from and flats, too.  I did a quick switch out to transition the look from day to night (and the look just photographers so much better with heels! lol).  Hope you're enjoying the rest of your weekend!  Chat soon. :)

Pumps and cut-offs

For the past couple of months, I've been drawn to more sleek shoe silhouettes.  I've also added quite a few pairs of pumps to my shoedrobe.  I love the look of a pointy toe heel.  It elongates my vertically challenged frame.  I also think a great heel makes any look, even cut-offs, have a more polished feel.  Don't get me wrong, I'm still a Lita girl at heart. :)

Olive + Piper sent me this pretty lioness bangle.  I love the fiery red color and it's so perfectly me.  I'm a Leo, if you didn't know.  :)  Check out Olive + Piper for other amazing baubles.  And I also received this sweet delicately hand stamped necklace from  Amy of Junghwa by Amy Stewart.  She handcrafts these necklaces (and other pretties!) herself.

Enjoy soaking up the rest of the weekend!

Boy meets Girl

Summer has officially begun!  The Pirate and I went out for celebratory drinks and sushi to welcome the new season.  One of my favorite looks is the classic tee and jeans combo.  And of course, what better way to welcome summer than with something white!  Enter these white whip-stitched stilettos.  I'm a lucky girl with great friends who support my shoe habit.  Thanks, Hana!  She sent me these awesome Aldo Rise Weatherbee heels.  Sure, they're from a few seasons, but they are still amazing!  Also wearing this rad tee from Flamboyant Dynasty.  Thanks Nelson!

Here's to an epic summer!

Catitude

Hi guys!  How's your summer going?  I hope you're enjoying it thoroughly.  Although, it's been sweltering hot here in paradise, there are times that I feel like throwing on a pair of boyfriend jeans and comfy sweater.  It's such an easy pairing, you can't go wrong.  I like finishing the look with a great pair of heels, for a more polished look.  The awesome peeps over at Swaychic sent over this rad cat sweater.  Don't you adore it?  I surely do. If you didn't know, I'm a huge fan of the feline posse.  I love the crop-ish length of the sweater and it's pretty lightweight, so it's purr-fect for those cool summer nights.  Stop by the Swaychic website when you get a chance.  They have tons of super cute and affordable pieces.  I'm totally crushing on their whole skater dress selection.  I definitely need to add a few of them to my summer wardrobe. 

Again, thanks to everyone who entered my YuniKelley Designs giveaway.  Thanks Julie for partnering up with me.  So, without further ado, the winner is, Lisa!  Congrats, girl.  I'll be contacting you in a bit.  :)

WhiteOut

I'm sure you've seen this skort all over the blogosphere.  I remember getting it months ago (before the black, red, and blue versions came out) and while I love the idea of a skort, the thought of actually wearing a white one, freaked me out.  I'm that girl who spills everything on herself.  Everything.  I let the skort hibernate in the back of my closet for some time, but after seeing it for the millionth time, and on one of my favorite bloggy friends, I knew I had to muster up the courage and finally wear this beaut out.  I can't take credit for this pairing, though.  I owe it all to Tiff (check her version out here).  And of course what better way complete the look with more white!!  White bag, check.  White shoes, check.

Oh, and I didn't forget... I'll be announcing the winner to my YuniKelley Designs giveaway soon.  Thanks to everyone who entered! :)

Mirrors

Hey guys!  Have you had a chance to enter my giveaway yet?  If you haven't, check out the post below.

I've been drawn to pieces that have the mirrored-effect, so when I saw this shift dress pop up on Bamboo Sky's instagram, I knew I had to have it.  Due to it's obvious popularity, the dress sold out much quicker than I expected.  Boo hoo.  But with Tiff lookin' out for me (thanks girl!), she let me know right away when they restocked!  And well, the rest is history!

Happy Monday, loves.  Here's hoping the week goes by quickly.
