Target Style jumpsuit;  Call It Spring heels (similar);  Hat;  GiGi New York bag (c/o);  Ray-Ban sunglasses;  body chain;  Sam Edelman cuff

Last week I ran into Target for one thing.  You already know how this story ends, but I’ll tell it to you anyway.  So I run in for cough syrup only, and I’m telling you, totally on its own my cart just started navigating me towards the clothing.  I have no idea how these things happen, it’s just science, people.  Yada, yada, a few thousand things in my cart later, I’m walking out with a big smile because I’d just found the perfect summer jumpsuit.  It’s super lightweight and breezy (I bought a size up so that it would be a little roomy in the heat), and I love the little keyhole detailing in front.  The styling possibilities are seriously endless with this one – heels, flat sandals, espadrilles, wedges…I tried ’em all, and they all work.  Annnnnd, it’s under thirty bucks.  I’d say that’s a super successful trip to Target, had I remembered the cough syrup.

Wednesday already?  Time flies when you have the flu.  Seriously.  Made it home from our wedding with a little parting gift called influenza.  But that’s fine.  It’s actually a nice little detox after New Orleans, so bring it on, flu.  Anywho, back ‘atcha today with one last pair of spring kicks from Payless, and as promised, they’re so good.  A great pair of neutral wedges will always get their fair share of wear in the spring, and these are super comfy to boot.  Paired with favorite white boyfriends, a striped tee, and an army jacket (from a few seasons ago, can’t get enough), you’ve got a pulled-together look that requires zero brain skills.  Because that’s just about as much as I can muster this week.  Hope everyone else is having a great (flu-free) week!

BCBGMaxAzria caftan dress;  Isola sandals (c/o);  GiGi New York clutch;  sunglasses;  similar watch;  Bracelets: Kendra Scott, Julie Vos

If there’s anything that you might consider an obsession of mine, it’s anything that looks, feels, or remotely resembles a caftan, and this one had me at hello.  I specifically bought it for our post-wedding brunch this past Saturday, and it was just what I wanted to throw on after being in a wedding dress the day before.  It’s loose and airy without being a full-on moo moo.  (Do people outside of the South say moo moo?  Not sure.)  Luckily I snapped a few pics in it before we left for New Orleans because I pretty much took no pictures during our entire wedding week.  I was focused on having fun with family and friends, and luckily our photographer was there to catch the best moments.  (Will of course be sharing those here later!)  So today I’m back to California and getting used to being back in the real world.  Can we just rewind the last week?

Y’all!  I’ve been a serious fan of GiGi New York handbags and accessories for, like, ever (seriously, years), so today I’m really excited to team up with the fab folks at GiGi to launch one of their brand new bags for spring: The Amelie.  Available in five awesome shades for spring, the Amelie is the newest versatile handbag from the line that can be carried with a longer strap as a crossbody or with the top handle as a satchel.  It’s that perfect in-between size so that you can easily go hands-free, but it still fits ALL my stuff perfectly.  The interior includes three separate compartments, including one zippered section, and everything stays tucked inside with a turn-lock closure.  Signature to GiGi, the pebble leather is so soft and yummy, and the bag can be easily personalized with your initials (which also makes for a great gift).  With a roadtrip up the California coast on my mind for this summer, I can’t wait to pack it up with the essentials, my camera, and a few snacks (obviously) and hit the road.

Remember my obsession with these wedges last summer?  I wore them, like, a thousand times with everything from dresses to shorts and pants because they were just SO comfortable.  Welp, just in time for spring, Sofft has a new pair that’s got me equally obsessed.  Their new Perla wedge has elastic straps that are more comfortable than a giant beanbag, and can you really say that about any of the wedges in your closet?  No you cannot.  They are available in gold or black, and although I’d like to get my hands on both, you know gold is my main squeeze.  I’m sure I’ll be wearing these 4,629 times in the upcoming months, starting with this weekend’s Palm Springs bachelorette weekend.  If a flat sandal is also on your spring shopping list, check out these classics that you can find here.  They’re also SUPER comfortable and go with, like, everything.  Wanna see more spring sandals?  Check out Sofft for the best picks that you can actually wear (and walk in) all day, and use code “SOFFT20” for 20% off your purchase.  Happy almost weekend, friends!

    Sun & Shadow romper;  GiGi New York bag;  Matisse sandals;  sunglasses;  Julie Vos bangles and necklace

I think a couple of summers ago I romper’d myself out and had to take a little break.  It can be hard to find one that fits a long torso, and let’s be honest, shimmying out of one to go to the bathroom kinda sucks.  It certainly didn’t affect my love of jumpsuits (don’t be silly), but rompers just weren’t doing it for me for a while.  But then I found this one, and things are back on.  It’s long-sleeved and perfect for this little spring transition that we’re having, but it’s also super lightweight for the warmer months ahead.  The flowy sleeves combined with the lace-up detailing and pockets and I was sold.  (I mean, pockets.  Duh.)  Wear it with flat sandals, wedges, or something in between like these flatforms for day to night use.  And the best part?  It’s under 50 bucks.  Score.  And that whole bathroom thing?  Just, ya know, drink less water.  Or something like that.

Is there anything better in the springtime than pretty pleats catching a little breeze?  Well, I can think of one thing, and that’s the very rare spring thunderstorm happening right now in Southern California.  This whole El Nino thing seems to finally be happening today, and I’m not complaining.  I know someone who will be working in her robe all day long.  But back to this dress.  It comes in a few different prints and colors, fits true to size, and will run you under $80.  It’s the perfect dress for those upcoming weddings, showers, and other girly obligations on the agenda.  All you need to add is a simple pair of sandals and a springtime breeze.  Hope everyone has a great start to their week!
