Love Life

 This outfit has the perfect combination of everything I adore: polka dots, some quilted action, layers, sparkly jewelry, zipper details, spikes, studs on heels...  you can tell I was feelin' good Friday morning.

This polka dot top is one of my favorite button ups I've ever owned. It's a great fit with just the right amount of stretch, no blouse gape, and is the perfect length to tuck in [at 5'9", this is hard to come by] or show under layers. Lauren Conrad knows what she's doing.

Speaking of Lauren, she "liked" one of my photos on Instagram Saturday night and I about died. At age 27, she has already accomplished so much and has been incredibly successful --all while looking fabulous! Quite the inspiration. So Lauren, if you ever stumble across this blog of mine, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to double tap that picture Saturday night, causing me to run and jump around my living room with the most ridiculous facial expression. It may not seem like much but it made my night. Thank you!

 I can't even begin to tell you how obsessed I am with these pants. I love the color, the quilted knees and back pockets, as well as the zipper details. 

The heels? I mean... look at them.

 As you may have noticed, I used two different bags for this look. I always have a clutch or smaller bag [inside my massive every day bag] with me incase of an impromptu cocktail outing or the like. Nobody wants to lug around a heavy purse in one hand with a drink in the other ;)
