field trip

Last week I took a little field trip to the Walter Baker showroom, and let me tell you, I fell in love with so many pieces! It was a colorful, pattern-full dream (and just wait until you see the Fall collection..).

This top caught my eye with its delicate details. I thought it would look oh-so-perfect with my roughed-up denim, and the breezy cutouts make it a perfect substitute for my standard summer uniform!

sorelle in[spired]: the feather sweater

Okay, you all know Sally and I have stolen many things from our Mommy's closet, but this sweater is of the greatest things that closet houses.

This is what we refer to as "the" sweater, the "feather sweater," which we've always admired in one particular photo of our Momma. It was handpicked and purchased by our Grandma, and has withstood (now three!) generations of stylish women approval (yes, we're including ourselves in that count..)

Now for the dramatic reveal..

Feast your eyes on feathery perfection..

And now for the photo! Our beautiful Mommy, ever more gorgeous than I'll ever look rocking the sweater:

vintage sweater (stolen from mommy's closet), michael michael kors suede shorts (stolen from sally - available here), missoni for target zigzag tights (available here), vintage fendi bag (gift from grandma - similar style here), ralph lauren suede coat (similar style here), gold bracelet (stolen from mommy's closet - similar style here), nine west booties (similar style here), rolex watch

..I seriously need a tan.

autumn twist

A maxi dress with booties - do or don't? Well I did it, and I liked it.

Sally wore the same outfit minus the booties and jacket back in April. I decided to warm it up a bit for fall.

That's the good thing about having a sister - not only can you steal her clothes*,
you can copy her outfits sans-guilt!


*we each have out own dress and scarf, though - we don't share evvverything

joie jacket (similar style here), h&m maxi dress (similar style here), missoni scarf (similar style here),
zoe&zac posie boots (available here), vintage fendi bag from grandma (similar style here)

I also wrapped my hair into my scarf because I'm cool like that
(no, really - it's cold and my hair provides an extra layer of warmth!).

missoni for target skirt, fendi bag from grandma (similar style here), minnetonka boots (available here),
wooden bracelet from grandma (similar style here), vintage hat (stolen from mommy's closet - similar style here)

Look what came in the mail yesterday - my new skirt!!! I opened my door and lovey was standing there with a Target package - I was so excited that I gasped and grabbed the package before even saying hello (sorry, lovey)!

I immediately ran upstairs and put it on! Thankfully we had our cousin's birthday dinner last night so my skirt could make its debut, otherwise I seriously would've worn this outfit while sitting on the couch watching Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.. Although the hat may have gotten in the way of the TV..

I've got so much gold, silver, and bronze working in this outfit that I feel like an olympic medal ceremony is taking place on my body. Like seriously, cue the national anthems! Funny thing is, I used to have my doubts about so much gold and silver together - now I think they make for a "winning" combination! (Get it?! Please say yes..)

And you knew it wouldn't be long before I broke out the platforms!
Best way to boost your Monday: 5" heels, baby.

open sesame

forever 21 jumpsuit (similar style here), zara blouse (similar style here), tory burch necklace (similar style here), wooden necklace (gift from grandma - similar style here), fendi spy bag (similar style here), i love jc sandals (stolen from mommy's closet - similar style here)

Remember this jumpsuit?? Well I felt it didn't get enough use this summer, and needed a way to wear it into Fall. Now I know it's still warm outside, but since I leave for class super early, I'm met with an autumn chill in the air and a sleeveless jumpsuit just wont cut it. My solution? A sheer blouse over, tied at the waist.

I felt like a tribal genie in this outfit, gold sandals and all.
Only my magic lamp would be the secret compartment of my Fendi spy bag.
You have three wishes, choose wisely! ;)

the want list

fendi cuff, by malene birger cotton gauze shirt (available here), j brand jeans (available here), gucci bag,
tory burch flats (available here), gucci aviators (available here), alexis bittar ring (available here), nars nail polish in dovima  (available here)

For a while, I've been on the hunt for a statement piece-you know, the one piece of jewelry to wear with a monochromatic outfit, and still look chic. I think I found THE perfect one! This Fendi cuff is gorgeous, as are all things Fendi, and it's gold, which is one of my all-time faves! 

These past few weeks, as I've been getting dressed I have been wishing I had a certain piece in my closet..that would be a gauze button-down shirt! This By Malene Birger cotton gauze shirt is perfect. 

As you may already know from one of my older posts, I adore color (even though I don't always wear a lot of it) and I am obsessing over colored jeans! These pink J Brands are to die for.

Oh Gucci. How I love anything and everything Gucci. This bag is amazing, and I could see myself wearing it again and again!

As I have previously mentioned in an old post, I do not own a pair of flats! Yes, I know, I am even shocked by my lack of this staple piece. There's something about flats that can make one look effortlessly polished-and in this gorgeous leather, I may not be able to resist. 

Sunglasses. Oh how I love sunglasses. Throughout the years, I've acquired a rather nice collection of sunnies..but I really don't have any brown-tortoise ones! These Gucci's are amazing, and I have already put in plenty of hints for my 17th birthday (that is still months away, but it's never to early to hint!)

Rings. I am obsessed with rings. It began when I was little, I would stare and drool in awe at my grandmother's. I have always had a love for rings, and this Alexis Bittar ring must become a part of my collection.

Red nail polish, as you all know, is a favorite of mine. This NARS nail polish in Dovima is a bright tomato red, and I need it. NARS nail polish goes on amazingly, and I am surprisingly good at doing my own nails when I use colors from NARS!
