Earrings: Baublebar x Anthropologie

Hey ladies, these are just a couple quick snaps that hubby took of me while we were heading out to dinner last Friday. We often joke that every night is date night because we don't have kids yet. Sometimes we'll hit up a familiar spot, and sometimes we will venture out of town to try something new (especially along the coast. Any excuse to be by the ocean). On this night, I paired leopard and stripes which is one of my favorite combinations. I also can't get over how beautiful and sparkly these Baublebar x Anthropologie earrings are! Easily my favorite piece of jewelry - at the moment.

Before I get into the awesomeness that was Memorial Day weekend, let me first preface this by admitting that photographing myself in a bathing suit scared the living daylights out of me. Yes, even with a pretty white cover-up that is only slightly sheer, I was still nervous about posting this. Even after hubby reassured me a hundred times that it was "cute" and "no big deal", I still worried. I'm type A, that's what I do. Hopefully everyone can overlook my awkward intro because I really did wear this exact look yesterday and I loved it! I spied this Old Navy bathing beauty on Instagram and literally dropped everything I was doing to go grab one for myself. I love it (and recommend it) for several reasons: It's oversized, and therefore very comfortable for the poolside or beach. It's white, although I did see it in teal as well. It has the cutest little pom poms. It also was very inexpensive :) Gotta love Old Navy. They have been killing it lately! 

Oh and the weekend was awesome as I previously stated. It was a bit gloomy in the mornings, but otherwise very pretty weather. I went to some local wineries for my friend's belated birthday celebration. I go to our wineries too often, I'm thinking people are starting to wonder. I just so happen to enjoy wine. And, hubby and I are wine club members at Miramonte, so it's very convenient (read: cheap). We also did a lot of lounging at home, followed by pool time. 

How was your weekend?

Good morning pretty girls, I hope you are all having a wonderful long weekend filled with the three F's - food, friends, and of course fashion! Summer is right around the corner and I'm finally starting to get into that carefree mode (although we've been having some gloomy weather this week). This linen slouchy t-shirt from Zara helps quite a bit, with its grid print and coral flowers. It reminds me of Hawaii and it's probably the closest I'll get to it for a long while. I decided to dust off my beloved Chanel for a casual but glam contrast.
