Naughty Naughty Nautical

You guys seriously have the most lovely wardrobe suggestions for the rope bracelets giveaway. No, really. You do. The vast majority of you would like to wear the rope bracelets with some navy, stripes, and wedges. And what I love about this style is that it's chic, pretty, and preppy without being overdone. It's also way easy to put together. Oh great... now I REALLY want to be on a boat! Preferably some place really sunny and warm. Hey, someone should have a boat giveaway! *Dreaming... dreaming...* But I digress... here are some nautical-inspired pieces I think would look superb with either of the rope bracelets.

Letter of the day is D for denim

Not all denim is created equal. I live in denim. Well, denim and leggings. What am I going to do this summer?! Anyway, I only started wearing skinny jeans in the last year because I couldn't find a pair that looked good for my body type. I gave up all hope... until last year. I went searching, and I mean really searching for some top notch skinny jeans. A pair that would do my bum some justice. I was already a Paige girl so of course those were my 1st, and then my 2nd, and then my 3rd and so on and so forth. Then I gave 7 for all Mankind a try. Loving those! They seem to me to have a bit more stretch, so they don't hold their shape quite as long as the Paige do. But they're super great for those not-so-skinny days. So needless to say, I have a pretty nice collection of denim now. Makes up for my lack of shoes! Here are some that I would love to add to my collection. If only I could convince my hubby that I do really need another 6 pairs of skinny jeans. He thinks they all look the same. Cha! They so DO NOT!

Verdugo Jegging June Lake | Paige Premium Denim

Skyline Drive Peg Optic White | Paige Premium Denim

Lexie Gwenevere With Clean Pocket in Dark Minnet | 7 For All Mankind

The Skinny Honey | Joe's Jeans

Collin Triangle Pocket Weiss Blue Wash | Hudson Jeans

1184 Jessica in Delano | DL1961

Deep in the Trenches

I don't know what the weather is like in your neck of the woods, but in Washington it's raining. We're finally getting some sunny days, but there's always a chill in the air. I need more sun!!! Well anyhow, the only benefit of our weather is that trench coats are the perfect way of taking that chill off, all the while looking Ah-mazing. Here's a few of my favorites. The Burberry one is on my dream list.
