Perfection! Look, I don't want to talk about fall, you don't want to talk about fall. We all want to enjoy the dog days of summer. But eventually the time will roll around when you need a sweatshirt and jeans again. And I humbly submit this for your consideration. We all love our big sweatshirts but look how much more elegant it is if you simply opt for a more fitted cut. If you don't have tattered boyfriend jeans...why not?! They ought to be in your closet! And a sassy shirt and a sassier heels. The shirt is by Zoe Karssen and you can visit the website above for the rest of the designers!

Such wonderful pink and purple eye shadow. In love with the pop of hot pink right in the center of the lash line.

Margaritas Y'all!

I have got a margarita mix for you! I just picked up a bottle of Williams-Sonoma Margarita Mixer in Pomegranate-Cherry and it is delicious! Not too sweet or artificial, let's the tequila flavor come through nicely, yet adds just a little flavor to your average margarita. And a salted rim really compliments it as well (pink Himalayan salt looks perfect!). Delicious! And they also have key lime and mango passion fruit. Try 'em here. Not too bad at $15.

St Tropez

Pampelonne Beach, St. Tropez, France. How very geometrical of them! But seriously, the orange and the blue? Gorgeous! We should all be so lucky.

There is something to be said for a simple, black and white, tailored suit, shirt and tie. You cannot go wrong, gentlemen.

Fashion Pet Peeve of the Day: Summer Scarves

For the love of all that is holy, it is literally 100 degrees out, you don't need a scarf! Believe me, I can make many exceptions and or allowances in the name of fashion, but this is one with which I just can't cope. New rule: no scarves (I don't care how light and fluffy and breezy - cuz you bake under that shit regardless) unless it dips into the 70s.
