I love seeing a good casual, yet romantic look. It's not always the easiest to pull off, but here the neutral stripes and lace work so well together. Loving the bit of edge from the sleek black oversized sunglasses and the leopard print Valentino Rockstud heels.

Get the look:
+ Marc by Marc Jacobs Square Frame Sunglasses
+ Halogen Relaxed U-Neck Tee in Grey Sconce Stripe
+ Rebecca Minkoff MAB Tote
+ Club Monaco Celeste Lace Skirt
+ Lord & Taylor Lace Overlay Pencil Skirt
+ Valentino Rockstud Leopard Heels

NEUTRAL + LIGHT | PURPLE MAGAZINE S/S 2014

One of my favorite editorials this season and it's no wonder, since it was styled by one of my fashion muses, Vanessa Traina. This might just convince me to venture outside my all-black uniform, and adopt a more neutral and light approach to minimal dressing.

WHITES + NEUTRALS | EMERSON FRY S/S 2014

I'm about to lose my mind (and bank account) going through all the new pieces from the Emerson Fry S/S 2014 collection. These whites and neutrals are exactly what I want to be wearing as the weather gets warmer. And those slides and python heels? Damn they're good.

{Wardrobe Wednesday} Phillip Lim Clutch

{ My go-to, the 31 Minute pouch }

This week's WW is all about the neutral, go-to clutch, which for me has recently become the Phillip Lim 31 minute pouch (they actually call it a cosmetics case, but who would be crazy enough to spend 300 big ones on a makeup bag?!). Anyway, I decided to update my previous staple — this vintage YSL clutch that I scored for $4 at a thrift shop — because I wanted to reduce the amount of wear it was inevitably getting. I don't know about you guys, but I like to preserve my things for as long as humanly possible, which means being mindful not to 'overexert' anything... Makes sense, right? I'd like to think so, although I'm sure Mr. AiF would tell you that's just me enabling my shopping addiction. Potato, potato.

Thanks for reading, and happy Wardrobe Wednesday!
