East vs. West Style - Lace!

Happy Thursday Loves!

Another month has come and gone which means it's time for the East vs. West Style Collab with the oh so amazing Pamela from Sequins & Sea Breezes! This time around we're all about the lace/crochet trend which is sizzling hot this season!

I absolutely LOVE Pamela's bright coral lace shorts and can we talk about how tan she is?! They're so fun and look great paired with off set neutrals like her basic black tank, nude Tory Burch sandals and chic long necklace! Make sure to check out the rest of her look here!

Truth be told I took these photos a couple of weeks ago when I visited Dallas for my cousin Ansley's wedding. I crashed for maybe an hour or so after getting off the plan, but then got up and headed to the Grassy Knoll in downtown Dallas to see where JFK had been shot and go to the museum to learn all about it. 

The entire afternoon was spent with my family and since my sister just had her jaw surgery, she wanted as many photos taken as possible - and rightfully so! 

My hair was a hot mess from just getting off the plane so I braided my bangs back and put that strand of hair into a braid with the rest of my hair. I kind of like how it turned out!

East vs. West Coast Style: Black and White

Hey Dolls! 

Pamela and I are back at it with another rendition of East vs. West Coast Style! This month we chose to do a black and white theme and I for one was ecstatic! Black and white is so chic & classy, not to mention it perfectly transitions from one season to the next. 

Naturally I grabbed my favorite black and white top from the Loft (which seems to be getting a lot of love on the blog lately) and paired it with a faux leather skater skirt and killer heels. 

I've literally been DYING to showcase my fabulous rooftop patio since the moment I moved in, so naturally that's where these photos were taken. The sun was getting ready to set and I think the lighting worked well in my favor.

 

Dr. D kept joking my skirt was too short (shocked a guy would ever say that!) but just goes to show I truly date a gentleman y'all!

Travelin' over to the East coast we have Pamela's look! When I saw this first photo I immediately thought I was looking at an Express catalog - she's just that freakin' pretty and has the lean lines of a model!

This look is completely effortless which is why I love it so much. White denim has always been a favorite of mine since it pairs with everything and her black tie dye tank is no exception! The ankle strap shoes show off some skin to balance out the bottom half of the look and the stacked arm candy and long necklace add just enough glam to take this outfit from shopping with the girls to a night on the town!

Her pink lips and nails add just enough color to top off the outfit. I'm seriously swononing over this look and know everybody on Pinterest is going to be as well when I pin first thing after this post goes live! 

I say this every month, but seriously go check out Sequins and Seabreezes ... you won't be disappointed!

East vs West Coast Style: Pastels

Happy Thursday Loves!

I'm so excited for today's post because it's Round 2 of the East vs. West Coast Style Remix! The gorgeous Floridian Pamela and I are back and this time around we're talking Spring Pastels!

I shamefully have to admit that I completely spaced to take my photos ahead of time and literally bribed my beloved Dana to rush over to my house to take these. I've never taken night shots, she had never shot at night ... but needless to say I think they turned out great for what we had to work with!

I love any and every chance to wear pastels. The pale colors automatically make you look tanner and maybe it's just me, but they generally put me in a better mood. I wear SO much black and navy for work so it's nice to switch it up a bit!

When Pamela and I had initially decided to do pastels I immediately had 3-4 outfits run through my head. Fast forward to the night I took these photos and my mind went BLANK. I had a mint skirt paired with a hot pink tank but that seemed too much and a white short with a baby blue tank seemed too Summer-like. I was thrilled when I stumbled across this paisley pencil skirt because it's one of those items you completely forget about until you see it. Don't worry folks, this beauty will be in FULL rotation for Spring!

Isn't the little cut out in this top fun?!

Movin' on over to the East coast, Pamela looks like a straight up bombshell in her all mint ensemble with a pop of black in her gorgeous ankle strap heels!

If y'all haven't headed over to Sequins and Seabreezes then seriously what are you waiting for?! I kid, but in all seriousness Pamela's blog is one of my favorites! Her photos are always stunning, but her writing is what sucks me in -- whether she's talking about the changes in Florida's weather, vacation plans or just a random fashion tip you truly feel like you're having a conversation with one of your best girlfriends. 

 Just for shits and gigs I had to share this candid photo Dana caught last night: Hope your Thursday just got a little brighter!

East vs West Coast: Winter White

Happy Thursday Dolls! 

I'm so excited to announce a fun project I have been wanting to do for quite some time now. When I started my blog a year ago I kept seeing all kinds of fun collaborations between bloggers and kept telling myself, "One day you'll get there".

One of the first bloggers I encountered was Laura from Laura Lily at WWD Magic in Las Vegas. I would read her blog daily (and still do), but one post kept catching my eye, "East vs West Coast Style". Seeing as how I moved here from South Carolina I knew I wanted to befriend an East coast blogger who's style would not only be spot on, but a girl who would in a small way remind me of back home. Along came Pamela from Sequins and Seabreezes, my new blogger pal who was the perfect fit for such a fun collab!

Pamela's a Florida gal who's year round tan and great style immediately caught my attention. We started emailing back and forth and not only was she using the same key words I do (love, doll, babe, etc). she had the quirkiest personality I have ever come across! We've only been e-mailing for a few short weeks but I feel like I've known her for years.

We decided to make this a monthly collab, so check back every 3rd Thursday of the month so we can share how the East and West coast wears a trend. To kick things off we're talking Winter White!

Get details for her Winter White look here 

Even though it's Winter, Los Angeles doesn't really believe in that so I went with a white dress and a cream blazer. I added some glitz and color with my necklace and a fun snakeskin shoe to kick it up a notch! 

I can't be the only one who rocks a sock bun on a bad hair day right?!
