Labor day is this weekend, but that doesn't mean it's too late to wear an all-white ensemble. In fact, I love to wear monochrome looks year-round. For fall temps, throw on a denim jacket, fringe booties, a nice hat, and you're all set!

I found this gray MINKPINK dress while on an impromptu shopping trip at the downtown Seattle Nordstrom. Not only is this dress extremely flattering, but it's also great for layering making it a perfect summer to fall transition piece. It also looks adorable with a flannel shirt tied at the waist or an anorak jacket!
My profession normally doesn't require business casual attire however, I love to put together an office-appropriate ensemble for meetings (or interviews)! J.Crew's Minnie pants are just right for such occasions, and this white peplum top from Zara is a great alternative to the classic white shirt. My love affair with peplum tops began long ago and for good reason. Who wouldn't want to make their waist look smaller and be able to hide that big lunch you had? It's a win-win!
I'm in Louisville, Kentucky for work and have always wanted to try Nord's Bakery. Their famous maple bacon donut was indeed the most delicious pastry I've yet to try, and the bakery itself is nothing short of adorable. My friend Lindsay from Sprinkles for Breakfast sent me this awesome 'Doughnuts Over Everything' tee and it was perfect for the occasion! If you're in Louisville, put this yummy bakery at the top of your to-do list!

This Little Black Dress is one you can wear on repeat not only because it's a great basic, but also because it is so comfortable! The way the lightweight fabric drapes really makes my day. Perfect for a date night or even at the office with a sleek jacket, this LBD will be on heavy rotation year round.
Denim jackets possess many heroic characteristics just like Batman's cape. They're perfect for fighting off the chill on late summer nights, combat 'what to wear' dilemmas, and obviously have superfashion powers. Seriously though, denim jackets are a timeless piece that you will have in your closet for years to come. You can wear them with anything, even jeans (Canadian tuxedo, anyone?)!
I got this J.Crew Factory Denim Jacket in a lighter shade because most of my jeans are a dark wash. It certainly comes in handy for chilly nights in Seattle. Usually, I'll just tie it around my waist on the way out of the house and when the time is right, I put on my 'cape' and fly off into the sunset.
Have a great week, everyone!
I promise this will be my last post from vacation! Every night was date night on vacation, but this is also something I would wear on a date night back at home. We usually go on dates every Friday when both of us are in town. It's important to have some time with your sweetie once a week to decompress and just have fun! We started doing date nights a long time ago and it always gives me something to look forward to when I've had a hectic work week.
In Grand Cayman, we had dinner on the beach at The Wharf and it was so beautiful! It was really hot that night, so we walked on the beach all the way back to our hotel. The stars were out, the waves were crashing, and although it sounds cliche and silly, it was a pretty magical night!
It turns out the perfect swimsuit cover-up might already be in your closet! Most rectangular scarves are large enough to wear as a pareo tied around the waist or neck. I love bringing these to the beach because they're lightweight and easy to throw on over your bikini. I've linked a few of my favorites below!
