My Friday outfit is usually pretty casual – skinny jeans, stripe shirts, comfy jackets, and flat boots to go to the office or run errands. But when I’m heading out to a dinner party and late night cocktails, I tend to stick with my red skinny cropped pants that are super comfortable but still feel dressed up for the occasion.

This JCrew stripe shirt is one my latest JCrew stripe finds and I absolutely love it! It goes great with pants, skirts, shorts, seasonless really. Adding my favorite Gap navy blue blazer is perfect so I don’t need multiple layers to keep me warm.

Layering different prints makes an outfit fun, take my Steve Madden leopeard pointy flats for instance. Effortless look and comfy to the T. Earrings are from Forever21 and bracelet from Mint Julep.

I love hosting dinner parties; having people over and cooking can be very fun. Although it’s usually Will who does most of the cooking, I like to organize, plan and do a few appetizers, it must be the planner in me.

This H&M polka dots dress (last seen here) is one of my favorite dinner outfits and matches my Anthropology polka dots apron. Double polka dots, yes please!

Winter at the Beach

Winter at the beach has a bittersweet feeling to it. You still enjoy the view but wish it was warmer to go in the water. I wore a Zara red blazer, JCrew boy shirt in Carrick Tartan, Guess by Marciano skinny jeans (last seen here), Steve Madden Intyce boots (my favorite pair) as I went to the shops in East Hampton later, hence the outfit.

My red blazer is one of those pieces I have in my closet I love and although I want to wear it all the time, I have to space it out and pick the perfect match. The JCrew shirt is the perfect example. It keeps it colorful, classic and trendy! Hope everyone is having a good week, xoxo!
