| printed denim & printed denim |

We went out to dinner last night for my birthday, Jeff gave me a few choices and I opted for a favorite we don't visit often: Urban Solace in North Park.  It's so easy to want to stay inside your bubble but venturing out is so fun and so is the overall vibe of North Park!  Urban Solace is so yummy, if you haven't been, I highly recommend it.  

The weather has been so nice (borderline HOT!) this week that I decided I wanted my birthday dinner outfit to be light and airy but not too casual.  This printed denim and denim look- woah, mixing two of my fav spring trends was perfect and finishing the look with my favorite gladiators was a no brainer while tying my whole birthday look together.  

hope you all have a great weekend. xxoo

| spring trend: matching sets |

happy thursday! i talked about my obsession with matching sets for spring on monday: this trend is so fun and daring. I paired the j crew flower patch peasant top and 3" chinos with hot pink accessories to make it even more fun!  Both of the flower patch pieces are going to be amazing by themselves but together they are too right for Spring.  Are you guys feeling the matching set trend for spring?!

| trending for spring, part two |

happy monday!  I am so excited to talk about another trend for spring, I've been lusting over the matching trend set for sometime now and here's why: I think the matching set trend is so versatile; wear one on a tropical vaca with a crop top and skirt, throw on pants and a bomber for errands around town, or  spice up your boring office getup with a pencil skirt and peplum.  I also love that you can mix and match the pieces with solids to add newness to your spring wardrobe.  The best part about this trend is you can find a set at a trendy price point store or invest in one.  Pair these looks with a simple gladiator sandal or pump and your outfit in complete.

READY SET(S), GO

Getting a matching pant and top set (in any other color than black) is on the top of my August wish list. Sets are perfect for the office, dinner date, or party.  I'm obsessed.  

You can score a cute set at any price point, check out shops like Forever 21, H & M, Zara, or Topshop for affordable wear a few time sets.
