A few nights ago I had the pleasure of attending RewardStyle’s Back to School night. They gathered quite a few bloggers in Fort Mason and talked all things blogging and social media. Anytime I get together with bloggers I am instantly more comfortable busting out my crazy duds. If you remember this top from this post, I love it, but Cesar doesn’t so I tend to reserve it for girls only evenings.

This time I paired it with my favorite BR jeans that i’m actually dying to get a second pair of. These have been true workhorses and no designer jean even comes close.

And a few other embellished tops i’m obsessed over. Like really, poor Cesar.

Ombre Orange + Longer Length Peplum

I told you these jeans would make quite a few appearances on the blog. This time, worn with a top over the high waist, and i’m equally as in love. I’ve had this peplum top for years. When I was in college I studied abroad in Brussels and made frequent weekend trips to Paris to shop. During one of those trips I came away with this stunning rust/orange peplum. It is a bit longer in the back than the front, and hits me lower at my hips than i’m used too, posing a bit of a style challenge.

The top has somewhat of a scooped back, if you can tell in this photo. This creates a beautiful silhouette and doesn’t cut the tush in half at the widest part. I paired it with very tapered, slimming bottoms and basic shoes to keep the attention upward. I also added this gorgeous J.Crew bubble necklace that I scored years and years ago on Ebay for dirt cheap.

One thing about this top is that any bra line or bra spillage shows through. In other words, it is absolutely necessary to wear a complete coverage t-shirt bra. I’m wearing this one and couldn’t recommend it more.

Reworking a Club Monaco Maxi

Aritzia top (love this one from Equipment), Club Monaco maxi (last styled here), Madewell belt, Sam Edelman sandals

Bringing an Outfit of the Day from Instagram to the blog for a change! Just a casual daytime outfit reworking my favorite Club Monaco maxi for a sunny but chilly day in the city. I added a classic belt to cinch the waist and fun curly hair for an even more casual look. To achieve this layered look simply take your favorite silk shirt, button the first two buttons and tie the remaining in a knot. Tuck it under a wider belt and you’re done!

If you’re interested in how I achieved this curly haired look, check out this video on my youtube channel.

Review: Madewell Deckhouse Sweater

Since moving to San Francisco i’ve found myself stocking up on sweaters. Because the temperature isn’t freezing, but also isn’t warm enough for short sleeves or just a long sleeve t-shirt, lightweight sweaters are essential for surviving here. This Madewell striped number is a departure from anything else I own and i’m loving the slouchy fit but girly detail with the low neckline. And, confession, this is only the second patterned sweater I have. I know, i’m bad.

Check out my Instagram for a second way I paired this sweater for even more definition and flirtatiousness!

Oh, and because i’m always up for a fashion challenge, I took on one of my readers who dared me to style a leather dress in a flattering way. So, I give you the leather dress styled for day and evening!
