30 for 30: Oh glorious day

Friday, February 18, 2011

As luck would have it, I chose the perfect day to take off from work... because I can't get enough of this 70 degree weather!! No bragging about how this is the norm from west coasters, ok? :) You betcha I spent most of the day outside, soaking up the sun and getting my tan on. I'm already dark enough, but with this weather, who wants to spend it indoors?! Perhaps Punxsutawney Phil is right after all, spring can't come soon enough!

top: Gap
belt: Old Navy
flats: Miu Miu (similar)

  2. Great look! Those flats are so precious!

    So glad you had such nice weather on your day off!! Do you get Monday off, as well?

    We are supposed to get about an inch of rain tomorrow, which is a lot for Vegas! Excited to stay home, clean, and listen to the rain! :)

  7. I normally don't notice bags, but your Balenciaga is just catching my eye today! It's so perfect with your whole outfit and I love that grey-ish color. Ever since I got my orange coat, now I want a nice bag to go with it too (probably not a good thing, since we're all on a budget this year)

  9. I live on the East coast so we saw 70 degrees yesterday too! I'm not too jealous of the weather you see over there (ok maybe just a little). I love the way you tied the sweater on your shoulders. My shoulders are too broad for my frame so it doesn't look as effortless as you do!

  14. @Simply Bubblelicious - Sorry to hear about the rain. I would still love to have the year-round 70 degree weather though!

    @Michelle - Nope, no holiday on Monday for me. But at least I still had a 3 day weekend :)

    @kileen - Hehe, two of my weaknesses are that apparent, huh :)

    @lisa, @olyvia, @curls-and-pearls - Thanks :) I really should photograph the Bal more often in sunlight. She looks so much better than indoors.

    @Victoria, @katou - Thank you!

    @Stylepint - Haha, yes! When I draped the sweater over my shoulders I thought to myself, hmm... perhaps a bit too country club-ish. But I like the preppy look, so it's ok.

    @Francesca - Definitely give them a try. I have to say my comfiest pair of flats are from Target for less than $20. But designer flats are just adorable.

    @Banhannas - Oops! Sorry for the confusion. I'm on the east coast too, around DC, so a few states above you. I'm dreading the cold front already.

    @JenlovesBal - I am SO READY for spring it's not even funny :)

    @kimmie - I'll trade you my tan for your gorgeous hair :)

  15. I love how casual and cute your outfit looks. Those flats are adorable. I have been into buying flats lately because I know I will be wearing them more often than heels.

  16. ahhhh, I miss the sun. sooooooo jealous. how is the house hunting going?

    ReplyDelete
  17. What a fun casual outfit! You look so chic yet comfy and cool!

  18. @Nelah - Glad to hear you're a flats converter! The ones you've bought recently are absolutely adorable.

    @Lisa - House hunting hasn't really been happening, lol. But I happened to come across an open house last night so we went to check it out today. Priced alright, quite spacious, but there is a huge electrical tower in the backyard, literally less than 100 feet away. It might just be a mental thing, but that's a dealbreaker =/

    @Lisa - respect the shoes - Thanks Lisa!

  19. I love this outfit...we had 70 degree weather on Friday, too, and I brought out the bare legs for a couple of hours, just because I am so beyond tired of tights. My legs were just a touch (or maybe a little more than a touch) too blindingly white for such a thing, but I couldn't resist.

    Love the green belt with this outfit, and the sweater around the shoulders. So fantastic :)

  20. Ohh this makes me want spring NOW! Lol. I adore your flats and your divine bag. Is your belt a men's tie? If so, that is so creative! I love it either way. Great pop of color.
