I’ve written about Charlotte Olympia’s zodiac shoes before, and I think they deserve another mention. But lately I’m especially into the zodiac clutch collection. You may have noticed on Sunday I added the Gemini clutch to my list (there on the right). These clutches are such a gorgeous and personal accessory.
Naturally I like my sign, Pisces, the least.

There’s something about putting on a silk dress that makes my heart happy. It just feels good. And when you feel good you look good. And when the dress is as pretty as this Calypso silk dress, well then I call that lucky.
calypso elliot bead embellishment silk dress c/o, old derek lam blazer (similar awesome blazer here)
christina jervey gold cuff c/o, j.crew janey flats, lizzie fortunato clutch
It has the prettiest bead embellishments on the front and down the sides.
And these J.Crew Janey flats are a favorite in my closet. Don’t you love that little gold heel? I wear them with so much. They come in a zillion different colors and patterns, but really, I counted 19 different variations. That’s awesome.
I’m looking forward to pairing this dress with my Rosmore Booties this fall, too! Woop woop.

This ruffled hem sweatshirt is ah – ma – zing. That little ruffle lends the perfect feminine touch to a simple sweatshirt, allowing it to feel both girly and dressed up while giving it a layered look.
I love those high tops, especially with the shredded jeans. But if you want a more dressy look try these heels – they’re so fun and a great price.
And you already know I’m a Foley + Corinna fan – I’ve been carrying my tote around all summer. Love this black leather version for fall.
How’s your weekend going? The kids are at Grandmas so we’re trying to decide what to do tonight. I’m craving good pasta – Trattoria Lucca sounds pretty nice… Or maybe Taco Boy. Or maybe just stay in? Who knows.
- The images from this photoshoot for Hansel from Basel are enchanting.
- Feeling honored to be included in Glitter Guide’s top 5 nursery designs. I’m in some crazy good company. Thanks GG!!
- Speaking of Glitter Guide, I LOVED their feature on my dear friend Deirdre’s Candy Shop Vintage jewelry line. You’ve seen me wear her elephant necklace. She’s an amazing person who deserves to shine!
- To all my mommas sending kids off to school (whatever grade) – in between stocking up on the right number of glue sticks and crayons, take a moment and read this note. I think we all can think of a couple of “Adams” and can all agree that we would like our children to to be compassionate little beings.
- My friend Erica Cook had the most beautiful home feature in the August issue of Rue Magazine. I really love that girl. She’s a beautiful person on the inside and out.
- Did you see Loren Hope’s new Fall collection? The jewels look good. REAL good.
- As always, I’ve been updating the LLL Boutique with lots of good favorites. Come see what’s new!
Happy Friday, Everyone. I’d just like to give a little reminder to reach out to the ones you love and tell them so this weekend. The ones you may not see everyday. You’ll be glad you did.

I fell down the rabbit hole last night after clicking over to Kate Spade Saturday from Pinterest. Why has it been so long since I’ve been on that site? They have the cutest things. I corralled a few favorites to give y’all a peek. I mean, that floral dress there in the middle (see how I let her shine?) really outta be mine. While we’re at it – that floral blouse, too.
The line is so wearable, yet feminine and special. And I love that many of the items come in a wide range of colors. I clicked into their sale section, too, and holy moly there are some good things to be had. I especially love this crossover dress, this reversible cape, and this long sleeve romper that my friend Liz wore so well.
