Happy Valentine's Day.

Whether or not you have a significant other this Valentine's Day, think of at least one thing you love about YOU.. and treat yourself to some sweets while you're at it :)

Just a few people that I love!

Ombre.

I'm a little late in the game, but I'm going to get my hair done like this, ombre. I've been wanting to for a while now and after going brunette, I thought lightening my ends would be fun. I love how easy going the look is. What do you think of the ombre hair color?

Blazin' Orange.

I've found myself slightly obsessed with this shade of orange lately. I truly think this could be "the next" color. I'm doing a bit of trend forecasting but keep your eyes peeled for it!

Trend to Try: Sheer Maxi Skirt.

I don't know about you, but I've been dying to try out a sheer maxi skirt! I think maxi's looks great paired with a loose, light-weight sweater and a pair of platforms. This skirt is from Nasty Gal (my guilty pleasure), and if I had all the money in the world, this would already be in my closet. Instead, I will be on the prowl for one more in my price range.. maybe I'll even make one!

Treasures.

Went to one of my favorite little flea markets this morning and came home with arms full of goodies! The dress above is my favorite purchase today. It's from the 1940's and is insanely perfect. I'm head over heals in love with it. Below is a shirt I got from H&M yesterday and I've already worn it twice. It's a great camel color. 

[the lady selling this bag told me that her and her daughter both loved this bag and used it for a long time. I love things with history]

[This old napkin holder matched my room perfectly and makes for quite a good mail holder]

[I had been looking for a mirror to put in this space above my dresser but found this antique candelabra today and fell in love]

Flare.

I have this infatuation with flare jeans.

Litas and Lace Dresses.

Found this dress a while ago originally to sell on my site, Theodora Vintage, however, I love it so much that I'm not sure I can part ways with it! Today's breezy wind was perfect for this flowy vintage dress and my new hat kept my hair in-tact and out of my face. 

Worn with Jeffrey Campbell Lita boots, H&M hat, and a vintage necklace.

DIY White Board.

Heather of Pretty Little Inspiration surprised me with this unique DIY white board for my birthday! It's such a fun and simple DIY and makes for a great gift. I'm in the process of cleaning out and organizing my room and this white board is going to be so helpful for my many to-do lists I create throughout the week. 

Do it Yourself:
1. Find a frame you like. I love the rustic touch this frame has.
2. Choose a pretty piece of fabric or paper to put in the frame as a background. Heather chose this white lace paper.
3. Get some fun markers to write on it with and vuala... you just made a white board.

Sunny Day for Sam Edelman.

A sunny day indeed. My gorgeousssss Sam Edelman Zoe booties came in the mail Monday and I'm in love! They fit to the T and to my surprise are not only comfortable, but super easy to walk in! Although, I have yet to wear them for an 8 hour work shift. I got this shirt recently and I like it so much that I might go back and get it in white too! It's so unique and I love that it's longer in back and cropped in front. Can't wait to play around with how to wear it. You can see it in white on one of my favorite bloggers, FadetoBlack, by clicking here.

Birthday Girl.

This past Friday was my birthday! It's usually "just another day" for me but this year was a bit different. Taryn of Style-Phenomenon, took me for a surprise lunch at a beautiful beach front restaurant in Laguna Beach where the weather was to die for. She then topped off the amazing day with getting me Sam Edelman Zoe boots for my birthday! It was by far the best birthday I've had yet and I couldn't have spent with a more lovely person. Thanks Taryn!

[These beauties! Can't wait for them to come in the mail!]
