Hot Fall Print: Snake Print

Hey y'all!

I was literally supposed to write this blog post like 3 hours ago, but I fell into a deep dark hole looking for wedding shoes. Spoiler alert... I still haven't found any. I'm taking my dress to my first fitting next week and I'm kind of freaking out! If you have any suggestions for cute wedding shoes, please send them my way. 

Anyway, let's move on to today's outfit before I have a mini panic attack! 

I've talked a lot about how much I love leopard print this fall. (See here, here, & here) Today I want to talk about another hot fall print... snake skin.

I have been seeing snake print EVERYWHERE!! I haven't pulled the trigger on anything other than a pair of booties until this past weekend. I've been patiently waiting to find some perfect pieces and when I saw this kimono I knew it was just the one. I like that it's so easy to style and adds a little pop to my all black outfit. I bought it on Saturday and immediately  wore it to brunch on Sunday to celebrate Parkside Harbor 1 year anniversary. You know it's a great piece when you just can't wait to wear it! 

Kimino: The Black Pearl Boutique don't currently see it online (similar here, here, & here) | Tank: Nordstrom | Jeans: Old Navy | Booties: Old (similar here & here) | Sunnies: Quay | Lipstick: Laura Mercier shade Happy (can't find it so similar here in  shade Rouge Eclatant)

Summer Kimono

If you know me then you know I love palm print. If you’re new around here let me just put it out there that I am OBSESSED with palm print. Anything palm print. Clothing. Art. Home Décor. Just give me all the palm print! I saw this kimono on a few bloggers last summer and knew I had to have it. Unfortunately, it was sold out for a while. Earlier this spring when I was placing a rather large Amazon purchase I saw it was back in stock and immediately hit add to cart. Luckily it is still available in all sizes and comes in 6 other prints. (I went with a medium, which is my normal size, and I almost wish I had sized down to a small.)

I love how you can wear it a few different ways. Today I wanted to show you how I styled it with an actual outfit. This is perfect for grabbing lunch or shopping on a Saturday. Bonus if you are doing these things in a beach town. These jean shorts are a million years old, but my absolute favorites as of late. My tank is 2 years ago from Topshop, but I found really great pieces that are very similar.

I also love this piece thrown over a bathing suit for a day by the pool. Looks great with one pieces or bikinis!

Kimono: Amazon | Tank: Topshop old (similar here, here, & here) | Shorts: Urban Outfitters old (same brand almost identical here) | Sandals: Steve Madden | Sunnies: Quay Australia | Lipstick: MAC Cosmetics Satin Lipstick in Snob | Watch Band: Amazon

What’s everyone’s plans this weekend? It’s going to be super hot here so I think I’ll be lounging by the pool for most of the weekend.

I hope you have a great Friday and even better weekend. Thanks for stopping by J

Floral Transition

TGIT! (Thank God it's Thursday!)

This week has been pretty long for this gal.

It's also been EXTREMELY hot here in Florida. I'm talking temps in the mid 80's! Like what? It's February. With this heat wave, it has me grabbing for some lighter pieces, but I'm not ready to fully give up my winter wardrobe for spring just yet. This kimono is perfect for this time of year; because the floral print embodies springtime, but the black background lends itself to a more wintery look. Here I paired it with a tank, jeans and fur loafers. However, when the temps really sky rocket I can throw it on with shorts and some espadrilles or sandals. I really love pieces like this because I am not the girl to wear things once. The best part is this kimono is currently on sale. There is also a pair of matching pants (on sale too) that I am thinking about purchasing to try out the full pajama look. Not 100% sure I can pull it off, but we'll see.

Tank: Topshop old (similar here & here) | Kimono: Dillard's |  Jeans: Lulu's old (normally I would wear these, but they were dirty) | Loafers: Target (similar here) | Sunnies: Sonix | Lipstick: Urban Decay Vice Lipstick in Hideaway

How is the weather where you are? I can't believe it's in the 80's here; as it snowed in the mid-west earlier this week. I'm hoping we get a few more cold days before we fully head into spring. I like the cold more than the heat, and that be because I live in FL and its hot 90% of the year. 

Anyway, thanks for reading and I hope everyone has a great Thursday! I will actually have a Five on Friday post tomorrow, so make sure you come back and check that out!
