Look of the Day: Perfectly Pinned

Yesterday I went out to dinner with my girlfriends V, Jen and Annie. Annie just got back from a trip to Japan, Thailand and Singapore, so it was fun to hear about her experiences-- which included feeding a baby tiger and elephant. She also gave us some souvenirs. Thanks Annie!

My experimentation with pattern mixing patterns continued yesterday as I mixed stripes and gingham.

The outfit was missing a little something so I added a big flower, Emerson Made style.
It made all the difference!

Happy Friday! Anyone have any fun plans for the weekend?

    I love Emerson Made. I got a few Emerson Made flowers and seriously, they elevate my outfit to a completely different level.
    Love the outfit lady!

    I love the combination! Today I'm wearing stripes with leopard print, there must be something in the air! I think the flower looks great too with it.
