Look of the Day: i heart it

Yesterday Jen had the grand idea to make chili to eat while we were watching the the Niner's Monday Night football game. So she called her mom up and got her secret recipe and then we scurried around to collect all the ingredients.

Since Jen and I had so much fun with our photo-shoot on Sunday, I decided to pull over at a little spot that I thought would be the perfect backdrop for the hippie dresses we were wearing. It's kind of fun posing a taking pictures, and really those big bright hearts is just asking to be a backdrop in pictures.

My dress was purchased on a whim in Venice. After spending almost two weeks with just the boys, I ran into a random store, saw this dress and purchased it without trying it on. Yesterday Jen told me it's her favorite dress of mine. I heart this dress.

Look of the Day: Playing Favorites

I'm not good with favorites. I'm too indecisive to just pick one. Favorite color? Blue, Pink, Grey, green, it's hard to choose. Favorite Food? Um, I don't know, does Ketchup count?

Luckily sometimes my favorites things show me they are my favorite, rather then making me choose.
Favorite Movie? well Breakfast at Tiffany's rarely gets put back in the case.
Favorite Coffee Mug? The one that is always in the dish washer.
Favorite shoes, ?he ones that are worn to pieces.

This Rachel Pally Zuma top is evidently one of my favorite pieces to grab. It goes from a wear, to washer, to ready to be hang mode but rarely makes back into the closet before I grab it to throw on.I remember I first purchased it last summer after seeing it's versatility in Shopbop's Ultimate Closet (a favorite feature of mine). And when I spotted Lauren Conrad in it, I was inspired again as to how to wear it.
This is how I wore it yesterday. Just easy to grab and go.
Rachel Pally Slouchy Zuma Tee Shirt, J brand Jeggings (another thing that rarely makes it back the closet piece), headband from who knows where, and my go to Cynthia Vincent sandals (again those rarely make it off my feet) .
In fact I love this shirt so much I re-wore over and over on my Europe Trip.
Let's see where this shirt has been.
Cheering on Deutschland in the World Cup.
On the Lake in Austria.
At a Hotel in Italy.
Visiting Piazza San Marco in Venice.
And Lauren Conrad wearing the Rachel Pally Zuma Shirt.
And How Shopbop styled the Rachel Pally Zuma Tee.


Yay for favorite things, a piece of clothing you can always rely on, and for getting your money's worth out of an overpriced tee.
