Ocean Tweed

Dress: Tory Burch via Nordstrom Rack // Earrings: Loft // Watch: Michael Kors // Glasses: Prada // Shoes: Steve Madden // Lips: MAC - Girl About Town

This dress makes me think of the ocean - but woven into a tweed fabric. I am a big fan of shift dresses and I can be seen wearing quite a few of them. So I like to mix them up by having a few in brighter colors and unique textures. Great workplace option!

Every Day Nails

1 // 2 // 3 // 4

I rarely go without nail polish on any given day. To me - having my nails freshly painted in an appealing color makes me feel put together and polished. And no, this doesn't have to an expensive habit. With practice - I paint my own nails 95% of the time. 

So today I wanted to share with you my four "go-to" colors for any day of the year. Of course with Fall approaching I am craving the deep burgundies and chocolate colors. In the Spring and Summer, I can't help but be pulled towards the bright pinks and orangey hues. But these four colors work for me all year round and are very accepted in the workplace. Both OPI Bubble Bath and Essie's Sand Tropez are great choices for a nude color. Essie's Mink Muffs gives me a little bit bolder edge to the nude and a simple, classic red, like Chanel's Dragon, never goes out of style.

As much as I am craving the deep bold colors of Fall, the cozy knits and sleek leather accents...it is still 100 degrees in NC and I keep coming back to my summer colors and light weight pieces. I guess I'm just going to have to keep living through my magazines until Fall actually arrives.
