Jackie O!

The Style Icon

Today would have been Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis' 84th Birthday.  The remarkable woman taught us all so much about style and class.  She is the classic prep and she wore Jack Rogers!

Seersucker & Jack Rogers Wedges

I am loving the J.Crew Factory Skimmer pants right now.  I have a couple of pairs and am dying to add a few more colors to my wardrobe.  Last night I went to a community event with my parents and wore my seersucker skimmer pants with a navy silk top.  I love how the skimmer pants can be dressed up or down and comfortable yet professional.

Get my look - J.Crew Factory Skimmer Pants in Seersucker, J.Crew Button Down Blouse (similar), J.Crew belt, Kate Spade crossbody bag, Kate Spade watch, 

David Yurman bracelets (1, 2, 3) & ring, Jack Rogers Wedges

A big thank you to Christina from The Quarter Life Closet for helping me edit my photos!

April Showers!

Kate Spade Umbrella | Petit Bateau Raincoat | Jack Rogers Georgica Jelly Sandals

Joules Rain Boot | Longchamp Medium Tote | Modcloth Ring Holder 

1. Kate Spade Umbrella | How fabulous is this Kate Spade umbrella? With this stylish accessory above your head you can't be too upset with Mother Nature.  Having a fun umbrella to cover my head on a stormy day almost makes me wish for rain.

2. Petit Bateau Raincoat | In Florida I am always in need of a light jacket to keep me warm and dry on a stormy afternoon.  You can never be quite sure when a quick Florida storm will pop out of nowhere so you must always be prepared!  This raincoat is a great go-to jacket to through in your purse as your running out the door to class or work.

3. Jack Rogers Georgia Jelly Sandal | During the summer Florida can be very warm, but you don't want to get caught in a summer shower wearing your nice white Jack's!  These Jack Rogers jelly sandals are stylish and perfect for a day with a questionable forecast. 

4. Joules Rain Boot | It is always important to have a good stylish pair of rain boots in your wardrobe.  Particularly if you have to walk a ways to class or work.  I speak from experience... walking across a college campus during a torrential downpour is not fun! 

5. Longchamp Medium Tote | I cannot say enough times how reliable Longchamp bags are.  Whether it's to tote your books to and from class or to carry all your must-have belongings from day-to-day, Longchamp bags are great for any occasion.  Plus they won't get ruined if you get caught in a storm.

6. Modcloth Ring Holder | How much fun is this ring holder from Modcloth?  It is the perfect thing to keep all your rings together in one safe place.

What is your go-to rainy day gear?

Orange Cords

Recently, I have been obsessed with my orange corduroy pants from J.Crew.  I have been dying to dress in fall clothes, but as usual Florida has been way to warm... until this week!  The past few days it has been in the 60s until mid morning and has only been highs in the low-80s.  Not quite fall weather yet, but really pleasant temperatures.

Top 5 Tuesday: Most Worn Items in My Closet

Today I am linking up with Just Peachy to bring you Top 5 Tuesday.  This weeks topic is most worn items in your closet.

1. Jackie Cardigan | I love cardigans.  I wear them all the time.  Since I live in Florida and it tends to be hot all the time, I love to wear light weight cardigans because I am almost always cold inside.  Plus, I love that these cardis come in just about any color you can imagine.

2. 5" Chinos | Chinos are another staple in my wardrobe.  The 5" chinos from J.Crew are very flattering and I think they are a great length for any body type.  Since it's so hot here I wear these shorts at least a few times a week.  They are perfect for class!

3.  Jack Rogers | These are by far my favorite pair of sandals.  They go with everything from a sundress to a pair of shorts.  They are great for spring and summer and the platinum color is perfect for transitioning into fall.  I wear these sandals way too much!

4.  Longchamp Tote | Medium Longchamp totes are perfect for just about any occasion.  Plus they pack so well, so they are great for travel.  I use mine almost every day.  It is by far my favorite bag.

 5. Pearl Earrings | Pearls are the perfect everyday earring.  They are simple and sophisticated and they go with everything.

Go For the Gold!

The opening ceremonies of the 2012 London Olympics are tonight. So I thought it would be a great time to highlight some of the things I'm loving that are gold.  Gold accessories go with so many things.  Adding a bit of gold to any outfit is a great way to dress it up or add a fun pop of sparkle to your daily attire.  

So many designers are hitting it out of the park this season with the gold and silver accessory options.  I love them all!

riding the heat wave.

Has it been crazy hot where you are???  It's been super hot here.  I think the best way to stay cool during the summer is to wear a fun cotton sundress.  J.Crew and Ann Taylor LOFT both have great collections of summer dresses.  I love pairing them with Jack Rogers and fun jewelry.

july fourth looks i love.

It's almost the 4th of July and I am so excited!  Tonight the city is putting on a grand fireworks show to start off everyone's holiday with a bang.  The Fourth is one of the most fun holidays to dress for, in my opinion.  Red, White & Blue are great color combos for outfits in the summer.  Plus it's the perfect day to wear anything nautical, which I love!

white denim.

Recently I've been wearing white jeans all the time.  They go with just about everything and are great to go from day to night with just a few quick adjustments.  Pair them with a cotton tee for an afternoon movie and change into a silk top for a night out.  Wear them with flats during the day and wedges at night.  It's as easy as that... you can get so much use out of them!

trend: tunics.

One of my favorite summer trends this year is the tunic.  Tunic tops look great with straight leg jeans.  Tunic dresses are great for parties or as a swimsuit cover-up.  Tunics are so versatile and fun!

I love this Lilly Pulitzer tunic top.  I think it would look great with white jeans and gold wedges for a night out with friends or to see a summer movie.  I particularly love the coal color and teal embroidery on this tunic.

This navy and cream tunic is great for warm summer days and is a great shirt to take from day to night. 

Anthropologie Matana Tunic

Lauren by Ralph Lauren Belted Stripe Tunic

This J.Crew tunic is great as a casual summer dress or a swimsuit cover-up.  I would pair it with Jack Rogers sandals and a straw tote.  This is a perfect item to pack on vacation, since you can use it for two outfits.

Three-quarter length tunics are great to wear to a summer movie.  They add a little more warmth (for the freezing theater) while still being cool and summery!

Mother's Day Gifts.

It's almost Mother's Day and that means it's time to start thinking about what to buy your fabulous Mom.  I always have trouble finding the perfect Mother's Day gift.  When I was younger I would sometimes make a gift or my Dad would simply buy her a gift and put my name on it.  But, now that I am old enough to do my own shopping, I must search for a gift that my Mom will love and that I can afford. 

Sometimes, it's hard to pick out clothes or shoes for someone else without knowing if it will work or not.  But, if you know that your Mom wears the same size in a specific item, then you can be pretty sure that your gift will work.  If you aren't sure about what size to get (or if your Mom wears different sizes depending on the item), then I would recommend getting an accessory item like jewelry or a handbag. 

Here are a few ideas for dear 'ole Mom.

day at the beach.

It's almost summer time, which means it's almost beach time!  Even though I live in Florida and the beach is only a few hours away, I don't get to the coast very often.  I wish I could spend every weekend looking at the beautiful ocean, but sadly that is not my reality... But, a girl can dream! One nice thing about living in Florida though, is the weather is typically perfect for the pool or sitting outside.  Recently, I have been spending a lot of time sitting at a table under an umbrella at Starbucks or at my apartment doing homework.  It has been so nice!

It's March Madness, which is one of my favorite times of year!  The Gators are doing great in the NCAA Tournament this year and have made it all the way to the Elite Eight.  I am so excited for the game this afternoon against Louisville.  If I was at the game, I would love to be wearing an adorable outfit like this one...

(tank, shorts, necklace, sandals)

or this one...

Go Gators! Beat Louisville!

Have you been watching March Madness?

jack rogers.

Jack Rogers are my favorite shoes.  They are super cute and easy to throw on for class, church or just about anything you have planned for the day.  Jack Rogers transition seamlessly from super-casual to dressy.  Jacks are great for spring and summer, but also (depending on the color) transition well into fall too (or winter in Florida).  I am dying for a pair of Jacks flats, but haven't taken the plunge and ordered any yet... but soon!
