Chilly Day

Cardigan: American Apparel; Dress: Norma Kamali; V-Neck: American Apparel;
Necklace: Marc by Marc Jacobs; Leggings: American Apparel; Boots: Uggs

Today, Katie and I did one of our favorite things: going to the Marc by Marc Jacobs store. The weather was pretty chilly and left me no choice, but to wear my Uggs. It's about time I get a new pair, seeing as I've had them for three years now and worn them out pretty well.

There were a few MbMJ clothing items I wanted to take home with me (as always), but I didn't buy any of them because I'm planning on getting some Frye Engineer boots within the next few weeks. Katie also happened to point out a pair of pants that I loved. Thanks a lot, Katie! I did purchase two special items, the heart mirror compact and the monocle necklace.

I also ended up falling in love with one of the few Marc Jacobs pieces they had in store: a fur hat. I don't know why, but I am always in love with hats like this. I plan on taking a picture of me wearing it next time we go there. At least I found a stock photo to drool over.

Rainy Day

I bought some Hue tights at Nordstrom Rack the other day and could not wait to wear them. The colors I purchased are port (wine/burgundy), navy, sapphire (brighter blue), cobblestone (charcol), and black.

My New Love.

My mom and I spent last Saturday walking around Millennium Park and Michigan Avenue. Our goal was to check out the new Louis Vuitton boutique inside Nordstrom. Of course, we didn't leave empty handed. My mom bought me the one Louis Vuitton that I have been lusting over for over two years, a Damier Speedy 30. She also treated herself to a Monogram Speedy 30. I am becoming a bad influence on her when it comes to handbags. We also went to Barney's to check out their selection of Balenciaga handbags, which my mom says is next on our list. I have no complaints!

What I wore:
Dress: Bebe, Shirt: Ruehl, Handbag: Chanel, Shoes: Tory Burch

Before my Speedy, I was using my Chanel Baby Coco Cabas:

Daily Outfit x2.

Dress: Bebe, Shirt: Rogan for Target, Shoes: Sam Edelman, Handbag: Chanel

Bracelet: Marc by Marc Jacobs, Headband: J. Crew

I've been living in these shoes lately and I don't know why. Maybe it's because summer is coming to an end and I don't want to let it go. Maybe it's because I love flip flops in the summer and these are a nice change. I've also been trying to wear this headband. I bought it a few months ago and have neglected it ever since.

This next outfit I wore last night to get dinner with my parents. It was kind of chilly outside for a summer night. I've been pretty sick the past few days, so keeping it casual was a must for last night.

Daily Outfit.

Dress: Norma Kamali
Shoes: Sam Edelman
Sunglasses: Porsche Carrera

Please forgive me for the quality of the photos. My boyfriend was supposed to be home earlier to use his awesome camera, but got stuck at work, leaving me with my very old point-and-shoot.

These sunglasses are my dad's from the 80s. I was so excited when he brought them out, and even more so when he said I could have them. The best part is that they get rid of my craving for new sunglasses.

Necklace Detail

As you may know by now, I am attracted to bright colors. I found this top in a boutique while on vacation in North Carolina. I was immediately drawn to it and my favorite part are the cut-outs on the sleeves. I found the necklace in a random store in L.A. about six or seven years ago. I didn't buy it, which I quickly regretted. Surprisingly, my grandma had my aunt purchase it as a present for me. It even comes with a key, also decorated with rhinestones.

As for the shoes, they aren't pictured because we were inside and took this last minute, though they really aren't that important. I wore Teva flip flops. They weren't the ideal shoes I wanted to wear, but I always seem to wear flip flops when it's raining.
