Channeling my inner pin-up girl with this look a few days ago for a celebratory dinner. I wanted to wear a body hugging red stripes skirt that’s long (most I found were knee length) so I made this skirt; and decided to do a little print mixing with my diy polka dots halter top.

This is one of my fave tee (the quote is so cute, also seen here) and my go-to weekend shorts yesterday to meet up with a friend. I just love the look of a simple tee with distressed denims and a killer pair of heels.

Hope you had a blast weekend! It was insanely hot here in the Bay Area (about 90 degrees yesterday) and even though I was sweating bullets, I’m so excited that the weather is heating up!

With the temperatures heating up in the 90’s, I wanted to discuss a pre-summer staple in my closet. The little swing dress.

I wore this swing dress that I made a while back on Mother’s Day to hang with the family and just spent the whole day relaxing, lounging and eating. It’s my perfect “daytime dress” because while the silhouette is very girly and feminine, the fit and flare adds a playful element to a comfortable and easy-going style.. This classic dress can be accessorized in so many ways and it can be dressed up with heels or dressed down with flats.  It’s definitely my favorite versatile dress at the moment and perfect for consuming all-you-can-eat family buffets without feeling too self conscious. You know, sometimes a girl just want to let it all hang out without really letting it all hang out. Solution = swing dress! :)

Hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s Day and am I glad it’s Thursday, a little bit closer to freedom!
