The weather is heating up in Pittsburgh, we already turned the AC on!  I'm not complaining just yet lol but I am grateful for all of the sunshine.

I wore this ensemble to work on Sunday.  When the weather is hot all I want to wear is non-fussy pieces and natural makeup all summer long. So with this look I gravitated towards this vintage tunic and wore it with my Madewell skinnies.  My accessories included: My dainty gold necklace which was a recent Mother's Day gift from my hubby,  my go to assorted bangle stack, hoop earrings and a vintage cocktail ring. I opted for a pink/nude tone for my lippie color instead of my signature Chanel red lips.

Happy Wednesday!

Finally I pulled out these lovely vintage 1940 heels because I've been loving nude tone shoes with brights.  I guess it's a fun chic look?  

My family and I also enjoyed a spontaneous cookout with friends on Saturday and I enjoyed a going away party for a dear friend from work on Sunday.  I hope everyone had a great weekend.

Happy Monday!

I'm back from my quick trip to NYC.  It was great spending time with my bestie and attending the Versus Versace fashion show last night.  After leaving and heading home we spotted Cuba Gooding (actor) in a taxi cab right next to us.  I didn't capture the moment so oh well but cool either way.  Maxwell performed at that Fashion show.  Follow me on Instagram and view my photos from the Versace fashion show.

I wore this outfit last week to work at Madewell.  I was going for a effortless boho look.  I actually hemmed up this dress as it was an odd length.  I paired it with a Levi's light wash denim vest.  My accessories included vintage necklace, gold hoop earrings, vintage cocktail ring and a stack of bangles.

Have a great weekend and TGIF!

I hope everyone had a great weekend celebrating the special women in their lives.  I enjoyed Sunday brunch with my family at Casbah.  The food was delicious!  I initially intended to wear a more Springy ensemble but the high temp was only 52 degrees so I opted for this edgy look instead.  This is how I styled it.  I went with my natural curls down.  Then I chose to wear this dress which was a recent vintage score at the Vintage Pittsburgh Mixer.  I accompanied it with this leather jacket which is one of my prized vintage finds to date! My adornments included hoop earrings, gold chain, cocktail ring and a stack of bangles. Finally to complete my look I wore one of my favorite booties by DC Copenhagen.  I stayed warm despite the weather and enjoyed spending time with my family.

Happy Monday!

Anthro dress + Polka dotted Keds

         the look:       

Anthro dress
Polka dotted Keds - Madewell

        the details:     

Sock bun
Vintage bracelet worn as a pendant
Assorted vintage bangles
Dangle earrings
Vintage rings

      the lowdown:     

I wore this to my Swap & Shop event last Saturday.  I wanted to pull off an effortless casual chic look and this is how I styled it.  I started off by pulling my hair up into my go to sock bun (mostly used on bad hair days or running out of time).  Then I chose some jewelry to pull the look together.  I've been loving this bracelet as a pendant because it's too loose on my wrist. Finally I chose some comfy kicks because I knew I was going to be loading and unloading my stuff in and out of my car. I actually had another pair of sandals to change into but decided to leave these on and I'm loving the vibe the Keds added to this look!

Wishing you all a great weekend!  TGIF
