My favorite pair I own are these Paige Verdugo white jeans. The fit is slim, but not tight and I bought a size up. They are ankle length, but at 5’4 they are full-length for me. I also love Frame denim which fits like a dream and this white Frame version is classic, not too skinny and is again longer than shown. I’m also eyeing this pair by Goldsign, and these relaxed Kick jeans by Current/Elliott with raw cuffs, which is more trendy, but cute!

Teal Tones & Spring Inspiration
This month had the Russian Hill Penthouse of Susan Swartz! What pretty hues and can’t beat her view!
Teal and yellow also figure in these Liberty Edition Vans! They would be perfect with shorts and jeans and I cannot resist a floral, especially a Liberty one. Being a California girl, I’ll always love Vans.
Then yesterday, I got an email that these Caspian Ceramics got marked down at Pottery Barn! I want to add one to the colors here at home. I bought a similar one there last year in a cream color and it looks great in the kitchen too with flowers. More teal!
Lastly I love this J. Crew shirttail blouse, a shell almost, I bought in Sherwood green. This deep teal hue looks pretty with so much and I think this color flatters many people. It’s nice for summer and a layering piece right now with a light sweater like I have here. Yes I still wear them over the shoulder on occasion too…
Why I ♥ Trina Turk
It flatters, and my friend and blogger Jennifer of A Well Styled Life looked great in it too…
I love that most of the dresses are lined which makes them feel and look great.

A sleeveless shift here from Trina Turk is paired with flesh tone pumps. Some bright thick bracelets would look great with this.

I’m loving this J Crew dress which is currently on sale and also comes in a coral. You can glam this up for evening with silver accessories or make it more day wedding appropriate with strappy sandals, a bright clutch and fun earrings.

Loving the blue this year as well.
Maxis dresses can be cute, but for a formal wedding, you’ll need to add heels and a wrap along with dressier hair if you plan on wearing one. The fabric shouldn’t be t-shirt material if you are wearing it to a formal event. Most maxis are beach and cover-up attire so keep that in mind and I don’t think I need to say here that flip-flops are not an option-unless it’s a beach wedding..Then anything goes!

Sweaters and Shorts

I’m not a huge Taylor Swift fan, but she looks very cute with these flats, little bag and sweater.
This Chanel sweater jacket looks great paired with relaxed shorts and perfect for a night out on Gwyneth Paltrow.
