weekend in sand tropez

After the longest week of my life, a weekend in muted camels, creams and silver sounds pretty close to perfect. Inspired by this shade of nail polish I picked up earlier this week (and new favorite), this look is both easy and so refreshing, and can transition from day to night with the right kind of sandals.

cranberry

I bought this scarf for $7 (hello H&M, I love you) and it's driven me to throw on some cranberry hues: less harsh than black and much more fun than brown. 

Happy 12/12/12!

late afternoon

I wore this to Walter Baker's summer soirée a few weeks back and have found myself throwing it on again and again since. I love anything that can handle a pair of girly pumps and an oversized hair bow, yet can be toughened up with a leather jacket for fall.

borrowed from the flowers

These polishes have been on rotation for the past few weeks mostly because I am smitten with the sunny floral colors. But they are a surprisingly great basic nail color -- with a twist of course. Yellow substituting cream or browns, lilac for blues.
