Paris Street Style

Outfit Details:

Dress Stay Fierce Boutique | Booties Lucky Brand

There are few places better to look to for fashion inspiration then Paris. This summer we strolled the streets and gazed at the people walking past and all their unique styles. There is so much creative inspiration in Paris it's hard to leave and not be inspired. On this trip, we brought along a lot of cute summer dresses in hopes that the weather would be warm. Unfortunately, most days it was windy and rainy, but it's Paris so who can complain. Plus it made each minute of warm weather even sweeter. One evening when it was nice out we dressed up went out to dinner. Ivy wore this super adorable dress by Stay Fierce Boutique. This dress went well with the overcast sky and the Parisian architecture. It is also perfect for fall and Ivy has worn it numerous times. 

Stay Fierce Boutique has so many cute dresses, jumpsuits, rompers, and tops to choose from! We ended up ordering more for our fall wardrobe (we will post on these soon). We love their trendy clothes and how affordable they are. All of their clothing is under $35!

Moss Green Dress for Fall

Outfit Details:

Dress Noir Le Tote | Necklace Jessica Simpson (similar here)| Purse Jessica Simpson Le Tote | Sandals Sam & Libby

Here in California, the beginning of fall is still pretty warm. We can still wear dresses without jackets and heeled sandals instead of boots. Although we can't wait for cooler weather, we still enjoy that we can sit outside and have a glass of wine without turning on the outdoor heat lamps. Last weekend had perfect weather for wearing a knit dress and drinking wine at one of our favorite hotel bars at The La Playa Hotel. We sipped on crisp dry sauvignon blanc and watched the sun start to set.

Farewell Summer

Outfit Details:

Dress Octavia Le Tote | Shoes Sam and Libby Target | Necklace Gorjana Le Tote | Purse Sondra Roberts Le Tote

It's starting to cool down here in Carmel Valley. Although "Fall" weather here is still about a month away, we are finally starting to get in the mood. Over the weekend we decided to grab a quick snack at one of our favorite spots in the Village, Corkscrew Cafe. We sipped on bubbly rosé and nibbled on roasted garlic and toasted bread. Ivy wore this lovely plum colored dress as she transitions her wardrobe from bright colors of summer to autumnal gem hues.

Stripes in The Vines

Outfit Details:

Dress CeCe  | Shoes Prabal Gurung for Target (sold out similar here and here) | Bracelet BCBCGENERATION Le Tote | Lipstick Maybelline Superstay 24 in Always Blazing

This past weekend Ivy attended her friend Casey Frazier's new album "American Exotic" release party at Folktale Winery & Vineyard. This was an evening event pouring Folktale wines with a cart set up for all-you-can-eat tacos! Ivy wore this cute black and white striped dress and paired it with cherry red heels and red lips. The dress has small cutouts on the sides giving this classic look a twist.

Ivy paired her outfit with one of her favorite red lipsticks from Maybelline's line, Superstay 24. Superstay 24 are our go-to lipsticks for events, especially ones where we will be eating and drinking a lot. First apply the liquid lipstick color and let it dry for 2 minutes. Then apply the moisturizing balm and you're good to go! It does't come off on wine glasses and you don't have to check the mirror every 5 minutes to reapply. Plus they have so many amazing colors!

The music was great and the weather couldn't have been better. To preview/purchase some of Casey's music click here. American Exotic will be available soon!

Chambray for Summer!

 Chambray fabric was made for summer. Its the perfect fabric to wear when you (like us) love denim but it's too hot outside to wear.  Whether you are looking for something to keep you cool, or need a light extra layer (we love layering chambray button ups with summery dresses), chambray will do the trick. Eve and I decided to go out for a casual Sunday glass of wine at Cowgirl Winery in Carmel Valley last weekend. The weather was nice but there was a bit of a breeze so I picked a long yet thin cardigan to go over my chambray dress. We love layering a long cardigan with a short and sassy dress. ;) This dress is perfect for a casual day look, and perfect as a beach coverup. Eve wore a chambray romper that opens in the back. She paired it with a fun strappy bra. This romper is perfect for a day to night look in the summer when the evenings get a little chilly. Dress it up with strappy heels for summer going out look.

Plum Picking Perfect!

Outfit Details:

Dress Anne Klein | Watch Timex | Ring Macy's (similar) | Lipstick Maybelline | Hair created with Bed Head Wand

Almost every June, Ivy housesits for one of her oldest friends. It's always a treat to stay at their home  because they have a beautiful estate with rose gardens, lemon trees (literally about to break with the weight of the huge lemons) and one big plum tree also about to break from the bountiful crop. This year was perfect timing. Ivy picked several bags of plums and enjoyed plumb crumble with some and made the rest into plum jam. It was a hot day, so Ivy picked out this vintage style dress with polkadots to wear as she walked around in the grass picking sweet plums. What a perfect summer day!

Stripes for Spring

Outfit Details:

Dress Target | Jacket Levi's | Shoes Target | Clutch Street Level on Le Tote 

Ivy has been wanting a striped dress for a while now, and when she found this dress at Target she didn't think twice before grabbing it off the hanger. She loves how soft it is and how its fitted on top but is cut to be flowy from the waist down. The perfect dress for twirling! She paired it with a crisp white denim jacket. Ivy picked this clutch as a fun and functional accessory to the outfit.  We love it so much! The pattern is so cute, plus cactus print is so trendy right now. We cant get enough!
