balancing act


For date nights I try to strike a balance between the casualness of Southern California and my own desire to get dressed up…

Most recently, for dinner and a drink at a favorite neighborhood spot, this meant my go to chambray shirt made a bit more fancy by pairing with a swingy little pleated skirt (last seen here), plus a bright red lip balanced with my natural air dried hair.  And, because it wouldn’t be me without one standout piece – these statement heels.  A balancing act in their own right with the type of geo print seen everywhere this Fall (but often on casual sweaters or leggings) dressed up in shiny satin, a high heel, and sleek pointed toe.  Here they were just enough to pull the whole look together – but I can’t wait to throw these on with another print or more color next time.
