Warm Friday

fr

 Friday was a really warm day by San Francisco standards and although I wore my cardigan to stay all covered up at work, when I was outside  I let my arms be free.  I found this shell in a dry cleaners bay from ages ago and knew it would be perfect for spring.  I love its color shape and neckline.  I also love how it can be worn with either skirts or, in this case jeans.

Starting to Look like Spring

 It finally started to feel like spring this weekend.  And I took full advantage of it by breaking out my tank tops and wedges.  I actually left the house on Saturday morning in a cardigan but returned home after running some errands to put on a lighter top.  I really like how my two orange tanks layers over each other.  The warm weather was such a treat!

 Today I cast off my tights and embraced spring by going bare legged.  It felt so nice not to  have to worry about tights today.  I decided to embellish my basic blue Boden dress with a borrowed scarf from my mother.  I didn't want to go overboard as I love the shape of this dress and how flattering it is.  I finished off my outfit with my basic brown BR pumps.  It was so nice not to have to worry about layering for warmth today!

Brights and Bells

 Although it looks like spring in the Bay Area, it is still quite chilly.  I decided to filch my mother's bright pink cardigan (its the same cardigan as my oatmeal one, only she doesn't sleep in hers) for a pop of color over a dark dress.  Because its still cold, I am also still tights-bound, so I rocked my mustard colored tights because they I love how they look with my brown wedges!

 Hooray for casual Friday.  Short story: When I was in Junior High I was obsessed with bell bottoms.  My mother took me all over looking for them.  And then they came into style in a big way and it was nice and easy but way less exciting since I was no longer unique in my wearing of them.  These days I have a few friends who rave about Paige Denim, so when I saw this pair at Maribel I decided to give them a shot since they were only $45.  Sadly they were super long and it took me a WHILE to get them hemmed.  But finally they are hemmed and my days of loving my bell bottoms are back!

These are the bow shoe clips that I was given last year for my birthday.
