Pop of Radiant Orchid

My everyday look is generally pretty casual with fun accents and accessories. That's why I absolutely love Rebecca Minkoff's handbags. She never fails to create a must-have bag in the hottest colors. And most recently, I've been eyeing her MAB tote. So when I spotted it in this gorgeous shade of purple, I just knew I had to have it. It's perfect considering Pantone's color of the year is radiant orchid. And when you have a fabulous bag like this to tote around you really don't need much else to make a statement. 

Let me also say this bag holds everything! With a toddler and preschooler, I carry everything from sippy cups to extra clothes, so I love that it can double as a diaper bag without looking like one.

Overalls

So I finally found them, the overalls that fit just right. I did quite a search for these. My requirements were that they tapered at the end but still had a relaxed boyfriend fit without being too baggy. If you're like me then you know that this is a hard combination to find. I've never bought an actual pair of boyfriend jeans because they are always too baggy. I just buy regular skinny jeans in the next size up to achieve the look. I've found that many actual "boyfriend" jeans literally can be put on and taken off without unbuttoning or unzipping. And clearly that's not going to work.

But going back to these overalls, I'm very satisfied with the fit and wash. And the price was very reasonable. So if you are considering a pair you must check out Express for these overalls. Plus they always have great discount offers. I hardly shop at Express but I am obsessed with these.  I wore them with flats while taking the girls to dance class and then switched them up for some neon heels later in the day.

Birthday Suit

I had wanted to share this look sooner, but this past week has been one extremely long drawn out week. So I'm excited to finally get to share the details of what I wore for my birthday dinner.

After 4 years of laying low on my birthday, I thought it was time to step it up and get fabulous for my 29th. I've spent the past 4 birthday's either preggers, about to pop, or taking care of an infant. So it was time to do something fun and what's more fun then a girls night in Hollywood! We had reservations for SUR restaurant. And if you don't already know, SUR is a trendy restaurant and lounge in West Hollywood and the focal point of the Bravo hit show, Vanderpump Rules. So clearly, I had to go all out for my night out and nothing screams fabulous better then a little Marchesa!
Normally, I'm all about piling on the accessories, but tonight, I wanted the dress to sparkle all on its own. And I'm not ashamed to admit this is a kids dress. I hate being on the verge of petite and regular sizing. At 5'4 I'm usually somewhere in between so depending on brand I can go either way. I will always say the best part of being on the petite side is being able to snag a few goodies in kids department.

Tickled Pink

What's a more perfect outfit to wear on your birthday then a pouffy pink skirt!?  I'm celebrating 29 fabulous years today and there's nothing better than feeling like a princess. 

This magenta skirt from H&M is just perfection! I'm obsessed with midi length skirts, especially paired with a crop top. Personally, I prefer a shrunken top versus the crop top, it covers just a bit more skin than a crop top and is much more accessible for everyday wear.
