Rock N' Roll Will Save Your Soul.





Nothing better then a perfectly worn in pair a' Chucks! Except maybe a perfectly ripped pair of jeans. Who says you can't wear white after labor day?! I personally believe in wearing white all year round. Why not?! Do it... do it.. This boyfriend blazer is made by Silence & Noise and I also have it black. And I am also debating white. I loove them! They fit just right and once you find that just right blazer you better stock up before it's gone. Seize the moment! Also it's currently on sale!! Sorry if this post sounds a little loopy it's been a long week!!

Purr...






I coveted these shoes for about two months before I finally just gave in and bought them. We had pulled them for a photo shoot and when our client kept them I was so insanely jealous! Then I would see them at the mall and stare at them like a weirdo. I feel comfortable enough to tell you guys these things because if you have a blog you probably love shoes just as much as I do and I bet you do the very same thing! I don't know why I didn't just buy them?! I think maybe I thought they would be tough to match. I'm very careful with my selections! Well now that I finally have them, I like to pair them with simple basics; leather shorts and a comfy white sweater did the trick. Shoes make me so happy its sick. Especially these guys and their pink soles!

Puppy Love.






"Men's shirts, short skirts, oh wha oh oh..." Sorry. Had to do it. The second thing on the agenda; can we please recognize not only is there an adorable puppy in this post but also- a rainbow. A puppy and a rainbow. Don't think I can top it. My bestie and I both have and love this skirt from American Apparel. It really is a nice staple and they've got a varitey of good colors. I've been getting super into menswear latley, but I need to clarify that this is a boy's school uniform shirt from Target! White shirts are so hard to keep looking fresh so by spending less I can replace it more often and not freak out if... or I should say when, I inevitably spill something on it. "And man. I feel like a woman!"

Prance.







I was gonna try to down play it but I can't! I'm pretty excited that my tee shirt line Mint is making it's first appearance on the blog! Along with graphic tees I also have a range of "Mint Essentials"- gotta love a good basic! This tee and the rest of my Mint line will be available to purchase in January! P.S. It's super soft and comfy! Alright, alright, alright...now that I've got that excitement out of the way! These "Prance" Booties by Jeffrey Campbell were my staple all summer and I'm finding ways to mix em' into Fall, because well... I love them. As you may or may not know I have an obsession with army jackets- if you don't have one yet (which I'm sure you probably do) but if you don't- get on it. Such a go to.

Red.






Confession: I think I may be becoming "that weird girl that always wears a red beanie" I'm obsessed! Nothing like a nice red pop of color! It's like an exclamation point for an outfit! And I love exclamation points! (Reference to Seinfeld episode where Elaine's boyfriend... oh just watch it!)

The Jean Geanie.


Finally Fall has arrived in Southern California! There is a cool breeze blowing! People are wearing pants! Jackets! Scarves! I even had my first white hot chocolate of the season! My fave!! A while back I did a post about Fall Fashion where I mentioned leather pants- they scare people. Even my lovely photographer mentioned her hesitation, but I promise you- try them! Report back to me. They are so fun. Rock N' Roll!!

Tuneage Tuesday: Simon & Garfunkel.

In honor of election day I chose one of my favorite songs, "America" by Simon & Garfunkel.  Making the decision to not get too political on here but I hope you all get out there and make an educated vote today!





 Happy Election Day!!
