Anchoring Down the Mix & Match

Blouse: UK Style by French Connection, Sears; Anchor Pants: Forever21; Oxford Flats: Urban Outfitters; Necklace: Stella & Dot; Stone Bracelet: Vintage, Circa 1960s;  Sunnies: H&M; Bag: Vintage Coach

As I said in the last post, I'm obsessed with mixing prints. 

Sometimes it is fun to be a bit bold with it: 

color blocking or pairing obvious pattern combinations can be a bit bland at times. 

These anchor pants are such a great fit and the print is too cute. 

The color of the pant looks great against the green hues in the blouse. 

Also, I am absolutely in love with this vintage bracelet, which belonged to my great aunt. 

Each stone has beautiful details, which have been carved into the stone. 

When I walked out of the house, I thought this might have been too much, 

but after looking at these pictures, this might be one of my favorite looks yet.

Pretty Dress

Magenta Cardigan: Forever21; Dress: Sway; Studded Flats: Steve Madden; Necklace: Forever21

I love this dress from Sway, because of its pretty flow and delicate layered look. 

It's so comfortable and can be worn in a variety of ways. 

I snagged these Steve Madden flats for only $40! 

Who isn't obsessed with studs right now?

I was quite pleased with that purchase.

Multiple Versions: Dotted Button Up

I think I am absolutely in love with this silk dotted blouse. 

Something about its abstracted dots, making them look like olives in my opinion, 

makes this shirt unique from every other dotted shirt out there. 

I literally have been wearing it non stop...

yesterday I decided to pair it with my new shorts from Urban. 

The combination of geometric shapes was so much fun!

Unfortunately, once I got to the city, my look had to become a bit more weather appropriate.

AKA throw on the layers and pull on the leggings. 

It gets so damn breezy in the bay. 

But hey, I can't complain about the weather...

at least the sun was out rather than the fog :P
