Living With Great Style

garden party . . .

With weather slowly warming there comes a fresh spring air that instantly makes me crave fresh blooms – both in and outside the house. When I came across this botanical garden photo shoot, it made me want to throw a garden soiree. Now if only I had a backyard . . . maybe a deluxe picnic in the Presidio with girlfriends is in order!

striking sun light

With the sun shining bright and the air oh-so warm, it’s time to break out long dresses, bright pops of color and of course, show off your legs. With temperatures raising to above 80 degrees in San Francisco it’s definitely the perfect opportunity to do so. What’s not to love about warm sunshine?

spring staple

Finding a sample for spring that transitions into summer is hard to find. I’ve been searching far and wide for a go-to outfit but couldn’t find anything until this week. This casual but chic ensemble was exactly what I was looking to find. The heels and leather jacket dress up the look, but the rolled up chinos and gray tee make it a little more casual for the months ahead. It must have been fate that I came across this because I just bought a pair of chinos from JCrew this weekend with a girlfriend – I left hoping to find inspiration for styling the pants, and voila, look what I came across.


I’m hoping these oxfords have a home in my closet soon! Have you found your staple look for this season?

a pop of jcrew . . .

This past weekend I had the pleasure of popping into the JCrew in Corta Madera – my favorite location in the Bay Area (Carmel’s is out of this world too!). As I walked into the store I finally felt inspired to transition my wardrobe from winter to spring. It’s time to bring out the cotton and color and store the wool. We all know that I’m a stripe-aholic – beware my fellowstripe lovers, the store is packed full of striped goodness along with pops of color that had my creative outfit juices flowing (Alicia and Taylor would have been so proud). In the end I walked away with loads of inspiration about what to do with clothes I already own. I also walked away with a pair of slouchy khaki pants to roll up.


I’m ready to bust out some pops of color in the next few days – especially since the sun is shining bright! Where are all of you finding spring outfit inspiration?

a pop of color: pink + floral

I’ve been slowly cleaning out my closet putting heavy wool coats away and bringing out my linen tunics and seersucker jackets (although with this chilly weather I might have to halt the process). I’ve been assessing what needs to be added to my wardrobe and I think a pop of pink and a touch of floral will be the perfect addition to my neutral wardrobe. Plus, the fact that there are so many shades of pink and blush make it even more fun to work into my everyday ensembles. Are there any colors calling your name this Spring?
