I love a look that can easily go from day to night. One easy way of accomplishing this is by putting together an ensemble that looks equally fabulous in flats or heels. My hubby and I worked from home Monday, so I needed an outfit that was appropriate for a causal lunch date, as well as a night out at the symphony. Rather than making an outfit change after dinner, I pieced together a look that would match with my Hunter rain boots and my Stuart Weitzman over the knee boots.

Chomping at the bit to wear my new v-neck sweater from Current Clothing, I paired it with a maroon mini dress…a chunky sweater and jeans never disappoints, but after a serious case of the Mondays, I was in the mood for something different. I added dimension by incorporating a high neck dress underneath the low cut sweater. I adorned myself with a matching maroon clutch, black tassel earrings, a bubble umbrella, and a top knot – muggy weather and flat iron curls do not like each other. For lunch at Roam, I rocked my fringe Hunter boots, and when it was time to head to the symphony, I slipped into black over the knee boots.

Just like that I stepped up my wet weather game without sacrificing style! Text Nancy (415)980-4772 of Current Clothing to order this sweater ($58) and dress ($68), or shop similar boots here and this bubble umbrella here.

I do not know about you, but my bureau is perpetually covered in Bits and Baubles. From shooting blog pics, Junior League meetings, to dinner with friends and family, the day’s bling always ends up on my bureau before the jewelry armoire where it belongs. I sure could use this tote to tidily store the miscellaneous items that clutter my cabinet.

Who wants to hit the streets when it is drizzling on and off?! I know I don’t! Well, when it’s out of your hands, and the weather changes on a dime, at the very least dress smartly! Although foul weather gear can be pricey, think of it as an investment. Once you have it, it’ll last you a few years.   Begin with a pair of chic rain boots. In the ensemble below, I’m rocking my fringe Hunter boots. Out of the entire collection, I chose these because they don’t scream rain boots – they can pass for leather. Plus, the fringe detail is a mixture of black and blue making them suitable for black or blue pants. This time, I paired my kicks with black “wet leggings” and a long khaki cardigan – stormy weather isn’t an excuse to sacrifice style!     Secondly, when the sky is threatening, I always wear a scarf. It can double as a hood or a shawl. But if you’re really worried about your luscious locks, carry a hat […]

Secondly, when the sky is threatening, I always wear a scarf. It can double as a hood or a shawl. But if you’re really worried about your luscious locks, carry a hat and prevent the frizz.

 

Finally, get yourself a stylish umbrella and tote it around as a fashion accessory. I’m obsessed with this “Moustache Bubble Umbrella.” Available in a variety of fun shades, it’ll instantly add color to an otherwise gray day.
