In the Sun

Wearing: PIOL dress c/o, Vince heels, Oliver Peoples sunglasses c/o SeasideLuxe

#TBT is coming a day late.

Earlier this week, I came across some unpublished photos all the way back to Anguilla. How I would kill to be transported there with the snap of my fingers. We all can dream.

Whilst in Anguilla, I sported this custom Piol dress several nights. And just in time for the holidays, Piol is the perfect party pal to avoid an unwanted #twinning this season.

If you are in need of a virtual beach trip, head to my archives for more sun and sand.

Bandana Blue

Wearing: Joe's jeans , J.Crew shirt, Asos shoes, Oliver Peoples sunglasses c/o Seaside Luxe,

Bandana blue, yep. It has been flying around the fashion world this season ever since the color (and print) walked the runway back in September. As we know, my sartorial ways of dressing involves two colors; white and blue and menswear pieces. An over-sized oxford is my superstar of casual dressing- works from beach days to city nights and everything in between. Borrow it from your boyfriend or in my case, buy it a few sizes up . These Joe's Jeans have worn been plenty already, like here with more blue. So predictable, I am. That's what I call a uniform.

Limestone

Wearing: Reformation dress, Joie sandals, Oliver Peoples sunglasses c/o Seaside Luxe

Despite the unpredictable weather, my closet has made a full transition to Spring (or what is left of it). Lately, this Reformation dress has been quite the star standout. As you guys can tell, I am big fan of their pieces and this dress is no different. I'm quite shocked on how much wear its been getting, varying from Easter to a few days ago when paired with a denim shirt. Due to the semi-permanent arctic blast wearing a dress this past weekend without a jacket was dare I say, liberating. Alas, all my regards to Reformation for creating the perfect dress. I'll be back to find a runner up.

Barnes Bay

Wearing: Zara dress, Jack Rogers sandals, Oliver Peoples sunglasses c/o Seaside Luxe

Having it be almost May, I thought it was time to finally wrap up my jaunt down in Anguilla. And what is not better than a Isabel Marant Etoile doppelganger from Zara to close the show... Am I right or am I right? The real deal wouldn't hurt either but this must do for now. 

Before returning back home, a final walk on the quiet Barnes Bay coast was crucial. Sandy toes and salty hair were the ideal companion along with this tunic to bid adieu to my favorite island. 

That I most certainly will be returning to... if you would like to see more check out my Facebook page tomorrow.

Python

Wearing: Zimmermann shorts (no longer avail.), Equipment blouse, Jack Rogers sandals, Chanel bag, Asha by Adm pendant c/o, Oliver Peoples sunglasses c/o Seaside Luxe

I hope you had a lovely weekend and Easter!

A few months ago, I came across a new level of online shopping; The Dreslyn. To say the least, it might be one of the best curated shops ever. Full of my favorite designers (hey Zimmermann, A.P.C.  Heidi Merrick), I am astonished that I had a some self control when surfing through the site. The two items I did purchase were a grey sweatshirt (worn here) and these Zimmermann shorts which came with me to Anguilla. 

I sported silk shorts quite a bit last summer but these have kicked it up a notch. Pairing them with my go-to Equipment blouse that I might wear at least once a week (praise you Equipment) made me feel as if I was wearing sleepwear... for some odd reason, it seems that I am currently into pajama dressing. The python print brought a welcomed change to my usual stripes and solid wardrobe.

Simplicity

Spell dress, Oliver Peoples sunglasses c/o Seaside Luxe

One evening in Anguilla, I slipped on a simple dress and headed down to my favorite area of Barnes Bay. The beautiful beach is filled with hanging ivy and conch shells that scatter the beach. The few moments right before sunset were serenity at its finest.

This Spell dress was my go-to little number during my time in Anguilla. It's a breezy little dress that everyone should have for summer and so on (i.e. musical festival season). This simplistic slip can be worn many different ways for those summer nights that will be soon dawning upon us (it's coming!)
