Cupcakes and Cashmere

Coffee in the Canyon

June 6th, 2012



J.Crew Hat, Cosabella Bra, T by Alexander Wang Tank, Satine Skirt, Vintage Clutch, Nixon Watch, Prada Heels, Essie “Lovie Dovie” Nail Polish

I bought this skirt on major markdown at Satine a few weeks back with the intention of waiting for the right dressy occasion to slip it on. My patience started to wane though, so I decided to wear it during the day mixed with some unfussy basics (like a Panama hat and a drapey tank top). There’s something refreshing about the juxtaposition of fancy-meets-casual, even if I did get a few stares while grabbing my coffee.

    Emily! You look gorgeous and that is, positively, the reason for any stares:-) There is nothing more fashionable than a girl who is confident in what inspires her. Yes, you rocked it!

    Why not post just a candid wedding shot? Everything on this blog is so, so so perfected…its okay to be casual and just post something the teensiest bit less than perfect!

    My 4 year old niece just saw me looking at this post and said, “Ohhhhhh She looks fancy doesn’t she?! I like her shoes. And I like her face. And I like those flowers too.”
    The 4 year old and I both love your style. :)
