Laundry Time
Trina Turk Dress, Vintage Brooch (in hair) and Bracelets, Essie ‘Wicked’ Nail Polish, Chinese Laundry Bounty
I bought this Trina Turk striped number over year ago, but it wasn’t until the lovely Martha sent over these Chinese Laundry Bounty heels that I brought it out of my closet. I had first seen these shoes in last month’s Lucky, but I had no idea how comfortable they would actually be considering they’re a towering 5″ high.
My parents arrive in L.A. today and I can’t wait for long walks, early breakfasts and lots of chats on my couch. Have a fabulous weekend!

G.R.E.A.T. !!!!!
Gorgeous! I have a gold bangle just like that- it was passed down to me from my grandma & it is my most cherished object….love the dress & shoes. Have a wonderful weekend!
I like that vintage brooch a lot, good find.
oooh! I have been so into vintage brooches lately, etsy has a bevy of them of course! The outfit is fab, of course! Have a great weekend!
Cute shoes and feet!
Your hair is SO CUTE. It’s always cute, but today, especially so. Maybe it has something to do with the new shoes?
Adorable dress! I got my hair cut & i l-o-v-e it, thank you for the inspiration!!
i looooove those shoes!
+ your legs are hot hot.
enjoy your weekend with the fam.
you always look so great! those shoes ARE adorable, and it is hard to believe that they are comfortable…but how wonderful that they are!
have a very lovely weekend with your parents. visits with family are oh-so-very-nice.
If only I had longer legs and could pull off shoes with ankle straps! Love your style, but it often seems that my height interferes with so much of what I’d love to wear.
p.s. Where do you usually snag your vintage pieces? Flea markets, estate sales, hand-me-downs? And how do you know how much something is worth?
Have a fun weekend with your parents!
Stunning! Have a wonderful time with your family.
amazing shoes…absolutely amazing.
oh god those shoes— ha i want i want!
btw- what nail polish are you wearing in these pics? i’m looking for some darker nail polish to wear against the neons/neutral combos this spring. thanks!
I can’t believe you waited over a year to wear that fantastic dress! I would wear it every weekend.
Those are completely awesome. LOVE them! Have a great time with your parents:)
love the brooche in your hair !

I’ve been drooling over those shoes for ages … SO glad to hear they’re actually comfy. Have a great time with the ‘rents, beautiful!
love the whole ensemble - looks just perfectly put together — you know that “thrown on and comfy” look?
Great outfit! I love it all. That chain vintage bracelet especially! xo Cari http://isnotfashion.blogspot.com/
You are too cute. I love the brooch in your hair!

Smashingly hott shoes! They make your legs look miles long! AND don’t you just love it when high heels are comfy?! cute dress too and its STRIPED!
Oh I LOVE LOVE LOVE that hair thingy you have on. Gorgeous!
Those shoes are great! I can’t believe they’re Chinese Laundry! Nice!
The dress is amazing too.
I generally think those Gladiator shoes are hideous, but you manage to find a way to make them look awesome.
I am always curious to know how do you manage to rotate everything in your closet (keeping organized and all) and specially what do you do with the pieces you no longer use, do you donate or resell them? What are your tips for getting rid of the stuff we grow attached to?
You look pretty as usual. Love the turquoise and brown combo, and those shoes are fab! Enjoy the weekend with your ‘rents!

OBSESSED with the shoes. to. die. for.
OMG I love your hair and the bracelets!! Have fun with your parents.
Such a cute photo! I love those shoes. They are comfortable you say? I’m always afraid to wear platforms since I’m 5′9″. But they are so lovely. And love the barrette/hair tie! Gorgeous!
You look so pretty in the close up! Love the shoes!
The vintage brooch is the perfect touch!
brooch in hair - what a great idea. luxe.

TOTALLY in love with those shoes. Too bad I’d kill myself in them.
Love the second photo x
I love your hair! u look so great! the shoes are beautiful!
Your pictures look like they could be magazine spreads. This was an absolute treat to read because fashion seems to be a part of every aspect of your life; not just what you wear, and I think that is an important part that gets lost on many. I’ll definitely be back.
I love your shoes, they fit you very well!
