Last week in New York was such a blur (you can see my segment from The Today Show here) that I spent the majority of this past weekend lounging around the house. We entertained friends for a barbecue, read outside, and ordered take-out for dinner. And even though I couldn’t be with my dad on Father’s Day, we got dressed up and went out with my father-in-law. It’ll hold me over until I get to see my own dad in a couple of weeks in northern California.

    Those booties are so pretty and I love the detail of the leather tied onto the top of the strap of the bag.

    Where would one wear something like this? Seems overly fussy and dressy for a laid back weekend. Also I don’t think it is entirely flattering. At all.

    Love from South Africa

    Wow! Great job on the Today Show!!! Great edit too!!

    Great looking outfit – style, color, accessories – a very feminine summer outfit until the Halloween, Frankenstein shoes come in. They are heavy, boxy looking and totally destroy the femininity and ruin the line of the legs. The look becomes clunky, stocky and the legs look cut off at the ankles. And, appears to be difficult to stand in them. Take a cue from the Duchess of Cambridge.
