Sweet Rewards
Splendid Top, Forever 21 Skirt, H&M Tights, Steve Madden Booties, Rebecca Minkoff Purse, Handmade Necklaces, Michael Kors Watch
One of the best things about L.A. is all of the separate neighborhoods that make the city feel a lot smaller than it really is. On Saturday we ventured over to Larchmont Village, one of my favorite areas that’s filled with coffee shops, boutiques and plenty of dogs for me to lurch after. I walked in my shoes for about an hour before my feet started to resemble swollen hooves. Luckily, we passed by a Crumbs right as I started to break into an awkward limp and promptly rewarded myself with a red velvet cupcake.

LOVE your hair

I’m really loving the skirt! And I’m glad you’ve been having more outfit posts (or it seems like that to ME anyways, haha).
The print on the skirt is great. Love the whole black and white look!
i love sunny californian weekends! looks like you always have fun during the weekends
keep the food and outfit posts coming. your food always looks so delish and i do actually take note of the recipes that you alter 
i like how u’ve paired the printed skirt with a bright neon purse! somehow it looks pulled together without being too matchy…and u look very pretty here:)
A white t-shirt and gold accessories = perfection!
This is such a pretty outfit! I love the golf watch and simple white tee. Your hair is such a great colour too

Thanks for the closeup — I love what you did with your makeup! I never have that much control with liquid eyeliner. >.<
we spent 14 seconds in larchmont village when we first moved here–i definitely want to go back and stay a little longer next time! so true about the separate neighborhoods in L.A. making city feel smaller (and more manageable)–seeing familiar faces/neighbors at local stores and around the hood is a good thing.
Love your outfit! The skirt it is faboulous! Kisss.
You have such pretty eyes!
i can’t get enough of that super chic neon mini. the perfect shot of color on another cool ensemble. love!

Love the outfit!
so cute. nothing beats a little weekend ramble to a different neighborhood.
Are you ever not stylish? I love it!
Hope you have a good week! come on over to my blog — i miss seeing you there!
I own this skirt and always get so many compliments on it! I actually just wore a very similar outfit to a fashion charity event last week-boyfriend blazer, this skirt, tights, peep toe booties and a neon orange clutch! great minds think alike
great skirt…definitely like the tucked in look, too.
I really love your nude lipstick. It’s so very very pretty on you.
I just bought that F21 skirt. I love it! It looks great on you.
pretty pretty pretty!

You’re a brave gal to walk around in those shoes for more than 10 minutes ;o) Cute outfit!
Ooooh, I loathe shoe miscalculations! Good thing that cafe came along to rescue you with cupcakes.

LOVE the RM small purse…perfect pop of color! Love this look, too, it’s perfect for spring yet still great when the weather is still chilly. Or in TN’s case…FREEZING!

a red velvet cupcake is the perfect reward for any situation!
your purse’s really nice!
Pretty pictures. I love Larchmont. I used to be there all the time when I worked at Paramount Pictures but it has been a few years!!
How do you look that amazing and eat red velvet cupcakes and chocolate honey combs? Please share your diet secrets.
Do you know the name of that Michael Kors watch you’re wearing? There are a few on his website but they look small. I would love to get the one you have, it’s fab!
I love the yellow purse with that F21 skirt. It looks amazing on you and you look really happy in these photos. xo

what a fun little adventure. it reminds me of my escapades in greenwich village while sporting 6inch valentino’s. except in my situation, i have to trade your sprinkles for magnolia. Xx
love that skirt! i can’t believe it’s forever 21. maybe i need to dig a little deeper…past the tacky sequins and cheap jersey. that’s my mission for this afternoon!
I love your hair! The fact that you walked a whole hour in those shoes is damn impressive. Go you!
love that skirt pattern and your pop of color with that bag

I used to live in LA. I love Larchmont Village. You look fabulous. I want to leave work now and find a similar outfit.
Shut up - it is THAT warm there?? SO jealous! And how do you get your hair highlighted - do you ask for only the top layers?
Cupcakes really do make everything better, don’t they? Even for us ‘beauty is pain’ girly girls!
nice outfit! I like you hair!!!

Love this outfit.. and the close-up pic of your face is very pretty!
Gorgeous outfit! I wore a very similar one last week- all the shapes are so classic and flattering, and I’m a firm believer in throwing tights on under anything.
Love the Rebecca Minkoff bag! Such an unexpected pop of color with your outfit!

Larchmont is so cute, love that area. Such a cute outfit…
I love how you match your floral busy skirt with a plain tee, the belt is amazing! And you have beautiful eyes
I wish I have eyes like that.

wow, you have gorgeous eyes!
I just found your blog today and it pleases very much. will be back!
I was trying to leave a comment in an old entry:
http://cupcakesandcashmere.com/lessons-in-ice-cream/
It seems it won’t work (I can’t do it.. don’t know why), so I’ll be leaving it here:
“:)
And you even took a picture! Now imagine…
a stranger on the street sees you having your ice cream falling to the ground. Then he sees you regretting and imagines you’ll buy another one. BUT BEFORE THAT he sees you taking a picture of the juicy ice on the ground. He might think you’re a funny person.
hehehe”
I am so jealous right now… i wish it would be a bit warmer here, so i could wear my summer outfits ! Anyway, you look amazing !

I’m a daily reader, and have always been hesitant about leaving comments because you get so many! (must be tough to be so popular!!) i must have looked at your site at least 5 times today because i adore that skirt! Forever21 is always such a hit or miss, but this skirt is definitely a hit!
mmm i could really use a cupcake right now.
loving your hair!
you have such pretty coloured eyes!!!:)
love your hair here!

The only cure for a limp…a red velvet cupcake! You look stunning, Emily!!
Gorgeous outfit and hair! Love it!

As sad is it is, I was relieved to hear your feet hurt too! I was beginning to think you might be superhuman
Of course, my feet hurt after an hour in 2 inch heels, but still! You look beautiful, looks like a lovely weekend!
love your purse
Love your style! Just found your blog…it’s my new fav.
You’re so chic!
At the first photo u reminds me Whitney Port!o.o

Hi! My name is Elin
Im from Mexico
16 years old!
& foollower of ur blog (:
The only thing I love more than the purse is the braid. Cool look.
http://www.firednfabulous.blogspot.com/
i LOVE your hair, the fun little braids you do! - keep the SWEET posts coming
Fun! I have you (and your blog) to thank for a fabulous weekend in L.A. with a friend I was able to check out the Barney’s sale, Planet Blue in Malibu, and even brunch at Toast on Saturday. (Also picked up a great Splendid top on Robertson :))
Hey guys!
Emily, your style is impeccable as always. But I was wondering about the small neighborhoods in LA. I was recently there visiting because I am moving out next year and Larchmont was the only place where I really got that feel of a small community with walkability. Everywhere else was just big and overwhelming and I didn’t get the neighborhood sense - what are the other cool neighborhoods that you would recommend going to?
Loving the skirt!
Holy cow that skirt is so freakin’ cute!!
love the outfit, and i love your flash of fluoro yellow
I like your outfit and makeup here, but I have a suggestion! If you filled out your eyebrows it would really complement the aesthetic look of your face.
Emily, I’ve never seen eyes like yours!
As a cousin of mine says “swimming pool in the face”. You really have a hawaiian ocean in the eyes…
As always, pretty!
Brazil love’s your blog!
i love larchmont village! did you go to the sale at lf? you look gorgeous!
xxx
t
you look especially chic in black and white. mind sharing which liquid eyeliner you use? (sorry if you’ve already told us!)
White shirt plus gold…Hmmm I’m taking style notes here
Your eyes are amazing! I never noticed them before. Too busy looking at shoes and treats ;~)
oh my gosh, your outfit is to die for! i LOVE the skirt! LOVE everything about it!
Loving your skirt!! the print is so pretty!
xoxo
LOVE THIS! Great bag.
your makeup is beautiful in these! i love that you found a F21 skirt that looks so much more expensive than it is. So do you live by Victoria Beckham’s latest quote in glamour regarding the willingness to suffer for the confidence that heels can give you? I am so torn whether I do or not…
you always look so lovely and natural and happy in your photos:) you’re so genuine and it shines through in every image…
I love this outfit and I can’t wait for spring to wear something other than leggings and boots to keep warm. sigh…
and btw, your hair looks fab. love.
I love this outfit it seems perfect and effortless! youre beautiful
LOVE the shoes, Em!

I LOVE the skirt/belt combo.
you have sectoral heterochromia like me! (where part of your iris is another color)
i love the skirt! So pretty!
that skirt looks WAY above F21 quality - love it
Emily, can you please post a “How To” for applying black liquid eyeliner? It’s so hard to get it right. Your eyes look gorgeous!
So lovely ! You are beautiful ! the skirt is amazing !
