This lookbook was taken in August which you’ll be seeing a bunch from August/early September since I haven’t had a chance to post them yet. Gotta love the last days of summer!

What I’m Wearing
Vest: Madewell
Tank: C&C California
Skirt: Wilifred (from Aritizia)
Shoes: Miu Miu
Nail polish: OPI Shorts Story and China Glaze Heli-Yum

I got this vest at Madewell when I was visiting NYC and it was before Seattle got their very own Madewell store which I absolutely adoooore. I’ve already bought way too much stuff from there but this vest is one of the best buys as it was on super sale!

It’s a perfect topper for a little bodycon outfit like what I’m wearing. Covers up all the parts that we’re a bit self conscious about unless you have a body like Marisa Miller for which I envy you 🙂

Trying to get hubs to take different angles for the lookbook shots but then he just ends up making me laugh!

Shop the Lookbook:

Testimony Los Angeles Ruffle Front Knit Vest – on sale, 50% off!

This Gabriella Rocha vest is adorable and on sale for $31! But I lurve this Rebecca Taylor ruffle vest and it is on sale… hmmm I think I need to add it to my cart now.

Forever21 Metallic Bandage Skirt
Metallic? Love it!

Love this print on this LOFT skirt too.

Or you could forget about the separates and just get this dress. It’s exactly what I’m wearing!

Free People Women’s Super Tank Mini Dress

Women’s Kelsi Dagger pewter leather ‘Sydney’ platform sandals

I didn’t think I’d get much use out of metallic sandals but I have worn them quite a bit this summer. For $50, these sandals by Guess are fab. Or I’d take these Jimmy Choo sandals. Totally hot!

China Glaze Heli-yum and OPI Shorts Story
I have way too much nail polish and can’t manage to wear all of them so I’ve been painting my nails multiple colors lately to solve that problem! I just alternated these two colors for a fun manicure but subtle enough to wear to the office too.

Lookbook: Iced

The last time I wore this blouse I toughened it up a little by pairing it with a black zipper skirt but this time around, I wanted to embrace the girliness and paired it with this cute paperbag waist skirt.

What I’m Wearing:

Top: Yumi Kim

Skirt: BCBG

Shoes: Miu Miu

Blue Topaz bracelet: Gift from Ice.com

I also just realized that the last time I wore this skirt I paired another Yumi Kim top with it. I just adore Yumi Kim and when I was in New York I got to meet with Kim, the very talented designer/owner of the Yumi Kim line. She is the sweetest and I had such a great time chatting over drinks with her. And seriously, the girl is so ambitious, I love it! She’s the type that goes after it and makes it happen. I feel like all too often, I hear a lot of talk about what people want to do but rarely do they go after it. It’s really refreshing to meet someone who knows so well what she wants to do and wants to accomplish and DO it. As a young(ish) entrepreneur myself who has high goals and ambitions for herself it’s so nice to meet someone who’s been through it all and has come out successful but still strives to do the best every day.

A big thank you to Emily from Ice.com for sending over this gorgeous blue topaz bracelet! I adooore it, it’s so sparkly! See my Shop the Lookbook below to find out how to get this bracelet and other pretty jewelry with a special discount! (The diamond tennis bracelet is mine. It’s one of my staples, every girl needs a diamond tennis bracelet!)

And my Barbie shoes complete the outfit! 🙂

Shop the Lookbook:

I got my top last year so it’s no longer available but you can’t go wrong with any of her prints. These are two of my favorites.

Yumi Kim Joey Top

Yumi Kim Lisa Top

I also got the skirt awhile ago but I found this one that’s really similar. Love the look of the paperbag waist and the bow.

BCBGMAXAZRIA Paperbag Skirt

This one is a much better price point ($48) and is a bit shorter which might be better paired with flats.

Urban Outfitters Cooperative Twill Paperbag Skirt

My Miu Miu pumps aren’t available anymore but you can find lots of cute pink pump options.

Lookbook: Alainn Bella

I had lots of you tell me that you were going to try out the vest + dress combo that I styled in my “Vesty” lookbook, did you do it yet? I want to see how you paired it together! I liked it so much that I decided to try it again. I hope you don’t get too bored of this look as this is probably not the last time you’ll see me doing it!

What I’m Wearing:
Dress: Gift from Alainn Bella
Vest: Ben Sherman
Shoes: Miu Miu
Nail Polish: Gift from Eyeko Cosmetics

Megan, the owner of Alainn Bella, sent along this adorable dress from her online shop. Isn’t is so cute? I love the stripes and the bubble hem. The dress comes with the belt and looks great as is but I belted over the vest for a bit of a different look.

Eyeko sent over some of their makeup for me to try out and I loved it all. I had been on the hunt for a perfect polish for the summer and their Coral polish was exactly what I needed. You gotta check out their packaging too. Such cute stuff!

On a different note: Do I have any readers from Vancouver, B.C.? I’m planning a trip to take my parents up there for my dad’s birthday and I need some reccommendations of things to do while we are there. I would like to go to a park or somewhere with nice scenery to take pictures or just somewhere fun! I would love any suggestions! Please leave a comment or send me an email.

And just for fun…
