CAMEL & CREAM

Good morning and happy Friday, Everyone! How was your week? 

I just wanted to say a quick hello and share a few images of an outfit I wore to dinner with Emil on Thursday. Though, I am definitely still having a love affair with black, lately, I find that I am slowly returning to wearing color again. Granted, I am still very far away from pulling out my bright pink coats and turquoise pumps, and the color palette I tend to be attracted to right now is much calmer and softer, nonetheless, color is definitely making it's way back into my outfits. 

Today's look is all about camels, caramels and creams. I think I mentioned before, something about this particular color combination makes me feel warm and cozy and since the weather in LA has been  cold and rainy for the past week or so, I've been seeking refuge by wearing quite a bit of caramels and creams. I guess you could say it's my new rainy day go-to color palette:) 

What about you guys, is there a particular color combination that helps you chase away rainy day blues?

CHECKMATE

Good morning and happy Tuesday, Everyone! Is everyone else as excited about Thanksgiving as I am? Normally, Emil and I manage to carve out some time to spend with family and friends. But the past few weeks have been kind of hectic, so I am certainly excited to have a proper sit-down Thanksgiving dinner and some well-needed family time. How about you guys, what are your plans for Thanksgiving? 

Originally, I got this suit to wear to a post Thanksgiving party Emil and I have coming up this Friday. But Friday is a long time away and this suit is awfully cute... Basically, I have no self-control:) Since I always loved the combination of black, white and a contrasting color, I decided to pair it with purple Manolo Blahnik pumps. By the way, I can't begin to tell you how impressed I am with them. Being a complete high-heel addict, I always associate new shoes with at least some level of discomfort. But not these. Even after a full day of running around, my feet remain in tact and completely blister free, something of a miracle in my universe:)! I suppose, this means I will have to go back to Nordstrom for that cute polka dot pair I've been eyeing for some time now. Although, the soft patent pink pair is just as gorgeous... Decisions, decisions... Nordstrom really does have an amazing selection of Manolo Blahnik heels:)
