All Grey, All Day

Hey guys! I love getting really dressed up, it is seriously one of my favorite things to do. Intricate gowns, sequins, massive hats… these are just a few things I live for. But let’s be honest, you aren’t going to be wearing a gown every day.  For those in-between days I always look for comfort without sacrificing style. I love a good grey v-neck any day of the week. Chances are you’ll catch me running errands or grabbing lunch in an outfit similar to this. I’ve owned more v-neck’s than I can count and I always look for these qualities before purchasing:

Black and Grey in DTLA

This week I will be doing a round up of my outfits from my recent trip to Los Angeles. I wore this look with black flats on the flight, then swapped them out for these insane heels for a night out in DTLA. I love this look for traveling because it is incredibly comfortable, and effortlessly chic. It is perfect when you’re having to run from place to place, which was my life during this quick trip. I met up with Ryan Chua pretty much strait from the airport to snap a few pictures and to grab a quick dinner at Urth Caffé (try the Caravan Kale Salad and a Japanese Tea Latté). Ryan is a well-known street style photographer, odds are you’ve seen some of his pictures from NYFW, and we used to work together all the time when he lived in SF. However, he recently moved to L.A. and is absolutely killing it, so it was fun to get together and catch up!

Express Yourself with these Must-Haves

Happy Wednesday, guys! I posted a sneak peek of this look on Instagram a couple weeks ago and got so many questions about outfit details. First off, this skirt from Express is a must-have in every girls wardrobe. It is super light weight and is a bonded mesh material that holds the perfect flare. I picture it with so many different looks! You could pair is with a white top for wedding festivities, a red top for Christmas, a pink turtleneck sweater for for a fancy brunch.. it is one of those items that you can keep coming back to. Plus it cinches at the perfect spot on your waist, making it ultra flattering for your figure.;)

I wear a crop top any chance I get! I’ve worn this top in a million posts, and you’ll probably see it pop up a million more times. It’s one of my go-to basics that I literally couldn’t live without.

These black velvet, strappy heels are from Lola Shoetique. They are seriously one of the comfiest heels I own because of the thick heel. I can wear them all.day.long. and not even feel it! I wear them with skinny jeans, dresses, shorts, everything!

Lace Belle Sleeves

Good morning guys! I hope you had a great Monday and a good start to the week. I had a million things to catch up on after being out of town for my best friends wedding, and am still trying to catch back up today. I had such an incredible time celebrating their marriage and it couldn’t have been any more perfect! I don’t think there was ever a time I wasn’t laughing with a huge smily on my face!  Nothing makes me happier than being whole-heartedly excited for my best friends future.

I have become a professional wedding guest as of lately, and my girls always come to me to borrow my white clothing items for different wedding events. Engagement Party, Bridal Shower, Dress Shopping, Rehearsal Dinner… the bride needs to have a bunch of striking white outfits on deck. I am OBSESSED with this romper from Modern Vintage Boutique. I think white rompers take up half my closet, and TBH I’m not even embarrassed by that. They are so comfy, trendy and flattering~ I love the lace detailing on this one and the dramatic bell sleeves. The shorts are also slightly flared which makes it even more flattering than normal! It is on sale for $34 so snatch it before it’s gone!!

Do I even need to say anything? These boots speak for themselves. They could literally make a trash bag look good. The nude shade blends into the leg and gives the illusion that you are a lot taller/thiner… shhh our little secret 😉

I’m wearing my white pearl, gold watch from my favorite watch company MVMT. Use code “StephanieDanielle” for $$ off any watch!

These pictures were taken in Sea Cliff next to my favorite rose-covered house. If you ever find yourself in the area, stop and take a stroll through the neighborhood, you won’t regret it! The big pink house on the cliff that overlooks the Golden Gate Bridge was Robin Williams!

Happy Tuesday, loves! Thanks for following:)

Black & Gold City Hall

Hey guys! I am finally feeling normal today after the Holiday weekend! We spent the 4th at Folsom Lake and had the best time relaxing in the boat all day, it was wonderful:). Yesterday was all about catching up on emails and planning a few really exciting projects that I have coming up. It is always a struggle to get back to the grind after a long weekend. What I have found helps me get back to work is to wake up early, make a coffee, and dedicate 20 minutes to a to-do list for the week. It keeps me in check and motivated so that nothing slips through the cracks while being away from work for a few days!
