I wore this casual look for brunch last Saturday. Fall in California is a beautiful thing because I can pretty much wear a cardigan over my summer clothes and call it an outfit. Its so refreshingly easy.

vested interest
This is what I wore to class today. It got a little chiller the past two days so I had to give silk dresses a rest – albeit a very short one. I have a contracts mid-term coming up in a week so my posts will likely be a little short on words but I’ll do something special on FashionistaTalk after it’s over. Maybe an extra giveaway? We’ll see…
falling into fall
Last weekend we drove to Santa Cruz for a little outing. I am slowly coming to terms with the inevitable season change and its implications (not that I ever had a choice in the matter), and this look is sort of a testament to that. The brown tones, the heavier shoes, long…everything. Mind you the fabrics are still super light so it’s more like I’m easing into fall.
special treats
I kept hearing over orientation that in the process of studying (which takes up most of day) we will need to take breaks and relax our minds by doing something enjoyable; something to look forward to as a reward for a a completed task. As you could have probably guessed, working on the blog will be my reward. I finished my contracts readings for today and now I can share this next look with you with a clear conscience. I went from the Uniform Commercial Code on to these playful chiffon frills – how is that for a distraction.
in transition
I’m not sure if this is just my way of diversifying my wardrobe or if it’s an actual reaction to what is happening in the ever-changing world of fashion, but lately I’ve been gravitating towards colour skinny jeans more then ever (not a difficult claim to make considering that they seemed to have appeared on the radar around this season). There is something so fresh about this fit in vibrant colours that it almost redefines the perception of skinny jeans all together from tired and played out to trend worthy.
