I think I partly owe my love of blazers and Marc Jacobs to Emma Watson. When I was getting into fashion I helped to run a website dedicated to finding all the pieces Emma wore for different events and photoshoots, Sassy! I hunted for many of those pieces on eBay for my own collection and did manage to find a few over the years. This particular jacket was one she wore to a Teen Vogue photoshoot in 2005. It wasn't part of the actual shoot, it's from a small behind the scenes photo of her getting ready. Another one you've seen MANY times is a velvet Marc Jacobs blazer, last seen here.

I don't think I ever styled it like she did so that's what I decided to do this past weekend. Blazer? Check. White tee, light jeans and two-tone flats? Check! Easy peasy!

Blazer: Marc Jacobs (eBay), Tee: Everlane, Jeans: FRAME (Shopbop),  Flats: Chanel (eBay)



The inspiration:

Today is supposed to be the first day of Spring. Sadly it's still mighty cold out there! I know we don't go straight from cold to warm weather but I'm missing the almost-Spring weather we had a few weeks ago. We got into the high 60s and yet we're back in the 40s now. Annoying!

Blazer: Evan Picone, Sweater: Madewell,  Jeans: Free People 'Jax' Patchwork, Boots: Vince Camuto 'Davila' (Marshalls)


I've amassed quite the collection of vests over the past couple of years and they all involve fur. This one is the most unique since it's chevron printed AND multicolored! Lydia got it for me for Christmas and it was such a great find! The fact that there are so many colors in it makes it a lot easier to style than you'd think. I think next time I'll wear it with light brown.

Fur Vest: Romeo & Juliet Couture (from Lydia), Turtleneck: Vanessa Bruno (Coco's $10 sale), Jeans: Free People, Boots: Candie's c/o Kohl's, Sunglasses: Ray Ban 'Erika' c/o Ditto, Bag: Emm Kuo 'Calle Bahia' (Roundabout Resale)


Here I go again with weird prints. I think it's funny how every single one of my button down shirts is a print. Apparently I can't wear basic ones. I do have a purple one from an Equipment sample sale but I never wear it because of the fabric (not as breathable as my other Equipment blouse.)  I wore this the day before we had a freak snowstorm. It was warm and springlike and then next thing we know it snows most of the day on Friday.

Top: Oasis c/o, Vest: French Connection (Marshalls), Jeans: Free People, Flats: Chaps (Kohl's)


The Original:
Last Friday I had to go to jury duty. It was also a snowy day and I'm not a huge fan of where the court is so that made it extra annoying. But sometimes it's nice to just sit and read all day. I made some good progress on finishing Return of the King, which I've been reading for far too long, ha ha. I thought it was a good opportunity to wear one of my more professional blazers since I rarely have occasion to wear them anymore.

Sweater: Everlane, Blazer: Brooks Brothers (Roundabout Resale), Jeans: Free People, Boots: Eighteen 68 'Megan' (Gilt), Necklace: Mom's


Yesterday I helped throw a bridal shower for my cousin. We held it at a place on the water so I figured I would go with a watery-print looking dress! It was so cold though so probably not the best idea to only wear it with a sweater. But this is the outfit I had in my head so I stuck with it!! The shower went really well, thankfully some of the other bridesmaids were the vocal ones so I didn't have to yell to the whole group, ha ha.  I also made some pretty delicious french macarons (made to look like oysters) as a favor for the guests, see the picture below!

Weekends are all about comfort. Okay...maybe every day is about comfort, but especially weekends. I wore this a couple weekends ago for an afternoon at my Grandmothers. This leather jacket is still one of my all time favorite steals. A Theyskens' Theory leather jacket I found at Nordstrom Rack for $172, it retailed for $1150. INSANITY!

Leather Jacket: Theyskens' Theory (Nordstrom Rack), Sweatshirt: Phillip Lim x Target, Jeans: Mother (Marshalls), Flats: Diane von Furstenberg (Marshalls)
