PLAY PRETEND...

Let's make believe we're packing our bags and jetting off to a tropical locale. Which of these suits makes it into your carry-on?!






The J.Crew scalloped bikini and the bow bottoms are the no-brainer for me. I think I could buy them in multiple colors and then mix and match all imaginary vacation. What's your top pick?

ISA TAPIA SCALLOPED SANDALS

If running around New York in the snow this past week has shown me anything, it's how desperate I am for spring to hurry up and get here. Anyone else totally cool with fast-forwarding through February and half of March? I was already over the snow/slush/ice combo when this goodness popped up in Shopbop's new arrivals and I decided I need to flee the city in search of warmer climes. Behold the scalloped leather loveliness... 




Obsessed doesn't begin to cover it. Designed by Isa Tapia, they kind of remind me of the classic Chloé scalloped ballet flats in summer form. Would you splurge on a pair of either?!

KATE SPADE FALL 2013

It was such a treat to attend Kate Spade's fall presentation on Friday! I find I'm always happiest in a room full of bows, hot pink, and killer shoes ;) And I loved getting to catch up with blogger friends in from out of town. How gorgeous is Julia from Gal Meets Glam? Such a sweetheart. Stay tuned for pictures from other presentations and shows I'm attending this week — so proud of myself for actually lugging my real camera around for once!
