Hello from Hawaii! I'm here with one of my best friends for a week of fun in the sun! I plan on swimming, eating pineapple, and then swimming some more!
Try not to be too jealous...

In Love
Tory Burch has done it again, she has made another pair of shoes that make me swoon.
I love the quilting, the cap-toe, and the versatility of the shoe. It would look perfect dressed up with tights and a skirt, or down with jeans.

Spencer Hastings
Pretty Little Liars is one of my favorite TV shows, which I have been watching since it first started 3 summers ago. Since the beginning I have loved the character Spencer Hastings. She is the quick, driven, and impeccably dressed, the perfect example of the all-American girl. Every episode I can't wait to see what she will be wearing! Here are a few of my favorite outfits of Spencer's:
I love her all-American style and wish I could raid her closet! Don'f forget to watch Pretty Little Liars tonight at 8:00pm on ABC Family!

The Classic Trench Coat
One of my favorite pieces of clothing is the classic trench coat. It looks so timeless and effortless whether it is thrown on over a dress for work, or jeans and a T-shirt for weekend errands. Here are some of my favorite examples of the classic trench:
Do these pictures make you as excited for fall as I am?

Weekend
Happy Friday! This weekend I am going to Hocking Hills with some of my friends. Anyone who knows me, knows that unless I can swim the whole time I am not particularly outdoorsy. Which means this should be interesting, wish me luck!
Do you have any big weekend plans?

3 Looks
I am currently smitten with these 3 looks:
Seersucker and a crisp oxford are always a yes in the summertime, but I love this version that is menswear inspired with some very feminine touches, like heels.
Loose waves tied back with two connecting braids. This is a great option to do with summer waves.
Layering necklaces: I do this all the time, but I usually layer one strand of pearls with a delicate gold necklace- I love this look of layering more substantial jewelry.
What looks are you currently coveting?

In Love
I know it's not even August (and August and September tend to be the hottest months in Columbus...), but I want this jacket so badly. It reminds me of an updated hunting jacket, perfect for fall!
I want this exact one, I love the golden olive color, not to mention it would go with navy or black. Perfect to throw on with jeans and an oxford on the weekend, or over a dress for an unexpected mix!

Cocktails
Yesterdays post about bar carts got me thinking about cocktails. I seem to always drink vodka (or gin) and sodas with a lime wedge. Although this drink is classic and refreshing, sometimes I want something different. Here are three cocktails I love and need to get in the habit of ordering more:
A mix of cranberry and grapefruit juices with vodka and a lime wedge
Cranberry and orange juice mixed with vodka and garnished with an orange wedge
Vodka (but you can use gin) mixed with fresh lime juice and lime wedges

What is your go-to cocktail?

Bar Carts
I love the look of a well stocked bar cart. It instantly transforms a room, not to mention makes me feel like I am in an episode of Mad Men. Depending on the styling of the bar cart, it can look bright and cherry or dark and vintage. Here are some of my favorites:

Interiors for a Rainy Day
I have been finding myself pinning interiors that are a little darker and cozier. Maybe it's all the rain we have been having in Columbus lately, but a cozy room to curl up and read in sounds just about perfect right now. Here are a few I have been getting inspiration from:
Dark wood bookcases stocked with books with a velvet couch to curl up on
Wood paneling up into the ceiling with deep accents
Emerald green curtains and walls with gold accessories
Not as dark- but still a super cozy vibe
What rooms have been filling your Pinterest recently?

In Love
As soon as I saw this elephant bracelet I was smitten:
Too cute and would be perfect mixed with a pearl bracelet
...And there's earrings!

Hair and Makeup Inspiration
I love the look of simple and classic hair and makeup. Messy pony, mascara, and some red lip stain is the recipe for the perfect unfussy look. Here are a few of those looks I have been interpreting into my own makeup and hair routine:
A messy pony held by a bow (25 year olds can wear bows in the hair, right?!)
A messy high pony and simple clean makeup
Artfully tossed hair
A messy bun + liquid eye liner
Shiny messy waves with red lips
What is your recent makeup and hair routine?

Tan Bags
It seems like as soon as the 4th of July is over, the stores start bringing out fall merchandise. Hard to believe but true. I love fall and all the clothes that come with it, so I am fine seeing all the deeper colors and long sleeves in the stores. I am especially liking all the deep tan leather bags I have been seeing. Here are three I love that will cover every occasion:
Tote- perfect for your laptop, picking up a few things from the store, or carrying onto a plane.
Satchel- a great everyday purse- big enough to fit all your essentials in a timeless style.
Clutch- a great evening purse, or to fill with just the bare essentials and put in the tote or satchel.
What are your go-to bags?

Happy Friday
I hope everyone had a great 4th! I can't wait to continue the long weekend with a visit from friends and spending lots of time by the pool.
Have a great weekend!
