Queen of Hearts


What I'm wearing:
*BCBG Cashmere Sweater in Grey (similar here)
*H&M Purple Heart Print Shorts (similar here)
*Gap Opaque Tights in Black
*Deena & Ozzy Peep Toe Mesh Heel from UO
*Forever 21 Grand Chain Necklace
*Michael Kors Oversized Black Watch

These heart shorts were a total impulse buy. I mean, who goes out to buy a pair of purple heart printed shorts? I didn't plan on getting shorts anytime soon, but I have grand plans for this pair. They definitely have a whimsical, cartoon character feel to them, but they caught my eye and I took them home with me.


I love me some statement necklaces. Especially when they cost under $10. I really like that there are different size chains all on this one necklace.


My ubiquitous black watch that I like to pretend goes with everything and anything. It's a bit masculine, but I find that plays nicely against the frilly and feminine pieces that I'm drawn to all of the time.

Why so serious? (Yeah, I don't know either.)

I hope everyone had a happy Halloween weekend! I wasn't feeling too well unfortunately so I didn't make it out too long. (I was dressed up as Samantha from the American Girl series, and my friends were Molly & Kirsten, so that was fun.)

But I did have one of the best meals I've had in awhile this weekend with M at Blue Ribbon Brasserie. We were in a celebratory mood, and everything was absolutely amazing. Luckily for us it is open late night, and we enjoyed our food (especially the bone marrow) and it was overall a really lovely evening. I feel like I am definitely expanding my culinary horizons lately. I never would have considered trying bone marrow a few months ago. Now I've had it twice in this past week, and I'm really glad I tried it.

  9. the cashmere sweater looks so soft and comfy!! i love the shorts with the hearts as it adds a nice playfulness to the outfit. the simple gray sweater and black tights definitely tone it down so it's not overly cutesy. love the outfit!!

  12. Those shorts are completely adorable. You prevented them from being too cartoonish with darker pairings and a sassy top. I like it! And you think right -- your watch DOES go with everything!
