What I Wore: Blue Jean Baby...

I may not be a seamstress or an L.A. lady but today I'm feeling the blue jean vibe.
Outfit Details:
My favorite limited edition French Blue Raybans, Seven jean shorts, Estèe Lauder lipgloss in Flashdance for a pop of pink, and some dangly pearl earrings by Honora.
Simple and easy but with chic flair, perfect for warm Florida days and nights.
Kisses,

Yes, Please: Fall

Autumn is nearly upon us and, although I'm a Florida girl once again, I find myself dreaming of sweater weather. But it's still in the high 80's and low 90's here, yup, I'm pretty lucky despite missing the Fall chill...

So this year my Fall wish list and inspiration is less coat and more blazer/ jacket.

I'm craving leather, black, black, and more black with a touch of camel, and lots of fun boots and accessories. I'm also totally ready to hop back on the oxblood trend train too! In fact, I may have never stopped loving it... It's such a vampy and moody hue. Every time September rolls around I'm ready for a deeper shade lipstick and mani change!

Of course, everything here is designer from Isabel Marant to Givenchy. I.e., I'm not getting any of it anytime soon ever... But a girl can dream and you certainly can't fault the inspiration level.

Looking forward to seeing how I do in regular person prices. :)

Kisses,

K

Under the Weather

Feeling not so great today. I'm fact I'm feeling as icky as the stormy weather here...


At least Florida storms are pretty...


Today's outfit details: In an effort to brighten my day with a little cheer I wore my comfiest shorts that have a happy neon print, spin pins for an easy out of the way updo, and for an extra pick me up pink pearl earrings and my fave perfume. 


Also, maybe it's just the head pain talking  but how cool does this mercury glass votive holder look through my water glass? Gots to keep hydrated whilst sick you know? Or else you start seeing things... Ooh, it looks like shiny silver scales.. 

Kisses,

K

My Brother's Wedding

My youngest brother got married this summer on June 15th!
His bride is the sweetest thing ever and I'm so excited and happy to have her as a sister now!
The wedding was a gorgeous affair at Church Street Station in Orlando, a beautiful historic Victorian building full of gilding and stained glass. (I'll post more on the location another time.)
The wedding was touching, lovely, and a blast! Just what a wedding should be.
Here's a little peek below:
The dress. So pretty. (Also note the rich wood and gilded wall coverings.)
The bridal party was large but close and I was honored to be a part of it. I'm second on the left from the bride, one of only two tall girls, the rest were adorable shorties. Such a fun group of girls too!
Obligatory silly sibling shot (I've got one of the groom's legs and am holding my bouquet up in the air). "Quick! Everyone pick up the (6'4") groom!" Yeah, that was my goofy idea... He's the baby after all, no seriously, he's the youngest. :) His nickname from me is, ironically enough, small child. From when he actually was.

The lovely flowers that my Aunt put together. The bride wanted pink, pink, and more pink with French flair.

Photo booth with the sisters! The bride and groom picked out an Effiel Tower they liked and put it in front of a black background. And the props? They're was a box full of fun. Not to toot my own horn but I made all the props myself... Toot. Toot.

Perhaps I'll post more later? For now though I think this is a lovely little bit of loveliness.

Kisses,

K

Oh Happy Day; Birthday

Today is my eldest sister's birthday today!

She is wonderful big sister and a vivacious, caring, and all around lovely person inside and out!

She volunteers at the oncology ward at her local children's hospital (among other places), just graduated nursing school, and is also a successful promotional model.

She's the type of girl who was president of her sorority and loves a bit of sparkle but is super intelligent and kind hearted. In short, I'm lucky to have her as my sister! (She just got engaged to a great guy this year too and will be getting married in Hawaii in January!) She sounds pretty fantastic doesn't she?

So, please join me in wishing her the Happiest of Birthdays!

 

Thanks for being awesome and hope you have the best of birthdays dear sister!

Kisses,

K(J)
