Favorite Looks of the Week

Work has been crazy busy this week, and with Sasha in Austin for the University of Texas at Austin MBA in Houston Program’s (a mouth full?)  “intensive week,” looking at fashion blogs before going to bed has been my calming factor. I honestly could not narrow down the number of “favorite looks” – there were so many. In fact, Jennifer (of The Native Fox) had two – she is a real-life Barbie doll though.

I drove to Austin last night, and we’re going to spend the day at Mt. Bonnell and Town Lake. Cannot complain! Have a wonderful weekend, y’all.

Favorite Looks of the Week

Some new additions to the ‘Favorite Looks of the Week’ series today! I love all of the outfits so much, but props to Victoria for making her husbands belt work so well with her pretty white dress, Blair for looking effortlessly chic in her white maxi, and Liz for pulling off my favorite denim jacket look (she’s the cutest person ever).

In other news… I’m getting married in 7 days!

Favorite Looks of the Week

TGIF. No seriously. Even though it was a four day week, given that I was in Colorado on Monday, I’m exhausted. I needed pretty pictures // outfits to inspire me this week, and I found plenty. I’m currently adding to my “Engagement Inspiration” Google doc (for those without Pinterest) – some of the below absolutely made it to this collection. The simplicity of Jennifer Grace’s (The Native Fox) outfit? Love, love, love.

Adding to the Blogroll

tumblr_mhslbh0UGw1qdxkdzo1_500_largeI read the same blogs every night (or at least on the days when I don’t crash into my pillow!). I watch zero TV every week, so these sites are my entertainment and inspiration. I love to read the following:

Fashion
Atlantic Pacific: Could Blair be any cooler? The answer is no.
Gal Meets Glam: Beautiful photos, beautiful clothes, beautiful blogger. The trifecta.
Could I Have That?: Samantha reminds me of what Lindsey Lohan could have been. Sigh.
The Pink Peonies: A J. Crew lover’s eye-candy. 
Karla’s Closet: I want Karla’s closet.

Lifestyle/Other
Cupcakes and Cashmere: Meeting Emily was such a cool moment. She’s my style hero.
Design Love Fest: I want to be this design-saavy so badly.
Sequins and Stripes: Liz might be the sweetest person I’ve never met.
Stripes and Sequins: Grace is so cool. I mean, so cool. And crafty to boot!
Buckets and Bunches: I’ve only met Chelsea once but I feel like we are still besties. 
vmac + cheese: Victoria exudes style and grace.
A Piece of Toast blog: These girls! This is a must-read.
Oh So Beautiful Paper: For the stationary obsessed.
Fourth Lake: My best friend/MOH just gets it. And finds amazing pictures.
The Beauty Department: I want to learn all of these tricks.

In my yearning to be among the beauty of NYFW, I was scouring the IFB Conference site and saw the list of speakers, many of whom I hadn’t heard of before. I immediately went to their sites and am tickled – new blogs to follow? Yes, please. I’m obviously way behind, but if you haven’t looked at these, you should.

Favorite Looks of the Week

I love Christmas! It’s such a joyful time. We arrived back in the states on Christmas day and headed straight to my parent’s house for Christmas dinner. Jet lag could not bring down the excitement at the Semples! My favorite outfits for this week range greatly in style and make each of the blogger’s whereabouts very obvious (i.e. desert vs. Hawaii vs. New England). Blair’s look below is my favorite! It’s gorgeous.

Happy New Year, y’all!TRAVEL_12
