Casual In Lace

All this girl needs is some sunshine and my favorite guy to suggest the beach. That's exactly how the past Saturday went.  Okay sooo these don't look like the beach. But it's close by. These are of the Venice Canals (yeah, there's canals like in Italy). Honestly, we just discovered this amazing part of Venice and I can't believe this is my first time. It was a nice little date walking all along the canals. Believe me my love for Venice just keeps increasing more and more. And when I say Venice I am not talking the part with all the hippie vibes, muscle beach, and tourist parts. Since Venice is really laid back, it was the perfect time to put on my new Free People top. Let's just say it's a new favorite.

Hope you're having a great week! Almost Friday.Almost.

3 Ways to Style A Bomber Jacket

With Spring around the corner, I love adding some new pieces to my closet that I know can work for so many occasions and with pieces I already own. A bomber jacket fits this to a T! This white bomber is fresh for Spring and is great textured fabric that gives it more structure. 

chambray / skirt similar / booties

A pencil skirt and button down is always a great combination for work and topping your look with a bomber jacket is a nice alternative to a blazer. Depending on your work dress code, you can stick with the chambray or a traditional button down.

sweatshirt / jeans / wedges

Since a bomber jacket has a sporty chic vibe putting it with boyfriend jeans just seems right, but your favorite jeans definitely works. Playing up the shoes and accessories is key to making this weekend ensemble look casually polished.

Surprise! I just couldn't keep this a night look. Okay, so maybe I just wanted to wear these leopard 

sneakers (can you blame me?). Either way a LBD can be transformed with bomber jacket and a quick switch of shoes can take your look from night or day or vice versa. 

Can you see a bomber jacket making it's way to your closet?

Trend Alert // Spring Bomber Jacket

one / two / three / four

If you haven't noticed, but I have a thing for jackets and possibly shoes (that on another day). But back to jackets. I was purusing the mall last week and everywhere I turned was a bomber jacket in all these cute fabrics and prints. So many options and oh I love them all! I tried on 3 out of the 4. I had too. I mean how could I not? They add the perfect amount of sporty unexpectedness that is playful and down right fun! Tomorrow I'll show you which one I picked. 

Would you wear this trend?
