White & Blue & Paisley All Over...





What I'm Wearing...

* Blue and white Eva Franco paisley dress... also seen here.
* Vintage beaded blue and white necklace with House of Harlow 1960 gold pyramid stud necklace layered over {plus my pendant necklace that is off to the side :/ } hoop earrings, Joseph Mimi rings, Kenneth Cole watch watch & blue snakeskin bangle
* Rebecca Minkoff MAB in blue/gray
* Chloe sunglasses
* Superga sneakers in navy {love}


I have a thing about wearing heels at a home event or even at other people's houses. I'm not sure why really. It think it has to do with being comfortable and relaxed in a home and heels are the opposite of both of those things. So rather than wearing sandals or flats even, I opted for my navy Superga sneakers and actually, I loved the look! It reminded me so much of the 90's when I'd wear converse with dresses on the regular. Or even those weird canvas shoes with rubber capped toes and chunky soles that weren't actually sneakers but weren't anything else either... remember those {kind of like these}? They remind me now so much of Liv Tyler's character in Stealing Beauty {one of my favorite movies ever} when she wears the red floral printed skirt & blouse tied at the waist. Needless to say, I was comfortable.














I wore this outfit Sunday evening to a lovely and colorful dinner party with these two fabulous DIYing ladies Marisa and Sonya and of course I can't fill you in on any details but I will say this: exciting stuff is in the works ;)



Happy Thursday!

I am the same way, if I am just hanging at home or someone elses' home, no heels.

I love it when stylish people wear flats. Heels always look awesome but I have yet to find a pair that is comfortable for any length of time, so I do a lot of flats and wedges. I am so into paisley right now, this dress is great on you.
