La Jolie Jambe

Dear Summer,

It's time to say goodbye. You were good to me in the best way that ice cream and whiskey could be. I didn't make it to the beach, but at least I drank my ass off on a boat. That's gotta count for something, right? Until next time... xo

Sheer, flowy pieces are the perfect way to savor every last bite of the summer season. This mint green maxi skirt makes me feel Grecian-goddess as fuck; I really appreciate it. Double the slit ain't got shit on Angelina Jolie's right leg, but the pleated flap does an awesome job at tripping me every time I walk. Every bit of this outfit is from an insignificant store in SoHo, sans the Miu Miu sandals and Argentino Vivo jewels. Throw on a leather jacket for an easy way to shift into the beginning stages of fall layering. But for now, I'll deal with the chill in the air.

Skinny Dip (Giveaway!)

As you may or may not know, I'm the official blogger for the youthful, All-American clothing company, The Skinny Dip Shop. I also help run the Twitter, Instagram, Facebook...etc. (So make sure you follow!) I'm so proud to be a part of the creative effort, and even more proud to announce the latest collaboration. 

Created in 2010 in NYC by Kelly Shami, The Skinny Dip Shop represents the youth in all of us. The new Tandem Label is a collaboration of Kelly's creative designs and her twin brother Mark's background in pop music.

Sunglasses Spotlight: Karen Walker

All of the pairs above are my favorite sunglasses for summer. The only thing is... one pair retails for $20.00 from Gypsy Warrior, and the rest are $220.00+ by Karen Walker. You wouldn't be able to guess which cost $200.00 less unless I told you, though. Usually I'd be up in arms to see something so cheap compared to a designer name, but the $20.00 pair looks identical right down to the details. The $20.00 pair has a similar shape, metal-toned accents, and a thick frame. Soo, should I tell you or have you figure it out for yourselves?
