1. Next to monochromatic whites, my second best go-to combo of the moment is B&W. Lately, I've noticed a slight shift in my taste, from earthy boho styles to simple silhouettes revolved around standard hues. While I usually gravity towards brighter colors, prints and oversized flowy things, I'm appreciating the variety of combinations you have achieve when stocking the more essential pieces. Perhaps it's the Chinese in (all) of me…. More bang for buck.
2. Scored this top from Phistyle's poshmark! If you didn't already know about Poshmark, it's been my newest obsession for the past 3 months. I'm constantly rotating my closet and I used to have to wait for locally hosted events to off load, but now I have the means to sell my pre-loved, gently used items on a daily basis via the Poshmark app. Poshmark takes 20% (which is actually kind of a lot of commission, but the network of buyers and sellers that you're exposed to is worth the fee) and they email you the prepaid shipping label! It's a little effort to maintain, but the more active you are in adding items to your closet, responding to buyers' inquiries and "sharing" other closets with your followers, the more exposure and sales you make too. I've made enough money to pay Willow's preschool tuition and them some!!! So sign up people! Make money, recycle, cleanse and follow me…

Kay's from Aldo. It was a spontaneous gotta-have purchase I made a couple weeks ago (from my hard earned poshmark money, woo hoo!) because it sort of reminded me of the Maison Margiela
cut out sandal bootie I'll never own. I'm really fawning over the hybrid sandal/boot look right now and the totally encased heel cup of the
Kay's, makes it feel similarly sexy.

4. I'm so tan…and for the record, I don't like it. I favor fair skin and I'm jealous of anyone who is "tan proof". I TAN TOO EASY !!! My overly bronzed body is the result of making sure Willow spends the least amount of time in doors as possible. I take her to the beach or pool at any opportunity I get because Shane has been dying to get her on a surf board. Been trying to teach her to swim, but so far, not so good. She enjoys the being in the water but vehemently declines the full submerge. Can't complain too about the tan much though, because after all, I do live in paradise.
