classic black + white

i love stripes. i love bows. and as weird as it may be, black and white are my favorite colors.  Valentino Garavani said that a woman dressed in black and white is strong and knows what she wants. and then bows, just an obvious symbol of femininity. 

such an effortless yet adorable outfit for date night. that's all i can say.  paired with my nude G BY GUESS PUMPS and a vintage hard-case MICHEL CLO CUOIO E ARTE cocktail purse.  FOREVER21 highwaisted mini found HERE.  LOVE ON A HANGER tank (so comfy and affordable, i highly recommend) found at your NORDSTROM.  & MICHAEL KORS watch.

this weekend my boyfriend and I decided to just enjoy each other's company and make no plans.  we ending up coming to a nice compromise once deciding what exactly we would be doing.  where we spent half of it drinking beers and eating wings while watching the final four games; and then the other half going on walks & enjoying the beautiful spring weather.  i finally got to take the tags off of some of my spring clothing.  shorts, boots, and a sweater is a great combination for the in-between seasons.  flirty flowers paired with strong gunmetal details to illustrate my new favorite trend -- contrasting patterns. 

my Big Buddah Mia bag is one of my all-time favorite purchases, & i get compliments everywhere i go with it.  I love the structured frame and the three dimensional rose.  i mean what girl doesn't love roses right? it was a nice compliment to my floral pattern shorts.  and i got in on ebay, brand new, for half the price (always check ebay)!
