I have been on vacation in Florida this week, which is why I haven't been doing my usual outfit posts. I documented all of my vacation looks and will post them when I get back to Missouri : ) In the meantime here is my outfit that I wore to the airport, just because you're traveling doesn't mean you can't still look stylish! I love these Rebecca Minkoff sandals I am wearing, they are the perfect pop of neon.

On My Radar: The Great Gatsby

One of my all time favorite books is The Great Gatsby. Even though the movie isn't coming out until Christmas time, I am already so excited! I love the style of the roaring twenties, and have been majorly inspired by the promo pictures of the movie. I'm sure the costumes will be phenomenal and a huge fashion influence. Until then here are some of my favorite Gatsby inspired pieces.

SUNSHINE IN RAIN




Dress: Elly's Couture (similar). Shoes: Lauren Conrad (similar). Bag: Kate Spade. Sunglasses: RayBan
Jewelry: Ann Taylor, David Yurman, Alex Monroe, J.Crew, Nordstrom.

If these pictures look rushed...it's because they were! There were some very ominous clouds hanging over us the entire time we were shooting, so we had to kick it into high gear!  I got this dress from the Boutique I work at, and the moment it came into the store I fell in love. It was the perfect yellow ray of sunshine to combat these rainy skies we've been having.

Lately I have been obsessed with all of these "Shirt Collar" necklaces that are starting to pop up everywhere. I think they'd be the perfect way to dress up a t-shirt! What do you guys think?

ON MY RADAR: TORY BURCH FLATS

Tory Burch

Sick of teetering around in sky high platforms? Slip on a pair of these deliciously comfortable Tory Burch flats. As chic as they are comfortable, these flats are definitely one of my wardrobe staples. Find your perfect pair at Bergdorf Goodman.
