Favorite Things: Matt & Nat

I love Matt & Nat bags. So much. I hate when accessories are described as "rocker" just because they have studs or grommets, so I won't do that but ... these are pretty bad ass.
Oh, and did I mention Matt & Nat's having a sale? Here are my favorites.

HENDRIX - STELLAR



COMMIX - NAPPA


HARLEY - NAPPA


PHISH - STELLAR


JOOLS - NAPPA
I just got this wallet on Gilt Group and I love it!

Etsy Finds: Ballet Inspired

I just read the Stern Grove Festival summer schedule and was excited to see The San Francisco Ballet will be performing the day before my birthday. In anticipation, I started looking for some pretty ballet and dance inspired outfits on Etsy.

Favorite Things: Olsen Haus Babylon Flats

The Babylon flats by Olsen Haus are my go-to shoes right now. They're are super comfortable - and yes, arch support! I have two pairs in black and peacock. I wear both all the time. Their one flaw is that the soles are pretty delicate, I got mine resoled for $30 and they've been great since.

Looking For... Coral

Coral is one of those universally flattering colors, it's true! I'm usually not that into pink, but this summer I'm loving coral. It's just girly enough without going overboard.

Looking For... Shirtdresses

In my fantasy summer, I'm wearing 50's inspired shirtdresses every day.
I'm also spending my days wandering around a vineyard or an country cabin by a lake. Don't think that's going to happen ... but the shirtdress part is possible with these choices.

Looking For... Vegan Oxfords

I've been searching for menswear inspired vegan oxfords for awhile. Not sure which ones I'm going to commit to yet but here are some contenders.

Marais USA Oxford


BoBo Terra Tan



Wanted Women's Chap Oxford



Antique Brogue - Black


"Rae" jazz oxford shoes in tan

Etsy Finds: Bright Red

When the sun's brighter, I think we all want to dress a little brighter too. I love wearing accents of true red. Bring on the sun!

Etsy Finds: White Eyelet

White Eyelet...delicate, airy, crisp. Very summer!
In reality, I seem to stain anything even resembling white but I can still dream of a lazy picnic by the lake where I wear vintage eyelet (and it stays immaculate.)
