Pinwheels and Pearls

Happy Valentine’s Day! In honor of this special day, I bring you one of my current loves, this Jason Wu for Target pearl collar dress. I really enjoy everything about it, the cut, flirty sleeves and pinwheel print. It will be great for evening spring/summer outings and meeting days at work. Unfortunately, there isn’t as explosion of pink to be found in this outfit, but if you look closely you will find pops of the color (lips, clutch zipper and toes).

I’m excited to spend tonight at a cozy, little Italian restaurant down the street from our apartment. It’s unpretentious and not very loud or crowded, and walking aka strolling hand in hand (come on, it is the day of cheese) is so much nicer than getting in a car, which is the norm in this city.

Back to coloring the heart on my Valentine’s card. I’m pretty excited about my card idea and may have to share it later. Do you have any special plans for tonight?

Also, today is the last day to vote in Refinery29‘s Next Style Blogger contest. If you haven’t already voted, please vote for me here.
