HAPPY JULY!


Happy first day of the best month of the year!
July 4th, smack dab in the middle of summer, beach days, barbecues, popsicles, and my birthday (!!!!).... 
What more could a girl ask for?


THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

WEEKEND LINKS



Hey, hey. What I've been clicking on this week:

01. Who What Wear - 10 Need-To-Know Tips for Getting Your Fashion Dream Job: Some tips and tricks to "break into the fashion industry". Lame phrase, but really - work hard and have a good attitude and always write a nice thank you note. #internlife

02. Vogue - Wedding Guide: Where has this been all my life? Love their breakdown by different categories. I wish there were more to flip through and daydream about. #swoon

02. Levo League - How to Become that Girl you Always Wanted to Be: Comparison is the thief of joy and all that. Great article on how to channel all that girl-crush-envy into making yourself girl-crushable. Step one: get a juicer. (Just kidding.)

03. The Spectacular Now Trailer: All of the interns in my office are obsessing over this. It's cute and romantic and funny (all the things I like best in a movie) without being cheesy or cliche. Also - it got rave reviews at Sundance so it must be good, right guys?????

04. Guest of a Guest - The 10 Best Midtown Bars to Unwind after Work: Because HAPPY HOUR is my new jam. Sometimes the week is just too long.  Though right now in my life, I prefer places with $1 beer nights than "good atmosphere". #internlifeagain

05. Leaked New Beyonce Song: Put it on, turn it up, and pour yourself a drink - it's FRIDAY!!!



A GAME OF LOVE


In honor of Wimbledon, it's time to break out your tennis whites.  Perfect for easy, breezy summer days, rock an LWD to work or pair a kicky white skirt with a matching top for weekend fun.  Punch it up with colorful accessories (bonus points if it's a cute tennis themed tote, ala Kate Spade) or go the extra mile and add white tennies.  You might not look like Pippa Middleton, but you will look like you just stepped off Centre Court. (Athleticism optional.)

DESIGN FILES: BRIGHT + BOLD







For every pristine white kitchen that I pin, I pin just as many rooms with crazy wallpaper and shockingly-colored furniture. After all, too much of a good thing (color + pattern) can be truly wonderful!
