What I’m Wearing
* Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent shift dress from nordstrom.com …last seen here
* Vintage Ungaro Parallele Paris striped blazer …last seen here
* Pour La Victoire Tula Open Toe Wedge
*D&G gold watch, vintage gold bangles, vintage gold and ruby ring {Grandma’s}, various gold stacking rings, and vintage gold & gemstone gilded gold ring I found last month while antique mall-ing
* Tom Ford “Anouk” sunglasses …which I love so much I can barely stand to rotate the rest of my sunglasses collection.

It’s that strange time of year when Fall clothes are on the radar but the weather is just waking up to Summer {here in LA} which makes getting dressed in the morning a giant cluster-fuck. It’s rare when I have an outfit chosen the night before including accessories and I can just throw it all on confidently, apply my mascara, finish my hair and get out the door on time {very rare} … and this morning was no exception, although it would be much smarter of me if I did. ALSO, my dress was not wrinkled when I left the house. I blame the car seatbelt the most for this sad display.

I’m getting my hair done this afternoon and I’m tempted {as always} to chop it all off into a messy shoulder-length bob à la Scarlett Johansson …but I most likely will not. It’s nice to have lots of hair to hide behind sometimes, something I rarely remember until I chop it all off. This may or may not be the last time I see my stylist, Nikki, as the salon she rents a chair from seems to be closing. Goddammit! What on earth will I do? I’ve been loyally seeing Nikki longer than any other stylist in the existence of me coloring my hair {which pretty much began after I graduated high school when I dyed it burgundy, you know, the 90’s} So, insert the biggest sigh ever right here because again, what on earth am I going to do? {and yes, I’m being totally dramatic}
