Comforting Hues

Published on by thenavyleopard1 Comment

Life is too short to be uncomfortable.  These silk foulard pajama inspired pieces from J. Crew are comfy and stylish.  I am pleased that public pajamas trend continues.  I must share that when my husband took these photos he said “Who are you, Hugh Hefner?”  Hugh certainly does not lack for comfort.

Here are three looks:

Clutching my Heart

Published on by thenavyleopardLeave a comment

I have been building my collection of clutches for a while and recently added acrylic dividers (similar here) to my closet to make my collection easier to see and access.

My son was particularly helpful with this project and kept pulling the J. Crew silver one with the perforated hearts (pictured above) and telling me that I needed to do a Valentine’s post.  It got me thinking that Valentine’s themed clutches work year round.  Who doesn’t want to carry a heart around or liven up an outfit with a pop of pink or red?

I recently ordered three (!) from Parker Thatch as a Valentine gift to myself.  They have an amazing selection and you can even add a love letter to them. They arrived with a lovely note.

Shades of Blue

Published on by thenavyleopard2 Comments

It is no secret that blue is my favorite color.  I found the 10,000 Buddhas wall by Amanda Giacomini in Venice to be so serene.  You can read more on Amanda and the 10,000 Buddhas project here.

Of course, I was dressed to match.  My favorite striped flats from J. Crew have been marked down again, so they are a super deal.  My favorite and oh-so-comfy lookout high-rise jeans from J.Crew are also on sale.  My navy gingham button up and panama hat are both on constant repeat along with my Veronica tote from Parker Thatch.

Stripes, Embroidery and Cars

Published on by thenavyleopardLeave a comment

Father’s Day was all about cars this year.  We headed to Beverly Hills to the Rodeo Drive Concours D’Elegance in the blazing heat to see a very diverse collection of cars much to the delight of both father and son.  I was happy to have a breezy dress and hat to wear in the near 100 degree heat. The dress is the second dress I picked up on my recent birthday shopping trip to Calypso. I love that it combines my favorite blue and white stripes with embroidery. It happened to match a beautiful blue Bugatti that was in the show.   I also brought along my new summer tote from Parker Thatch.  It is the perfect size and has an internal zip top, so it is perfect for travel.  The sequins and navy pom are fun.  There are other pom color choices.IMG_6530IMG_6536IMG_6535

Chambray, Sunset and Sequins

Published on by thenavyleopard2 Comments

With the warmer weather I am enjoying easy one step summer dresses.  This chambray dress is a similar style to the gingham that I featured in this post and the coral that I featured in this post.  I styled it with my new favorite gold espadrilles (40% off today see details below) , hat and my new summer tote from Parker Thatch.  The tote is the perfect size and has an internal zipper, so it is great for travel.  I love the sequins and navy pom.  The night before my birthday I had a great dinner with my parents and son at Ki’s in Cardiff on the beach and caught an amazing sunset.
