Aritizia Talula Betsy Blouse XXS

Story behind the hat:
A couple of Valentines ago, my bf decided to take me to Goorin Brother in San Francisco. I was a little perplexed when we got there because it was a hat store. He said, "I think you'd look good in a hat, so I'd like to buy you one for Valentine." LOL! He's so random. Hats were never my thing, but I went along with it anyways and picked out a hat. I have never worn it the last 2 years I've had it, well not in public at least. I think it's a great prop for pics, don't you think?


Wearing:
Aritizia Talula Betsy Blouse. XXS. The blouse is lined.

American Eagle Ankle Jegging - Size 00R. Now on sale for $24.95 and lots of small sizes left! (also worn in this post)

Nine West 'Ambitious' Pumps. Light Taupe Color. Size 5.5 Runs true to size.


Wearing:
Aritizia Talula Betsy Blouse. XXS. The blouse is lined.

H&M Pencil Skirt. Size 2. See Elaine from Curls and Pearls wear it here. I bought this skirt during holidays and just have forgotten about it. It's also too cold to wear a skirt to work since our AC is on 24/7!

Skinny Gold Belt from Urban Outfitters. (similar here & here)

Tory Burch Pumps.



Here's a couple of close ups on Alexis Bittar 'Miss Havisham' Crystal Necklace. (similar here & here)

I'm not a fan of indoor pics, but I had to do it. The weather had been terrible lately. It's raining today and probably will tomorrow too.

I hope everyone had a great weekend! :)

    The pictures are just gorgeous! And I totally think you rock that hat. Thanks for the shout out on that skirt, I haven't worn it since it's just been way too cold for me to brave skirts and dresses - hopefully I can break it out again soon.

    Your makeup + hair is so pretty...actually, you are just pretty to begin with. I love that the blouse is lined! :)

    You look so chic and I saw that skirt recently and loved it and wanted to get it after seeing it on Elaine but exercised the restraint I so rarely find. ;)

    I like the indoor pics! I love the first two casual ones on the floor. Of course you already know I like the blouse. I've been curious about it after seeing Anniekuro's twitpic and love it here on you with ripped denim.

    You look gorgeous!

    Ah!! I am in love with everything! I am especially loving the casual look.

    I love your hat story...too cute!!

    And, sigh...Artizia is another store not in Las Vegas. I have been there once in Seattle, but it is in Bellevue, which is not in walking distance from downtown. :(

    I really REALLY like the Aritzia top. I went to Aritzia this weekend and didn't see this top. It so elegant. I love all the accessories from each outfit, the hat and necklaces. Every piece is so unique.

    Your bf sounds fun. That's totally random but that must be nice, having a BF that's spontaneous.

    I love that lace blouse! It's so pretty and looks versatile too since you styled it with both casual jeans and a pencil skirt. Too bad I don't have an Aritzia near me :\
