This may be the perfect box set for your preppy, horse racing friend, but isn't it a little too much. It's only about $20 cheaper, and let's be honest, are you really going to wear ALL those colours?

meggyums is mean!

Mean old meggyums in MY Lilly skirt. She should stick to navy. Also note the Lilly iPod case, the stack of Sperry shoe boxes, the Sperry rain boots behind her legs and the Sperry boat shoes in the back. Look at the colours, does not go with pink!

Spring has sprung!

 

Meggyums sent me this pic of my new monogrammed Ralph cardi and a new Lilly dress to torture me. She is now threatening to wear my cardi!

Outfit of the day- Batik Beautiful

close up on bandeau and print on the top

Top: Lands' End
Denim leggings: Macy's
Shoes: Sperry's
Purse: Lilly Bloom
Bandeau: A gift.

The top is a beach cover up which I like to wear as a top. the style is similar to an Indian kurta, a loose, thin long-sleeved top. The contrast of the loose top and the tight jeans looks awesome, and yes I follow my own rules, it hits well below my butt! The print is a kind of fake batik like thing. I went with pretty minimalist accessories. I love my Lily Bloom bag for many reasons. I got a $60 bag for $20, it's recycled plastic, the size is great and the colourful, fun print matches with everything! I couldn't link a website because there isn't one. You can get one on Amazon, eBay or do like me and get it at Marshall's. I also saw at TJ Maxx. Here I was thinking it was just a cute, no-name bag!

fan printed shorts

I love these Milly shorts sooooo much, but they are way too pricy.

I did find a pretty similar pair in crew cuts on J.Crew. So cute!

Feel free to treat me to these!

Do you think this fan print is a new "trend"?

Outfit of the day- sailing style

Rash guard: Gill
Board shorts: Billabong
Bikini top: Lands' End
Bikini bottom: Lands' End
Flip flops: O'Neill

I've been "working"/ volunteering (whatever you want to call it because I'm not being paid) at the yacht club this week I just wanted to show what I would wear to sail, except I would switch out the rash guard for any t-shirt (usually white). And, that is probably one of the most comforable bikini bottoms I have ever owned.

how to wear leggings (under shorts, dresses & skirts)

Lots of people seem to be confused with how to wear leggings, so I'm going to go it over

Bought these together

when I got home realized all THESE tops matched too!

Now I don't know if my closet is monotonous, but at least it's not pink and green!

Views of a bowtie

I recently caught up with one of Meggyums' friends, Mumford, to chat about bow ties. Here's how it went.The things in these [ ] funny little things are my side comments. Words in purple are me, the interviewer and words in blue italics are Mumford.

mimi loves lilly!

I ADORE this Lilly outfit. Note that both the tank and the skirt are patterned, but look amazing together. Such a Meggyums outfit which Mimmyums would totally "borrow".
