baroque




Sweater: Wasteland in SF (just bought this version); Skirt: Zara (love this similar style); Shoes: Nicholas Kirkwood (similar style here); Sunglasses: Elizabeth & James; Clutch: Vintage; Jewelry: Zara rhinestone necklace, Bar III collar necklace c/o Macys

You may recall this post where I professed my love of all things baroque for fall -- so stumbling upon this flared skirt at Zara this past weekend was a no brainer for me. (Bonus fall points for coming in my favorite color du jour -- emerald.) As for other fall trends, you can peek my new Pinterest board that I've been curating like mad, aptly titled "Delightfully Chic" -- where you'll find all my current cravings and, let's be honest, wait-listed-for-sales items. 

But, if you'd rather not wait (because who ever does?!) I've partnered with one of my favorite Marina boutique gems, Chloe Rose, so one of you, dear readers, can reap the rewards of a $500 shopping spree at Chloe Rose (I just ask that you Instagram the loot!). To enter, simply create a Pinterest board titled "Delightfully Chic" and pin away, making sure to include at least three items from Chloe Rose. You have until 10/30 to set your board up, with the winner being selected and announced by a panel of Chloe Rose and other participating bloggers on 11/1. 

And while we're on the subject of contests, I'm pleased to announce that Jen of The Stylish Housewife is our winner of the Elizabeth Kosich bathing suit giveaway! Sending you an email now, lady -- congrats!
