I know I said this about yesterday's post, but I think these photos might actually be my true favorite. As you may know, Wes and I teamed up to shoot my Matchbook Magazine feature and when I mentioned this outfit, we both found it fitting to be shot right by the water near the Bay Bridge, in hopes that the wind would catch the skirt just right. And the wind, well, she certainly didn't disappoint! 

In other news, stay tuned later today when I announce the winner of the Breil watch giveaway! So many great entries, guys. I loved reading your comments!

And as always, thank you so much for reading! I can't express how fortunate I feel to have such wonderful readers like yourself! It truly makes my day, every day. 

UPDATE: The winner of the Breil watch giveaway is Nicole from Giraffe Legs! Nicole, I'll be emailing you shortly! Congratulations!

As promised, here's one of my looks from this month's Matchbook Magazine feature and it's probably, hands down, one of my favorite. Not only am I just a sucker for peplum tops and bold printed pants, but Wes Sumner captured some unbelievable sunset light in these photos, no?

As of yesterday, I couldn't be more tickled to tell all of you that I've been featured in the March issue of Matchbook Magazine! And since I'm running unbelievably late this morning (per usual, I know), I figured I might scoot you over there to check it out.

Special thanks to Katie and Mackenzie for having me and of course, to the talented Wes Sumner, who was the man behind the lens for it! I can't stop blushing, guys. Seriously!

I'll be posting more from our photo shoot throughout next week but in the meantime, hope you enjoy the sneak peek above!

While in New York just a few weeks back, Heather and I had a fan girl moment outside of the Prabal Gurung show when we spotted this stylish lady ducking into a town car. Unfortunately, we weren't quick enough to snap her picture (she's mighty speedy in those pumps of hers!) but as evidenced by the snaps above, I took a few cues from her perfectly styled jacket-upon-jacket look. And you know what, I rather like the results! 

How about you guys? Try any jacket layering lately? Would love to seem them! Please share your links below in the comments!

Also, on a side note, if you haven't already entered my Breil watch giveaway, I strongly suggest you do! The clock is ticking (har, har!).

Just a short and sweet post today, literally running out the door as we speak, er, type. But in case no one has wished it to you yet, have a happy leap day!
