City Ruffles #FashionFriday

There is something about this outfit that feels very city chic, like I’m ready to hit the streets of NYC.  Instead, Mom and I took a trip to Ferndale and Public House, one of my favorite restaurants for good, quick, fresh food and a fun atmosphere.

We actually sat on the covered patio since it was a lovely night.  And it just felt good to be out and having fun.  I feel like I can see that in these photos, the weight lifted off my shoulders for a bit as the world faded away and I let go and had fun.

Of course red lipstick and high heels don’t hurt either 😉

I found this skirt on sale at Saks just about a month ago and it is such a fun find that I will be able to wear year round when I pair it with other things.

It pairs so well with my Johanna Ortiz top that just screams fun, and sometimes life should be about having fun and nothing else.

What outfit do you wear when you want to feel good?

    How do you style your hair, Laura? You have the perfect amount of curl and I love it! Maybe you can do a style tutorial something!

      Thank you so much, Caitlin! I will work on a tutorial. I just purchased the hot rollers from T3 and have been using them – they are great.

Still can't believe I got to meet Bryan Cranston a Still can't believe I got to meet Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul last night!  I'm a huge fan of both of them after watching Breaking Bad, and I love Dos Hombres mezcal 🍹  They are super nice guys and took their time chatting and taking photos with everyone there. I'm so thrilled I got to attend this event and that it was at the Waldorf, one of my favorite places 🌴💚 The signed and engraved bottle is a fabulous keepsake from an unforgettable evening ✨️
