Wedding season is in full swing. I haven’t had too many of my friends take the plunge… But on occasion I am able to make someone’s plus one list and indulge in cake and wine!

French Connection tube dress, personal vintage jacquard jacket, River Island shoes and Junior Drake clutch.

I’ve started calling items I’ve had for 4+ years personal vintage.  This jacket is one of those pieces,  every season I clean out my closet and it would make the cut to hang for at least another season. I picked up the jacket at Nordstrom in the B.P. department about 5 years ago. I wore it a lot then, but in recent years it hasn’t seen much wear.

This jacket is perfectly paired with the pale pink dress, which picks up off the pink flowers in jacket.

Junior Drake gold flat tasseled clutch, earrings, bracelet and headband – random.

I attended the Maxim Hot 100 Party this past Wednesday. I wore a yellow French Connection mini dress with an exaggerated waist bow.

French Connection Dress, Proenza Schouler booties and Forever21 jewelry.

Love this side bow, it’s the main reason for picking up this number! I decide to go with the floral necklace and pearl bracelet to give it more of softer touch.

Just for Fun!

The party was held at the Paramount studios back lot. The theme was a playground for adults with everything from a swing set, ice cream truck and of course a bars!

Especially if it’s a specialty chain you like, but I had to do my part during the closing sale of the French Connection 3^rd Street Santa Monica.
