Thanks for all your support and encouragement last week when I shared this post. :) You guys are the best! I'm feeling much more inspired and hoping that I can start to snowball this momentum... thanks for cheering me up! :)
 
We're supposed to be getting into the cooler months but the mercury in SoCal just keeps going up and down.. and up and down. It can't make up it's mind! So on a warmer day last week, I wanted to dress down this sequin skirt. Actually this outfit is basically the same (chambray + sequins) yet the opposite (day vs. night) of when I dressed up these sequin pants. Chambray is my perfect go-to whether you want to go casual or dressy - such a versatile piece!
 
To bring my sequin skirt down to a daytime appropriate level, I kept my shoes flat, my top simple & just a pop from my statement necklace. But I always have to put a twist on it, so I picked some patterned leopard loafers & neon nail polish for a hint of playful fun.
 
I'm so glad today is Friday and the weekend is here.. Oh!! Don't forget it's Daylight Savings Time this Sunday which means we get an extra hour of beauty sleep. Hooray! :) Happy Weekend xoxo
