I’m going to be honest, I’ve been wearing sweaters even though it’s (still) hot outside because… I am who I am. I love a closet shift just as much as the next girl, but sometimes I have to be realistic! We’ve had the well known “Santa Ana winds” coming through Orange County, so on days that I know I will be in outdoor temps, I have to prep my transitional real-weather looks.

This off the shoulder top is one of my favorite colors, a light beige-pink that is so versatile. I recently bought these heels at Nordstrom because I saw them on the queen of shoes, Jenn of Haute off the Rack! They were so cute on her teeny feet, so I knew I had to have them. I think they’re going to go with everything and add a little more interest than your usual nude ankle strap heel.

I actually snagged this entire look from Nordstrom, which is my favorite one-stop-shop for finding pieces at all price ranges – under $50 to luxe investment pieces. I mean… where else can you buy a designer bag AND $12 sunglasses on the same visit!? Because seriously, I’ve snagged both there. Christian, look away!
