Currently Coveting

July 18, 2013 by jessica 0 Comments

Right now, I’m coveting:

A sequined take on animal print
Loose, scalloped shorts that look a bit like a skirt when worn
Embellished coats
This pair of statement earrings for $10
Loeffler Randall’s pre-fall collection, especially this pair of platforms and these wedge booties
A sleek metallic handbag

As much as I’d like to be an effortless beauty in the summer, barely glistening as the humidity skyrockets, I’m not. I’m usually preoccupied with my lifeless hair (which, by the way, is curled in that photo) and slathering on sunscreen in fear of irreparable sun damage. And then I discovered this tunic. Who knew that putting on more fabric would be cooler than itty bitty tank tops? Lilly Pulitzer, that’s who.

In other news, the Shoshanna white dress I hoped would be “the one” didn’t work out. The shape was lovely, but the fabric wrinkled awkwardly on the sides of my chest. It would look better on a gal with more up top to fill it out.

Lately, I’m Loving…

…a relaxing stop at the Great Dane beer garden in downtown Madison. After years of living here, I’m embarrassed to admit that I didn’t even know about this oasis until Dave mentioned it. It was a welcome way to refuel during last weekend’s Art Fair on the Square.

Bauble of the Week

Shopbop’s end-of-season sale is tempting with finds like this Gemma Redux necklace. The asymmetrical mix of metal and quartz crystals is a bit irreverent, but the the rainbow effect of gold, rose-gold and white nickel keeps it refined.

Admittedly, I couldn’t resist purchasing this Shoshanna white dress while I was perusing the sale. As I’ve lamented before, I’ve been on a two-year hunt for the perfect one. I’m unsure about the seam detail on it, but the shape is right. Fingers crossed that it works out!
