Stripes and Lace.

There’s something oh so ladylike about the combination of lace and a skirt – it’s a combination that always feels very put together to me. It’s just the right amount of feminine without being too fussy or frilly and I love that this look could work for practically any occasion, from a day at the office to brunch with your parents.

Have you guys checked out J. Crew Factory lately? I swear they’re on fire – everything has been SO good (I’ve been scooping up more items from there than even J. Crew!). I grabbed both of these pieces recently and while I don’t typically like to wear a head to toe outfit from one retailer, I love how they look together. This lace top has become an instant staple – it looks great tucked into skirts and equally cute paired with denim for a more casual look. I’ve also been gravitating toward midi skirts; the longer hemline feels more grown up than a mini and the extra fabric is appreciated with San Francisco’s unpredictable weather lately.

Also, if you haven’t heard of DITTO yet… Listen up. It’s a sunglasses rental service where for $24 a month you’re able to borrow unlimited designer sunglasses! I’ve been a member for a few months now and it’s been so much fun to be able to have a new rotation of sunglasses to wear. If you’re interested in checking it out for yourself you can use code PRETTYANDFUN at checkout and get your first month fo’ free.
