I finally caved in with the peplum trend, I opted for the Santa Maria top from Sugarlips with these gorgeous cutouts. It's in an easy, comfortable cotton material that I don't see too often in peplum tops - part of the reason why I'm so into it.

casual cashmere and sequins

DRESS THE POPULATION sequin dress  |  Subtle Luxury wrap sweater  |  Zara heels

I don't know how Landon does it sometimes, he manages to capture the perfect amount of light in each photo. Each shot has a sort of lack luster color - which is actually a good thing in this shoot - that captures the DRESS THE POPULATION sequin dress in a way that looks like it's a beautiful scaly part of me. Sequins weren't really my thing, but paired with my favorite grey Subtle Luxury sweater - the copper sequins seem so much more subdued, which conjures up crazy thoughts in my head. Sequins everyday, anyone?

subtle luxury on the best hair day

Subtle Luxury by name and nature screams luxurious comfort and although you can't see it, this cashmere sweater was all that and more for a long night at the Sephora and ghd North America event last night. A quick run out of the store gave me a chance to photograph this gorgeous sweater that kept me warm on a surprisingly cool August day. I'll be styling this sweater in another post as well, this time, with a little more glam and sequins (hint hint). 

My hair? It's not normally like this, but boy did ghd North America hook me up with some awesome locks! I'm not sure how often my hair will get treated like this, but I might just go and snag myself one of their adorable stylers from Sephora. I'm sold! 

Just a quick blog update, sometimes short and simple does the trick!
