750

I'm kind of in shock that this is my 750th post... that seems like a pretty big deal to me, and a pretty big number!

Oh, and in other news... skip on over to Respect the Shoes  to enter a fun little give away!!

Stripe Skirt and Grey Tippi

What a crazy weekend it was and Monday was "just another manic Monday..."

Yesterday was a little tough.  It's not the easiest being told you can't do something when you sure as hell know you can.  And now I'm here curled up on the couch eating watermelon one melon ball scoop at a time (not even kidding... half a watermelon and I'm slowing tearing away at her...).

I don't know about you, but when someone tells me I can't, it just gives me the drive to do it any way.  I'm gonna' go for it.

Happy Tuesday.

Chevron Stripe

I should have warned you that you'd be seeing these flats a bit... so now you're warned.  They'll be popping up quite a bit this summer.  Happy Friday!!

Gold Shoes

I'm not sure how long we've heard rumors that Google Friend Connect (GFC) would be going away (I'm thinking at least a few years) but it sounds like as of July 1, 2013, Google really will be doing away with it.  GFC allows you to follow along and get updates in your blog list when any blogger publishes a new post.  That being said, Bloglovin is a great alternative to this issue.  You can follow Sequins & Stilettos by clicking HERE and then click on the little blue button that says "Follow."  You can also import all of the blogs you currently follow by going to this page, click on 'Google Reader'/'Import from Google Reader'/Grant Authentication and voila!!

Now... on to a pretty calm outfit of the day:

These flats are seriously so comfortable!  I was looking for a cute "boat shoe" for the summer and when I saw this gold pair I knew they would go with so many outfits.  I've already worn them a dozen times and they're great!  And who doesn't love a little extra gold/metallic to incorporate into their outfit??

A Little White T

Well, this is as close as I can get for a little white t-shirt and jeans.  The guys at work joke about making bets that I will {hopefully} lose and if I lose I have to wear tennis shoes and an actual t-shirt to work.  Okay, okay... it happens, truthfully, but I also tend to have a mop in hand or doing yard work.  Some day I will post pictures of either event.

Geometric

I knew from the moment I purchased these pants that they might be a little much for my colleagues.  Haha, boy was I right!  It doesn't phase me though... they are starting to get used to me after {almost} a year.

Next time I will have to take it a step further and pair it with a brightly colored top!  Happy Friday!!

Pink on Pink with a Side of Stripes

Playing with pink on pink and I'm liking it with the separation of stripes:

j crew gold belt (old) // j crew pia calf hair pumps (similar here) // j crew cupcake necklace

Keeping it bright for the summer!  Thanks for stopping by!
