not-so-casual friday.

it's been a while since i've been home long enough to do laundry, and i can't remember the last time i've seen the inside of a dry cleaner. so in searching for an outfit this morning from my near barren closet (well...in regards to clothes i actually wanted to wear anyway), i had to get a little bit creative.


that's when i noticed the sheer, gold-studded and floral embroidered bolero from anthropologie that i wore for christmas hanging among the similar colored vests and tanks i typically save for the weekends. it's a little flashier than something i'd normally wear during the week, but paired with a red racer-back and a pop of yellow lace peeking out, plus cropped brown skinny work pants, a pair of neutral summery heels and my favorite wooden l.a. skyline necklace, it was surprisingly perfect for a spring day at the office...and maybe a trip to happy hour afterward.
