any time i am able to find an outfit to go with one of my favorite pairs of shoes, i get a little too excited. there is just something about a pair of rainbow heels that make a girl freak out! if you remember, i also wore these beauties here and here and would wear them every day if i could! i typically wear these ferragamo heels with a bright, solid-colored dress and knew this paper london dress was going to be the perfect mate!
Read Moreone of my favorite pieces recently has been this polka dot skirt: simply because the dropped pleats are one part retro and one part feminine! i also am obsessed with this dress from kate spade also flaunting the dropped pleat trend. with the modern twist of mixing prints, it easily brings this skirt into the 21st century.
Read Morei don't think it comes as a surprise that i chose this post to be my last from my trip to london with dana. after countless hours of planning, we tried to optimize the best times to go to each location. we researched endless photos on instagram, pinterest and plain old google and concluded that the best time to voyage to big ben, was sunset.

Read Moreit was another hectic 6am wake up call where dana and i were scrambling to get out the door on time in order to keep our schedule for the day. but thankfully we made it to the palace before the crowds and the morning commuters. so i would basically say we had a private audience with queen lizzie herself.
Read Moremy two favorite things in life are the color pink and cake. and when you combine those things together, you get peggy porschen cakes! this highly instagrammed spot was at the top of my list and dana and i knew the perfect time to go...breakfast!
Read Morewhenever i travel or have an outdoor event, i check the weather obsessively. as in i whip out the radar and become the female al roker. so before leaving for london, i knew rain was going to be inevitable...it was just a matter of when it was going to happen. the weather predictions seemed to change every 10 minutes so we left a lot of our planning up to fate. aside from the crazy winds our first day there (anyone remember the snap of dana's hat flying off!?), the weather seemed to be on our side. but there was one morning where we weren't so lucky.
Read Moreoh hello london!! it has been so long (okay okay only a year and a half) since my last trip to london but i was so excited to bring dana along this time around! one of the places i knew i wanted to revisit was notting hill. no exceptions! as the self-designated trip planner, i blocked off an entire afternoon to just stroll the streets of the cutest neighborhood in london and i still feel like i needed more time!
