Endless Summer Love

Los Angeles is known for its breath taking weather but I have to admit, I want the temperatures to fall a little bit so I can start dressing for fall!

This weekend was still too hot so I couldn't wear anything except dresses and shorts. I found this amazing piece at LFstores before I went to New York and instantly fell in love with the silhouette and eye catching print.

Hope you all had a fabulous work week!

Any fun weekend plans?

Best Memories Come From Bad Ideas

Although it's Fall, it still very much feels like summer in LA.

Our 90 degree weather this weekend made me not only want to teleport myself to the beach but also throw on a casual yet chic outfit for dinner that would keep me cool.

Pairing graphic tees with fun skirts and shorts has become my new obsession.
It's casual, comfortable yet has an edge.

My entire outfit ended up being from Zara (totally accidental).

I love how the peplum skirt gives any outfit a feminine touch but yet the tee and leather give it an edge.

Hope you had a fabulous weekend!

IN(stagram) FUN

I had the opportunity to visit the Just One Eye showroom and it was the most amazing experience in a beautiful gallery! My outfit for that day!

1) In love with this nail polish color. Manicure time!

2) So excited for Fall! Time to bring out the boots.

3) New York City shopping damage done right.

4) Fashion show time! At Neiman Marcus for FNOLA!

My arm candy and casual sneakers on the plane from NY back to LA!

1) It's not a party unless it's an arm party.

2)I had an amazing time at the Neiman Marcus Fashion Show FNOLA!

3) "Reality leaves a lot to the imagination" - John Lennon

4) Breath taking view from the Empire State building NYC.

I tried on this amazing raccoon fur jacket and immediately fell in love. It was one of my favorite pieces from the Just One Eye showroom.

Technology and I do not get along.

As soon as I got my iPhone fixed, my camera decided to be temperamental.

But *crossing fingers* everything has been fixed and Studs and Sapphires is back in full force!
I have some exciting/project coming up and can't wait to share them with you!

In the meantime, I wanted to share some of my photos from Instagram. 

Follow me @studsandsapphires for more fun stuff!

Happy almost Friday!

Rockin' Fall

YAY to seeing the end of the tunnel. I have been sick this past week and let me tell you it's the worst during the summer. I'm finally better and couldn't help but to share my outfit that I wore this past weekend out to dinner with some friends.

Recently I have been obsessing over anything leather. Leather shorts, skirts, pants, and more.

This skirt was one of my most recent purchases from my New York trip and I haven't stopped wearing it since.

The necklace as well! As soon as I purchased it, I decided to flaunt it on my last night in NY. It was a casual dinner so I paired it with a grey casual tee and some ankle booties for a fun night out with the girls. I will definitely be wearing this number out many times this fall/winter season.

Hope you are all having a fabulous Thursday!

Thank you so much for the continuous support. I am blessed and thankful for all the wonderful love!

Weekend Kicks

Sneakers that have a heel and comfortable?

Count me in. I would like every style and every color.

Although I love to dress up and show my feminine side, sometimes it's fun to have an edge with a hint of comfort chic.
When I saw these sneakers at Topshop in New York, I knew I had to have them as soon as I slipped them on.

Not only were they comfortable, but the hidden wedge heel made me love them more.

I know it was too hot in L.A to wear them but I couldn't resist.

I paired it with high-waisted cut off shorts and a plaid shirt with many accessories for a Sunday funday.

What are your thoughts on these sneakers that have a hidden heel?

Loving it or hating it? LOVE.

Have a fabulous Monday!
