Pinky Bottoms

Since I can't wear skirts or dresses to work, I have to find new ways to wear pants. Colored jeans fit the ticket, but I'm not sure I love how this pair fits me.

I bought this pair about 6 months ago and have only worn them 3 times - they are just too tight...and bright. I usually try to wear dark pants so going in the complete opposite direction with bright pink pants is a little foreign to me. I love the idea of colored jeans so now I'm in the market for some emerald jeans (so I can look like this) or some maroon pants (so I can wear them like this).

How do you feel about colored jeans? Do you want a pair in every shade of the rainbow, or are you sticking to the darker shades?

I wore this for my half day at work on Friday and then for my drive down to Chicago...where I immediately changed into a sundress since it was 90 degrees outside of my air conditioned car. If you follow along on instagram (@FHasselhof) you saw all the fun things we drank, ate...and bought.

I could sparkle up your eye

The first time I saw Lana del Ray, it was on SNL and I had the same reaction I did when Robyn performed: who is this girl and why is she on my television. The swaying, the lips, the clothes...I just did not know what to do with her.

Now I know: her music is the perfect soundtrack for a rainy day. I can't stop listening.

How cute are these leaf bracelets? My mom is one of the most fashionable people I know, but not in the sense that she spends a lot of money on clothing. The best advice I ever received from her was to mix high end pieces with the more inexpensive items in your closet...which is why my Tiffany & Co bracelet looks right at home next to my F21 bangles. What's the best fashion advice you've received from your mom?
