I’ve been dying to wear these “I <3 My Loubies” Louboutin loafers for quite some time, but let’s be honest — they aren’t appropriate for just any outfit. But this weekend offered me the perfect chance. I paired them with leather shorts and a silk button down for a laid back date night at Carriage House Chicago.

Sweater: H&M; Shorts: Juicy Couture; Bag: Badgley Mischka; Shoes: Louboutin.

I am a big fan of gold. Anything gold. So naturally when I found these shorts at Juicy Couture (which is no longer there, sniff) in Beverly Hills a few months back, I just had to have them. They are actually running shorts, but I knew with a few key accessories and some simple black touches I could turn them into a cute outfit for a night out on the town.

Afternoon tea at the Peninsula is something my mom and I have been doing for years. For this outing, I decided to wear a bright blue dress by Madewell — perfect for an afternoon of tea and pastries.

Dress & Jewelry: Nordstrom BP; Crossbody bag: Bagdley Mischka; Sandals: Sam Edelman.

Love this print dress from Nordstrom BP. Great for casual dinners and summer nights out with the bf.

Dress: Tolani; Sandals: Tory Burch; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban.

I love silk, and I love the bright, vibrant colors of this Tolani. It’s a great dress for warmer summer — easy and breezy.

Sweater: Zara; Shorts: Zara; Sandals: Steve Madden; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban.

Probably my favorite thing to wear in the world is a really light, loose knit sweater. So comfy, and so chic — like this one from Zara. I paired the bright yellow-green sweater with black and white shorts (also from Zara) for a pop of color. The result? A chic yet comfy outfit to run some errands in.
