POKER FACE

Don't you love it when all your current favorites just happen to go together? Cause you know me, when I love something, the urge to wear it over and over again is borderline obsessive! Seriously, I get so attached, I don't want to wear anything else and of course being able to combine all the things I currently love in a single outfit, is a cherry on top!

STUDDED FAVORITES

Relaxed vibes and all my studded favorites in one kinda look. This leather skirt is proving useful in all kinds of marvelous ways. So good with any oversized shirt, I am more than a little addicted to pairing it with denim or relaxed knits! Today, I wore a simple white button down and my studded Laurence Dacade sandals, or as I like to call them the only pair of heeled sandals comfortable enough to to go hiking in:)!

JOAN'S ON THIRD :: STUDIO CITY

Good morning and happy Friday, Everyone! I just wanted to say a quick hello and share a few images from last Wednesday. As you can see, I've been reunited with my favorite partner in crime, Sydne from SydneStyle:) We've been so busy lately, we haven't really had a chance to catch up in a while, so this lunch was well overdue! Anyway, we ended up going to this cute little place in Studio City, which is definitely among my favorite restaurants as of lately! I don't know what it is, but I've developed a massive obsession with salads and soups and they offer an abundance of options in both! Seriously, if you love salads, you have to try their Chinese Chicken Salad, it is seriously one of the best I've ever tried! 

On that note, what are your favorite restaurants in LA?

THE COLOR OF CAPRI

I've spent the past few weeks indulging my inner shoeaholic looking for perfect heels to update my Summer shoe wardrobe and as soon as I spotted the gorgeous strappy pair from M.Gemi I am wearing in today's post, I knew it was a match made in shoe heaven!

Firstly, I love bright Summer sandals! I especially love to pair them with black, white or even both! Aside from the fact that adding a pop of color to a black and white outfit adds a dramatic focal point, it really elevates the whole look to another level.

Secondly, the combination of the sexy silhouette, buttery leather and sporty elastic straps is pure genius because it makes these sandals much more versatile. Obviously they go perfectly with dressy or tailored pieces, but I can also see them paired with skinny or boyfriend jeans and a simple tee all thanks to those slightly sporty straps.

Lastly, let's be honest, a comfortable pair of high heels is really hard to find. Though, I have to admit, I've sacrificed comfort for beauty in the past, it feels pretty good to find a pair of heels I can actually walk in. And I can tell you in all honesty, these babies are pretty darn comfortable! I've worn them all day long and at the end of the day my feet were still intact ( no blisters or blue toes like usual ).

I can probably go on and on listing all the reasons why I love these so much, like the fact that they are handcrafted in Italy and the quality for the price is amazing, but I'm afraid I would run out of space on this blog:) You know me, I get very excited about shoes and these ones are definitely my new obsession:)! In fact, I am actually considering getting them in black as well:)

By the way,  M.Gemi releases new styles every single Monday and each style is made in limited quantities. So, if you are as obsessed with shoes as I am, check out their full collection here, especially The Novella,  another one of my favorites at the moment!

COACHELLA 2015 :: LOOK ONE

To be in Palm Springs any day of the year, for any purpose whatsoever is great but to be in Palm Springs for Festival Season, well...  now that's even better! Every year I wait for Festival Season like a kid waiting for Christmas and once it arrives, it never disappoints! It's always wonderful! Absolutely all of it! The music, the parties, the weather and of course my personal favorite, the fashion! For me, dressing up for the Festival is at least 50 percent of the fun! Ok, probably more like 60, if I was being completely honest, but I pretty sure you already knew that if you follow my blog on regular basis:) And if you didn't, see evidence here.

This year, one of my favorite Festival looks is this black and white Missguided ensemble I am completely in love with, featuring a particularly cute striped dungaree. First and foremost, I am obsessed with dungaree rompers and this striped black and white marvel is one of my absolute favorites! Why? Well, not all rompers are created equal, and I won't say most, but definitely some look a bit weird on me. This one, however, happens to pack just enough stretch to hug the body in all the right places:) Fact that it's also cute and comfy, and looks pretty perfect paired with a black crop top, makes it the best one I've ever owned and the one I will never be separated from. Ever!:)
