Yep, I was in shorts one day and then rainboots the next. One thing some of you may know is that I loooove the rain! I'm pretty much obsessed with it and anytime there's even the slightest chance of rainfall {even 10%} I get very giddy! Such is the story of Saturday. When I saw it drizzling outside my bedroom window I quickly planned on wearing my rainboots that I got three years ago and have worn a sad amount of times. Of course within a couple hours the skies were clear and I just looked like the biggest fool for traipsing around in galoshes. Oh well, you win some you lose some.

I'm of the mindset that it's never too early or too late to wear sequins. Sequins really aren't just for holiday. They're also for helping perk up what was supposed to be a gray day, and then eventually blinding Matthew in the car on a sunny one!
Happy Thursday!

I have always wanted Hunter Boots- they are like my white whale of fashion. They make your legs look a mile long. So lovely!
ReplyDeleteHappy rainy days to you!
Love the sequins!
ReplyDeleteOnly you could pull of sequins so nonchalantly! :3

I LOVE the rain too. I think it comes from growing up in Cali and it being such a rare thing. I thoroughly enjoy living in the South where it rains quite a bit. If only it didn't do such terrible things to my hair...
ReplyDeleteLoving the "oomph" the sequins give to this outfit!

I LOVE how you styled that beautiful sequin top - it makes for such an amazing casual & totally chic look. And rain you say?! I do love it too, but I must admit we get way too much of it here in Vancouver ...like sometimes it rains for two weeks straight. I'd love to steal all of your sunshine. ;)
ReplyDeleteVery cute outfit ;)
ReplyDeleteWeather has been so weird these past few days in LA but loving that sunshine right now!
♥always,

Just discovered your blog and I've fallen head over heels in love with it! I love your layering, and that sequin jacket is stunning!

I've been debating on whether I should buy Hunter rain boots for a long time now but have never taken the plunge. I just don't know how I feel about the price tag they have for well...rubber boots. :(

Gorgeous, as always. This is so up my alley. Wearing something dressy in a casual way. Love it!
ReplyDeleteLove your Hunter boots! Actually, I love your entire look! www.casualglamorous.com
ReplyDeleteI love it! I like rain too--especially now that I have Hunters. Mine are yellow & I get a LOT of stares, but they definitely brighten up gloomy days!
ReplyDeleteLove the sequins too--I only can imagine how blinding they would be in the sun!
Love, Leigh

ReplyDeletewhat is it pu-lease

I love rain too, which is why I LOVE living in Seattle. PS I'm in the same mindset, there is no limit on sequins. we all need a little more sparkle.

Hi Jessica and Laura! My nailpolish is a tiny little ORLY bottle that I got from Planet Beauty. Unfortunately there's not a name on it but the numbers on the bottom are: 0121110. I'm sorry there isn't a name :( I got it recently though so hopefully you can find it in a beauty supply store!
ReplyDeleteThis has inspired me to have more sequins in my life--they will perfect to brighten up these grey months.
ReplyDeleteAnd I really need to get some wellies for walking instead of covering my lovely leather boots in mud.
I love how you've dressed down sequins!
ReplyDeleteas usual you make it look effortless Mara, you gorgeous girl!
ReplyDeleteI love that your Hunters are a little roughed up. All the better!
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit & Ive always wanted a pair of hunter wellies:)
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous of the fact that you have a 'lack' of rain where you live!!! I would most definatly swap ... it makes life that much more difficult when it is wet all the time!! Thinking about it, I really should invest in a pair of hunters ;)
That's such a perfect outfit, I swear! You pull it off really well.
