Sometimes a special day is more fabulous then a gift! Why not treat your special someone to a spa day at Burke Williams followed by a fabulous meal at Blowfish Sushi, Cielo or LB Steak! He or she will LOVE a special day for the two of you on the row. Of course, when you need to put a bow on it. . .

Here are my favorite gift ideas from Santana Row for Valentine’s Day this year:

Tesla

Kendra Scott Slate Grey nail polish review

Pictured: Kendra Scott Slate Grey nail polish

Kendra Scott nail polishes are some of my favorite polishes! This beautiful grey hue named “Slate Grey,” is a fabulous neutral hue which is perfect during any season of the year. My friend Dawn of FashionShouldBeFun.com gave me this bottle for Christmas; she definitely knows what’s hot, and what I like!

Slate Grey by Kendra Scott is extremely easy to wear on a daily basis. This color plays well with the current winter color palette, as well as spring’s incoming hues. It is a nice, medium grey shade which works as the perfect neutral. Love that!

I tested out Kendra Scott Slate Grey nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and no top coat. Like other Kendra Scott polishes, Slate Grey lasted a full week without chipping! It is always a good thing when a five free polish does not chip. So many of them do, but not Kendra Scott! Her five free nail polish collection is as chip resistant as a nail polish could be. Love that!

Kendra Scott Slate Grey nail polish is a great staple for one’s polish collection. You can find Slate Grey by Kendra Scott online here.

How to style a spring skirt in the winter

how to rewear spring clothing in the winterhow to style a spring skirt in the wintergivenchy antigona small black sugarwinter into spring outfit idea winter pastels

Wearing: Kendra Scott earrings / Laura Mercier lipstick / Banana Republic sweater (on sale!!) / long sleeve tee-on sale! (layered under sweater)  / Givenchy handbag / Topshop pleated skirt (I’m wearing petite) / Christian Louboutin nail polish / Bottega Veneta booties / socks hidden in booties

Wondering how to style a spring skirt in the winter months? This is something I find myself doing often. I love spring and summer clothing, so I tend to purchase more clothing during the warm weather seasons then I do during the winter. My two weaknesses during the winter are coats, and jackets! So I find myself reaching for spring or summer items in my closet, and restyling them for the cold winter weather.

I will say this, the San Francisco Bay Area is more mild in the winter months compared to other parts of the country. That being said, our temperatures do go down into the 30’s and 40’s sometimes, so I need to strategically style spring and summer clothing for the winter.

This outfit I have featured in this post I wore to church a couple of weeks ago, and then out to lunch with my family. It is a spring skirt, winter sweater, fall booties, and accessories which transcend seasons. In order to stay warm in the high 40 degree weather, I layered a long sleeve tee underneath the sweater, and I am wearing ankle socks, you cannot see, inside my booties. It worked like a charm!

If temperatures were cooler than they were that day, this outfit could easily be worn with knee or thigh-high boots, thicker socks, and a coat. I think a navy coat such as this one on sale, would be fabulous! Also, if you top it off with this beanie, it would look NYFW, street-style ready. Love!
