If you are local to the San Francisco Bay Area, you may be aware that a new JCrew Factory Store has opened up at Westgate Mall in the West San Jose area of the South Bay. If you are unaware, let me just tell you, it is amazing! 

JCrew is a fabulous destination for Fashionistas living in Silicon Valley. The company’s style offers casual and corporate casual looks which are ideal for our lifestyle here in Northern California. Everything inside the JCrew Factory Store at Westgate Shopping Center is perfect for the office and for casual weekends. Love that!

When I found out a new JCrew Factory Store opened at Westgate Shopping Center, I was thrilled! Westgate is a shopping center I shop at multiple times per week. The mall includes a Target, Nordstrom Rack, Michael’s, Smashburger, Sushi Boat and more! My kids love shopping at Justice and having lunch at Sushi Boat; it is a frequent event! I am really excited to add JCrew Factory Store to our frequent shopping excursions at Westgate. It fits perfectly into my personal style!

The store is filled with spring merchandise as well as good items for transitioning from winter into spring here in the Bay Area. I loved the puffer vests on display in the back of the store which are perfect for transitioning from winter into spring. There was also a huge selection of necklaces and shoes which will take any outfit from ordinary to extraordinary!

I found myself reaching for nautical inspired looks which I know will be perfect to wear this spring. I loved everything I tried on and cannot wait to show you what I came home with! Stay tuned for an upcoming outfit post with the look I found at the JCrew Factory Store at Westgate Shopping Center! My daughter loved the store too, she came home with a headband!

Don’t forget to pop into the new JCrew Factory Store at Westgate Shopping Center to see all the fabulous looks they have to wear now and into spring! Happy shopping, and stay fabulous 😉

If you have been reading my blog for awhile, you may already know that blue is my favorite color. This is a huge reason why I am so excited for the spring 2015 season! Designers and brands are showing multiple shades of blue; shown together and separate. Love that!

If you took a look at my closet, you would see a lot of blue and black with touches of purple and green thrown in for variety. These are the colors I am drawn towards no matter what the seasonal color wheel dictates. This dress is the perfect cobalt blue and I love how it looks with my slightly darker cobalt heels. This will definitely be a go-to look for me this spring and summer!

Which color or colors do you find yourself drawn to season after season? Are there any colors this spring 2015 season you find yourself drawn to?


Dolce & Gabbana Pearl Shimmer nail polish for spring 2015 review

Pictured: c/o Dolce & Gabbana “Pearl Shimmer 805” nail polish for spring 2015. Two coats of color, one base coat, no top coat. Photo taken in bright, overcast weather during morning golden hour.

Dolce & Gabbana Pearl Shimmer nail polish for spring 2015 is a beautiful, vibrant shade of silver. The color offers high saturation while providing a neutral backdrop for any spring wardrobe. Love that!

Metallics are a huge trend in nails for the spring 2015 season, so Dolce & Gabbana’s Pearl Shimmer nail polish is an ideal nail polish for the upcoming warm weather months. Like other nail polish by Dolce & Gabbana, it was long-lasting, and remained chip-free for eight days! Love that!

Pearl Shimmer nail polish by Dolce & Gabbana is a new color for the spring 2015 season. It can be found exclusively online here.
