Black and White….my current obsession both in design and in wear. What do you think of wearing White in November? I said to hey with it and wore the dress to the workshop over the weekend:) Being unconventional is sometimes the best way to make your day a purposeful one.

Also, have you heard of the line Ming Wang? Fell in love with this contrast dress and know it will be put to use often. A little modern art on a dress is right up my alley. There are even little silver beaded details along the side. The sweater material allows you to forget you are even in a dress!

So…What. a. week…..or month really!

Saturday, I got to see a big dream come to fruition in The Brand Market workshop, and it was an exhilerating experience. You can catch some behind the scenes moments on instagram. I can’t wait to share more about it!

While the most exciting work collaborations and opportunities unfold, the fuel for my steam engine is coming to a halt.  Sooo, the next few weeks I am resting, cleaning, hanging with my little ones, and all of the other things that had to be put on hold for days on end. I will keep blogging through the holidays but this year I won’t be doing a gift guide, any major projects, or running any other events. I am hoping to use this time to fuel up for 2014:) My favorite holidays are ahead and I don’t want to miss any of it.

I feel like I am always saying it but REALLY! THANK YOU all for all your love and support. YOU keep me going.

  8. I lived vicariously through the Brand Market Workshop’s Instagrams this weekend, wishing I was there in person! Congratulations on such a fabulous event.

    And as for taking a breather, good for you. Life’s too short to rush through the holidays. We have to take a moment and realize what we are celebrating to begin with!

  9. CUUUTE! Love this look!

  10. Really – didn’t October just fly by?! I’m so excited for your Brand Market Workshop – been following on IG and all the photos look really really amazing! Love these dresses – that black + white one is seriously stunning on you! Hope you enjoyed your weekend!

  14. How on earth did you just have a baby? You look AMAZING!!!!!!

  15. Sanna

    says:

    Love these looks! And you look gorgeous as always 🙂
    I’ve been on the look-out for a good black quilted jacket – how do you like the Sheinside one? Is it true to size? xo

  16. Jenmarie says:

    Well, Rachel Zoe says to wear white year round and since she is the biggest Fashion Stylist there is and always puts her clients in white, then I think you’re good! 😉 Really though, I think that’s an old fashion rule.

    You look so pretty in both dresses!

  17. jen

    says:

    Seriously, all the items in both outfits were given to you! Your blog used to be one of my favorites, but lately it just seems way to “sponsored” and it makes me not want to read. All the sponsored posts and free items doesn’t make it genuine or inspiring to read.

  18. kelsey says:

    gorgeous gorgeous! you look so chic

  19. Kate says:

    Wow, love it! Love both dresses!

  20. Kelli Murray says:

    BABE!!! Black and white forever 🙂

  21. Megan says:

    I am glad you are slowing down, because you are making the rest of us look bad 😉 LOVE YOU

  22. Susan says:

    Love the black and white, a classic and versatile color combination. The first dress is gorgeous especially with the black ankle strap shoes to imitate the stripes and complete the look. Thanks for the daily inspiration Anna.
