Good afternoon, Friday. I'm happy to see you.
So I was in Zara the other day and if you are one of the few women that can look great in their clothes, congratulations, and well played. I myself seem to have a wriggly wrestling match every time I try anything on there. It almost never works but it sure is nice to look at.
I was particularly smitten with the great pieces in that lovely blue cornflower hue, and how it was all styled with brown suede and leather to give it that 70s vibe that is trending so hard right now. I love blue and brown together- it's earth and sky (or sea) all at the same time, and they complement each other so nicely. Lovely look for Spring and Summer.
And as I paged through some sites this am, I came across this fabulous story on Bazaar.com, shot by Miguel Reveriego. Set against the gorgeous setting of the La Quinta Resort near Palm Springs, it perfectly captures that essence I scoped out at Zara in midtown Manhattan. A very far cry from Palm Springs for sure, but they always get it right when it comes to what's trending and what feels so very right now.
Here are a few pieces I pulled from their website (which now has a lovely search feature to play with) that I saw in store and was loving. A personal favorite is that low v tunic and wide leg jeans. So chic. Oh and if you really want to take things up a notch- some turquoise to keep things feeling hippie glam. I pulled this photo below from the Tiffany website. Gorgeous. Turq is so lovely.Doesn't it just make you happy?
And as the weekend approaches and this week found me feeling somewhat untethered, a healthy dose of earth and sky sounds just about right. I was inspired by those two hues together, hope you are too. Have a wonderful weekend. Cause that's what's up this brown and blue Friday in the 212. Yours, in two great shades, plus a little turquoise for good vibes. XO
