I have yet to find a skater dress that I don't like and this blue and white number from Charlotte Russe is no exception. Two things I love about skater dresses? They're flattering and feminine. When you have a smaller waist/torso and a larger bottom half (hey, I have hips, okay?), skater dresses complement your figure like no other dress can (which is why I own so many of them, ha!). I've been playing around with the different ways to wear vests and lately I've been stuck on the vest/dress combo. This denim moto vest from Aeropostale helps give my otherwise girly ensemble, just a the right bit of edge - but don't be surprised if you see me wearing it again in a completely different way. I can already see myself pairing it with some printed shorts or skinny jeans for my next look. And the crossbody? I'd call it the perfect summer companion. I hate carrying larger bags because it turns me into the ultimate bag lady - if I can stuff my bag to no end, then I will. A little crossbody helps me minimize and take only what I need. All together, I'd say I'm ready for summer. (Hey, San Francisco, you hear that? Gimme some sun!)

Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. 

pancakeLEFTOVERS: May

I'm a bit behind, but better late than never, no? May was another whirlwind month -- it flew by just as fast as it arrived. If you follow me on Instagram, you've seen a fair portion of my day to day (all the good stuff I fail to share on my blog!). But of course, there are more photos taken than can be shared in a month's time, so that's where the leftovers come in. So what were some of the highlights from the last month? Heading to Napa for BottleRock, Cinco de Mayo, Memorial Day weekend, Giants games, being Lucca Couture's Blogger of the Month, and some pretty cool press (Lucky Magazine, anyone?). June's already pretty amazing thus far, and I doubt that the good stuff is going to slow anytime soon. So before we speed off into the halfway point of the year, let's take a look back at some goofy shots and outtakes from the month before.

It's All In The Details

It's the last day in May - can you believe that? I had every intention of saving this post for Monday, until I realized that it would be June! In any case, this is my last look as Lucca Couture's Blogger of Month! (Quite different from my last look, no?) More and more these days, you can find me in a comfy pair of flats (Soludos are my latest obsession), a baggy tee, and a good pair of jeans. While that all may sound simple, I find that the details more than make an outfit. I love the shredded cross design on this tank - perfect for a concert or a warm sunny day. What I love even more is how easy it is to just put it on and go! I paired it with my distressed boyfriend jeans - aka one of my comfiest pairs of pants ever. I know the guys don't too much fancy gals in boyfriend jeans, but luckily for me, I dress for myself.

Nothing makes me channel my inner girly-girl more than a perfect skirt (or dress). I miss the days when I lived in SoCal and could almost always step out in one of the two. In fact, once I moved back to San Francisco (like three years ago, ha), I had a major problem, because I owned almost no pairs of pants. I'm pretty sure if you click through my archives I've said this exact thing 100 times before. If we're going to get really honest here, it took me basically until last year to embrace pants. 

Though, embrace is probably too strong of a word because sometimes, the sun will come out and all feelings of acceptance for pants goes away. For days like those, I wear skirts like this. Can we talk about how absolutely perfect this High Waist Circle Skirt by Lucca Couture is? I mean on ever single level. From the cut to the color to the shape and the detail - we're talking love, people. L-O-V-E, love. But of course, sometimes the city sun likes to fool you, so smart San Franciscans know to never leave home without a jacket. No matter how sunny it is, you don't let that magical weather cloud your judgement. And what better than a perfect light jacket to pair with the perfect skirt. This BCBGeneration cropped jacket went unexpectedly well with my skirt and once the two came together I knew they were meant to be. Finished off the look with my stylish but comfy Zara heels (which I also have in black, because why not?) and I was ready to conquer the day. 

Love this skirt as much as I do? Then you're in luck! You can get 10% off you're Lucca Couture order from now until June when you enter in the code: PANCAKESTACKER at checkout! Stay tuned for my last Lucca Couture outfit!
