Gingham x Leather

 Dress - Marc by Marc Jacobs | Jacket - Miss Selfridge (similar) | Heels - Madewell (cute alternate here!) | Shades - Banana Republic (love these) | Clutch - J.Crew Factory | Pearls - Graduation Gift, options available here

I scooped up this dress during an online sale a little while ago and had been patiently waiting for the change to wear it out. The style and pink gingham pattern are so feminine and I officially fell in love when I noticed its little details (bow in the back and there's actually a cellphone pocket in the front!).

 Happy MDW, everyone!

PSA: With all the activities on Memorial Day happening, remember to apply sunscreen! I learned my lesson yesterday when I forgot to put some on for a track meet where I sat in the sun all day. Needless to say, I'm pretty pink and sore (as you can see in some of these pictures). I'm taking this experience as a sign I need to invest in a cute sun hat :)

My sisters and I were big gamers growing up: computer, board, video, card games...you name it and we probably played it.

One of our all time favorite games to play was Clue. Every time played we would fight over who would be Ms. Scarlet and the losers of the argument would have to settle for Mrs. Peacock and Mrs. White (because heaven forbid we couldn't be boys! Gross!).

Unfortunately as we grew older we caught on to the strategies and outsmarted the game. While most of our gaming is now reserved for cards during the summer, sitting in this room always makes me think of our whodunnit days. Maybe next time we're all home we will pull out Clue for old times' sake...I call being Ms. Scarlet! ;)
