Among all the fun coffee dates I’ve had within the blogging community, my recent meetup with the sisters behind style blog, Turtle & Leaf, was definitely memorable. From chatting about a year spent abroad in Japan to sharing our love of sunny Southern California, these Orange County girls are not only creative (they just started they’re amazing blog in January!) but incredibly dedicated students and working women. I asked the girls to share a little taste of their content with you, and needless to say, they always leave me with an insane urge to go through a closet cleanse ;) Don’t forget to say hello on their FB page – and enjoy!

The end of summer means back to school for many and one of mine and B’s favorite Fall trends is stripes. Classic, simple and fun, it is a timeless print that every woman should have in her closet. Here are some my favorite ways to wear them:
Stripes and bold colors
Because stripes are such a classic look, pairing it with bold colors such as this true red is a smart choice.
Bardot crop top | Striped skirt | Yves Saint Laurent high heels | Stila eyeliner
Stripes and floral prints
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, you CAN mix prints without looking like you were dressed in the dark. I love the printed pants trend I’ve been seeing lately and paired with a thin striped top, it’s a match made in heaven.
Maison Martin Margiela striped top | Current/Elliott jeans | Chloé braided flat sandal Reed Krakoff leather tote bag
Enjoy your back to school shopping (even if you’re like us and not in school, you can still take advantage of the sales)! What style are you loving today?
