Weekend Wear … and the Side Door

By Tamera Beardsley @tamerabeardsley

Our Friday night date night found us at the Side Door in Corona Del Mar.
Feeling inspired for falland over my summer wardrobe to be sureI pulled out my black maxi and leather jacket.

Pairing them with my favorite fashion piece right nowan ankle boot!I find this fresh boot can add an instant update to any ensembleespecially when paired with my Iris inspiredTom Ford spectaclesand my hand woven clutch
from Oaxaca Mexico.

To finish of my ensemble perfectlyI wore my four strand wrapped pearl necklacefrom Tamera Beardsley Design.

Oh the power of some well chosen accessories not only to complete a look
but to upgrade inexpensive wardrobe pieces!
Both my dress and jacket are from Target!
But paired with high end accessories
the whole ensemble looks upscale!


For our date night Jeff and I had Ellis and Elliot meet us at the Side Doorjust off of the  Five Crowns restaurant.

The first time Jeff and I went into the Side Doorwe knew we wanted to bring Ellis and Elliot backbecause it reminded us so of when the four of us met up in Londonand they played tour guides for usbefore we all flew back to Torinowhere Ellis and her boyfriend were studying abroad.

Drinks were ordered all around in Friday night celebrationof our double date here in SoCal!

My favorite part …definitelythe cheese and charcuterie station!

Its always a favorite of mine to go out and try new cheeses and pairings!

And it's simply perfect when the company is so great!

As always my friends
I wish you love and joyas you style your life
