B Inspired: Funny Face loafers

When I'm not feeling well and Audrey Hepburn is my go-to. While fighting a cold ti was recently Funny Face that turned my day around and sparked my need for a new pair of loafers. I have studded and leopard but I'm feeling like one more to add is necessary.

B Craving: Orange accents

I was a bit disappointed in Oscar fashion last night. I was hoping for some bright pops of colors but muted colors seemed to be the trend. Around my birthday in January I saw myself wanting everything with orange. Bright and bold enough to make a splash but not as expected as pink. What color are you craving?

1. J Crew beaded rose necklace
2. MM6 Maison Martin Margiela two tone wedge sandal
3. T. Babaton Bradley pant
4. Bliss blood orange + white pepper sugar scrub
5. Madewell polka dot scarf

Is it just me or did this week go by fast? I'm in Portland for the day for quick work trip and strategically planning how I can sneak in tax free shopping. If I can't make it there are always these treats that cheered me up this week and have an underlining "I want Spring" theme if you can't tell.

ONE // Neon heels from Prabal Gurung for Target are asking for us to go boot free soon.

TWO // Tan towels have become by go-to for quick color during the week. For the winter, I keep to the half towels as there isn't too much leg being shown.

THREE // Homemade girl scout cookies are on my baking list this weekend. I've been craving a box but haven't been able to track down those girls yet and this recipe looks like the next best thing.

FOUR // Statement studs are the new statement necklace. J crew and Bauble Bar have great choices that will be hanging from my ear lobes any day now.

FIVE // Laptop sleeve is simple and chic for working on the go. In and out of different bags, this Kate Spade sleeve protects my Macbook air without adding bulk!

B Wanted: Leather tote

We've seen them anywhere and everywhere. Different versions of a coveted celine leather tote yet I  haven't come across one that made me squeal. This mint leather tote comes real close and just jumped to the front of my "must have" line. It's only $120 and from Gap, yes Gap! I'll see you this weekend pretty.

B Served: Tea for B

It's been 12 days since I've had coffee. 18 if you don't count the decaf cappuccino I couldn't say no to. I have no decided factor on the health benefits for either or but somehow I'm on a tea kick. Maybe it's the cute electric water kettle on my kitchen counter or the realization that there's hundreds of flavors. With any newest addiction I am sure enjoying all the cute accessories. What's your favorite tea to drink?

one // Tea mug with infuser
two // twisting tea ball
three // honey dipper
four // blue hill honey
five // krups silver art kettle
six // fortnum & mason classic teas

P.S. I'm guest blogging for Cassandra of Coco + Kelley today. Go here to see my latest dream vacation!

B Staple: Neutral wedge

It's no where near spring in Seattle. But retailers are saying differently so I've found myself starting to build my Spring wardrobe for that small chance of a day over 70. I've loved that the neutral has still involved metallic but not over bearing the whole shoe. These are three shoes I'll have a hard time deciding between.

1. Cole Haan 2. Rebecca Minkoff 3. Diane Von Furstenberg

B Favors

Another week, another list of favorites.

ONE | SUPERFEET: Introducing the best thing to happen to your feet since heated slippers. I've been known to wear the wrong shoes all sorts of places. These insoles work in the smallest of flats, with only taking up half of your shoe they will fit all sizes and give you support! Sold at Nordstrom or online.

TWO | JEWELRY UNDER $10: I go through most jewelry like I do with shampoo. Wear it out then it's time to switch it up to something different. I've been impressed with the collections I've found via Asos, Forever 21 and BaubleBar.com, all places I go for best priced jewels!

THREE | WORKOUT HEADGEAR: Admittedly, I get sweaty during my workouts. Esspecially during a tough spin class and rarely have the time to fix my hair mid uphill push. The Lululemon Bang Buster headband is the best to keep sweat out of my face while staying snug on my head without being too tight.

FOUR | DESTROYED DENIM: My latest denim go-to. Pair with preppy sweater and formal shoes it's effortless.

FIVE | RUBBER STAMPS: Here's something new about me: I collected rubber stamps as a child. I was a craft freak (now you get why I love DIYs) and begged my parents to buy me a new stamp every trip to the craft store. I love these custom monogram stamps from Ampersandity on Etsy. Ordering these ASAP.
