Spring 2012: Still Stripes

The Scene

Last month, Jean Bean and Texas Cowboy FINALLY came to my bosom for a whirlwind L.A. visit.

On their last day, we took them to Bottega Louie for brunch

And USC for an old alum visit.

We reminisced about football games and volleyball classes

Marveled at the new student center and bemoaned not having a gastropub in our day.

Coveted elevator buttons. Yes, elevator buttons.

Peeped Ronald McDonald alumni wear

And slutty hot chick student barely there

We nearly broke a hip checking out a part of the bookstore that didn't exist when we were students.

We old. Thank god we cute!

The Outfit

The Commentary

Have practically lived in these jeans this summer.

Paired them with a summer knit top from F21. Isn't super flattering because of that blousy shape but I love the color combo. But it was like 14 dolla.

Added the arm party inspired by Man Repeller. And the fun purse to pick up the pink and the texture of the top.

Cherry on top: the hat. Mr. D loves the hat.

Happy the stripes will still be big next Spring. Here they are at Peter Som SS 2012

And Derek Lam's new lower priced line 10 Crosby---LOVING IT!
