[workwear wednesday] new year inspiration

One of my favorite things to do at the beginning of any new year is to clean out, organize & update my closet. & as I'm about to spend a bit of time on the west coast, in the next few months, now seems like the perfect time to pull a few cohesive patterns & colors for the office.

I recently acquired this beauty & now have sparkle on my mind. To be fair, when is sparkle not on my mind... So, whilst you finish up your last minute holiday shopping I leave you with the images that I'm currently crushing on.

weekend brunching inspiration

What's more fun than a weekend brunch with the girls? Choosing the outfit, of course. Although it's only Tuesday, I'm already mentally sorting through my closet for the perfect fall pieces. If only all of these fabulous looks could make their way into my wardrobe...

november first

Hello, November, my most favorite month of the year. I have been so impatiently waiting for the leaves to change & the weather to drop below 60 so I can properly transition my wardrobe. I love this limbo we're in [somewhere between fall & winter]. A little too cold for ripped jeans but just warm enough to keep my cozy winter gloves at bay.

regularly scheduled programming

There has been a lot of new-ness over here within the past few weeks: a new pup, a new job, & a new apartment. To add to the list, I've been toying with the idea of a new post format & content which you may have witnessed in the recent weeks. & while this new-ness & change in life has been wonderful & welcomed, not all change is good. So, my dearest readers, starting tomorrow we are going back to regularly scheduled programming blogging // beginning with a [friday favorites]. Can I get a "heck yes!"? Thank you for all of your support, constructive feedback, & for continuing to visit District Sparkle!

As for today, I'm leaving you with a little home decor inspiration. For snapshots of the new place be sure to follow along on Instagram.

I mean...obviously. The jewels, the shoes, the killer vests she's recently been sporting? Get out. & leave everything that is currently in your closet. Pretty please with Louboutins on top.
