Obsession: Monograms

Like any good Southern girl, I like monograms.

After my mom and Nana bought my daughter an adorable monogram dress, I have recently become obsessed with them.


Sophia Floriana Tapper


I love the classy, soigne, feeling that wearing or displaying monograms gives off. People are using monograms for parties, weddings, throughout their home. Check out some of these amazing ideas.

If I Were a Millionare....

I'm hoping one day I'm a billionaire or even a millionaire would be okay, and I can have all of these things. Until then I'll just wish on a star and wait at the top of my castel.

One time in my life I want to buy a Chanel bag

Dear D. Yurman, your stuff is so over priced and I still want it

Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, I really really want you.

Rachael's Wearing: Stripes in the City

It's a million degrees in DC today, and the humidity is about two million percent. As much as I hate the ocean I would love to be on a boat right now sailing with the ocean breeze in my hair. Ahhhh....

Instead I'm stuck trudging around this hot city, oh I love DC.

Dress {Current Boutique H&M} Shoes {Eva & Zoe}
Purple Watch {LouLous Boutique} Handbag {Gucci}
Necklace {JCrew} Sunglasses {Betsy Johnson}

I know, I know my handbag really doesn't match with the outfit - BUT I really needed a massive handbag today and was in a huge rush. So I'm sure you can forgive me this once. 

This dress is so super comfy and I love wearing it. Probably would have felt more comfortable had I not stuffed my face with Chipolte for lunch, but oh well. 

Cute little sailor detail on the dress, little gold buttons

My mom gave me this necklace a while back. I love the pop of color this outfit totally needs. Its fun and I don't get to wear it much because my daughter thinks its candy and tries to eat it. 
Sorry about the up the nose shot, had to get a close up of this necklace myself!
Whats everyone doing this weekend? I am taking my daughter to a "Princess" Themed birthday party tomorrow and then going to a friends rooftop in Arlington Sunday for a pool party. Hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend!

Rachael's Wearing : Anthropologie @ the Bar

So forgive this picture, I had to have my husband take this picture and well he wasn't very enthusiastic about it to say the least.

Tank {H&M} Skirt {Anthropologie}
Bangle {Gifted} Shoes {H&M}
I loove this army green skirt! I wrote about a sale at Anthropolgie sale I went to a couple weeks ago and this was my amazing sale purchase. The roped belt makes my waist appear smaller and the fuller bottom hits at a perfect length - right above the knee. This black tank is a cheap must have for me. Probably cost $5 and its easy to put in the wash and go. The black open toe sling backs are actually very uncomfortable but were good for days like today where I'm not walking all over town.

I had a crazy busy day in which I felt like I was on hold for most of it. I'm am currently working with a client that asked me to do something a little different than what I usually do, so I got to take a fun trip to target. There I found something that I MUST have:

MUST HAVE.
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to do my own DIY with a sewing machine. I used to have one years ago but this year for my birthday I'm determine to get this (ehem - Husband, I need this).
