Zara blouse & pants, 80%20 shoes, Rebecca Minkoff clutch, La Mer Collections watch (most recently seen here), H&M bracelet, Alex & Ani necklace, David Yurman ring, Ray Ban sunnies
I’ve been eager to pair bright, bold separates together ever since color blocking started exploding on the scene (and I was inspired by this post) and figured time spent in sunny, Southern California was the perfect opportunity to go forth and go bold. (P.S.- if you follow me on Twitter you already know this – then wearing this outfit to fly Southwest Airlines north to San Francisco was not a good decision, given the brand’s color scheme… blast!)
I swung by Newport Beach to gaze at the Pacific and soak in the sun before heading North and experienced some of the most peaceful moments I’ve had of recent. These 80%20 shoes weren’t exactly made for strolling the beach, but I absolutely adore them and let me just say, they are the most comfortable wedges I’ve ever owned. Their whole spring 2011 collection is a-mazing, you must check it out. (Yep, I’m on a wedge kick).

LOVE this outfit! I’m a huge fan of orange and blue and especially the stacked bracelets.

I’ve been seeing lots of blogger getting such vibrant pieces from Zara lately. I might have to make a special trip there next week.
I love this outfit because orange paired with blue is one of my favorite color combos. Love the 80%20 wedges too!!
