Join the Club

ClubMonaco copy.jpg

I have an event this week that I need to wear all white to. I went to Bloomies and Nordstrom and struck out. I popped into Club Monaco, and they had so many choices it was hard to decide. This is what I found.

  1. Long Sleeve Jorel Top $168 I got this top because it’s so easy to wear. You can dress it up or down. I will be dressing it up with the all white pants (#8 above) for my luncheon.
  2. Pallayy Dress $195 – I’m always drawn to tassels or fringe maybe because it reminds me of vacation. This dress is short but loose fitting great for warm summers days.
  3. Rheah Jumpsuit $248 Whenever I’m looking for a jumpsuit I hit Club Monaco. They always have several to choose from. I love the front tie, and the wide cropped leg on this jumper.
  4. Amelee Pant $168 I thought these were so cute but couldn’t try them on because they were sold out in my size at the store. They have plenty in stock on-line. I love the blue and white stripe and the cut.
  5. Leredey Dress $228 This silhouette is simple and elegant.
  6. Sannah Jumpsuit $269.50 Modern clean line jumpsuit in white.
  7. Ohnay Top $175 This top is light weight and airy. I love the bright red embroidery and tassels.
  8.  Magnus Pant $148 These pants are stretchy, cropped, and have a kicked flare. The back pant leg has a seam down the middle of each leg which creates a slimming silhouette. They run a little big so I would size down. They are so comfortable! I got them in white but will be ordering the black as well.

@ Zara Right Now

Zara.jpg

I had a couple hours to burn at Century City so I decided to take on Zara. It can be overwhelming but it was worthwhile in the end. Here’s what I found.

  1. White Embroidered Top I like this feminine top mixed with a masculine bottom like army pants or ripped jeans.
  2. Authentic Denim Mini Skirt As the weather warms up we need an alternative to jeans and this fits the bill.
  3. Short Ruffled Dress This is an off the shoulder organic cotton dress. The fabric is light weight which is great for those warm summer days.
  4. Blue Embroidered Top This Zara top has the Vita Kin look for a lot less. It runs big so make sure to size down. I bought the x-small.
  5. Z1975 Jeans with Side Stripes I tired these on and was surprised at how well they fit. They are slim fitting, have stripe detailing, and a frayed hem.
  6. Sweater with Crochet Sleeves This is a 100% cotton crochet top. It runs small so size up I got the large.
  7. Leather Crossover Sandal These have the Hermes & YSL feel but for a lot less.
