The Tailored Tunic

On Sunday the weather was wonderful and toasty. Mother nature really gave us an amazing Memorial Day weekend in the Bay. Not only was the weather exciting, but I went to see SATC 2 with my girls. As usual I tired to pay tribute to Carrie with her wild wavy hair, monogram earrings and a boho styled dress. I love this tunic dress by Tolani. It is so light weight and the colors are great with a sun-kissed tan.
During the summer I wear tunics all the time. They are essential. Try them with skinny jeans, leggings or as a beach cover up. You can't go wrong!

Wow I adore this outfit. I most jealous of the hair I could not create but wow such a great carrie look! That dress is fabulous, it reminds me of a picture of mom from
the 70's wearing a dress with a similarcolor scheme. Great look Taylor! And thank you for your sweet thoughts on my blog xoxo

What an incredible dress! I've been so inspired by your outfits lately - each one is even better than the last!

I have a bit of a strange question for you: I absolutely love your blog and your style, so I'm hoping that you'd be interested in writing a guest post while I'm on vacation later this month. I completely understand if you're too busy, though! (Details here: http://style-obsession.blogspot.com/2010/06/help-wanted.html)

Cutest Carrie outfit ever!

I tired for Carrie hair. I kept pulling my curls apart and trying to frizz them out, and it wouldn't stay. Just kept falling flat. I'm jealous.

PS Each time I see your pics it makes me pissed that I need to get into the salon asap to get my highlights done! Yikes.

You look great!
