The Perfect Linen Dress

On Mal: Lack Of Color Ivory Rancher Hat, Karen Walker Harvest Sunglasses, Gap Denim Jacket, Urban Outfitters UO Amber Button-Down Linen Midi Dress, vintage basket, Zara Gold Strap Sandals (old)

I impulse-bought this dress when Urban had sale on dresses, and I am so glad I did. I love the buttons, the shape is flattering, and the back is elastic so you can have a hefty lunch and not feel pinched!

The Berkeley Art Museum/Pacific Film Archive is moving to this upgraded historic building on Center.  I've loved watching how this building has gone up.  Anyone who is familiar with the original building knows how blah it used to be. As a historic landmark, the main building had to remain intact, but they added this curved metal facade that looks amazing.  It reminds me a bit of the Disney Concert Hall!  

As we were taking these, one of the construction workers came by and mentioned that everyone has been taking photos lately (and suggested that we would get better light if we came by at 10:30 am). So, there is a tip for anyone who wants to take photos here :)

Outfit Repeat

On Whit: American Apparel boxy striped tee, Sparkle and Fade draped skirt (also comes in red!), Choies box clutch, Kate Spade card holder, Ebay sunnies, H&M rings, Michael Kors rose gold watch, Zara heels

This skirt probably looks very familiar to you by now as it's making its third appearance on our blog.  Mal's gray one from Dailylook inspired me to wear mine again.  Sorry for the redundancy, but what can I say?  Mal always inspires me :) 

Two is better than One

So we FINALLY found the time to take pictures together, so we went to the roof to take some pictures. however, most of them came out really embarrassing, since we couldn't stop giggling :)

The title is from Boys like Girls. hehe. what a good song!
