this is my attempt to sneak some really good nutrition into a noodle bowl. it takes a bit of effort to cut the kale into ribbons, but you could easily just rough chop it if you weren’t in the mood for slicing and if you did that the dish would come together in the time it takes to cook noodles! hope you love! xx- sarah
happy monday everyone! things have been a little bit hectic around here, so my posts are kind of all over the place. but i’m thinking may is going to be a new beast, with more time for me to spend in the kitchen and putting together fun posts for you. thanks for hanging in there with me! now, let’s discuss these slouchy kelly wearstler pants. i’m a smitten kitten. the pattern, fit and color are all great, but the thing that wins it for me is i basically spend the day feeling like i’m in pajamas! you know how much i love that….as 50 would say, like a fat kid loves cake! xx- sarah {more after the jump}

i took my vegan leather pants out for one last spin before the weather here gets too hot to even think about pulling them on! and since i feel especially badass in pleather (so wrong but so right), i paired them with with camo jacket and then added the sparkly shoes to bring in some femininity. my love/hate relationship with pleather is slowing turning into a love affair! {more after the jump}

this isn’t so much a recipe as a suggestion because it’s so simple. it’s also something i eat every single day. i’m a creature of habit and when i find something i love i usually eat it non stop until the day comes when the idea of it turns my stomach. i expect i’ll be eating one of these a day at least through august. the perfect light and healthy meal for midday. and, the secret ingredient gives it just the kick i need to fully satisfy. {more after the jump, including an animation!}
if you’re looking to make your legs look like they go on for a million miles, a nude platform stiletto like these ones will do the trick! and as you can see, the shopbop sale i mentioned last week treated me well, i snatched up some essentials like this perfectly slouchy alexander wang tank and mercedes salazar hammered friendship cuff, both of which i will be wearing nonstop all summer long.

today’s ask sarah question came from my friend lucy, an australian living in germany who is just about as entertaining and fun as they come. i adore her! so, here we go….
QUESTION: I am going to a wedding in Bali in October, I need a dress – and I have no idea what’s good. The reason I am stumped is that it will be tropical, like humid/ hot – and you just can’t do silky numbers in those conditions. I know you love shopping, and vicariously is good for your wallet. Got any good recommendations? Holla. Your mate, Lucy
ANSWER: oh darling lucy, i do love shopping for other people. you know me well! here’s what I rounded up for you. three looks, all perfectly suited to the tropics ( i do not worry about silky dresses so long as they’re sleeveless!) when i think about bali i think of bright colors, palm trees and warm breezes. and weddings are the perfect excuse to look your most fabulous. without further ado…
this is my first option for you. the shoes are an investment (but also really versatile so can be worn for years to come) and the rest is all very wallet friendly. i’d wear this with hair down in loose waves and a bright coral lip (like this). the blue would make your eyes pop, the dress would flatter your curves, the shoes would give you some height/length and you’d look perfectly, effortlessly, tropical-lucy fabulous.

next up we’ve got a mara hoffman number. because no one does pattern better, do they? and bright colors, pattern, and a super mini SCREAM bali. i’d wear that topshop bracelet on my forearm, and then a chunky gold watch and a couple of bangles on the other arm (similar to these but i’d pick them up at forever 21 or claire’s). again with this i see you in loose, beachy waves and a bright lip (hot pink!)

and lastly, if you’re looking for length, there’s this neutral and neon number. which i can totally picture blowing in the tropical breeze and looking killer with your tan. ugh, this is making me so jealous! i’d bust out the hot pink lipstick for this and add in a forearm cuff as well (in my dream world, this one but in real life i’d probably go with the topshot bracelet in look one). allrightthen lucy, happy wedding in bali, you have enough fun to make up for all of us who aren’t so fortunate to have friends getting married in the tropics this year. enjoy every minute of it! xx- sarah
