Welcome to Ahead of I Head Out, a monthly series in which style editor Anneliese Dominguez rounds up the snaps she’s taken of her beloved outfits right before heading out the doorway of her Los Angeles condominium.

If you know me, you know I have a slight—okay, major—obsession with denims. I’m consistently including new pairs to my collection (this pair from Khaite officially owns my heart) and undoubtedly have on them far more than everything else in my closet. In simple fact, my school roommate as soon as located me napping in our dorm with jeans on, and she’s designed exciting of me at any time since. So in an exertion to department out this month, I challenged myself to go away the house in all the things but denims as usually as I could. I didn’t ditch them altogether (I could never—they are a yr-round trend-man or woman staple), but I did make a aware exertion to split out of my comfort zone and choose for outfits sans jeans. The final result? Oh, no massive deal, just some ridiculously cute ‘fits starring pink satin midis, a pair of trousers that could develop into my new go-to (gasp!), a denim maxi skirt that is been creating its way into editors’ hearts from coast to coast, and much more.
