Summer Suiting: The Gingham Print Suit

Who said you have to shed your power suits for Summer? For my fellow power suit obsessed (e.g. here, here and here) or those whose work attire requires a jacket for the office, I am dedicated to reinventing and finding refreshing ways to wear suits all seasons. Earlier this Spring, to satiate my desire to…

Trend Alert: Bike Shorts

If wearing leggings beyond the gym weren’t controversial enough, what about their cropped counterpart – the bike short? Since last summer, bike shorts have been a bit of a thing (at least according to fashion girls), but given their likely passing popularity, I wasn’t quite ready to commit to the trend. Fast forward a few…

Power Suits Get Bolder: Blue Double Breasted Pantsuit, Top Handle Prada Bag, YSL Black Cat Eye Sunglasses and Schutz Single Strap Heels

Pant suit season is back and this lady loves serving up some female power vibes. If there is any trend to try this Fall, it’s definitely the pantsuit…and we’re not talking about those dowdy ones that your state legislators or firm partners have been sporting since the mid-90’s without update or tailoring, but POWER PANTSUITS…

Trend Alert: Tie Front Crop Top

The Tie Front Crop Top is the IT GIRL trend item of the Summer … and we all know, I’m not one to pass up a trend. From long sleeves to sleeveless, floral patterned to striped, tie front crop tops come in endless variations, but they are not, I admit, the easiest trend to wear…

Sweet Boho: Frilly Embroidered Top, Faux Suede A-Line Skort, Saint Laurent Sunglasses, GiGi New York White Embossed Python Crossbody and Schutz Pearl Sandals

Nothing says summer like a classic eyelet dress, skirt or top. No longer relegated to grandma’s table and buffet coverings, eyelets have become more of a trend item.  But knowing how to pair and elevate this breathable, lightweight, summer fabric is key to creating a modern, but still playful look. For our last night out…

Diamond Girl: Lace Double-Breasted Blazer, White Culottes, Clear Pumps with Rhinestone Toe, Vintage Ferragamo Envelope Clutch and DE BEERS Diamonds

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. I don’t know about you, but I’m still basking in the glory of knowing a regular American girl just became a princess. #dreamscometrue In celebration of the Royal Wedding, De Beers hosted a private event to introduce their latest bridal collection and I had the pleasure of  trying on…

Unexpected Pairings: Checked Double-Breasted Oversized Blazer, Black Silk Cami, Black Leather Skinnies, Gray Suede Point Toe Pumps, Grey Round Bag and Gold Pendant Earrings

  For a recent Thursday night out for some casual bites and drinks, I wanted to wear something post work appropriate, but with a little edge. After all, Thursday is practically the weekend, and I can’t think of any good reason to hold out on weekend worthy looks for any longer than is necessary. To…

Statement Sleeves: Gingham Off-the-Shoulder Top, Skinny Black Pull-On Jeans, Classic Black Motorcyle Jacket, Point Toe Black Patent Schutz Heels, Gucci Padlock GG Supreme Shoulder Bag and Vintage Accesories

Whether it’s bell sleeves, bishop sleeves, ruffle sleeves, balloon sleeves or some fabulous combination of all of the above, STATEMENT SLEEVES are the trend to get in on. Often overlooked, sleeves are currently in a serious renaissance period and with the Fall 2016 and Spring 2017 runways ushering their evolution, do not expect or allow…

70’s Inspo: Black Cropped Wrap Blouse, High-Rise Bell Bottom Jeans, Fur Collar Biker Jacket, Tassel Earrings and Black Suede Booties

Last Saturday, I was heading out for casual drinks and wanted something trendy, but not overdone.  And lately (as you’ve seen in previous posts), I just can’t get enough of everything 70’s inspired and kept the trend going with this sultry Saturday night look. I often like to build outfits around one special item.  In this case,…
