You might see the title of this post and think red and pink? Together? Outside of February or a Valentine’s Day card? I say absolutely! It’s a bright and fun combo that doesn’t clash, but complements each other adding more power, femininity and boldness than almost any other color couple. Go ahead, give it a...

emerald city
Everywhere I look these days I see shades of emerald green. From the catwalk to the sidewalk to the office, it’s in seeping into every level of dress and an assortment of styles. From the runway… Source: bridefinds.com via Jami on Pinterest …to a ‘City’ gal to Kate Middleton. (You should definitely strive for the...

India Hicks at the b.!
She’s baaack! India Hicks is back at the beach armed with a fabulous trunk show my eyes can’t wait to devour. India is launching a fine jewelry line and is showing it off to all of us lucky beach girls (and guys) before it even hits Bloomingdales. Location: the equally-fabulous studio b. in Alys Beach,...

Pantone Color Inspiration
In my dreams, I’m at a fashion show in one of the big tents watching gorgeous models walk gracefully up and down the runway, and I’m mesmerized but furiously making mental notes about colors, trends and styles I see. Since that is only happening in my head, I like to review Pantone’s Fashion Color Report...

sailor chic
I’ve officially joined the rest of the world and am quickly becoming addicted to pinning. It’s possibly the greatest thing since slice-and-bake cookies (or however the saying goes). My pin selections really show certain style preferences and I seem to have an overflowing amount of nautical-inspired pins. I’m loving this classic navy blue and white...

totally tibi
It probably has a lot to do with the fact that I can wear none of these right now without resembling a circus tent, but these tibi looks have me daydreaming about shopping for normal size clothes again. The weather is warm, sunny and begging for new spring outfits. I love the white and blush...

classics checklist
I’m loving this list from the new online magazine Matchbook. It’s pretty fab all the way around. I’ve already checked off the items stashed in my closet — even if I can’t fit all of them around this baby bump right now. The weather at the beach has been gorgeous so far this weekend and...

stripes in the city of angels
I’ve always been drawn to the preppy chic looks of J. Crew, but for some reason pregnancy has intensified that crush to a minor obsession. I’ll even admit that I’m just as guilty of being obsessed with the Hollywood lifestyle and all that it includes. That means this new catalog spread makes me one happy...

Candy-Colored Heels
As much as I love all things black and white, I decided early on that I wanted all the bridesmaids to wear fun and fabulous shoes for the wedding. I had bright jewel tones in mind for a nice pop against their black dresses, so I set out to see what my options were online...

The Bridesmaid Dress
The first bridesmaid dress has arrived! My friend (and BM) Danielle just got hers in today and I can’t wait to see how they all look together. It took a little searching and lots of browsing to find just what I was looking for. Since the wedding will be in July and the heat factor...

Stars in Stripes
There’s something about the widening power of stripes that keeps people from sporting them, but they can be super cute when worn with a little fashion flair. It’s smarter to keep the stripes small and just as easy to dress them up with a skirt and heels as it is to dress them down with...

Wedding Shoe Shopping
Since almost everything in, about or related to the wedding in any way is black or white, I feel like black shoes are really the only choice to compliment my white dress. I’m still looking for the perfect pair, but I want them to be fun, flirty and not too uptight. These Badgley Mischka’s are...

Fabulous Rain Choos
It’s raining and it’s pouring here at the beach! We’ve got a torrential downpour on our hands, people. How in the world are you supposed to look cute and presentable when you’re soaked as soon as you leave the safety of your house or car? I’m not sure it’s really possible. My first step is...

Purple Boots Are Made for Walking….
Well, booties, to be exact. I love these suede purple booties added to a black and white outfit. They’re a fun kick of color and are actually really comfortable, too! The price tag is even better. I found these online awhile back in Lela Rose’s special line of shoes here. The “kids these days” like...

Silky Purple Power
I think I might be in a winter rut. All my pants, coats, tights and boots are all starting to look the same and I feel like the Michelin man every time I leave the house. This isn’t supposed to happen at the beach! With all the black, grey, black, brown, black and navy I’ve...
