If you’re on the verge of spring fever like I am, the idea of putting on a fifth layer of clothing to brave the cold is far less appealing than stepping out in the hot sun wearing a fabulous warm-weather outfit. Style.com lists a few must-haves gathered from stores like Barney’s, Bergdorf, Net-a-porter and more....
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...
Catt Keeps it Cool, Classic & Cute
I see fashion inspiration all over the place — in magazines, on tv, and from clothes real people wear. I love Catt Sadler’s outfit from tonight’s Daily 10! She balanced a tan suede H&M skirt with a classic nautical striped shirt, also from H&M. The tan Steve Madden booties blend with her legs and make...
Watercolor Florals
Sure, it’s the dead of winter and flowers in bloom are typically few and far between. They’re waiting patiently for not-so-freezing temps … until now. I say, “Why save those sweet floral prints until spring when I can enjoy them right now?” The prints this year are soft and blurry like watercolor paintings, but still...
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...
Blair’s Black & White Blouse is Bliss
I don’t think I can ever get enough black & white. It’s the definition of classic and can be done in endless combinations, prints and styles. Gossip Girl’s Blair Waldorf always dresses so ladylike and this outfit is no exception. This top could be recycled for years and still be fresh each time. Blouses have...
Black Friday Shopping
I hope everyone had a fabulous and relaxing Thanksgiving! Mine was just that and involved quality time with the family, a little travel and more dressing and 10-layer chocolate cake than it should have. I didn’t get up early to brave the chaotic crowds, but I’ve definitely been scoping out my fair share of deals...
Jewel Tones Galore!
Tis the season for jewel tones, and it seems if one is good, two is better, and three or more is fabulous! If you like garnets, emeralds, amethysts, sapphires, rubies and the like, this is time to pile them on, mixing and matching a few colors together. Take note from Natalie Portman at the Brothers...
Soho Window Shopping
What I mean is Soho window shopping, as in the store Soho at Gulf Place, not the area South of Houston in New York. (Though I’ll be there soon enough!) It’s always fun to see window displays and browse the latest styles and additions. Here’s the current view of Soho’s window, with the beginning of...
Rachel Roy Resort is Totally Rad
I always like browsing the collections on style.com when I have time because it’s always so interesting to see the different ideas designers have and the personality that clothes can show off. When I came across Rachel Roy’s Resort 2010, I had an instant crush. Her style is always so lady-like and lovely, but this...
Sheer Fashion
I’ve been noticing more and more sheer fabrics lately around the neckline. At first, I wasn’t a fan, but now it’s growing on me. It’s a ladylike way to wear a more revealing top and still be somewhat covered up. Just think of it as sophisticated ice skater apparel without the glitter, sequins or hideous...
Mix and Match Fashion
If the new fashions on the upcoming season of Gossip Girl are any indication, the rest of this year (at least) will be all about mixing and matching. Check out all the different looks here: brights mixed with brights, sporty mixed with dressy, brown and black together (it’s true!), multiple textures and much heavier necklaces....
Thandie Newton’s Pretty Silk Dress
Oh, wouldn’t it be nice to have a few celebrity perks every once in awhile? I’m sure I could handle wearing fabulous fashions before they’re even available to the rest of the world, especially if they were as pretty as this silky Matthew Williamson dress Thandie Newton is showing off. It’s from the pre-Spring 2010...
Gossip Girl Headband Watch
Yes, I’m still watching Gossip Girl episodes! I can’t get enough of all the fun fashions, as much of a guilty pleasure it might be. My favorite was Blair’s retro cool look here. I want it all, but I especially love the dress and necklace combo. Classic but fresh. Alberta Ferretti dress: similar style, $386;...
