Hello friends! Hope you enjoyed the weekend. This week, our fashion focus is on pieces we consider to be wardrobe staples…which means they last for many seasons. These styles are versatile, and easy so you will wear for a variety of occasions.

The Knit Blazer

Jackets are one of the quickest and easiest ways to create a polished appearance. You can dress them up if you want to be dressier or wear them with denim for a more casual vibe. This soft knit blazer in the almost-navy color is perfect for Spring. You can wear this jacket with a number of colors…black, white and a variety of bright and pastel colors. It would also would look great over a dress. With jackets, I expect a bit more from them and want them to last so I tend to spend a bit more than I do on tops or dresses. I take good care of my jackets and have had some for over 5 years and wear as often as once a week! Available at www.neimanmarcus.com.

A New Party Top

For those impromptu moments when your husband wants to grab a cocktail or your girlfriend wants to have dinner, it is nice to have a pretty top to throw on. This beautiful silk top from Joie is an excellent choice that will transition between the winter and spring seasons. I styled it with white denim for this shot but another fun look would be to wear with distressed denim…the contrast between the dressy and casual fabrics will create a fashion forward appearance. Available at www.neimanmarcus.com.

A Red Dress

Red is a classic color that you can wear any time of year but is especially important this season with desert hues being a key trend. This figure flattering dress features adjustable straps, a drape neck and lattice work detail around the waist and hem. Available at www.nordstrom.com. Shoes available at www.stuartweitzman.com.

Hope these ideas give you fresh ways to update your wardrobe!

After a fun and festive holiday season, I am in the mood to get back to basics…which means lots of salads, new goals and intentions and also fresh wardrobe updates. While glitz and glamour is perfect for the holidays…clean, crisp styles are appealing to me right now. White shirts are a staple of mine and I have quite a few in my wardrobe. Classic and versatile, you can wear them with a number of different pieces…they can be dressy or casual. These pieces are fresh updates to the styles already in my closet.

Leopard pumps available at www.shopbop.com.

At Home Entertaining Wear

At Home Entertaining Wear

Sometimes I like to have a fancy dinner party…other times, a cozy supper and sometimes just champagne and an amuse bouche (sounds fancier than it is). For any of these occasions, I like to feel comfortable pouring drinks, serving food and either mingling around or cozying up on the sofa. Here are three looks that that are ideal for entertaining at home and feeling comfortable at the same time.

s

s

This sexy Alexis jumpsuit is elegant and practical at the same time. Jumpsuits are easier to wear than a cocktail dress when entertaining yet look just as dressy. I like to wear black when hosting in case there is a spill. Available at www.revolve.com.

s

For a cozy and relaxed gathering, I like this velvet burnout kimono paired with a silk cami and jeans. Elevated and relaxed, you can put the remaining touches on your meal easily. Kimono and cami available at www.nordstrom.com and jeans available at www.shopbop.com.

s

This super soft sweater is so comfortable you wont want to take it off…it is the perfect thing to wear when snuggled in on the sofa while chatting with friends. Available at www.freepeople.com.

Happy hosting!

The holidays are here! I am not quite sure where the year went but I am excited for next month. Cold temperatures get me in the Christmas spirit and I want my wardrobe to match. Long gone are the days of faux fur feeling inexpensive and coarse, these pieces are super soft and luxurious.

How to Style: Leather and Lace

s

How to Style: Leather and Lace

s

Awhile back, I had a conversation with a friend discussing how I would like to get a pair of leather leggings. Living in Florida, it is tough to really justify purchasing a pair since I would wear them fairly infrequently. However, I love how leather looks paired with lace, cozy sweaters and other soft pieces. She said she did not feel comfortable wearing leather because she believed it would look too edgy or super trendy and I convinced her that you can create non-intimidating fashion forward looks with all kind of leather pieces. The conversation inspired me to create these three leather and lace looks that are feminine and flattering for almost everyone.

The Leather Skirt

s

s

This black leather skirt is a classic and will last for many years. Pencil skirts are notoriously flattering and this one is no exception. This beautiful white lace top with dramatic sleeves makes this a look that will turn heads. The skirt is available at www.neimanmarcus.com and the top is available at www.nordstrom.com.

The Leather Top

ss

s

Black leather is notoriously edgy but the lace detail and flattering silhouette make this leather and lace peplum top from BCBG a chic dream. Pair with denim or black pants and a pointy toe pump and you are ready for happy hour with friends. Available at www.saks.com.

s

The Leather Jacket

s

ss

This berry colored Rebecca Taylor leather jacket is a fresh take on a leather jacket. The color is far more versatile than you would think and works perfectly with this floral printed lace top. The jacket is available at www.bloomingdales.com and the top is available at www.nordstrom.com.

s

I hope this gives you some inspiration on pairing leather and lace together!

Bisous,

Elegant Thanksgiving Outfits

Elegant Thanksgiving Looks

s

s

As I type it, I am in disbelief that is it almost here…Thanksgiving. The kick off to the 6 week holiday season. I love the holidays and feel it is truly “the most wonderful time of the year” and am excited for all of the gatherings. We have some great content coming to you this season so stay tuned for more. If you have not decided what you are wearing for Thanksgiving…look no further. I have created three elegant looks to help you look fabulous for your Thanksgiving soirées.

s

s

Bodysuits are an excellent option when you want your shirt to look pretty and polished. Since Thanksgiving gatherings tend to be longer than a typical dinner or cocktail party, you do not have to worry about your blouse staying tucked in. This gorgeous floral printed bodysuit is perfect in the shimmering copper color. I paired it with dark denim, a thick gold chain and suede pumps. This and other great bodysuit options are available at www.zara.com.

s

s

Since velvet is a key trend this season in everything from clothing to footwear to accessories…I thought it was important to create a look that featured a unique velvet piece. These A.L.C Velvet Pants have a wide leg and are incredibly soft and comfortable…perfect for a large Thanksgiving meal. I like how this black top looks with this ochre color. Top available at www.zara.com, pants available at www.shopbop.com.

s

s

If you are feeling the urge to dress up a bit, this beautiful A.L.C. floral printed dress is an excellent option. It is not overly dressy but feminine and flattering. Wear with tall suede boots and you are set! Available at www.intermixonline.com.

Hope these looks give you some inspiration for your Thanksgiving ensembles!
