Monday {Be Bold} Workwear

Just because you're at the office doesn't mean your look needs to be totally boring serious.You can take a cue from the Balenciaga Pre-Fall 2011 collection (a designer that is growing on me all the time!)

You can take classic pieces like a pencil skirt, blazer or black cowl neck and pair them with a daring print, strong color, or unconventional accessory to stand out from the crowd.

I love the idea of making a statement without having to say a word!

Have a great week luvies.

Do You Dare?

The trend graced runways at Burberry and even Oscar de la Renta and now you're spotting it on many a fashionable foot. I'm talking about tights/socks with sandals.

Great not-quite-warm-enough-to-wear-open-toed-alternative, or, major fashion faux pas? I'm torn...or maybe just a little timid. Do you dare try it??
