Wildfox Spring 2011 lookbook

Love, love, love the new lookbook. It's all about quirky tops and weird sunglasses! Oh, and Marie Antoinette!

Tommy Hilifger Spring 2011 {A Taste Treat}

I promise to share a delicious Tasty Tuesday post that is in fact food based a bit later toady, but after I watched the Tommy Hilfiger show in action last night (did you know a bunch of shows are live streaming?!) I could not wait another second to share with you the sweetness of the shoes that graced the runway.





They're just as yummy in action, don't you think? I'd happily forgo all of my favorite fall boots if I could get my hands on a pair or two right now!

Monday Work Wear {Fashion Week Inspired}

I've always found it a bit nuts and rather torturous to watch the Spring RTW shows as fall descends on us while I've yet to break in my the new season's boots. Why must designers tantilize me with bright colors, tiny tanks and paper thin dresses? But as I've begun to dig into this year's looks I've been pleasantly surprised by the timely inspiration available in the spring lines.

Here are a few of the trends that I plan on encorporating asap:

The first is (my fave) neutral/nude palate. It allows for seamless transition from season to season. Throw a blazer over that dress or a pair of tights under the shorts and these looks by Doo.Ri are September ready.



You can also never go wrong with a classic pencil skirt, especially one in lush leather. Thank you Preen and Derek Lam for helping a girl out.



But then I also love seeing the hemlines drop.

I need to add these lush, feminine looks in my fall lineup STAT!

And don't even get me started on the Tommy Hilfiger show I watched tonight. As soon as pics become available I'll be sharing my faves, i.e. the entire collection. Don't look so surprised! You'll see what I mean shortly.

Anywho, I hope these got your fashiona juices flowing a bit this morning.

Happy Monday luvies!

Sole-full Decor {Spring Edition}

I'm loving the mix and match of the spring trends. They provide the perfect amount of versatility and my favorite, tons of sky-high heels. Translate it all into decor and no matter which direction you go, you really can't take a wrong turn. 

You might prefer sweet whites,

Or perhaps spring pinks,

then there are the supple neutrals,

And the exuberant brights.

Really, there's a look to suit any mood. Now if only changing decor was as easy as shoes! That's why I invest in big closets.

Think Pink

A Saturday afternoon at home leads to many fun adventures such as finds like Vanessa Bruno.

The spring pre-collection is so easy, sophisticated and introduces pink in way that I actually find totally fabulous! You can have a little bit of it,

A whole lot,

Or just a pretty pinch.

And it's all spot on! Back to browsing - happy Saturday luvies.

Color Me Happy

Because Karen Walker certainly does! I always forget about her line but every time I check back, I'm thrilled.

When it comes to color, the Spring 2010 collection doesn't disappoint.

Brightens your day right?!

In Full Technicolor

It may be dark and dreary now but I have a feeling it's not going to last for much longer. It's just about time to push back the veil of winter and bring on color and in a big, bold way!

Get ready my dears, a spring bloom of saturated hues is coming. And I think it feels good. 

Don't hold back now, ya hear!

To Dye For

Ok, I wasn't planning on rushing into spring, but the 2010 Spring Collection from Shabd is just too good to be patient!

I've been looking for a way to introduce color into my wardrobe and I think I just found it. Who knew tie-dye could look so chic!
