I know I’ve been overdosing on bright colors lately, but believe it or not, I’m also loving black and white looks for spring.  The contrast makes for a chic ensemble, whether it be in the form of sharp color-blocking or whimsical prints.  Check out a few of my favorite B&W pieces!

presidential purple.

No matter what side of the party line you’re on, I think we can all agree that Sasha and Malia Obama nailed it in ultra violet hues at yesterday’s Presidential Inauguration.  I mean, Michelle looked lovely in her navy Thom Browne coat, but these girls stole the show and inspired me to round up a few of my favorite purple pieces.

what to wear: fall weddings.

This year, I went to three weddings in three different seasons: spring, summer, and fall (do winter weddings even exist?).  I loved attending and dressing up for each one for different reasons, but fall weddings call for a look that’s a little more demure than its spring/summer counterparts.  Classic cuts, adorable accessories, and sophisticated styling is the way I prefer to dress for a fall wedding.  How about you?
