style formula: spots + dots.

Polka dots and leopard are some of the most classic prints around.  On their own, they  liven up any outfit.  Put them together and they create a bold, but surprisingly cohesive look.  It’s currently my favorite combo on rotation, so I’m recreating it for you with pieces that are perfect for fall.

Bright colors will always be my jam, but lately, I’ve been gravitating more towards black and white.  The combo is effortlessly sophisticated.  It’s chic on its own, or the perfect canvas for a pop of color (see yesterday’s outfit for proof).  Check out a few of my favorite black and white pieces and let me know how you style up the color duo.

fall essentials: moody florals.

September 19, 2013

Last weekend, I stored away most of my bright summer pieces while pondering how I could continue to incorporate my favorite prints through the rest of the year.  While my fall outfits will likely involve faux leather or leopard, floral prints will still stake a claim in this season’s wardrobe.  The difference: I’m reaching for moodier florals in darker colors and edgier details.  Check out a few of my favorite fall florals and let me know what you think of these transitional pieces.
