What’s Trending: Paisley Prints

Paisley print details are taking over full blown patterns on clothing to add a dose of chic simplicity to our Spring wardrobes.  70′s paisley prints are updated with fresh florals for a light and airy look.  Take a tip from Etro, who paired the trend with white ensembles at their New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer ’13 show.

OH MY GOURGEOUSNESS...

Current Obsession: “Taylor Says” Unique & Artsy Stilettos

Taylor Says is one of the most interesting shoe brands out today.  Taylor Reeve incorporates art and funky designs into each pair of their classic stilettos.  The self-described “crazy blondie from Southern California” started out by painting unconventional mediums, from motorcycles to surf boards.  The designs are one of a kind, and are inspired by “bright colors, vivid dreams and the desire to live and take in each moment“.  The heels are such a great way to allow your personality and individuality shine.

Life, Love & The Pursuit of the Perfect Hat

Hats are the ultimate fashion accessory, and can make an outfit quickly go from boring to chic in a matter of seconds.  Not only so, they are amazing for those days when you feel like hiding out from the world (ahem, pair them with sunglasses and you’ve got a hangover fashion cure), as well as work as a quick-fix for those bad hair days.

What’s Trending: Velvet Crush

Although I have to admit, about 6 months ago, when I thought of velvet in clothing, an image conjured up immediately of my older sister’s numerous pairs of velvet pants from the 90′s (needless to say, cringe-worthy).  Nonetheless, velvet has become a big fashion trend this season, and the end is nowhere in sight.

Key point when rocking the trend: Soft velvet fabrics look luxurious, as well as add a very modern touch to the stiff velvet of the 90′s.

For your online shopping convenience, I’ve rounded up a few key velvet pieces that are undoubtedly on my winter wishlist.

What’s Trending: The Kimono

Recently, I’ve been finding myself dreaming of summer festivals (I know its a bit too early, but a girl can dream, right?), and fantasizing about which attire is best for unleashing my inner hippie.  One staple is the kimono, a comfortable cover-up that is easy and breezy, and is, in fact, quite perfect for this winter weather as well (and much more chic than lounging around in sweatpants, let’s be honest).  I’ve gathered up some of my favorites, from waist length to the floor and in a various range of prices.
