Party Time...Excellent!

When I saw these ridiculous Tom Binns hand-painted crystal earrings, my jaw dropped. ENDLESS opportunities to wear them...they would go with literally everything...day to night, work to date. LOVE.

So you may ask your scouters, what are some great things to pair them with?

Well, for a nighttime look - pair with a fun, bright dress like this Halston Heritage orange number. Dance the night away in amazing HH, classic gold sandals and stack these Cara bangles that come in a set of 22 on either one arm or divide them up on both. We love this Cynthia Vincent Classic Pouch in nude stingray as a small accessory option to carry your credit cards and lip gloss.

Dive in...

I leave for Florida on Wednesday and cannot help but scout for bikinis and beach basics and must-haves!

LOVE this bright, printed Mara Hoffman Chieftan Story bandeau bikini. Pair it with a simple, white DVF cover up - sheer enough to show the amazing swimsuit, simple black sparkle studs (because I believe in jewels at the beach), the perfect KORS Michael Kors sandals and a tote that will take you from the beach to the farmer's market!

It's Friday, Friday, getting down on Friday...

Have you all heard that song on the radio or seen the video on youtube.com? I am always the last to see these things! However, the song does stick in your head if you like it or not...


Here is my Friday Friday pick for you.
I love elephants.

This bag is screaming buy me and carry me this summer:


Watch the video HERE - in case you missed it. Apparently it got voted "worst song of all time", but has almost close to 47 million hits on you tube! Wow.

When skies are grey...BARNEYS can make you happy!


You make me happy when skies are grey...and so does Barneys with this adorable chic gray/yellow umbrella. How many times do you go out in the rain and your umbrella turns inside out!? This always happens in a windy city like NYC! After a good storm you see cheap black umbrellas thrown to the streets. My guess is you would not see this pretty little guy - he would keep you dry and remain by your side (I hope)!

theoutnet.com: Halston Heritage


To be honest I came across this Audrey Hepburn saying first and then thought to myself - I need a fun pink dress for this summer! I have a ton of events coming up. Dresses are needed: engagement parties, charity events, and a couple weddings. What to wear!?

How about this Halston Heritage dress for a June wedding!?
 With the right heels and bag - I think the dress would be perfect. Buy HERE at theoutnet.com for $177.75. Was originally $395.00. 


I believe in pink...do you?

Polka Dots. Polka Dots.


Could polka dots be the new 'stripes'? 
They do certainly work as a neutral. I need to work some polka dot pieces into my Spring wardrobe.

She's got stars in her eyes...

I am NOT one to over do it with the trends but I actually am digging this look. Stars are not just in the sky but all over the shopping sites and magazine pages. I love this ADAM Star-print silk mini dress, paired with little sparkly Lee Angel studs, a Melinda Maria  delicate necklace, Mystique gold sandals and a simple, straw and gold clutch from Kate Spade .

Too starry? not for me...



ANIMAL


  I love how this girl wears this dress with such easy.

A little animal print is a must for everyone in my opinion.

Feeling your wild side this Spring here are a couple finds online:

TIBI Animal print cap-sleeved dress. Buy HERE at NET-A-PORTER.COM $370.00

Parker animal print cami dress. Buy HERE at Bloomingdales.com. $188.00

THE Scarf for Spring...

It is 70 in New York. Bye bye jackets and hello bare arms. Now, as we know - scarves have traditionally been a cold weather staple but they really are also a key accessory in general and there are so many amazing scarves out there in stores today.

My inspiration today? Matthew Williamson's Wool Blend scarf - the bright colors lend perfectly to this warm, springy weather. I paired it with a fab ADAM denim shirt dress, a brightly colored wooden bangle  from Bauble Bar, a pair of adorable espadrille wedges from Calvin Klein, and an expensive Old Navy crossbody bag.


If you don't want to break the bank with Matthew Williamson, choose this similar printed one from Forever 21!

Green Nails: Happy St. Patty's Day!

I think bright colored nails are just plain fun! I am constantly painting my own nails and changing the color up. Why not throw green in the mix!? OPI and Chanel both have a color out called Jade. I love it! 
Could Jade be the new black?
 
Happy St. Patty's Day friends!

Topshop

When I lived in London I used to love to run over to Topshop. The stores were huge! I would shop for a 'going out shirt', bracelet, or fun accessories to jazz up an outfit for weekend outings. I love this stripe dress from Topshop. Love. How great would this be to wear to a summer wedding!? $64.00


Stripes. I know. I will stop. If I can!!

Kate Spade: Stripes Sale & Love

This cute skirt from Kate Spade is on (our favorite four letter word): SALE!  Just in time for Spring shoppers. I love how Kate Spade pairs the skirt with bright red shoes. Adorable! Now $172.00
Tipsy? These ballet flats from Kate Spade named: Tipsy! Love it. Great pop of color to have your toes shine!  $198.00

And here are some other cute stripie items from Kate Spade:


Green with envy...

I love party dresses -  it is actually a serious weakness. I end up buying one when I don't always need it just because I cannot live without it. Bad, bad habit and hard to break.

I came across this Halston Heritage little green number and fell in love. I havent purchased it YET...but couldn't help but search the internet for the perfect accessories to accompany the style...What did I find?

Nude sandals that arent cheap but will be amazing staples in any closet, paired with a bright and equally colorful KAGE clutch at the perfect price point, a Kenneth Jay Lane Gold-plated metal bracelet and some funky gold earrings. LOVE it.

Today's Inspiration - Dolce Vita Shorts

I love prints - they add something special to an outfit and also serve as a building block for the rest of the outfit. Prints are inspiring, fun and allow you to take a playful approach to fashion.

These Macie Printed Shorts from Dolce Vita are inexpensive and incredibly cute. Because of the tribal feel, I would love to pair them with a simple gold Giraffe necklace from J Crew (for only $22.50), an understated white t-shirt from Nation LTD, the perfect Sam Eldelman sandals that I can wear all spring and summer, an African, tribal inspired bracelet from Hive & Honey...oh and an AMAZING BE & D hand bag....

ENJOY!

We are back!! Almost...

We are still waiting for the face lift to be complete, but we have been gone so long we just cannot stand waiting it out! So stay tuned for the final look...

I am currently on the scout for new sunglasses! Spring is around the corner (I think)...Does anyone have any suggestions for me? How great do these look?
