Everyone Loves Plaid

Hi Angels!!

One of the top trends I have been seeing everywhere this fall is plaid.  For the first time, I actually think I like plaid!  Designers have made plaid look edgy and tres chic, by creating versatile pieces that can be dressed up or down. They have moved away from the more traditional shirts that you would expect to see in plaid, and have instead created moto jackets and skirts in subdued shades that have managed to make me a fan.  I especially love the look Versace featured in their main display (below).  I think it's an easy look to replicate with a lower end plaid jacket paired with some black leggings and black pumps.  For an office look, wear a plaid pencil skirt with green and navy blue, add a white shirt, bangles, and a statement necklace and you are good to go!!  You can dress plaid down for the weekend with a button down shirt and some gray jeans. 

I have scoured high to low, and have summarized places you can find plaid trends and inspiration for every budget ranging from Versace, Saks, all the way to Forever 21. My top pick aside from the Versace look is the Gap jacket, pictured below.  Overall, I think this trend is a do. 

Versace:

Zara:

Alice & Olivia skirt at Saks:

Joie shirt at Saks:

Dior Rouge Inspired Look

Hi Angels!!

I came across this ad featuring the beautiful Natalie Portman for Dior while flipping through Marie Claire a few days ago.  I loved the everyday chic aspect of the look and was inspired to recreate it with pieces I already own.

Natalie is wearing a black top underneath a black blazer, rolled up jeans, pink suede pumps, and a black bag featuring a chain strap. I rummaged through my closet and found all of these items. See below for how I compiled all the pieces:

Black tank from H&M:

Black boyfriend blazer from off5th:

Rolled up jeans from GAP:

Pink suede pumps (see my earlier post "Jimmy Choo Look For Less" for details):

Black leather bag with chain strap:

And viola!  Final product:

All of the items I have selected were under $100 each.  Now that wasn't so hard, was it?

Happy recycling what is hidden in your closet :)

Camo goes glam!

Hey Angels,

Today's outfit is inspired by the recent drop in temperatures and… My recent obsession with all things camouflage!  The key in this outfit is the pops of neon pink that keep this tone on tone look interesting and ultra feminine.  I'm going to find a million ways to incorporate this J. Crew necklace (from their spring/summer collection) into my fall wardrobe, because I do believe in keeping the colors fun even as the layers pile on.  

Gap tank

Express jacket and camouflage pants

J. Crew sandals 

J. Crew statement necklace 

J. Crew Factory pave link bracelet

Stella and Dot "renegade" spike bracelet

Express multi-chain gold bracelet

Michael Kors gold chronograph boyfriend watch (Macy's online) 

I paired this bold outfit look with neutral (but shimmery) makeup choices.  This allows all the attention to be focused on my neon sandals and statement necklace!

Face:

MAC matchmaster foundation 

Makeup Forever concealer palette

MAC warm blend mineralize skinfinish

Eyes:

MAC- pigment in Naked all over the eyelid, sparkle Neely sparkle in crease, Center Stage in outer v, Arena in highlight /brow bone (not pictured)

Black eyeliner on top eyelid, leave bottom lid unlined for a very daytime/work look.  Finish with at least 2 coats of mascara on top and bottom lashes.  I'm currently loving Benefit "They're Real" mascara over Tarte lash primer.  A winning combo that will have people thinking you're rocking falsies!  

Side note: Since I started using this mascara I've probably worn falsies only a handful of times for special occasions.  

Lips:

OCC makeup lip tar in "kava-kava".  

If you want to punch up this makeup look to meet up with friends at happy hour, switch this lip color for something pink to tie in your shoes and necklace.  Our faves:  MAC Quick Sizzle, Candy Yum-Yum.  Or Urban Decay Anarchy.  

Hope you enjoy and are inspired!  Please share your comments, questions and your takes on the red hot military trend!  Let's talk fashion and makeup!!!

Pops of Color

Hello Angels!!

This Spring there seems to be a shift towards bright colors, after all of the Winter darks, it's time to come out and make a statement.  We are particularly drawn to bright denim at the moment.  We have seen shades ranging from red to green to yellow to blue.  I recommend red and blue, as seen on many celebrities so far.  Here are some places you can get this look, at a deep discount.

Gap Blue Denim
