Street Style With Village Luxe
Do you ever wonder how to look like a street style star decked out head to toe? Did you ever look at your closet full of clothes and say to yourself, I have nothing to wear? Yes, a million times, yes. If you follow my blog or instagram, you know I clearly have a... Read More
On My Radar
I won’t need to look far and wide for the two items that top my spring list, gladiators and pretty white lacy things. So simple yet so chic. Valentino has both for the taking, and I was also able to find similar looks for less. Score! for the perfect holiday... Read More
On My Radar
I have been looking for the perfect fringe suede skirt and I finally found it. Lucky me, it’s on sale today at Intermix. I like to combine light colors like cream, and bone with black for a statement and add a simple denim jacket to tone the whole look down... Read More
The Only Thing That is Constant Is Change
2013 was about meeting new friends, finding new ways to get a good night’s sleep, learning how to twerk, and conquering old dysfunctional tasks. I predict that 2014 will be about venturing into unchartered territory. Change is always good, stagnation is not, but we have to let ourselves accept the... Read More
Fringe Benefits
My style icon, Phoebe Philo, makes herself very clear about the importance of minimalism, and in the name of fashion, adopting the French attitude that less is more. But just when I’ve gotten the hang of never taking off my ripped denim, waking up at the crack of dawn for Isabel Marant, trying to... Read More
Trench Dressing
With the looming threat of rain constantly over our shoulders, (wasn’t it supposed to rain this week?), I am always confounded as to how to dress appropriately, albeit chic, under the angst-filled umbrella. Inclement weather really isn’t a particularly easy feat to tackle–humidity bastardizes our hair, our bodies and clothing own... Read More
Shoe Wars
On a recent trip to the shoe selection in my closet, I noticed an abundance of brogues, sneakers, and comfy heels– a trend that I don’t see going anywhere anytime soon. All the pointy-toe shoes and boots that I used to covet, have developed claustrophobia, waiting patiently in their storage... Read More
Sheer bliss
Thanks to the Fall and Spring runways, not to mention street style, sheer fabrics are having a moment. Sheer usually means it is practically see-through, intimating that you are going to need to wear something underneath. This trend popped up during Fashion Week in Paris at a number of collections such... Read More
Foot Stompin’
Among the many manifestos that I have made this past season; most notably wide-leg pants, mixing prints, oversized coats, and over-the-top fur, I have not forgotten about what has been occurring below ankle level. Knee-high boots are more prevalent than booties, the platform shoe is not dead, and we see... Read More
The Ad Campaigns of Spring 2012
Tis’ the season for holiday giveaways. You thought I would be singing “chestnuts roasting on an open fire” through this computer..but I’m not. Rather, I am looking at all the eye candy that is happening on my television screen whetting the appetite for Spring. Yes, today is the shortest day... Read More
