Twill Thrill

Twill is such an easy pattern to pull off. The design is so small, that it can easily be paired, mixed and matched with other colors or prints. I'm going with a deep red and white stripe cotton tee with a faux leather elbow-patch. The October outfit is classic and subtle.

Feminine Charm

Something about the silhouette of a fit and flare that is so flirty and feminine! I find it flattering on a shorter figure. May flowers are blooming and the humidity is rising, which means navy stripes are begging to be worn! The combination of navy, white and gold is slightly nautical but screams chic! Such a simple palette, but such a bold statement.

Stripe Swoon

Graphic designs have been huge this season and stripes have taken precedence in the fashion world. Though they  never really go out of fashion, stripes are reinvented by designers almost every season. The notable trend has me hooked. Nothing is easier than a cotton striped dress!

Pop of Print

I always gravitate towards vibrant prints and color; so it's no surprise to see me integrate both! The citrus orange on the top plays off the neutral navy while the small prints on the pant are eye-catching.

Simple Stripes

I'm slightly crazed for nautical stripes. I consider this dress my wear-with-anything frock. It's simple to add a dash of extra with fun accessories. Throw on a pair of colored flats and I'm out the door in no time!

Winter White

The relaxed fit of a trouser pant is not only comfortable, but forgiving! (Which I need after this holiday season!) Winter white is highly versatile and easy to mix and match. Though it's January, I'm channeling a slightly nautical theme with navy and white stripes. Happy 2013 everyone!

Lace & Fringe

There is something festive about combining two glam fabrics. Since Thanksgiving is right around the corner, today I'm mixing fringe and lace! (Getting in the Holiday spirit!) The unique merge of the two is simply charming. To break up the standard black and white, I added my teal suede, almond toe wedges.

Stripes in Santa Barbara

I've always been a fan of the nautical look of stripes and I belted the dress to give it more shape, then added the chunky necklace for a pop of color. This dress was perfect for traveling through Santa Barbara.

Casual Saturday

I can't help but stack bracelets for an arm full of sparkle!
