fashion week fantasies {jason wu}

In my fantasies, I dream of dressing like this every day....

summer colors

I love coral and turquoise, especially with a bit of lucite worked in!

watercolors

Dreamy photos from Chris Benz's Resort 2012 resort collection. I want all the clothes by the way, especially the chambray trapeze dress with animal-spotted lining. So fun...

pink makes me happy

Just a few things I've had my eye on this week. Have I mentioned that I need a pink poodle...

yay for color!

These are the kinds of dresses I love to see on the red carpet! The young stars are the real risk-takers - no princess-y ballgowns or sparkly sheaths to be found here. Hailee Steinfeld in SS 2011 Prada, Jennifer Lawrence in Oscar de la Renta, and Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen - each one looks totally cool and totally fabulous. I'm dying for the striped Prada in particular... totally covetable, yes?

The Shoe of the Summer

If I were to buy one pricey pair of wedges this summer, these from Emporio Armani would be the ones. I love the contrast of the navy blue rope with the red patent leather and the lilac pvc straps. Super chic, with a super high heel... I'm in love!

p.s. Hope you all had a great weekend!

Inspired Winter Dressing - Louis Vuitton

It can be challenging to appear stylish during the winter (or at least I've always found it to be the case), but this season I've been testing out some kookier-than-usual looks that have made getting dressed in the morning much more fun. I'm talking about knee socks with skirts, layers galore, belted sweaters, bold prints, furry accents, open-toed sandals with tights... pretty much everything seen in the Louis Vuitton Pre-Fall 2010 collection. It's all a lot of look, I know, but so inspiring at the same time.  So - what have you all been wearing to keep warm and stylish this winter?

Mad About Jak & Jil...

Lately I can't get enough of Tommy Tonn's amazing street style blog, Jak & Jil. Can you believe all of this delicious fashion eye candy?! I love the detail shots in particular, like seeing a jumble of bracelets on an arm or a dotted stocking with leopard and lace stilettos. Divine!
