Wardrobe Essential No. 2: Denim Daze

Day 2 of my wardrobe essentials series is all about the perfect pair of jeans. Whether you prefer bootcut, skinny, skinny boot or flare – finding the right pair of jeans for your body shape is essential for having great style. Some of my personal favorite brands are: J.Brand, AG and Rag & Bone. But I strongly suggest you go to the stores and try on a bunch of different styles and brands to find your perfect fit. Not gonna lie, it takes some time and patience…but in the end it’s worth it.

2011 Fall Trend: Add Some Spice To Your Wardrobe

Yes, it has been about two weeks since my last blog post – ugh! I am sooooo sorry. I hope to make it up to you by giving you a lots of fun pics to inspire your fall wardrobe.

As much as I am going to miss summer, fall is by far the most fun when it comes to fashion. It is still a little too warm in LA for winter wools and tights but I am hopeful that will change in October.

I am totally inspired by all of the beautiful spicy tones that are showing right now for fall. Try adding a piece or two to your wardrobe. Think deep rusty reds, cognacs, camels and shades of orange. If you have the right skin tone, you could even do mustard yellow.

July Identity Crisis

Every year around this time I find myself getting annoyed (and at the same time excited) when stores and magazines start showing the first signs of fall. I know, it’s buy now wear now for summer and shop now and wear later for fall. I get it. It’s just a little depressing how we are always living for tomorrow and not enjoying what we have today. Yes, you can still enjoy what you have today but “they” (and by “they” I am referring to magazines and stores) make it really hard. You would think I’d be used to it by now considering I am a former designer and my brain was programed to work that way. But to tell you the truth, it actually gives me a little anxiety. Some good anxiety in the sense that I am excited and anxious to see what’s coming in for fall. And some bad anxiety in the sense that I need to start thinking about fall when I am still thinking about summer.  So I guess that I just need accept that part of me is still in summer mode (naturally considering it is early July) and the other part of me is starting to enter fall mode (not so natural one would think considering it’s early July). Hence, my July Identity Crisis.

I am pretty sure I am not alone in my July Identity Crisis…I think.  So I thought I would be fun to show a bunch of cute things that I am coveting at this very second. Some fall, some summer. Enjoy!
