Outfit

Cropped Top: American Apparel

Shorts: Sparkle and Fade via Urban Outfitters

Shoes: Messica Coraline via Solestruck

Purse: Vintage Coach

Aviators: D&G get a similar pair HERE!

These are definitely one of my favorite pair of perfect shorts! I love the retro feel of them. These wedges are such shoestoppers...ha...I just made that word up. Well it's fitting because whenever I wear them everyone stops and ask where I got them. They are also one of the most comfortable pair of wedges I own. Summer on a popping right now so I had to take out the D&G aviators I got last year for my trip to Miami. Instant coolness!

Vintage Jumper Skirt: Thrifted at a tiny little thrift shop in NYC only $10 fashion STEELE!!!

Top: Cotton+Candy via Necessary Objects in Soho

Shoes: Messica Coraline

This is one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe. I swear I wear this jumper dress once a week in the summer and spring time. Something about the color and the paisley print just makes me happy.

Target Tuesdays

Outfit

Jacket: (Can't make out the brand name) Target

Romper: Xhiliration via Target

Cross Body Bag: Vintage Coach

Wedges: Messica Coraline saw them in Shoegasm in NYC as well same price.

Necklace: Modern Tibet got it HERE!!!

So I got most of this outfit from Target...would you believe that!

Target is freaking awesome. I fell in love with this suede jacket the moment I saw it. It's lightweight so perfect for those chilly Spring and Summer nights. Suede in the Spring??? I think so! Especially with this crazy weather NYC has literally been showering us with. But I won't complain because people in the South got it bad. I had to call and make sure my family was ok after all those tornado's.

I finally got to break out these wedges. I think it's the perfect time to wear them. They still cover a majority of my foot so even if its not 65 degrees outside my foot stays pretty warm.

 Feels more like I'm wearing booties.

It's FINALLY Spring so I'm dressing for Spring! The weather in NYC was amazing today!

Has anyone else seen the awesome stuff at Target ??? Like those Dolce Vita Wedges???

XOXO

Spring Lookbook Pt VI: Jersey Dresses

For Spring I want lots and lots of comfortable jersey material dresses and tops. I love jersey because it doesn't really wrinkle and is easy to pack. I also am really into wedges and pops of turquoise colors. I've stuck to my Spring color palette of Blues, Browns and Whites.

This is one of my favorite jersey dresses in an off-white color. Got this dress for less than $10 at Marshalls about 3 years ago!

Love these turquoise earrings! Got these at my favorite NYC accessory store Jewelry Plaza!!! only $3 Fashion STEELE!

This is one of my favorite thrifted purses. I love the leather woven braided details especially in the shoulder straps. This is also a longer strap bag which I think will be in for Spring!

 I love this combination. I can almost see myself on a nice sunny day, the warmth of the sun on my face, walking through the park,  in this exact outfit. I'm so ready for Spring I dont know what to do with myself. The Winter here in NYC is brutal this year! However I am super excited for Mercedes Benz Fashion Week!!!!!!

Outfit

Dress: Celebrity Pink

Wedges: Solestruck

Purse: Thrifted

Earring: Jewelry Plaza NYC

My Personal Style: Spring Lookbook 2011 Pt II

So last post I previewed my Spring Look for the 2011. I like the combination of colors: blue, white, cognac and green for the Spring Season. I also discussed tribal print, natural wood, and ivory accessories. I want to debut another "look" from my personal Spring Style lookbook.

My color predictions for the Spring Season 2011 are blues, greens, whites and browns. I kept with the color sceme with this look. I also am in love with this rose applique top from American Apparel. This top can transend seasons. I paired it with mint colored linen tailored pants from American Apparel as well.

This look would work with any number of heels but I prefer these cognac platforms by Jessica Simpson.

Color Palette Combination

I like mixing silks, cottons and this rose applique.

Details can add the extra umph to any outfit!

Accessory Trends

Last posting I commented about my style for this Spring as far as accessories are concerned. I'm stacking up on : thick bangles(woods, ivories, turquoise and tribal prints)! I have incorporated these into my ring selections as well. I love the large statement cocktail rings in natural colors.

Shoe Alert

Wedges, Wedges and more Wedges. I'm definitely sticking with wedges this Spring. They are very comfortable yet fashionable. I like pops of color such as these turquoise wedges with wood detailing. I also like to experiment with different textures such as the suede and chiffon TopShop wedges and the leather and wood in the torquoise platforms. The neutral cork wedge is by Market and will be a great staple for my Spring Wardrobe when I wear more colored pants or tops.

Outfit combining some of my Spring Color Palette see more of this look here!!!!!

What shoe trends do you think will rule this Spring Season?
