Introducing...

2012-02-09T19:37:00.000-06:00

Just in case you don't know her, let me introduce a young new model that the fashion world has fallen in love with...Lyndsey Wixson.

Who can blame them, she is darling and at only 17 years old, a very successful model!

Here she is, featured in Muse Magazine...

I will be following her during Fashion Week!

Perfectly Sheer...

2012-01-18T19:24:00.000-06:00

I have continued my love affair with the maxi dress and now it has taken on new allure by calling for something a little more see-through!

Christian Dior Resort 2012 - feminine, with a hint of sheer.

Tastefully sheer, worn with a short black dress underneath.

Completely sheer...trending this spring!

If you choose to courageously take on the completely sheer maxi trend or take a more conservative approach, don't worry, it appears you'll find lots of versions available to choose from!

'Sheer'fully yours,

Saying Goodbye...

2011-12-30T14:18:00.000-06:00

I don't know about you, but I look back at 2011 with fond (and not so fond) fashion memories!

Here are a few street style trends that we have seen pop up EVERYWHERE!

Yes, we too at one point were into these trends...but I'm guessing that we will not be too terribly sad to see them go.

Cozy and Warm...

2011-12-13T13:47:00.000-06:00

One of the best things about chilly weather is getting to cozy up in a fabulously fashionable coat!

Fur is the trend this season {faux and genuine} and is more than likely to stay the trend for awhile!

Faux or not, you can't go wrong with the glamorous {and cozy} look of a fur collar.

Shopping at Revente the other day, I found these...

I adore the variety of styles and labels I find when resale shopping...love the fact that my wallet won't suffer the shock of retail prices!

I might just get two!

'Tis The Season..

2011-11-28T15:46:00.001-06:00

Are you ready for your holiday party?

Grace your next event or party in this lovely stretch taffeta, Kay Unger New York cocktail dress.

The asymmetric cut of the gathered top and fitted waist are completely feminine and very flattering.

Pair it with some fabulous gold earrings and strappy pumps and you will for sure, turn heads!

A retail price of $395 would make most of us think twice, right?

Revente Upscale Resale has it for a mere $69.98!
If you're a size 8...no thought required!

All About Denim...

2011-10-20T01:00:00.003-05:00

The weather is finally cooling off!

Time to slip into some fabulous denim.

I found a blog that I have fallen in love with...I must share!

eat, sleep, denim

Here's a quick lesson on denim washes and where to wear them!

{Thank you Taylor Davies!}

Acid Wash

An acid wash finish creates significant contrast in the color of denim fabric.

They are a bold wash and are best worn on the beach as cut-off shorts for a fun vintage look.

Give them a more modern look by adding a polished separate.

Sanded Finish

A sanded finish is achieved with a combination of pumice stones, enzymes and sand, natch. This process is used to create the illusion of aged denim.

This wash is great for a casual weekend outing - comfy and soft!
Throw on those boyfriend jeans and relax.

Stone Wash

Stone washing is a process that gives denim a worn-in, more relaxed look, and gives the fabric added softness and flexibility. The process removes color and adds contrast.

The lighter wash is great for casual outings.

I love the dark wash which can be dressed up or down for just about any occasion.

Rinsed Denim

This the darkest wash of all! They look great in a trouser cut and good for the office or a night out on the town. These look equally good in a skinny style worn with a great pair of heels, of course!

Be careful with these when washing...separately and inside out only!
The indigo dye is not a color you want on ALL your clothes!

Whatever wash is your favorite, you'll have to agree...nothing feels quite like a great pair of jeans!

xoxo

Outrageous!

2011-10-11T14:02:00.001-05:00

So...I just couldn't help myself!

Being a true shoe lover, I had to double-take at these shoe finds!

I love bananas, but...really?

Just in case you might find you have need for a slingshot?

Hmmm...the therapist is in?

Just plain silly!

Where would you wear these and why?!

I really have no words...

Your thoughts?

Fashionably yours?

Denim 101...

2011-03-09T11:08:00.007-06:00

I *love* a great fitting pair of denim!

Finding that great pair can be, well....let's just say, I don't love that part!

There really is a denim cut for every body shape!

I stumbled onto a great video that helps walk you through how to find that perfect fit!

If you love denim as much as I do, I'm sure you will appreciate this advice...

Now that you've viewed the video and are familiar with the perfect style, cut and brand, for you...pretty sure you know where to go to find your denim (and for a lot less)!

If you watched The Academy Awards on Sunday, I'm sure you've chosen your favorite gown from the evening.

I loved all of Anne's looks from the evening...
I mean who wouldn't love having so many stunning gowns to wear in one night!

Starting on the Red Carpet in a 2002 Valentino,

And ending the evening in a burgandy Atelier Versace.

I am a strong believer that your personal style should be a reflection of your personality.

Experiment with different looks, find what suits you best, what's comfortable...

make it your own.

Already have your own signature style?

Add a fun element that still shows your signature style, but will keep it from looking stagnant.

A New Year...

2011-01-28T02:21:00.005-06:00

I admit, I've never been one to make New Year's resolutions

(other than those that revolve around fashion)

I have decided to make one now...

I resolve to keep you updated on all that is fashion (in a more regular fashion)!

With that being said...

I think fashion resolutions are good any time of year, so over the next few days, I will be posting a few for you to ponder:

1. Add more color to your wardrobe!

If you are like me, you probably have far more darkness in your closet than should be there.

If adding a lot of color is a little overwhelming for you, start with adding a colorful accessory, like a scarf, or colored shoes...my two favorites!

So good to be back!

2010-11-01T08:38:00.000-05:00

I believe that most of my fashion inspiration comes from street style.

I am also of the belief that black looks good on everyone.

Slimming, classy, chic....EASY.

I am particularly drawn to this ensemble...the raw edges, socks with heels...not usually what I am drawn to, but this just works.

Simple, edgy and stylish.

This season, you just can't go wrong with either of these looks.

Love the belted coat, cuffed pants and flats.

Conclusion: Black is always good.

What can I say about the Vera Wang collection?

I absolutely love the colors...and all that tulle is stunning and oh so very romantic.

I do have to say...these column dresses are exquisite!

Simply perfect for an elegant summer wedding!

Fashion Envy...

2010-06-04T11:59:00.005-05:00

With Sex and The City 2 hitting the theaters (you have seen it, right?), our 4 favorite divas have once again solicited envy in the hearts of women across the world!

It doesn't stop there...Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted on set in this stunning Halston Heritage dress, Christian Louboutin Pigalle heels and a gold Chanel clutch...

*Sigh*

Bring On Summer!

Shorts, capris, platform sandals, skirts, neutral colors, stripes...

...and of course, the side braid!

I think I'm leaning towards this casual chic look this summer.

The Return of the Braid...

2010-04-09T11:57:00.006-05:00

I *Adore* this look!

Why this look works:

1) Great with any hair color

2) You don't have to tuck your "fringe" into the braid; instead, it's best to just style it loosely.

3) It works for any season!

Welcome Springtime...

2010-03-24T01:18:00.006-05:00

Aww...Spring.

I am choosing to welcome in the new season wearing a soft, romantic look...and a lovely hat!

Obsession...

2010-03-01T11:34:00.003-06:00

I am sort of a lip gloss fanatic, however, I've found that so many of the glosses I use are just too sticky for my taste. I find myself constantly removing my hair from my lips and then giving up and wiping off the gloss...frustrating!

I have welcomed Velana K lip gloss as my newest obsession! Finally, a non-sticky, gloss available in 10 lovely shades. All named after women in Velana's life. (cute idea, huh?) Currently, Vanessa is my favorite pick...the perfect pink!
Enriched with Vitamins A & C, shea butter and a golden seaweed mixture that protects against aging, I figure I can't go wrong!

Perfection....

2010-02-25T23:39:00.005-06:00

Everything about this ensemble is perfect.

Of course, I am crushing on the Coach boots!

Loving the vintage Chanel bag..the colors, the fun scarf, the lovely necklace...I think you're getting the picture - I *adore* this outfit!

There's still time to wear it just as it is...someday spring will visit Dallas!

Alice In Wonderland

2010-01-25T00:48:00.005-06:00

Tim Burton’s digital 3-D “Alice in Wonderland” -- in theaters March 5 -- is already generating excitement with all it's product tie-ins. Instead of toys, there’s lot's of fabulous stuff for grown-ups!

This collection, hand selected by Disney and created by Sue Wong, features pieces influenced by key story characters including Alice, the Red Queen and the White Queen and will showcase unique details inspired by the film, such as Victorian antique lace and vibrant details, while offering Sue Wong’s signature style: romance, femininity and amazing hand-detailing.

*sigh*

The collection will launch in February at Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s.

What's more...

Available in February is Swarovski's "Underland" collection featuring 17 jewelry pieces -- pendants, necklaces, rings and earrings!

We may all still be feeling the effects of the winter cold, but at Louis Vuitton, it's all about spring!

A new twist? I love it...goodbye Madonna, hello Lara Stone.

Makes me long for spring and a lovely new handbag!

Layers...

2010-01-03T22:36:00.004-06:00

Welcome to January!

Loving layers...

Love how she uses a brightly colored scarf to punch up shades of gray

Add a touch of color with another layer...purple, perhaps?

Enhance long legs...pair tights with shorts (yes, even when it's cold outside!)

Go Edgy...banded boots and leather leggings...oh yes!

Layer light (jacket) with heavy (scarf)

Whatever you choose...chunky knits, cozy scarves or elegant coats, rock the new year in layers - hit the street and showcase your chic!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Christian Louboutin Fifre Ankle Boots

Love, love, love Renée's look here.

Note the "air of authority" that Cheryl has...

*drooling*

This trend can be a bit tricky to pull off. Body type is important to consider when putting together an outfit that includes ankle boots.

A Mix of Masculine and Feminine...

2009-12-09T01:30:00.005-06:00

Although this trend has been around for a couple of seasons, it's still going strong.

Military inspired clothing and accessories just seem to add an air of authority, don't you think?

The clean and polished look means it can be worn anywhere. Paired with more feminine pieces, it adds a softer, more feminine look (note the lace tights).

Look for well cut coats with brass buttons and other interesting details.

The Return of Feminine...

2009-12-02T09:00:00.003-06:00

“I consider lace to be one of the prettiest imitations ever made of the fantasy of nature; lace always evokes for me those incomparable designs which the branches and leaves of trees embroider across the sky, and I do not think that any invention of the human spirit could have a more graceful or precise origin.” ~Coco Chanel

Romatic or sexy - just make sure it's in your fall wardrobe!

*Indulge* in your feminine side

Edgy...

2009-11-30T13:05:00.003-06:00

Over the next few posts, I thought I would cover the looks you're going to be seeing a lot more of this winter.

One of those looks is the thigh high boot. they are in my opinion extremely sexy (not to mention, warm) ...a definite must have this season. Of course it would help for the weather to cool down just a bit!
They add a bit of 'attitude' to almost any outfit. Just be careful to avoid the "trashy" and go for the "classy"...personally, I would stick to the suede and leather variety, the pvc's...well...let's just say they're not for me!

Here are a few of my favorites:

I *love* these Brian Atwoods, but at $1235 my pocketbook has other ideas!

*tears*

These Colin Stewarts @ Victoria Secret are far more affordable and are beautiful.

*smile*

These Topshop brown suede thigh high boots would be perfect with a long cozy sweater and at $180 they fit into the budget much better!

2009-11-28T20:34:00.001-06:00

Oh so romantic...

2009-11-20T11:32:00.004-06:00

I am loving the romantic feel of this look...the shawl is magnificent, is it not?

As always, Mischa Barton looks beautiful...

Again...the shoes! What a lovely color combination.
