Springtime!

Skirts and t-shirts!!
I like wearing weirdo t-shirts I find in the boys section of thrift stores with cute printed knee length skirts. Always paired with my cowboy booties and some fun socks. Yay for spring in California :)

Spring time cute!

It's spring time! What are you wearing today? I'm in a flowy tan floral print skirt (thrift store find) earth day t-shirt (another thrift store find) short cowboy booties and my current obsession, ruffle trim socks from American Apparel :)

OBSESSING

Over pastels for spring, I will post examples soon :)

Current Favorite Accessory

Happy Monday all :) I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. I know I did, besides losing an hour of sleep due to Daylight Savings time. Anyway, I got this new Rachel Roy necklace and I am obsessed with it. I think it helps me determine if I am in a good mood or a bad mood.
weapons away.

bad mood... hehe gun is ready to be used.

Chemline Fall/Winter 2011

Chemline showed their Fall/Winter 2011 collection last night, March 11, at the Ace Gallery. I had not seen many garments from the line prior to the show besides the photo on their website. So lets just say I was going in with a clean slate. What I found was a sleek, strong woman who isn't afraid of sweet details, but is far from a delicate flower. The color palette consisted of deep forest greens, tan silks, black, and cream.

Believe it or not, last night on Wilshire, I was in a sea of scallops.

AND I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!

One of the details that had me gushing was the scalloped hems an Onyx velvet skirt. As the model walked down the runway, the creme lining peeked through. I loved it.

So cute and can we please gush over the collar. The collar mirrored the shape in the back, which made me really happy.

This little white dress had me really excited. Again with the collar.

:D

This coat makes me wish it was winter all year long. The cuff detail is so lovely. It was a thoughtful addition to the coat. Perhaps one of my favorite things about fashion is the details designers add to unexpected places that make you feel like they are thinking about you. Its like the post it your mum put in your lunch box. so sweet.

....Sexy bullfighter...

I love the bow collar thing. The back! (which sadly could not find a picture of) had ...YES scallops! so so so adorable.

....yes I want 5 please :)

Overall the collection was awesome. I left a happy little lady

Designer and the last look which was GORGEOUS!

Oscar Red Carpet

Hailee Steinfeld was a break out actress in "True Grit" but I wish she would have worn some color! Shes young and fabulous, but come on! The color totally washes her out! But I must admit I am a sucker for a perfectly cinched 1950s inspired cocktail/housewife dress. And the embroidery/beading on the bodice is lovely. But since she is so young and an upcoming starlet, she could have pushed the "Fashion envelope" and worn something bright or atleast that doesn't match her skin tone. .. Oh well! Theres always next year!

Okay, I would have liked to finish my Fashion week posts before "covering" the Oscars but I couldn't help it!

I had to mention Mila Kunis's dress. I absolutely loved her in "Black Swan" as the alternative ballet bad girl. But in this lavender lace-y dress, shes absolutely gorgeous and sweet.

The lace tiers/flounces frame her figure perfectly. The lace around her chest is awesome. It ties in the flounces at the bottom. I dig it!

oh yes please!

I bought these today from Old Navy. They were in the girls department but I couldn't help myself! They looked really comfortable and cute. Nothing screams Spring like Espadrille flats :) I am thinking these will be a staple in many Spring wardrobes! At least they will be in my closet.

These would be cute with jeans and a t-shirt but would definitely complement a fun summer dress. I can't wait for Spring! It is my favorite time of the year because the weather is mild enough to wear dresses without tights or leggings but you can still accessorize with a cute cardigan :)

Overall, this little purchase will definitely add a pop of color to my wardrobe.

Don't worry, I'll continue the hunt for more Spring must-haves.
