Chambray & Orange

As we approach spring, remember to bring those bright colors out of your closet. By adding a bright JCrew Excursion quilted vest to the mix, you’ll get a spring ready to wear outfit. I try to keep my outfits very casual on the weekends whether I’m running errands or shopping so it’s easy to try things on and keep it comfortable.

There are many chambray shirts variations but the JCrew keeper chambray one is my favorite, it fits right and the color is just right. Blue and white (JCrew matchstick jean) was an easy choice.

JCrew Spring 2012 Collection

This year’s spring collection is full of fun and colors. JCrew brings all-time classics such as the Jackie twinset sweaters, Capri pants in lovely dahlia, pinks, blues and many more colors, super comfy pointy flats you can wear to the office, to run errands and just about anywhere else. I can’t stop thinking about the sequin skirt, it’s too fantastic. The schoolboy blazers and tippi sweaters are every day items I totally recommend to add to your closet. Happy shopping everyone!

Shine On

Metallics are very in this spring 2012, you can pair them up with neutrals and even patterns. Your outfits will shine a bit brighter with metallics paired with blacks, white, and browns to keep an even balance. The sky is the limit with your metallic pants, shorts, and skirts. They will sparkle like a starry night! Golden moments happen with sequin shorts and an oversize blouse or sweater. High gloss and sparkly metallic pieces are the perfect mix of luxury and glamour. Raise your glass and toast to a chic, champagne-colored skirt. Cheers!

Inside my Bag

What is inside my bag? A bundle of essentials I need to carry with me every day! My Marc by Marc Jacobs Q Hillier bag has been one of my best purchases. It is quite spacey to house all of my favorite things. My Longchamp ‘Le Pliage’ 2-Tone Pouchette holds all my make-up and first aid essentials (I will reveal on an upcoming post). I also carry the latest issue of Vogue or JCrew’s catalog, icebreakers and/or gum, a notepad to house all my blogging and work light-bulb moments, business cards holder, Ray-Ban sunglasses, mini sewing kit, umbrella, hand sanitizer, hand lotion, blackberries, Louis Vuitton card holder and Tory Burch embossed continental wallet.
