The jumpsuit. Something I have loved yet feared for many months.. in fact, many years. It seems that every photo I see a jumpsuit in, street style or runway, I fall in love. Especially this one with it's draping and belted waist. Paired with the perfect pair of heels, you're set to go. Yet, I can't seem to convince myself to purchase one while living in sunny, southern Florida (where it seems the only jumpsuits women wear are of the tank top/short shorts version.. and not just to the beach)
I could always buy one and keep it in the back of my closet for my trips to London. Still not practical. I guess we can't have it all, all at once. I'll continue to lust over the photos until I find the one jumpsuit that I can't live without and cave in. Until next time, xx
It's a safe assumption by now to say I'm a big fan of black & neutral colors. Black is a good staple color to keep in your wardrobe but it's always fun to play around with color, textures & metallics. That's why I'm vowing to put away my all black ensembles (for the time being) and introduce a 'pop' of something else.
'Pop' of gold: Not only is this Lanvin dress the perfect 'LBD' but the gold collar really makes a statement and keeps it from being ordinary and well, black.
'Pop' of floral: Olivia does no wrong in my book. (Well there has been a couple but we won't bring that up now) I'm not even sure how to describe this outfit other than amazing. Casual yet chic, comfortable yet classy.
'Pop' of that red sole: If you don't to add some color or print to your clothes, why not your shoes? Instead of a colorful shoe, try a colorful sole... applause for Mr. Louboutin. I've been on a kick lately with wearing a neutral colors outfit and my nude 120mm Monocronana Sandals (if you haven't seen these, you're missing out.. see
here)
'Pop' of a bright color: Last, but surely not least, is the a pop of a solid color and boy, Victoria Baker Harber sure did it perfectly during LFW. With her classic black hat, sunglasses and top, the yellow really makes the outfit. (Not to mention her hair, who doesn't lust over locks like this?)
Without abandoning my normal beauty routine, (that is.. a pretty nude face) it's time to start thinking summer, bright colors and outside of my comfort zone. Lately, I've noticed myself gravitating towards photos of bright, red lips - yet every time I put some on myself, I immediately wipe my lips off like there's no tomorrow. However, I am ready to take the plunge. If bright red is too bold of a hue for your beauty routine, try a lighter but bright pink and work your way towards red.
