DSC_0063I had been on the hunt for the perfect long, black, faux fur vest for a while, but every time I came across one it was either too short, too expensive or looked too gorilla-like. Enter Topshop.com, where I found this pretty gilet, which is not only the perfect length, but it has pockets and is insanely soft. An excellent trifecta if you ask me. xo

I’ll be honest, I’m a bit of a country music girl at heart, which means I am a sucker for sappy love songs with a slight twang. What can I say, this type of music gives me serious nostalgia, because after all, I did grow up in the Pacific Northwest during the 90s listening to 94.1. For those of you from Seattle that know that station and liked it…’nuff said.

Anyway, on a fashion note, it’s safe to say I like the occasional worn-in cowboy boot or the perfect gingham shirt – styled either traditionally or quirkily. But, I find that I always end up mixing that type of item in with an unexpected piece, like a white and black tuxedo blazer and a girly dress, in this case. Personally, it’s more of a challenge and it brings that stereotypical item out of its comfort zone, making it just that more fun and interesting. I guess when it comes to fashion, I am all about juxtaposition and keeping things continually interesting…so here’s to more of that in the new year! xo

Casual Friday

I have to admit, I am sort of baffled that it’s already Friday when it still feels like Monday – I guess time really does fly. Well anyway to me, this is the perfect look for a chilly, winter weekend, (seeing that apparently it’s just around the corner) which consists of comfy separates, colorful layers and of course, my trusty camera bag. xo

P. S. If you are looking for the perfect boot, I highly recommend – actually I swear by - this style by Vince Camuto. They are so comfortable and cute that I now own them in four different colors. If that doesn’t convince you…

I finally had a chance to wear these amazing booties that a very sweet and lovely client bought for me this past Christmas. Aren’t they fun? I love them! I also love the idea of pairing leopard print with cobalt blue – such a pretty combination – so when I came across these bright beauties at Target for only $23, I was quite the happy camper. Target, once again, you win.

Ever since I cut my hair, I have wanted to go just a tad shorter. When my Dad took these photos, I strategically tucked my hair into my blazer to create a bit of a bob, just to see how it would look. I’m thinking it doesn’t come across half bad, but if I did snip some more inches, I would definitely style it with some loose, pretty waves and a bit more volume.

As for the outfit, I have been coveting this dress for a while so when it finally arrived (courtesy of “A” bringing it all the way from New York to Seattle just in time for my family’s holiday party) I was ecstatic. I love how it bells out ever so slightly, which makes me feel like very feminine and girly. But, since the pattern is fairly bold, I figured why not draw out the silvery hues and play them up with some black and white printed heels. Then to really top it off, add a bright blue belt, just for the fun of it. What the heck, right? Fashion is meant to be fun and playful, so here’s to more of that in 2012. xo

Happy Monday! I’m very excited to be kicking off a very fun and creative collaboration called the Forward Fashion Project, where I will be blogging and styling along with a handful of other awesomely talented bloggers. Basically, it’s like a big remix roundup where we each receive an item to start, style it up however we like, post it, and  then pass the item on to the next gal. Fun! So, my first item was this stunning Emily Cho clutch. Way to start off with a bang, right? Stay tuned over the next month to see what else comes my way…
