So in love with St. Lucia

WEARING:

We had a phenomenal time in St. Lucia at Stonefield Villas and would absolutely recommend anyone to go.  If you're an adventure seeker you'll be happy to hike trails, explore sulfer springs, and waterfalls.  If you're a beach goer there are some stunning beaches, we loved the quaintness of Sugar beach, as well as it's view of the pitons and off beach snorkeling.

Every blogger lately has had a long coat draped over their shoulders: Neutrals, pops of color, and print dominate the topper of the second.  If you need an end of winter pick me up, you might consider adding one more style of coat to your collection.  I was so happy I did!  Pair your winter pieces with spring now, all it takes is a colorful handbag and/ or nail color to brighten any mood until spring arrives.

Hustle

Wearing: Burberry fur collar trench, DVF wrap dress, Chanel Aviators, Valentino Rock Stud clutch, Stuart Weitzman platform heels.

 Fell in love with American Hustle, IN LOVE!  Don't get me started on the fabulous 70's fashion... I could go on for days....  Amy Adams killed it in vintage wrap dresses and larger then life collars, which in turn inspired me to pull my own 'hustle' outfit together pronto.

She's Got The Look

New Obsession: 

Gigantic, Huge, Lovely, Catapillar Like Eyebrows.

I am madly in love with eyebrows. The frame on a picture, without them the image cannot put it's best foot forward.  Case in point, Lily Collins.  Her eyebrows are my ultimate goal, they are so beautiful!!  

I have been working with our local Anastasia Eyebrow representative at Nordstrom Oak Park, Sally.  She has done a wonderful job giving my unruly brows a nice shape, and now I'm dipping a toe into the waters of eyebrow tools.   The following items are my fave so far:

Nars eyebrow brush and Anastasia eyebrow gel.  The brush is step one, using an eye shadow to fill in, the gel is step two, holding everything in place.

When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
and I go: la la la la la
she's got the look."- Roxette

Red Suede Shoes

 I've heard so many people commenting on 'how to wear black and not be boring'.  There have been more then a few blogs featuring the idea lately as well.  My question: Who ever said black was boring in the first place???  For me, it's the perfect palatte to highlight fabulous accessories... DUH.

 Enter: Enzo Angiolini red suede shoes.

Hi!: Michael Kors pony hair camo handbag.

Hello: Vintage turquoise earrings (purchased last year on Valentines day in cabo!)

 Oh Hey: Scorpion bracelet (purchased years ago in NYC visiting a bff!)

(also wearing: vintage lace top, Jbrand denim, Milly jacket,  Chanel aviators.)

The moral of my story: Start with a blank black canvas, and see where it takes you.

Q&A: How do I wear resort/ spring items now?

(Chloe Marcie medium handbag, Tory Burch bug blouse, Rag and Bone denim, Frye booties, Chanel aviators)

Are you sick and tired of winter?  Feeling so cold all you want to do is hibernate in your PJ's?  In serious need of Vitamin D?

You need a POP of spring color to perk up your winter wardrobe!  This is the epitome of 'buy now, wear now' resort fashion, even if you have no travel pans.  All you need is a fresh color, a crisp new white something or other, and a new attitude towards your wardrobe.  Here are a few ideas:

*Most of our blouses are all season.  You should be wearing them year round: on their own in summer, and layered up for fall/ winter.  Do not put away blouses for the winter just because you think they have 'summer' colors.  One of the prettiest winter combos is pastels and cream!

*Carry your summer handbag for a week or two.  Okay, maybe not when there's inches of snow on the ground, but on a sunny day you should wear a summer bag for a change during the winter months.  You'll be surprised how happy a cheerful color can make you feel after months of black...

*Give your skin every advantage!  Drink Water!  Get a new concealer ( I am forever sold on Nars, it's magic! )  Consider a Vitamin D serum: my fave is Dr. Gross!
