Trend Report: Suits

The new suit is strictly monochromatic, or at least in the same color family (remember: color-blocking is still trendy).  Stick to either a neutral palette like pinks, grays, whites, or creams, or go bold and primary with reds, blues, yellows, or even flower-printed (the chrysanthemum is a big deal this season).  Pair with simple, pointed-toe heels in either a solid leather, patent leather, or subtle flower or animal print, minimal jewelry and an oversize glam clutch and the look is complete!  #lucky #outfitideas #trends

We know that wedges (especially raffia ones names ‘Cabos‘ for God’s sake) are a summer thing. But break the tradition and try wearing a pair this winter. We like ours with thick, woolly white tights, a loose fitting skirt, a chambray shirt, a great blazer, and a really sexy, printed scarf. The tights will keep you warm and whoever told you it wasn’t “cool” to wear socks with sandals was wrong. Really wrong. Try it! We are.

With winter fully upon us, it’s time to go searching for the dreaded puffer coat. This year, don’t fear! The new shapes are far less full and more streamlined to help you look stylish even as the snowflakes fall. #lucky #outfitideas #trends

Each day we scour the net looking for our favorite items, deals, and trends. Here’s what we discovered today!

Get fancy in a feminine tea dress for Thanksgiving! We love the subtle bell shape and the waist band on the ‘Chrysanthemum‘ tea dress from designer Tracey Reese. The pretty print and rich coppery tones make this dress the perfect pick for holiday festivities. Pair with strappy kitten heels like the ‘Geneva‘ from Barefoot Tess and simple diamond or pearl earrings for a super lady-like look.

There’s something so satisfying about the way a school uniform looks. Think about adding individual pieces to your winter wardrobe that are reminiscent of walking down the halls at Bryn Mawr in the 50’s and 60’s. We’re loving mid-length, pleated skirts (in plain navy, grey, or in a punchy plaid) and thigh high socks to add a little sex appeal. How perfect are the ‘Kelsey‘ oxfords from B.F.T. by Barefoot Tess for topping off the look? Also available in black tweed and cognac houndstooth.

Each day we scour the net looking for our favorite items, deals, and trends. Here’s what we discovered today!

It’s safe to say that we’re always on the hunt for the perfect shirt. Right now, we’re loving black silk and we’re not the kind to say no to our little friend from the 90’s: chiffon. Equipment is known for making perfect shirts, and their latest collection demonstrates all the reasons why we love them, including excellent fit, fine craftsmanship, and a flawless understanding of how a modern woman likes to dress. Snag yourself the ‘Earl‘ chiffon-paneled silk shirt. Perfect for pairing with skinny jeans and a jacket or neatly tucked into a pencil skirt with high heels. Love!

Each day we scour the net looking for our favorite items, deals, and trends. Here’s what we discovered today!

One of the hardest aspects (style wise) of the oncoming winter months is the challenge of finding cute, sexy, fashionable cold weather gear. Our closets are full of chunky knit hats, bulky thermal gloves, and unworn scarves that are either too itchy, dated, or thin. Point your mouse to Scoop NYC and peruse an amazing selection of gorgeous cold weather pieces that will surely change your luck and ensure that you wear what you buy. We’re really digging the knit berets, especially this ombre one with tiny sequins by millinery master, Eugenia Kim. The ‘Julie‘ ombre beret is soft, slouchy, and a little sparkly, making it the perfect topper to add interest to bold wool pea coats and downy puffers. A must!

Trend Report: Black & Blue
 
An atypical pairing, black and blue are big for fall and winter. Pick either classic separates, like a great shift dress, tailored pants, or a great blazer and put them together, or go for dresses with black and blue detailing and accents. The hottest blue right now is cobalt, but navy is also a great choice. Look for accessories in black or blue as well!
