Distressed

I love distressed jeans and the more distressed the better.  The Hubs hates my distressed jeans and offers to buy me new hole-free jeans every time I wear them.  But I'm a trend-loving fashion stylist and he's a burgundy, navy and khaki wearing businessman.  I think I'll keep wearing my distressed denim, thanks! ;-)

What I'm Wearing ~
Distressed Denim: American Eagle {similar}
Lightweight Sweater: Old Navy
Bag: Stella & Dot
Floral Pumps: Isaac Mizrahi
Tropicana Necklace: Stella & Dot
Janice Studs: Stella & Dot
Amelie Sparkle Bracelet, Strength Bracelet

What do you think about the distressed denim trend?

In Transition

We're in transition ~ transition from winter to spring ~ and sometimes knowing what to wear can be difficult.  One day it's 80+ and the next day it's 40.  Or it starts off cold in the morning only to warmup by 30 degrees later in the day.  Layering is the way to go this time of the year.  Cardigans, denim jackets, utility jackets, blazers and leather jackets are the perfect completer pieces.  Easy to pull off if it gets warm but look great if you have to keep them on all day.

~What I'm Wearing ~
Faux Leather Jacket: Piperlime (sold out) Similar here and it's under $100!
Sweater: Gap (old) Similar
Leopard Pants: Isaac Mizrahi NY (last year) Similar
Booties - Guess (old) Similar
Bag: Vintage Louis Vuitton via Agora Vintage Athens (This one is perfect for spring/summer!)
Necklace: Stella & Dot
Earrings: Stella & Dot
Lips: Julep Plush Pout Lip Crayon

I fell in love with these pants the minute I saw them.  The party in the front business in the back is so unique!  I wish they were still available!  I searched everywhere for you but they are completely sold out.  I did find solid leopard pants here and here.

Spring In Your Step

Nothing puts spring in you step like a great pair of floral pumps!  I added these beauties by Isaac Mizrahi to my shoes collection last summer and every time I wear them I want to do a happy dance.  I couldn't wait to pull them out the minute there was a hint of spring!  I found several other fabulous pairs so you can put a little spring in your step as well!

What could be more perfect than pointy toes, watercolor flowers and bows?

Gladiators

I realized the other day that even though I've worn these knee-high gladiator sandals a bunch this season I haven't posted them as of yet on the blog.  It will be boot season before long (Yay!! My favorite!) so I decided I better get on the ball!  Gladiators have been super hot trend this spring/summer.  And it's a trend that's fun to wear because they add a little edge to any outfit, even something simple like a tank, cutoffs and a scarf-turned-into-a-vest like I'm wearing here!

Knee-High Gladiator Sandals: DSW - they also come in tan.  Both are on a great end-of-season sale!
Black Tank: Old Navy
White Denim Cutoffs: American Eagle via Plato's Closet - Similar here from Old Navy  (and on a crazy good sale!)
Bucket Bag: Isaac Mizrahi New York (I'm obsessed!)
Vest: It's actually a scarf I tied into a vest (see my post here on how-to). Similar scarf here.
Sunnies: Coach

What do you think about the gladiator trend?

Styling Joggers For Now, Transition and Fall

Earlier this week I shared with you how I styled these joggers for the Girls Day Out event with Star 94 at The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta (if you missed it you can see the post here).  In today's post I'm showing you three ways to style the same joggers ~ for now, for summer to fall transition and for fall/winter.

Striped Tank: Old Navy (on a crazy good sale right now!)
Striped Wedge Sandals: Kate Spade
Leopard Cross-Body (Cross-body bags are perfect for a busy girl on the go!  I love a big bag but cross body's are quickly becoming my go-to bags!): River Island
Striped Camp-Shirt: Calvin Klein
Luxe Joggers: Spend or Save
Pink Cross-Body: Michael Kors
Floral Loafers: ModCloth
Striped Hooded Pullover: Spend or Save
Leopard Wedge Booties (I just ordered these for fall!!): Isaac Mizrahi New York
Red Bag: Isaac Mizrahi New York

(Can you tell besides joggers I'm obsessed with stripes and leopard?!)

If you don't currently own luxe joggers I would highly suggest you get some today!  They will carry you through each season in style and comfort!!

Lace, Denim and Isaac Mizrahi New York

 One of the many awesome things about my job as a stylist/personal shopper is getting to work with and develop relationships with great shops and brands!  Last Thursday I co-hosted a girls day out event for Star 94 Atlanta at the Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta and got to work once again with one of my all time favorite shops, Isaac Mizrahi New York.  There are only two Isaac stores in all of the US and we are so very lucky to have one of them right here in Georgia (the other is in the Hamptons)!  The day before the event I headed to Isaac to style one of two outfits I would be showing at Thursday's event.  I like to dress chic but comfortable for styling because the day usually involves wrangling a manikin or two!  These denim boyfriend shorts have become this summer's go-to's.  I literally wear them almost every day and since I bought them for all of $8.00 at Plato's Closet that makes cost per wear less than a penny! Whoot!

What I'm Wearing ~
Denim Boyfriend Shorts: American Eagle via Platos Closet (Love these from Gap)
Lace Kimono: Chicwish
Cage Sandals (they have barely left my feet all summer!!): Steve Madden via T.J.Maxx (similar)
Bag: Tory Burch (LOVING this one for fall!!)
Tassel Necklace: (my absolute favorite!!) Stella and Dot

The amazing windows at Isaac Mizrahi New York

One of my happy places!

The outfit I styled for the Star 94 Girls Day Out event.  I sadly didn't get a picture of the manikin in the outfit so I had to recreate it here...
Sleeveless Stripe Sheath Dress: Isaac Mizrahi New York
Pink and Orange Shoes: Isaac Mizrahi New York (These would be cute too!)
Pink Bag: Isaac Mizrahi New York (LOVE this one!)
Sunnies: Isaac Mizrahi New York 

These beauties came home with me! I wore the shoes in this post and they are finally mine! 
Two Tone Leather Bucket Bag: Isaac Mizrahi New York
Floral "Lillie" Pumps: Isaac Mizrahi New York
