Throwback Thursday ~ LBJ

Earlier this week I was going through the un-blogged picture files on my computer and found these from last summer.  For some reason they never made it to the blog even though this is one of my very favorite outfits so I decided to post them now!  Better late than never!  I mean there is a "Throwback Thursday" for a reason, y'all! ;-)

I love little black jumpsuits or LBJ's.  They are a great alternative to the little black dress or LBD's.  I think both have a place in your closet as wardrobe staples!  I styled this particular jumpsuit for a date night, with floral sandals, a fab clutch and bling!

~ What I'm Wearing ~

Little Black Jumpsuit: Piperlime (SO sad Piperlime is no longer!!) | Obsessed with this one and I need this one in my life! So on trend!

Black and White Printed Clutch: Urban Expressions | Similar

Floral Lace-up Sandals: Steve Madden | This season's version

Necklace and Earrings: Stella & Dot (retired) | This necklace and these earrings are some of my current favorites! Perfect for summer!

Bracelets: Stella & Dot | Bangle, Crystal, Cuff

Sunnies: Coach (old) | Similar

What do you think about jumpsuits?  Have they replaced the LBD in your wardrobe?  It's hard to believe that my hair was so much shorter last summer ~ and my body was much thinner! I'm loving my now longer hair but I've got to work on getting back the thinner body! ;-)

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?

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?

Star 94 and Isaac Mizrahi

This past Thursday evening I had the privilege of co-hosting a Sip and Shop ~ Girl's Night Out with Star 94 Atlanta and my friend (and favorite client) Cindy Simmons at a new outlet center here in Georgia, The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta.  Summer trends was my theme for the night's event and I worked with a few stores at the outlet center to pull examples of the trends for the attendees to get an idea of what I was talking about.  My top trends for summer are ~ jumpsuits, kimonos, nautical, pastels, white accessories, florals, cage sandals and bucket bags. I borrowed the chicest navy and white jumpsuit that I gave a nautical vibe to with a rope handled straw bag and red, white and blue accessories from Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5th, bought a fun floral kimono from Love Culture and pulled the rest of my trends list from the amazing Isaac Mizrahi NY store.  The girls at the Isaac store were also kind enough to lend me a head to toe look for the evening AND provide an entire outfit for the night's giveaway!

The Scribble Studio provided a really cool custom chalkboard for the event

Goody bags for the evening's attendees

Loved working with Star 94!  They have been my favorite radio station since the early 90's!

Jumpsuit and accessories provided by Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5th and styled by me

Dress, bag and watch provided by Isaac Mizzrahi NY for the night's "guess the price" drawing giveaway!  What a fabulous prize!  I wish I could have entered! (I'm totally crushing on the adorable and on trend bucket bag!!)

Cindy and I with the outfit's winner, Tina Divito!  Lucky lady!

Let's talk about my outfit for a minute...
Isaac Mizrahi NY provided my look for the evening and I felt like a princess!  Isaac has created a line of the most perfect party dresses in a rainbow of gorgeous colors at a really affordable price.  The fit and flare design flatters just about every figure and... the dress has pockets!!  Doesn't every girl love a dress with pockets?!  The dress can be worn for all kinds of occasions, from weddings and parties paired with a great pair of heels and some statement jewelry to a more casual event with wedges or flats and a denim jacket.  And these heels are to die for!!  They are now at the top of my want list!
What I'm Wearing ~
Mikado Party Dress (I'm wearing it in mint but it comes in tons of colors from black to pink and everything in between!)
Lillie Floral Shoe
Triple Chain Necklace (similar here and here)
Geometric Sunglasses in Ivory

My blogger boo, Nikka Shae of Oh! Nikka, came out to support me!  (Selfie's are a must when bloggers get together!)

My bestie, Sonia, and my high school friend, Christine, also came to the event to show their support!

Loving this dress and the entire Isaac Mizrahi NY store!

It's the kind of dress that makes you want to kick up your heels!

This Isaac Mizrahi NY store is the only year-round Isaac store in the US!  He has another seasonal store in the Hamptons.  Thank you, Isaac, for creating such beautiful, timeless clothes and accessories!  I truly felt like a princess for the evening!  And thank you Star 94 for putting on such a fun event and asking me to co-host, it was a blast!!
