The fall season is right around the corner & even though it’s no fun to think that the sun filled summer days are coming to an end, it IS exciting to think about what we’ll want to wear this fall! So far, I’m loving all the rich Toffee & Bordeaux colors that remind me off rich coffee, caramels & glasses of red wine.

Who is on your fashion radar this spring? I love to get inspired by those who are a little offbeat & bold. Solange Knowles has such an incredible stand out personal style that is all her own. From her amazing hair to her bright & bold color choices, she always wears something eye catching with her own unique edge.

As a singer, songwriter, DJ and Mom, she is a true inspiration with amazing talent and style too. Here’s to marching to your own beat, living life on your own terms & wearing whatever you want that’s cool…… The Icon- Solange Knowles:

The Look #5: Sweet Summer

April 26, 2016April 26, 2016Leave a comment

Sometimes it feels so good to put on something that’s just simply pretty! And what better time than for summertime in the city ? Lately I’m loving all the sweet pastels, muted tone romantic looks and ethereal dresses. You can toughen something sweet & soft with a little bit more of a hard edged accessory. Here is some inspiration & a touch of romance for a “Sweet Summer in the City” look.

The Inspiration #5 SWEET SUMMER

Spring is in the air…..dreaming about sun filled days in the park, green grass, pretty flowers, sitting by a lake….those first few days of warmth when you put on a new dress and sandals and you can actually leave your jacket at home….so good to be back in New York City after so many years in California! Experiencing the extremes of cold weather and rain again makes the anticipation of sunny spring & summer days so much sweeter…..

The Inspiration #5: Sweet Summer

rose gold, ballerina tulle, romantic interiors, pink champagne, fresh cut peonies & tulips…..

The Look #3: Enchanted Fairytale

I’m loving all the dark bohemian floral prints for fall . You can easily add a little edge to your “woodland fairytale look” by pairing a floral dress with a Biker jacket or a great Faux fur coat. Complete the look with pointy heels or boots & some great accessories……

THE INSPIRATION #3 ENCHANTED FAIRYTALE

July 8, 2014July 9, 20141 Comment

Just starting to enjoy the beginning of summer, sunny days, a little off schedule and just enjoying the moment…but at the same time looking ahead fashion-wise to Fall 2014 and Resort/ Spring 2015! Loving the mood of some of the collections that recently came down the runway, especially the jewel tone colors, prints and textures & just the richness of it all…

some styles and collections remind me of an enchanted forest….like the models came to life from an old fashioned fairytale and landed in the modern world.

THE ICON #2- Lisa Bonet- The Modern Bohemian

February 4, 2014Leave a comment

One of my favorite style icons from the 80’s and 90’s was Lisa Bonet who played Denise Huxtable on The Cosby Show. A true free spirit, she seemed to wear whatever she felt like & to do whatever she wanted. She was not only beautiful, but also a talented actress and to this day she has a look that can not really be defined in terms of race, age or any other categories. She is a true bohemian who seems to live a sort of gypsy life, dropping in and out of the Hollywood scene at her own will & time.

Her past style both on and off The Cosby Show was original & a true inspiration…..and her present “Earth Mama” look still represents the ultimate “Modern Bohemian”: my Icon #2- Lisa Bonet.

The Inspiration #2: Bohemian Modern

Now that the year is finally coming to a close and things are starting to wind down for the holidays, it’s the perfect time to start dreaming about what you are going to be wearing next spring! I’m loving the new “Modern Bohemian” look that was all over the Resort & Spring 2014 runways….

If you are one of the lucky ones jetting off to somewhere warm and tropical for the holidays, you might want to channel your inner free spirit while packing your suitcase. But, if not, you can still dream about frolicking on the beach or speeding away in your vintage convertible in some of these cute outfits…..

As always, it’s that little bit of contrast that makes any outfit exciting, so combine some glam accessories with your Boho look for a truly modern aesthetic.
