Life's A Playground

This is such an easy look that it's one of my favorite outfits. I also love mixing the floral lace on the jacket with the floral print on the dress.

Out & About: The Style Network Luncheon 2013

This past week I had the chance to attend a luncheon at the Ritz-Carlton in Tysons hosted by the Aba Agency for the who's who of D.C. area fashion (otherwise known as The Style Network). It's not every day that I get to take a couple of hours off from work to enjoy a three-course meal, so needless to say I was super excited. Although the food was delicious, the highlight for me was the fashion show that showcased the top trends to look forward to this spring. Check out some of my favorite looks below:

Menswear 

Flowy Silhouettes

Print Mixing

Black and White

Will you be wearing any of these trends this spring?

Kate Spade: Every Day is Saturday

This spring, Kate Spade will debut her new lower priced collection "Saturday." The line features fun and flirty prints in easy-to-wear shapes. I, for one, am very excited about this collection because we all know I love a good print. Plus, something about it is very Madewell-esque (which is a very high compliment coming from me). Check out some of the looks below:

Let me know what you think!

She's In Vogue

Recently I was gifted these special edition Vogue "Valentine's Day" sunnies. The shape gives me an old-Hollywood feel, with a geometric black heart gem on the side for a modern effect. I usually go for a classic wayfarer shape (like my trusty Ray Bans) but I love these shades. I can put them on for an instant touch of glam.

The OG

Even though I don't have an instagram (coming soon...maybe), I have definitely taken notice of all the amazing-ness that Beyonce has showcased on her new account. I loved the outfit above so much that it inspired me to try something similar and have an impromptu photo shoot (special shout out to the photographer Jasmine).

Sweatshirt:Obey; Leather Leggings: worldofleggings.com; Boots: Spring (old); Watch: Michael Kors; Shades: Dolce and Gabbana

Is anyone else as excited as I am for Bey's performance and the Destiny's Child reunion at the Super Bowl? 

Lookbook: Prabal Gurung for Target

It's been awhile since I have featured a lookbook on here, but this one got me extremely excited. Prabal Gurung's 80-piece collection is full of his signature prints and bold colors. As a huge fan of his designs, I can't wait to get my hands on this collection. The best part is that it is budget-friendly, with everything being priced under $200. Check out some of my favorite looks below:

The collection will be released on Feb. 10. Will you be buying?

Cool Weather Chic

Cardigan+Dress: Madewell; Tights: Hue; Boots:Asos; Watch: Michael Kors

Just stopped by to do a quick OOTD post. I am basically living in this printed cardigan from Madewell. It keeps me warm while not looking frumpy. I threw it over a knit dotted dress for some subtle print mixing. I also looove my new oxblood boots from Asos, so get ready because I'm sure you all will be seeing them a lot.

Hope you all are having a great start to the New Year! I have a feeling 2013 is going to be a good one ;)
