Pops of color will do it for summer!

“Give yourself a few extra minutes before you run out the door to accessorize your look.  Accessories are a key element to any outfit”.  My constant advice to my clients.

Diane Kruger does it right with the colored shoe!  It’s not that hard, right? xo

My Stud Crush

I am in love with the stud trend I am seeing all over the glossies and runways, especially on shoes. It’s an effortless way to add chic style with a bit of an edge to your look without going over the top.  Oh Valentino how I love thee! xo

Jason Wu Does It Again!!

Michelle Obama stuns in a red custom made gown from designer Jason Wu, the same designer she wore in 2009!  I was so surprised but I love it! What do you think?  xo

First Lady Style & Grace, January 21, 2013

Today, January 21, 2013 at the 57th Presidential Inauguration, Michelle Obama was the epitome of first lady style.  Designer Thom Browne, an American designer, created the gorgeous blue ensemble she wore for the public swearing-in-ceremony of her husband, President Obama. The coat and dress were designed on the style of a man’s silk tie, not surprising, after all he is best known for designing men’s suits. I absolutely loved how she added the perfect accessories with the J Crew embellished belt, custom made Reed Krakoff boots, and the bright leather J Crew gloves. She looked stunning today, I can’t wait to see who she wears tonight! Oh, and look how adorable the girls look as well!  xo

Black Was Golden Last Night!

I know, I know,  I’m supposed to write about all of the gorgeous colorful gowns (red) I saw last night but black was the “it” color of the night for me. With plunging necklines (va va voom!), lace and fabulous accessories, the stars in black took the red carpet.  Here are some of my faves and one not so fave. I’m sorry Eva, you usually knock it out of the park but this Pucci dress swallowed you! xo

 

 

 

Gowns Galore In DC!

The Presidential Inauguration will be held on January 21, 2013 in our beautiful Washington, D.C.  While history and politics will take center stage,  fashion and style will definitely take a leading role.  While most of us are dying to see what (who;) the First Lady will wear through-out the celebration, many will be making their own sartorial choices for the Inaugural Balls and Galas. Take a cue from some of my favorite gowns and exude elegance and glamour on this historical evening. xo

Happy New Year! Wishing you lots of love, color and glamour in 2013!

Happy new year DC fashionistas, it’s been a while, I know! I hope you enjoyed your family, friends, loved ones and festivities over the holidays, I did and I cherished every exhausting minute.   January  is now upon us (where did December go?) and it’s time to think about yourself now that you’ve shopped until you dropped for everyone else. This year, I’m taking inspiration from Pantone’s color of the year: Emerald. It’s gorgeous, rich, elegant, and has a timeless and chic feel.  Emerald is a color that will blend beautifully into your wardrobe with just a hint or an entire glamourous look. It’s beauty will definitely lift your style spirits and confidence in 2013.  xo 

Minimalism

Looking chic without trying too hard, love it!  Three key pieces, a pop of lip color and pulled back hair, how easy is that? That’s what a well-edited closet will do for you;) Princess Charlene of Monaco does it incredibly well while celebrating the opening of Versace’s Soho Store, in Versace, of course. xo
