Spring has almost (and I say almost very lightly) sprung. Even though we still have snow on the ground that doesn't stop fashion and brands are launching their spring looks now. The two outfits below are great for this in between season. I recently was looking at the new Chuck Taylor Fresh Color line and fell in love. What's your favorite spring color palette? Xo,

Dear friends, Today it is snowing, hard. I want to take the opportunity of a slower day where the phones aren't ringing like crazy and the emails are not flooding in to write a few handwritten notes. I'm sure you all have a friend from college who you may have not spoken to in a bit or a relative that lives far away that you just want to say hi to! If you can, find a reason today to sit down and write something by hand. Nothing is more beautiful than a handwritten note and when you have beautiful stationary to write said note on, it's even that much better! Now get to writing!
Sincerely Yours,
Carly Here is a little Monday morning inspiration. The women below are a just a few who are running circles around the fashion industry right now. They are great inspiration for the everyday girl and great role models in general. Check them out! Michelle Obama: First Lady. She is a mother, a wife, and an independent woman! She dresses for her age and wears items that we can all get too! J.Crew is popular in her closest among other gorgeous designers. She has the perfect mix. Donna Karan: American Fashion Designer. This sexy lady knows how to dress the everyday true woman. With slimming colors and perfectly placed draping you will feel comfortable in anything DK! Karlie Kloss: American Supermodel. Karlie is your super cool girly best friend. You want to raid her closet and have a night in drinking wine and doing facials! She exudes sexy and girly and the pieces below are totally things I think she would own. Anna Wintour: Editor-in-Chief of Vogue. Power, Style, Class, are just a few words I can use to describe Ms. Wintour. The items below are some inspiration but you know her clothes are coming off the runway too! Who inspires you?
Xo, Carly Yesterday my sister and I decided to take advantage of the surprisingly good weather and go shopping at this beautiful outdoor shopping mall we love. We were realizing quickly that the stores were in the process of slowly turning over from winter to spring fashion. And it's such an odd season because you never know if you need the winter coat or just a trench, or maybe you can wear just a sweater! It's the between season that comes with excitement because the color starts coming back into your wardrobe and the layers start peeling off! Below you can see a few pieces I saw that would be perfect for this in between! Has anyone else gone shopping lately and been as confused as we were? Bring on spring! Xo,
Carly As quick as I was hit with a 24 hour bug is as quick as I dove into daydreaming. While feeling like I was dying on the couch and my sister was taking care of me I was being roped into Keeping up with the Kardashian re-runs. The absolutely picture perfect Greece episode came on and I couldn't contain my happiness just watching them enjoy the sunshine and sites. I had to virtually enjoy these sites while moping around in my bathrobe. Now, I need to plan this trip :-) When the Kardashian's left Santorini to go to Mykonos, they stayed at the most beautiful resort. Check it out here. The style I would choose when going to Greece (someday) is simple, casual, and flowing. Greece seems like the place where you just be and everything feels perfect. Now go pack your bags: Maxi Dress, Peasant Top, Sandals from Top to Bottom - 1, 2, 3. I need to start practicing some go-to styles in case I want to change things up on a vacation. My straightener can't be my only tool! Always dream...
Xo, Carly |
