A SCOOP OF GOOP

Aaaaahhhh Gwyneth....I was never a huge fan. 

 And then she started having babies and became this amazing mom. She became a little more 'real' to me, and I have to admit now that she IS a talented actress too.

But we're not here to talk about acting, so let's talk about fashion.

 She has been reborn into this amazing fashion icon and, in this picture, she has Stella McCartney to thank for it.

You can have the same look with this White Double Breasted Blazer  (32.80) and Lip Vintage Skinny Jeans (29.80) from Forever 21.

HOLD ME

If you appreciate rich color and the right amount of slouch in a handbag, you've probably already been drooling over Derek Lam's 'Blanche' tote. Something tells me this amazing looking bag is going to live up to her name and be next to unattainable...

waiting list + hefty price tag = not in this lifetime.

Here's your guilt-free fix.

 London Fog's 'Mackenzie' bag.

 She's not going to take all your money and push your friends away like 'Blanche', and she's still going to carry all your things when fall comes around. 

DO IT. LOVE IT.

London Fog 'Mackenzie' Handbag $70 at Overstock.com

Derek Lam 'Blanche' should be available at Barney's in the next couple of weeks for around $1700.

IF KIM WAS A...

 EXQUISITE HAND-CRAFTED AZTEC CALENDAR

Kim's dress is a piece of art, wowing us in a stunning array of colors. As is this beautiful Aztec calendar ($170) handcrafted by skilled artisans in Mexico.

My favorite is how the fine polished frame supports the intricate details, as do the high gloss patent platform pumps!

LOOK OF THE WEEK

MEET LOVELY LORI.

She's my ultimate 'guilt-free girl'. This effortless look consists of a vintage jersey houndstooth dress from her mother's closet, a Marc Jacobs clutch, Dereon Sunglasses, H&M Gold statement necklace, and forever 21 over the knee boots. 

What I've loved about Lori for years now is her ability to mix high and low. 

We've spent many an afternoon together cruising vintage stores across the globe, and with her connections to the designer world in N.Y.C, Paris, Africa, Montreal, and now L.A.- I know 

her unique style will never disappoint.

HOT BOY

This is hot, I don't know what else to say. C.P. Company designs for men are on point.

 It's fashionable, comfortable and has an heir of "whatever you want to do today is fine with me babe" vibe.

SAME TREND DIFFERENT BUDGET

L.A.M.B. undoubtedly wins hands down every time style wise. For me, Gwen Stefani can do no wrong in the shoe department. But Aldo and Forever 21 are a close 2nd and 3rd. No matter what you're willing to spend on the multiple buckle platform trend, you're gladiator needs will be met with all three.

MODERN AREA RUG

Sometimes one focal point on an outfit, or in a room is enough. 
Do what Kim has done an update a pair of basic black slacks with a drapey new blouse. 


 Or save some money on some new furniture and opt for a new modern area rug instead.

Modern Area Rug Hand tufted New Zealand Wool in grey and blue tones $285.00 from Burke Decor.

BIKER BABE

   

Current/Elliot "The Biker" Jacket $785

 Balmain Faded Denim Jacket $4435 

Soften your edgy look ever so slightly this spring by trading in your black leather for grey denim.  The Current/Elliot offers the studded detail, while the Balmain doesn't disappoint with the sharp shoulder. In my world, their both just out of reach price wise. But if you're living THAT life...DO IT AND LOVE IT.

FRONT STREET FASHION

Meet Cindy. 

This lovely lady never disappoints. She has shown me the true meaning of style. Wear what you like, and invest in some quality pieces, your signature look will soon fall into place. Great custom made items like these long leather gloves will never go out of style. She also has to take many of her items to be tailored as it's hard to find the PERFECT FIT off the rack. 

I wanted to capture her on one of the most miserable weather days (torrential down-pours and gusting winds) to show you can still put your best foot forward. 

p.s. A PRADA tote doesn't hurt either. 

DO IT. LOVE IT.

WHITE OUT

OK, it's beyond OTT, but for the truly bold risk-takers out there. Hunter Boots are on sale at Winners right now for around $80 in white and ummmmmmmm .........

SILVER.  Go for it, if you think you can work it.  Personally, I would channel my inner craft skills, tape over the name, and evenly spray-paint them any color I wish.

Just sayin.
