" StyleMint #5 " OUTFIT + GIVEAWAY!

Stylemint T Shirt in Gray
ASOS White Faux Fur Coat
American Apparel Riding Pants
Topshop Ambush Ankle Boots
Alexander Wang Diego Bucket Bag



Even though my Stylemint T Shirt reads I'm Almost Not Crazy, it reminds me of the movie, Almost Famous. Can you tell how excited I was to parade around town in this white faux fur coat? I've been vying for a white fur coat since last Winter. Abominable snowman references or not, I love this fuzzy fur coat. I can see myself already getting plenty of wear out of it. As for the T Shirt, I've always had a thing for heather gray pieces. A perfect staple for layering or wearing alone. Lastly, my 3 favorite go to items (riding pants, ankle boots and Alexander Wang bag) complete this ensemble.

" StyleMint #3 " Channeling Chanel

Gucci Sunglasses
StyleMint Mulholland T Shirt
H&M Faux Fur Coat
Maisonette 1977 Cable Knit Snood/Scarf
Hudson 'Nico' Skinny Leather Jeans
Zara Gold Sequin Clutch
Marc Jacobs Gold Watch
Topshop Ambush Ankle Boots



In March 2010, Lagerfeld shocked, surprised and inspired his Fashion Week attendees yet again. For his Fall 2010 Show, Polar Bears, Ice Caps and Couture all came into play. That collection in particular inspired my outfit today. This khaki green "Mulholland" T Shirt from StyleMint was my first choice to wear. Although I'm not literally dressed head to toe like a Polar Bear, this fuzzy faux fur sure does keep me warm. And the color of my T Shirt, in particular, sings Fall. I love that. You probably can't tell from these photos, but I was singing "All I Want for Christmas is You" in my head as I walked and skipped about "on set." I can't believe it's almost here, so near, yet so far. The saddest part is saying goodbye and having to count down 365 days for the next Christmas morning...

Rachel Roy + Neon Sweater + Zara Sequins

Rachel Roy Faux Fur Vest
ASOS Neon Chunky Knit Sweater
Hue Suede Leggings
Karen Walker Crazy Tortoiseshell Sunglasses
Zara Gold Sequin Clutch
Covergirl Lipstick
Chloe Sevigny x OC Mary Jane Platforms
Free People socks



You can't imagine my surprise when I was contacted by Rachel Roy to receive a special gift for the Holiday Season to wear on my Blog! I've admired Rachel Roy for quite a while now. I find her style to be polished and powerful. She exudes nothing but glamour and confidence. I'm so incredibly flattered to have been gifted this lovely faux fur vest. It fits my style perfectly.

And how do you like my new chunky knit neon sweater? I picked this bright color because I could easily see myself spicing up my Winter wardrobe with it. I am in lust with bright colors. These suede leggings are my new favorite Fall trend. They're very warm too.

" A|X " Metallic Snakeskin Print Jeans

Banana Republic Black Blouse
Faux Fur vest
Armani Exchange A|X Metallic Print Jeans
Maybelline Red Lipstick
Stella McCartney heels
Lodis Leopard iPad Case



These metallic snakeskin print jeans from Armani Exchange are perfect for the Holiday season. I can already envision myself pairing them with chunky sweaters at Dinner parties and with wool coats and blazers in February for New York Fashion Week. Inspired by both the change of weather and Olivia Palermo, I decided to pair these pretty pants with a faux fur vest and black blouse. The patent pointy toe Stella McCartney sling-backs are not only comfortable but complementing. The only pop of color necessary? Red... on my lips and on my iPad case (which conveniently doubles as a clutch bag).


What are you most excited about sporting this Holiday season?

Feels like Coachella

Forever 21 Faux Fur vest, Vintage Floppy Hat, Malibu Native Tank, Gap baggy shorts, Matiko wedges


I have a feeling both Coachella and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's summer style have been marinating subconsciously in the back of my mind. I literally threw this on seconds after being invited to an intimate concert by a local band. The music was folksy with a british back beat. Live instruments: cellos and tambourines, serenaded the melody. It was quite the experience. Music comes first in my list of favorites. Fashion and cooking closely following suit, of course. ;)

Wild Cat

Finally a faux fur that fits me right. I swear every time I try one on I look like a massive football player. Double score on the leopard print.

I watched Grease 2 over the weekend and revisited my archived crush on Maxwell Caulfield haha.. ;) and adoration for Michelle Pfeiffer's wardrobe all over again..



Nasty Gal leopard faux fur and scarf, American Apparel raglan, exposed zipper stud mini skirt, German tights (from a reader, thank you!) and Balenciaga sandals.

Banana Pancakes

It was so cold the day I took these photos. Supposedly this is the coldest Winter North Carolina has had in a while. I was silly to forget my gloves. The soft, cashmere snood (a scarf/hood hybrid) from Le Col kept my neck nice and toasty. I was excited to learn that Anna Wintour has one too. Finding the perfect Parka had been on my mind for the longest time. I found this one by chance in Forever 21, the absolute very last one and in my size, while Christmas shopping. And finally, the debut of the other Balenciagas I recently scored along with the sandals in my previous post. These are the platform loafers I have coveted since 2007. I've seen both Vanessa Traina and Ashley Olsen (two choice tastemakers) donning them in this particular color before, too.






Forever 21 parka, fur and studded rings, Le Col snood, Vintage watch, AA raglan, Superfine skinny jeans, Nightingale bag, Balenciaga suede platform loafers, eBay wolf and evil eye rings.
