This summer I want to wear white and only white …
all day, everyday, non-stop white! 

Oh and when I say white, you know I mean white, with a whole mess of bright colors and geometric patterns, right?

Summer in the city brings out a different side of me in all elements, including my style. I don't usually get tanner (I'm addicted to SPF and terrified of skin cancer) but my sunglasses get bigger, shorts get shorter (hopefully not too short) and my legs actually stay shaved -- well most days, so of course my color palette needs a complimentary makeover and my sights are set on bright white.

A Carrie Moment

It's no secret that I'm obsessed with Carrie Bradshaw - she will always be one of my favorite TV fashionistas (along with Blair Waldorf). Carrie changed fashion for everyone and I look to her style almost everyday for inspiration. Every time I twirl through NYC in tulle I think of CB! Today was no different, so I had to share this very, Carrie moment filled with stripes, tulle and of course, stilettos.

Non-Stop Stripes

I'm feeling stripey today by twirling through the meatpacking district in the pattern I just cannot stop wearing (or buying) - black and white stripes!

Among the Flowers

Today every things coming up roses … well daffodils? yes, i think those are daffodils - I'm really not sure, I don't know much about other flowers because I'm extremely loyal to peonies and sometimes dabble in gerber dasies…  Anyways, every things coming up daffodils (or something) in my seemingly basic b&w look. But don't fret, there is an element of surprise under this striped trench … so stay tuned!

Strawberry Bubblegum

I wore this look last night, when I stepped out to BucketFeet's pop up shop in Soho. BucketFeet is a super cool, unique show concept - all the shoes are playfully patterned and designed by different artists, each with their own unique style. Mine are designed by Miami based artist, Bad Panda, who drew inspiration from his home town to create my kicks.

Highlighter

Today, Waffles and I are taking a walk on the bright side with contrasting highlighter hues and my new neon reebok skycapes!

That 90's Chick

The 90's are back, and better than ever! Crop tops, sweaters around the waist and the Backstreet Boys are all the rage (okay, maybe I made that last one up cause I want it that way). Today I'm doubling up on the 90's trend 

French Kissing in the USA

It appears I'm a bit culturally confused:

Parisian hat, Union Jack and very american ripped jeans… oh my!

Spoiler alert -  I may or may not also through up a super awesome peace sign (asian tourist style) at the bottom of the post…. please try to contain your excitement. 

Denim x Denim

Today I'm Overallin' … again! I dabble in the classics by pairing denim on denim with classic white and other neutrals. 

Cotton Candy

Happy Monday, dolls! Hope everyone's weekend was pretty & perfect! Today I was inspired by pink & blue, so I paired these two bright hues together for today's look!

Spring Picnic

 The weather has been up and down lately, mother nature just doesn't want to commit to Spring! Anyways a few weeks ago we had our first warm weekend, so a few friends and I celebrated with a picnic in central park! Sorry for this delayed post, I had some computer issues, and thought these pictures were lost but the good old apple genius bar (and my boyfriend Paris) came to the rescue, so today I'm presenting the first picnic of the season… eek!

What's a Picnic without Levain…

The Conductor

Overalls are a big, yet somewhat of controversial trend for Spring. Some love it, and some hate it but I had to give it a try!

Stripes & Stuff

We are in the full swing of Spring (finally) and NYC is just beautiful! I want to wear crop tops & floral every single day, and today I did just that!

Just Peachy

 Happy Wednesday! Spring is in the air, and pastel colors are all the range! So today I decided to double up on a pinky hue by pairing peach with coral for a look that screams SPRING!

What to wear for spring 10 pieces >> 100 outfits !!!!

Oh Hello Spring!
In the spirit of rebirth - today's post is a crash course in a closet makeover!

A few Spring investment pieces can really reinvigorate your whole wardrobe and make you feel brand spankin' new for Spring! So today I'm helping you build your spring wardrobe!

Back by popular demand, here is the spring edition of 10 pieces >> 100 outfits - where I show you how to get 100 outfits by investing in 10 new pieces for spring and working with the basics you probably already have in your closet!

THE INVESTMENTS:

Fun flats, novelty prints and florals are all the rage this Spring so your investments should include a Novelty print blouse, Patterned Sneakers and a Floral dress. This spring is about playing with proportion, so Midi Skirts and Crop Tops are a closet must have! Ripped Jeans are back and boyfriends are the new skinnies so tackle two trends at once with distressed boyfriend jeans. Pastels are huge for Spring so invest in a Pastel leather jacket to fight off the occasional spring chill and a complimentary pastel pump. These pieces will wear well together so pick colors that can play off each other without being too matchy-matchy. I suggest two shades of powder blue, but lilac and orchid or baby pink and dusty pink will also work! Round out your wardrobe with two patterned basics like a polka dot (or graphic) blouse, and a trench with a twist!

THE BASICS:

I'm a firm believer in basics! Every gal should have a few statement necklaces, denim shirt, jean jacket, crisp white button up, black tank, brown belt and wear-every-day-wedges in her wardrobe. Plus you probably have a simple graphic tee, full skirt, white jeans and metallic gladiators since these were such big trends in the past! Last summer was all about the Zara skort, which has quickly become a closet staple and closet must-have!

Shop the Basics:

I first created this post for fall when I created 100 outfits out of the 10 investment pieces I bought for the new season // see the full post here // After getting an overwhelming amount of requests to do it again, I knew I had to recreate it for spring! So without further a due, here's you ten ways to wear each investment piece!

This year, spring florals are a little more graphic and bold. So a classy, floral, tube dress is a spring must!

Paris Afternoon

I've been a little Paris obsessed lately, I blame the combination of Paris fashion week and the first sights of spring. With bright prints, fresh flowers and baguettes on the brain (I'm not sure why I think baguettes are a spring thing?), I can't help by pair stripes with a printed scarf for another Parisian-esuqe wannabe ensemble.
