I cannot tell you how obsessed I have been with chevron lately. I've been seeing this zig-zag line pattern everywhere and in the most unexpected places. It has such a presence and can completely make a room. It's the perfect venue for a bright color and can make an outfit without much need to accessorize. It's bold, daring, modern and fabulous!

Just because summer is over shouldn't mean that all our striped pieces need to take a back seat to our fall wardrobe.  They are the perfect layering pieces that look amazing under a jacket or topped off with a scarf. Pair a striped top with bright color bottoms and you can't possibly go wrong. 

Happy Halloween!!!

Red Lips

The idea of red lipstick has been around since the time of Cleopatra and Elizabeth I. It's timeless, elegant, classic and never fails to look downright amazing. It's an intimidating trend but doesn't have to be. Here are my top five choices:

1. M.A.C. Ruby Woo - for a great matte look
2. Nars Jungle Red - more of an orange-based red
3. Armani Hollywood Red - a light, silky red; the kind of red Marilyn Monroe herself would wear
4. Revlon "Love That Red" - this classic first hit the cosmetic counter in 1951, and continues to wow with its perfect blend of blue undertones
5. YSL Red Muse - a deep fushia red that will make heads turn

I'm not sure who came up with the rule "no white after labor day" but the fall runways are seriously defying this fashion no-no. Personally, white is one of my favorite colors to wear during the winter. I mean, snow is white, right? The crisp look of white is bold, feminine and unexpected, not to mention a great way to stand out in a crowd full of dreary blacks and browns...So I dare you, whip out those white skinny jeans and pair them with some fur!

Fabulous Fur

As a fan of warm weather, there is one thing that gets me excited about the winter months...FUR! There is nothing that glams up an outfit quite like adding a little fur on a collar or a pair of boots. But the most fabulous of all is the fur coat. Nothing can beat it. Unfortunately, living in Austin I'm going to have to wait awhile before opening the fur closet...
