New Years Eve is just a few days away, and I cannot believe how fast 2011 went by! I created a fun New Years Eve outfit that is a little different from what you might usually wear. Instead of a little black dress or sequins, I thought a mini white dress would stand out more. Since the dress is so special, I kept all the accessories simple to not interfere. Hoop earrings and a cute cocktail ring are elegant, and add sparkle in a subtle way. I wanted to add some color to the outfit, which is why I thought Brian Atwood's hot pink pumps would be perfect!
I hope everyone is enjoying their last few days of 2011!
Having a "Go to Everyday Bag", in a great color is so important, because who wants to change bags every day to coordinate with each outfit? I know I don't! A neutral color, such as camel, is perfect for every day use. Camel works well with all colors, and creates a sophisticated and classic look. I have put together higher priced bags with similar bags that are priced more reasonably. What do you think?

Get ready for pastels! I'm currently loving Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer 2012 campaign, which captures two women in an ice cream parlour. I love the pastel pink and retro vibe, which makes the ad sweet and feminine. The ad was captured by Steven Meisel and includes Marc Jacobs' designs. The models are wearing ladylike dresses with lace, flowers, and other delicate embellishments, all perfect for spring!

Blair Waldorf is consistently on top of fashion trends. Her look is always classic and polished. She will never be seen in a boring or understated outfit. As you can tell from above, even her coats are unique, and yet so simple and easy to wear every day. When shopping for a winter coat many people stick to a plain and boring black coat. But why would you want to blend in when you can stand out with a fabulous coat? Below I have a few coats that will add color and excitement to any boring winter wardrobe!

I was so excited when I was asked to host a My Memories giveaway for their amazing digital scrapbooking software. My Memories has offered to give one lucky reader their own scrapbooking software! I'm not the best with computer photo programs, but I found this software to be incredibly easy to use. It has so many great features. I like that you can create an entire scrapbook or just a few individual pages. I had so much fun creating pages..
Not only will one lucky reader win the scrapbook software, but all my readers can enjoy $10 off their purchase on the My Memories site. This would make a great gift for the holidays!

With the holidays right around the corner, I created a simple outfit that can be worn to multiple occasions. I based this outfit around the Kendra Scott statement necklace, which I instantly fell in love with. It comes in so many pretty colors, and is a staple to any outfit. I paired the necklace with a basic blouse to make it stand out. You can never go wrong with warm tights, and a black bubble skirt, which are so easy to dress up. Sparkles are always fun, and this Vince Camuto clutch is perfect for the holiday season. This outfit is so easy to put together, and has eye catching pieces to make it pop.
Michael Kors is one of my favorite designers. When I saw his Spring/Summer 2012 Collection, I instantly fell in love with the fun animal prints, unique fringe texture, and pops of bright colors. I created this video lookbook for Michael Kors Safari themed collection. I incorporated videos, pictures, and interviews from Michael Kors about the collection. Let me know what you think!
