One of the things that I love most about my look is that I like to blend a lot of styles that may not seem to work and yet they do! I am all about a retro/vintage look - so I'm always interested in whatever Anthropologie happens to carry at the moment (at one time being a manager at the Rockefeller Center came in handy seeing the ever changing collection. I love that this top has a lot of embellishment and is super simple to pair over jeans or leggings. Of course, it's essential to have a great pair of Hudson Jeans. What I love about this pair is that they have a black coating which has a bit of a rocker look which makes your outfit go to the next level in terms of an edgy look.

Now with this retro top paired with the rocker chic pants, accessories are called for to take this look a head turning presentation. I love python and this gorgeous bag from CC Skye is a huge bag and one that is definitely classic. With the gold embellishments on the bag, you'll want to have a piece by Victoria Tillotson who is not only a fab jewelry designer but a teacher at the School of Visual Arts here in NYC. Not only would I love to wear this cuff but it says a lot as I typically love wearing sterling silver as opposed to gold. Finally to complete this look, I love the heels by Jessica Simpson which have a great retro femme effect. I feel that python is the perfect way to add a classic element to a look while making it pop and together all of this works well whether you're going out for drinks, meeting with investors, doing a run through of a show and more!

I love hump days! It's the middle of the week and a great benchmark to see what has been worked on and what can still be done with a few days ahead! As Editor in Chief of Kitten Lounge, I get an amazing opportunity to see a lot of great products and to interact with so many great showrooms, brands, designers and so much more. While in Vegas in August, I was so happy to meet Casey of Hudson Jeans (she does their Social Media and various elements of marketing) and to walk with her at ENK Shows Vegas. With so many days hitting all the shows, I started to embrace my love for the maxi dress, Ted Rossi cuffs (I never travel without a number of them), large cocktail ring and of course a cute necklace. It's the act of styling a simple look to show my personality and to present an effortless look whether I'm walking the red carpet, tradeshows, showrooms or wherever I happen to be! I'm obsessed with accessories and I love large pieces. I brought a little of a boho-chic Grecian vibe to everyday that I was at the shows (you would too if it was 100 degrees). As I walked around people asked if I styled (especially when I told them I had just completed an episode of the reality show, To Be a Star, where I was the Style Mentor/Judge for aspiring models who were learning about the importance of having a look. Although I have worked with a select group of people, work with a few showrooms in the city and have been called in on a photoshoot - it wasn't something that I really thought I was doing. But the fact of the matter is that there is no better reward than showing someone how they can take elements of their style and add to it to create an enhanced look! If you're a busy individual who loves the idea of working with someone with great relationships of designers that you may not be familiar with, want to embrace accessories (I feel that they are the outfit) and love seeing your style progression, then feel free to contact me as I would love to work with you! So the answer is yes, I'm an Editor and Stylist!

Did anyone get caught in the random rain that caught us off guard yesterday (ok maybe it didn't take you off guard but the day started out so pretty)? This weather is all about layers or finding the right way to wear fall when it's not to chilly and yet not so warm anymore. I just purchased the grey version of this ruched sweater and I LOVE it. It has a nice look, the perfect neckline and can be dressed up. I too wore a cute scarf and paired it with one of my lariat necklaces; however, this piece from Virgins, Saints and Angels is the perfect compliment. I love how ornate it looks and the line has been one that I have followed over the past few years. A gorgeous necklace deserves to be paired with an awesome ring. I love that this wrapped ring definitely assists you in getting your point across (if you talk with your hands extensively, you'll enjoy this added look) and of course - pair this with jeans. I love my Hudson jeans that are in this dark wash with a faded look. Whether you pair this with heels or ballet flats it has such an easy look that you're always perfectly dressed!

Sometimes keeping it simple is nice! It's felt like a long week and I've been hitting a lot of events. As much as I love my traditional tee, jeans and heels - I love my graphic tee and jeans as well! So today, I kept it casual with a simple necklace (the knot necklace can be casual or definitely dress up your look), cocktail ring (if you're going to do it - it's got to be big and I love the grren Amethyst), a cuff and my tee. I'm a huge fan of Sailor Jerry. I love the inspiration behind the line and when this Philly based - family owned company was in Vegas during the shows for Magic, they threw an awesome party! With 10 years under their belt, they headed to the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino and had amazing performers! I have to say that they were one of my two favorite parties that week (the other one being the Hudson Jeans party). To understand how amazing the brand is, check out their site, try their rum as it's really good and head to the store! From time to time they have live bands that play within their store and the environment has such positive energy! I have yet to go but have plans this fall and hope they keep me in the loop on future events! For now, this tired chica has some trailblazing to do and can't wait until it's the weekend!

Today's spread has a lot going on in but it's serving as my personal check list and as always, you can click the links to see more about the pieces that I have selected. On Sat, I celebrated my 30th birthday and I'm actually in the Parker Ruffle Racer Top (you'll also see it in my reality episode as well which comes out later this fall) which is definitely a great staple year around but I love the idea that as the weather gets cooler, I can throw a blazer on! The cord blazer is a must in my wardrobe I love the texture and I love the details of it as well! I have a black blazer that has been so handy when I needed to round out my look. When it comes to boots, I tend to go for the over knee but every now and then I like a bootie and these are perfect. I have a few pairs of Colin Stuarts within my closet and I definitely want to check these off my list! I just got a new bag for the season and it is in fact the Prudence from Cole Haan! I love that it has a slender look but still holds my Jimmy Choo wallet, Flip, Blackberry, etc and the leather details - AMAZING! Finally, we have the Hudson Legging Jean, I don't have these yet but when I hung out with Casey, Hudson Jeans New Media & PR Coordinator at Hudson, (you can see a pic of her and I on the press page) in Vegas at the ENK Show, she was wearing them and looked stunning - so I need to get them! Of course I'm wearing a fab pair of Hudsons now that I have not been able to stop wearing for awhile now! Together this look can be worn to be very chic whether I'm at the runways, in the showrooms or just running around. Apart, they become great staples that will help in building your fall wardrobe! What are your key pieces for fall and how are you going to make it all come together?

Since I got back from Vegas (last Sat) I started seeing fall everywhere. The temperatures are significantly cooler, last night I hung out with a friend that talked about movie nights and apple cider and this morning clinched it - I smelled fall! This time last year, I remember covering Fashion Week and still wearing my "best of summer" looks but it seems that this will not be what I'm wearing this season to the shows or Fashion Night Out. Where did the summer go and why am I not sad that it's passed? I'm no fan of winter but the fall with boots and layers that can be done in a sexy way are a huge plus for me! Boyfriend cardigans aren't only comfy but they can defintiely be done in a femme way so I decided to post one of my first "ode to fall" articles. Leggings are a sure way to make sure that you don't look frumpy when you start layering and are a great alternative to wearing skinny jeans (although I will totally rock my Hudson Jeans). This is my favorite look - a femme top, a large ring, layered necklaces and awesome boots! The Marc Jacobs boots have a fun heel if you look carefully and I love that when I'm not feeling like a tall heel, I can still wear this and look completely put together. What's your fall signature look?

Before I even got here, I had a few people on my list that I wanted to see and one of them was Hudson Jeans which is showing at ENK Shows at the Wynn. Now the first thing is that I didn't know a lot about them until a friend of mine (who worked with them at one time) introduced me to some people at a party they threw in Vegas in Feb 2008. Everytime I complained about not getting the perfect jean and the fact that I had a small waist but a bigger bootie that made it difficult, he kept saying you have to get Hudsons. Then, I got my first pair last spring and wore them so much that it was a tearful departure when we had to part ways. Lets speed it up to the present when I needed the perfect jean to wear for my reality show taping, only one jean represented cool, chic and casual and I was so pleased to receive an awesome pair that worked well with heels. So I knew when I came to Vegas, I had to check out the booth and Casey, their Social Media PR person (let me say that they get the world of social and that I can't wait to continue to expand my denim knowledge and working them into the spreads that you guys love so much) walked me through the line and we even hit the ENK Show floor to look at fab pairings! She happened to have on the the Legging Jean. Now I know there has been much debate about this pair of jeans but let me say that after seeing them in person I thought it was denim but the fact that you have the great denim look, their signature 2 buttons, the classic flap that gives all booties that perfect look and the perfect fit, this is something that we should all have in our closets. Expect to hear a lot more from Hudson as they have definitely stepped up their presence with the addition of making Georgia Jagger the face of the brand. Casey and I hit the floor and saw a great shirt company that many of the celebs have been seen in - LnA Clothing. I love that these are simple tees that really provide a dynamic look. The Side Tail Tee is something that I am loving. It comes in a tank or a tee and what better shirt to pair with your jeans? Of course when it comes to an awesome shoe, I have to say that Jimmy Choo is my go to pair. Now they were not at the show but if you were wearing this to go out for a night with the girls or a very cool event, the Kurt would be your shoe. I love that it's suede and embossed leather and lets the rocker chick in you come out. As always the links above can be clicked on so that you can grab fab pieces to create your look! Just another day at the shows in Vegas!

Oh boy it's getting a bit hectic in a little over a week I will be heading West baby to Vegas with the rest of the Kitten Lounge team to check out all the fashion trade shows, nightlife, restuarants, spas etc and to cover it on Kitten Lounge! The team is excited and I love meeting new people and those that I never see accept via my social networks. The next few days are going to be hectic (taping my episode for a reality show, going to Vegas, turning 30 at the Loews in SoBe and of course Fashion Week - did I mention my new jewelry line is being worked on as well - woo take a breath) and I'm a big planner of outfits. I even get focused on my travel outfit as I want to be comfortable but in many cases, I hit my city of destination without stopping to change! So my new graphic love is Paul Frank (Karmaloop has a fab collection if you don't have a store in your area)! I love the comical characters you have to check out his site to learn their names but they're comfy, sexy (and if you buy the guy version that would be hot) and so appropriate to travel in! His pieces also have a surprise - love the detail of the back from the cinched area on top to the kisses at the bottom and for those that don't know, the monkey's name is Julius! The giraffe, Clancy is the cutest thing ever and how could you not have that to carry your mags and anything else for a flight from NYC to Vegas? I'm a new fan (about a year or so) of Hudson Jeans (get them at ShopBop as they have quite a collection) - they always fit right and you know I'm a Havaianas girl! I have these flipflops in black as I'm a little Brazilian so I love seeing the flag (I'm wearing them as I type them now) but I would love the green version to pair with this top. Of course, I'm al labout Ted Rossi and I have this python cuff it makes any casual outfit dressy! I can guarantee you that this is pretty much how you will see me as I love comfort and a bit of pop! Now I'm off to complete my look and stay tuned for more updates - the links above are clickable!
