Um I didn’t get the memo that we were going to have reasonable weather! The funny part is my winter coat has made an appearance already and we’re supposed to be in the fall. The good thing about this weather is that you can layer up and look appropriate when the weather is changing every second. When it comes to one of my favorite looks, I love the low neckline fitted sweater, paired with skinny jeans or a nice flair (you'll also want to make sure that you have various cuts and washes as this is a fun way to change up your look), ankle boots and of course – lots of accessories. As much as I love the over the knee boot, there is something to be said for wearing the little booties as well! This is such a great look when you’re at the office, going to Starbucks or doing whatever you need to do as you begin to tackle your Mon! Take some time to look at the pieces above and to begin to add them into your closet (note the cute lace tank that’s under this sweater) – such a sweet look and very chic!
This Fri, I will find myself back at S Factor, the pole dancing studio that is more than just a pole dance activity. It actually includes some yoga and also some dance as well. I have done it one other time and thought it was amazing. This time I am coming back to enjoy the experience with other Editors to get a feel for it so next week you'll see a fun post! I'm super excited because they are adding stilettos into this. I'm a little nervous but up for the challenge. The last time I did this course (without stilettos), I wore cute hip hugging yoga pants and a tank. I wasn't sure what to expect but it gets super hot when you have two hours of this work! So I have created one of my famous spreads which includes boy shorts (love Hanky Panky as a former underwear model, I am still obsessed with this brand), long leg warmers, a cute tank and some jewelry that won't get in the way but will make the look come together! It's easy to bring elements of Flashdance within this look! I'll let you know what I actually end up wearing but this is the perfect look and I'm sure with heels it will be amazing!
When I'm not running around the city, I love my weekends when I'm hanging out at our beach house in Long Beach! That means wearing lounging clothes throughout the day (you know that I love Victoria's Secret and their Pink collection and this long tank is perfect), getting some reading done (Julie & Julia looks like such a great movie that I want to read the book first) and to enjoy some amazing beverages. These glasses are from CB2 and are in a set of 6 with these super cute vintage labels! Although it's definitely hot out there, in Long Beach there is always a bit of wind (and I'm always on the balcony) so having a hoodie is an essential for the residents of our beach village - one again, it has to be Pink. So with the weekend around the corner, I think that we all need to find a way to enjoy our days off in the most relaxing way possible!
Today the sun peeks out but the clouds definitely look ominous so you have to dress for rain. What a great way to wear something very simple that's perfect for your rain boots (who wouldn't love these by Burberry) and yet allows you to put on these cute Havianas that allow you to look like you took some time to pick out your flip flops. I love this tank top as you don't even have to wear jewelry and since it's warm, you won't have to fuss with wearing a jacket! In this look, it's all about the accessories from the braided bracelet, large ring and the gorgeous chain bag by none other that Michael Kors! Take some time to think about the fashionable way to dress for rainy conditions that won't leave you wondering what you'll look like for your late lunch or drinks after work!
A few months ago, I was introduced to Spreegirl at an Editor's event and I have to say that since that time, I have been hooked on this super cute sleepwear brand. It has gone with me on a lot of trips with friends, meeting other designers and so much more. Spreegirl's philosophy is that you should be fashionable at all times and that it can be carried into bed time. I actually have a super cute gingham set that's a tank top and boy shorts much like the one the model is wearing in the picture. I love that it's super girly while having a bit of a spice in there too. In the end, it's a fun LA line that you should start introducing to your closets!
Fortunately, if you view the site, you can also get a sneak peek into what is available for this fall which is just as great as their spring and summer line as well. Take some time to check out the collection and if you're looking to purchase them, then you should check out such sites as Yandy.com and Revolver Clothing.
Last Fri the runways were full of bathing suits and fabulous swimwear! One of my favorite designers, Syla by Sylvie Cachay, hit the catwalk with a super cute Boho Chic look! My favorite look from this show is definitely this piece! I love the simple cream color but the accessories are absolutely amazing and definitely something that I would wear! It's hard to say which accessory is my favorite but clearly my eye was drawn to the belt which looks like it could be agate but I'm not sure. This piece would look cute with a slim fitting jersey or over a tank and a pair of jeans. I love this natural style and think that sometimes it's nice to go beyond wearing prints and to go with something simple and chic which looks amazing no matter where you opt to wear this. This piece and many more can be see on the Mercedes-Benz Swim Miami Fashion Week site as there were a lot of great looks for this show.
So I was minding my own business and someone actually approached me about their site Fab Crush - which gives you information on the best in not only accessories but amazing looks that can be found on some of your favorite accessories! As you know, here at the Kitten Lounge and my sister site - See Pretty Things, we are all about attainable fashion! Fab Crush may be a new site that is still gaining momentum (and fast too) but they definitely know about flashing some goodies which makes you want to continue to check in! Visit Fab Crush and make sure to read about their amazing giveaway courtesy of Gorjana Jewelry. But in order to get it, you'll need to make sure that you visit Fab Crush!
