I used the skirt as a neutral color and decided I didn't want to take away from the skirt, but I didn't want it to be too dressy. The navy blue and orange are unexpected pops of color that reflect a setting sun. The length of the skirt goes good with an ankle cuff so I decided to pair the two.

When I saw those shades..I immediately envisioned a sophisticated tropical city. What better place than St. Tropez?! The Gucci shades scream urban sophistication, with a tropical twist. The wood bangles are there to just pile on..yes I have two sets! I of course interpreted the beach sun,sand and water.

More on my DARE TO BE FABULOUS series. I rarely take big fashion risks. But I love mixing patterns. This is my favorite combo...florals and stripes. Total cool and totally in! I DARE YOU to mix floral and stripes..

Just a fun easy look for your casual friday. You can just swipe on some red lipstick to make it in time for happy hour...no need to go home and change!

Like I said I have a MAJOR obsession with ALL things PEPLUM! This Givenchy dress is a prime example of why. It is SOOO versatile I could have mixed this with any number of accessories. The look I wanted to capture today was a Corner Office CEO look. This look is for nothing less than a BOSS! 

I saw this beautiful bouquet and I was inspired to make a look that I felt represented it.. I love how I managed to mix all those different golds...and put only one green element in the look; but it tied everything together. I was going for a sophisticated understated look. This is for a non-fussy bride! 

I love White..its suck a fresh neutral! It creates an air of elegance and sophistication. I think Aqua and Pink together are beautiful. They go together so nice! 

I believe this is such a classic color combination! I love it!! It is such a fresh spin on a Red dress. The Brian Atwood shoes are such a cool combination...so they inspired me to keep the theme going into the accessories!   

I love this room...I got inspiration from the room so .I chose the dress to represent the leaves and the white of the room. The coral matches the throw pillow. I wanted to add some black and white to match the throw pillow on the couch. 

To me being daring is about choosing bold accessories. I love RED as a secondary color. It adds sophistication and it draws the eyes in. I didn't want to distract from the beautiful Phillip Lim jacket so I downplayed the outfit, but each piece is DARING in its own right!
