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.

Happy 4th of July!! This is a look for a to enjoy the holiday!! Vintage with a modern twist..Happy Holiday!

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!

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! 

I didn't get a chance to go into depth about Peplums. I would just like to express. THEY ARE SO VERSATILE!! I am going to prove it here. To me THRIFT is a virtue! So this is just a sampling of how we can SAVE but still be fab. The look I'm creating is a White Peplum with a Black Sandal and a pop of color at the bag level. (As always I use a clutch a minor obsession lol) CAN YOU GUESS WHICH IS HI and WHICH is Lo? Hope you enjoy!

I totally have a peplum obsession. I LOVE these dresses. I think they are a fresh, fun, and still sexy. Peplums are also EXTREMELY versatile you can wear them with heels, or cute flats. They come in all price ranges and are a great way to transition from day to night looks. As always SMOOCHES! 

I am NOT afraid of color jeans although I am a PLUZ SIZE GIRL! I think they are chic and beautiful for spring/summer.

When I think Edgy I immediately see spikes! I say when you want to ROCK OUT! mix some spiky accessories(pile on the bangles to make more of a statement) with an LBD Because..Black is never boring! 

My current SHOE OBSESSION!!! I LOVE Giuseppe Zanotti SHOES! I can oogle these ALL DAY! Not to cause envy Mr. Louboutin but I have to hand it to the italian... 

This look is my take on a festive party style! DO THIS GIRL!  I sometimes shy away from color..but this outfit makes me change my mind!
