What I love most about DVF are her signature prints. You may recall this dress from this post in Paris. Not only can this dress go from day to night, I can wear it as a dress or tunic AND it travels beautifully. This fabric was made for being rolled up and thrown in a suitcase.

Yes, this is me. I went through a red head phase a couple of years ago and was clearly feeling myself in this DVF “spotted frog” print dress.

DVF can really do it all. The clean lines of this blazer and slight sheen of the fabric make this a perfect basic in my wardrobe. This piece was also featured in this post.

DVF loves Gap was too cute for words. I found myself (unsuccessfully) trying to stuff myself into girls XXL dresses. This collection was made the little ones but still showcased DVF’s classic prints and style.

I am still kicking myself for missing this collaboration last summer. What could be better than mixing DVF’s wild prints with current/elliot?

Mink Me

IMG_1753What do you do when your favorite co-worker (next to you Steven) brings you a vintage mink coat passed down to her from her mother?
Wear it everyday!

IMG_1757

I’ve been rocking this AMAZING mink coat pretty much everyday since it was given to me. I’ve worn it to brunch with jeans, to walk Benji with lululemon and out to dinner with the girls with a dress!
The attention to detail are just unreal. I am so lucky to have Athena as a fabulous co-worker, friend and mink coat giver!

IMG_1758What’s your opinion on fur?

I say if it is passed down or thrifted it is acceptable. I don’t see myself ever walking into Neiman Marcus and purchasing a new fur, but I will take a real fabulous vintage fur any day.

A Match Made in Heaven

IMG_1732There is nothing I love more than a designer collaboration and this Jason Wu dress is a gem from his last collection for Target. I paired the dress with my go to classic DVF blazer and it looks to me like they are a match made in heaven!

The Trompe L’oeil Tattoo Top

IMG_1712

In case you were wondering, this is how I do my laundry.

IMG_1725This amazing top is one of my favorite purchase from the Maison Martin Margiela’s capsule collection for H&M. I was very fortunate to stumble upon nearly the entire collection at my local H&M last week and didn’t have to wait in line in the rain with everyone else on Powell. Did you shop the collection?
