Pattern Play

 

Prints are chic, chic, chic!!

Here's my ode to pattern with this fun Instashoot. I pulled a Juliana Jabour Miro-inspired print dress and Trina Turk necklace from my closet especially for a trip to San Francisco. Since I nearly always wear black, I thought I should record the occasion! I was inspired to break out this print number to cover events at the Academy of Art University for Apparel News. It was the perfect daytime city chic look for a morning panel discussion and for lunching at Neiman Marcus. How will you wear will prints this Spring? 

 

Denim Fetish

                                                                 

I must confess, I have a denim fetish.

And for Spring, denim couldn't be more chic. I was reminded of how amazing clean blue denim is this season when I stopped by Louis Verdad's studio to pull samples for a recent shoot. Case in point, the chic purse, clutch and stiletto heels pictured above. Designers from Miu Miu to Balmain churned out denim collections that are seriously to die for this season. I'm in love with Miu Miu's ladylike vintage chic looks, Balmain's '80s power suits and Verdad's chic accessories and tailored numbers. Here are a few of my favorite looks from the runway.

This might be the best trickle up trend I've seen! The bracelet, decorated with all-over mini metal skulls, is ultra, ultra chic. And.....it's now on my wish list. #friendsforever

Look of the Day: Christian Louboutin Black & White Ankle Boots

Boot love. 

I'm diiiiieing over these Christian Louboutin color block ankle boots from Net-a-porter. Black & white is a hotter than hot trend for Spring and these beauties are the perfect wardrobe update to get ahead of the fashion curve. You won't be traipsing through the snow in these lovelies, but here in Cali, they are perfect for a sunny winter day. Uber glam and very, very chic. Love.
