The two things I was obsessed with this week were this white strong shoulder jacket and these super stylish suede platform pumps in blush! Every season or when I see new trends, I get this "must have" feeling about certain items and I recently got that about these two items lol. Hopefully you'll think they're as cute as I do! So now how do you wear these items? The strong shoulder jacket is a bit of a throw back to the 80's but with a futuristic twist so you can wear this like you would wear any blazer- with skinny jeans and heels, with a skirt but only with a sleek style don't try to mix it with a flouncy skirt. It can be worn over a dress too but again with maybe a sheath. Don't overdo the look however, for example I tried this on with a tight fitting skirt that was high waisted and bright blue, super cute but together looked too 80's. The pumps can be worn like you wear any heel, I think the blush shade gives it a sophisticated look that balances out the stripper feel: ) Happy Shopping!

Jeggings and Skinny jeans for summer!

The legging/jean is so cute and after getting a new shipment of J Brand and Citizens who both make a really cute jegging I've decided to blog about it: ) Do not fear these minature looking jeans, they are really cute on and they stretch! As you can see by the pictures I have posted they can be worn many ways from flats to heels. I like pairing them with a fuller, more blousy top and great heels! You can really dress up these jeggings like Kim Kardashian pictured top left. Try them out today!

Oscars! Fashion Hits and Misses

It's Oscar time-all the gorgeous, relevant, and not to mention talented stars descend onto the red carpet and we will be judging...the fashion!

Hit:

Sandra Bullock-Gold hot! This molten dress was a perfect fit for the event! She also happens to be my top pick for makeup-she looked drop dead gorgeous in a red lip and subtle sparkly eyes that paired perfectly with her shiny, almost raven hair.

J-Lo-I know, I know I still like it! Jennifer Lopez looked top notch tonight. Many a star have tried dresses with a futuristic twist and I think J-Lo got it spot on! A little feminine with a twist of interesting fashion forward detailing.

Penelope Cruz-Love, love this burgundy hued dress! Granted she has that amazing olive skin tone but this dress was cut beautifully and was my top pick for the night. I think to be best dressed you have to wear something fitting for the event, cut to fit you, and old Hollywood glamour with a nod to high fashion-She was all of those tonight!

Kristen Stewart-I really thought the dress was very "Oscars" but maybe too old for Kristen.

Miley Cyrus-I really liked this dress, again maybe not for Miley but I thought it was very, very pretty. Loving the nude tones (on people whose skin tone is a shade darker than their dress.)

Miss:

Charlize Theron-What? Two roses on over the breast area...need I say more?

Mariah Carey- " I just bought this off the rack at Dillards"-This is the Oscars-put down the champagne and step it up!

Zoe Saldana-Umm no-She is sooo beautiful, I would have loved to see her get it right tonight but sadly this dust feather rendition with ombre is not cutting it.

Sarah Jessica Parker-Our fashion diva! I'm so sad I didn't love it tonight; she's always usually so fresh and updated that we all follow trend! Tonight I did not love the dress, the color wasn't right when I see that color I think "cheap" don't get me wrong I know it's Chanel but it was a miss! Also, her hair was kind of a mess yes? I did happen to notice a new trend: flyaways hmm...

I feel like a lot of people played it very safe tonight with dresses that I felt like we've seen before. Kudos to the ladies who got it right!
