Take a Bow

The edgier trends are a thing of the past this Spring and femininity is the way to go. Whether your a little girl playing with dolls in her bedroom or a successful business women, one little detail never overstays it’s welcome, BOWS! They are on everything right now, big, small, bright, or toned down there is a perfect bow for every girly girl out there.


Start simple with accessories. Even if your personal style isn’t over-the-top feminine, a small version of this trend is just the right amount!

Try a piece form Marc by Marc Jacobs with pretty little bows in silver or gold.



Headbands like these are for the trendsetter and one who likes to play and take risks with fashion. My absolute FAVORITE place to get any type of headpiece is Jaxie. Check out how fabulous the pieces are at www.ShopJaxie.com


I love all of the new shoes for Spring with the bows on the toe of the shoe, adorable.


Or grab a pair of leather gloves for a little bit more edge

Dress up for any occasion be it going out or something a little more formal with a dress or mini skirt . For a dress with a large bow it makes the jewelry to go with the outfit a simple task, add a stunning cocktail ring and your set!





One of my must-haves is the various colored Juicy Couture bow bags. They are casual and dressy all wrapped up in a bow.

Completely obsessing over this new Mara Hoffman top with peek-a-boo bow detail on the back.

Choose from a wide variety of different styles to work this into your ever growing wardrobe.

A Whole Lotta Halston

I have recently become obsessed with the newest collection for Halston Heritage (which is directed by SJP) so ofcourse it is nothing less then amazing and a little bit of Carrie Bradshaw. This blog is dedicated to my favorite pieces from this design house and hopefully you will get just as excited as I am about each and every piece! Ah, fashion porn...


Halston Heritage Jumpsuit, perfect for the Spring!

The “Brandi” handbag & this “Carla” studded bag are must-haves


Open shoulder gown for a fancier event such as a gala or cocktail affair

Boho-chic jacquard mini dress
Mini tunic dress with a little 70’s throwback and an 80’s style pattern

Simple, yet perfect deep v-neck dolman sleeve dress worn on the cover of Elle Magazine


One of my absolute favorites is this electric blue pleated dress, to die for!
Comfy, dressy or casual peach caftan dress. Timeless and fabulous

Similar to the blue short pleated dress, this orange color is stunning and the length adds elegance

This Halston flap handbag is the perfect standby when in doubt about what kind of small bag you want to take out any night of the week

A LBD is always instyle and this loose fitting one shoulder version would make any women feel sexy!
