Weekend, you are almost here.
Weekend, I can feel you near.
My plans are all made,
In the sun I will lay
Oh Weekend, bring me good cheer.
It’s that time of the week where we stare wistfully out the window as the sun streams in. The weekend is so close, and even more importantly we have the perfect outfit planned for it.
For the every day woman, truly special, get-my-hair-and-make-up-done, rent from Rent-the-Runway, events don’t happen too often. Probably hasn’t happened since graduation from University or even Prom. When they do, we panic. We want to be Audrey, but over think it to the point where we fear ending up more Lady Gaga. As with most things in life: Simpler is better. Keep it classic. Have a stand out piece of jewelry—as a wingman, so to speak—but let the dress do all the talking.
And as always, you rock. xox.There’s nothing like a night on the town with the girls. It’s almost as good as retail therapy and just as necessary. Regardless of whether or not a manhunt is involved, we still want to look our best. We’ve put together our favorite look for a night out that’s the perfect go-to when we just don’t want to think anymore.
And as always, you rock.

The Statement Necklace. There’s always one that we fall in love with, but for no good reason we don’t make the plunge and get it. Why? Because we tell ourselves, “oh, I could never pull that off”. I’m telling you right now: that’s a complete lie. They are the easiest thing to do, and I will tell you why.
1) You don’t have to worry about other pieces of jewelry. Simple studs, the rings you wear every single day, that’s all you need. The necklace will carry enough style for the whole team.
2) It allows you to style down without compromising style. A statement necklace, especially a colorful one, is best worn when nothing else is trying to steal the spotlight. A black tank, cream shawl sweater, and your favorite skinny jeans are the perfect backdrop for a show stealing neck piece.
3) The bolder the better. Challenge yourself. As long as you respect the statement necklace, you really can’t go wrong.
For those of us who can’t wait for the summer, we’re always dreaming of the our days spent on a luxurious boat (yeah, we already admitted it was a dream). Needless to say, we are always prepared with the perfect outfit should one of those days actually happen. Stripes? Check! Statement Necklace? Check! Flawless.
And as always, you rock.
It’s more than just reliving the 60’s. It’s more than just Haight Ashbury. And it’s definitely more than daisy chains. The Bohemian look is often avoided because people feel as though they’re faking it—as if they have to submit to the lifestyle associated with it in order to do it properly. I say “hogswash” to that. Sure, it’s a mentality. But it’s not exclusive. And don’t think for a second you’re sacrificing style to accomplish this look.
There are many different approaches to pulling it off, but for those of you trying it out without straying from your comfort zone, here’s it broken down into three easy steps:
1) Clothing—While a shopping spree at Free People will absolutely expedite your adventure into the realm of Boho Chic, it’s not necessary. Most people have summer dresses or skirts that could absolutely fit the bill—just keep it flowy (I’m ok with making that word up) and comfy.
2) Hair—Let it be. Relaxed and natural is beautiful for our faces, why shouldn’t our hair have the same glory? If you NEED to do something with your hair, try a lazy braid, just keep it loose.
3) (Most importantly) Jewelry—Long necklaces, turquoise stones—or just natural stones in general—and burnished metal. One thing I love about Boho Jewelry: big earrings are absolutely encouraged.
And as always, you rock.xox
We love stripes. By love, we mean we are obsessed. The greatest thing about stripes: they never go out of style. Why? Because they can be constantly reworked and restyled. The second greatest thing: they are so much fun to accessorize with. Not sure what to wear that bold statement necklace with? Get a stripe maxi dress and rock it like there’s no tomorrow.
And as always, you rock. xoxLeather Jackets. James Dean. Spikes. Danny Zuko. We all have a little desire to be edgy—it’s sexy, always has been and always will be. Some are too scared to try in fear of going overboard all the way to goth. If that’s your thing, we support it. But for those of you just venturing into the rocker world, we thought we would give you some ideas on how to integrate it into your wardrobe.
And as always, you rock. xox

What fine line? The line between looking good and looking better than the bride. While none of us want to show up the lady of the moment, sometimes our impeccable taste gets the better of us. Even though the wedding season will soon be upon us, we’ve got your style covered. The wedding gift? That’s all on you.
There’s something special about taking a midday break to congregate with friends over good food. Whether or not we want to admit it, it’s absolutely a fashion show. Sex and the City is how we imagine we look—even if we look no where as chic as SJP. Even so, it’s a little moment we take to not only eat what we want, but show off our latest purchases to our friends.
