Ain't No Slouch

I am obsessed with these beautifully slouchy looks seen on the Celine and (gasp) Tommy Hilfiger runways, especially the pants. Apparently Kanye West is a fan as well.

I can't wait to road test this look- I can totally see rocking some slouchy silk print pants with a fierce heel and leather tee for a night on the town.....hmmm I smell a personal style post coming on.

Sneak Peek: Studded Converse

I have an intense shoe habit. I always have and always will. While I love the added height of a high heel and the comfort of my ballet flats there is something about dope sneakers (or tennis or trainers- whatever you like to call them) that I can't resist. The more unique (read: weird) the better. I guess I am what you would call a true sneaker head.

Over the years I have put together a collection that I am pretty proud of and that's why I decided to do a regular post called Sneak Peek where I share pieces from my collection and a little more about what defines my personal style.

First up- my Green Studded Converse. I am generally not a converse type of girl, but when I stumbled upon these on the Free People website a couple years ago I knew I had to have them. Converse have an innate ease and the studs add the requisite edge the really compliments my style.

NEW NARS

Something came over me yesterday and I dropped a minor fortune at Sephora.

I am super excited about my new NARS eyeshadow in Rated R and velvet matte lip pencil in Dragon Girl... now I should really learn how to do my own makeup- lol.

Retail Math Lesson #2: Going for Gucci

I am kind of feeling a '70s disco vibe this week. The seed was planted earlier in the week when I created a Disco inspired bridal look taking cues from Bianca Jagger and the Spring '11 runways, where white and '70 styles had a major moment.

 From there the next natural step was to tackle recreating a look from Gucci's Spring 2011 runway where '70s era sexy was on full display. As always, I had a blast looking for pieces to pull the look together.

Check out how it all adds up below:

Pierre Hardy X Gap Spring 2011

Pierre Hardy x Gap Spring 11 shoes now available online. Get yours quick before they are all gone!

I really love that Pierry Hardy continues to collaborate with Gap and always turn out shoes that look like they could be part of the main collection sold at Barneys. 

Non-Traditional Bride: Disco Diva

Lately I have had a lot of fun styling looks on Shopstyle.com. This week I was inspired by the fast approaching wedding season and the challenge of creating a unique look for a non-traditional bride.

This look, inspired by the glamorous Bianca Jagger, also takes cues from the spring 2011 runways where '70 style and white were two key trends.

In true 70's style this bride is rocking a Paul and Joe Silk Crepe Jumpsuit, Prada Platforms, and an amazing "Birdcage Feather Flower" headband with veil by Tasha.

The '70's vibe keeps going with with a cuff by Alexis Bittar and silver Giuseppe Zanotti clutch with super fun chain tassel. Red lips and nails courtesy of Nars complete the look.

Last, but not least the ring- Paloma Picasso's Love and Kisses ring is the perfect non-traditional pick for a non-traditional bride.

She is ready for her spotlight!
