STRIPES + SPOTS


Voila. My leopard + plaid + minor floral concoction. 

Being that I live in the desert-land of Scottsdale, I decided to take this feline look into the wild (otherwise known as my backyard).

We got leopard, plaid, florals, leather, jewels – there's definitely a lot going on. BUT it's all about balancing the color tones when mixing a variety of elements together. I kept the overall tone of my shorts, shoes and accessories pretty neutral so that the prints could make its statement.

If you aren't feeling this print on print action, then you can easily swap out my plaid for a solid color, or just completely eliminate the leopard coat. But a good way to approach this bold trend is to accent your accessories and shoes with these prints first, then move onto the clothing.

Check back tomorrow for some different leopard + plaid options.

Get the Look: Suit Up


Suits are too damn chic, and I order all of you to wear one...especially this Valentine's Day. 

You don't have to buy a full suit set; you can definitely mix and match like I did above. I paired my Juicy Couture tuxedo jacket with a pair of H&M silky lace shorts, a baby pink button up from Zara, super chunky Jeffrey Campbell platforms, and my Moschino heart belt. I originally had my hair down, but I felt like it was too expected. So I opted for a cheerleader pony to give it a more flirty look.
