BCBG Summer Hat

Memorial Day is right around the corner and everyone needs a hot summer hat to sport at the BBQ’s! I found this amazing BCBG hat with “sunglasses” on the rim and absolutely love it! You can actually see out of the frames of the sunglasses and the hat comes down far on face so that the sunglasses are at your eye line! Super kitschy and so unique for a pool party!

Coachella is coming up and everyone in LA is gearing up for a crazy weekend in the dessert. Of course, this crazy weekend is not only about the music but also about the fashion and most definitely not about camping in the dessert! Pa-lease! You need to be oh so boho chic for this glorious music fest and I have found just the bag for your travels! Your gonna need a lot of water and other things to conceal in the bag soo this large leather strapped H and M bag to the max is perfect! I love the colorful tassels against the black and white pattern. Perfect for the Coachella fashion scene! And the best part? It is oh soooo on your budget at $24.95! You will probably have to throw your bag away at the end of the trip so go for something fun, funky and cheap!

I am obsessed with bows and pink so this little number really hits the spot! What a fun accessory for spring and summer! This Ted Baker bow belt also comes in a FABtastic yellow to brighten up any outfit! Now, this belt is a bit of a splurge worthy item but it can be worn with so many things and really will make any outfit stand out! A good hostess needs a pink bow belt right? I found this belt at Asos.com for 64.84 which is much less than what you will pay at a department store!  Uhhh sooooo in love!

Que the Anthropologie Jardim Lace Dress! The minute I saw this pink floral lace number I knew it was perfect and I was head over heels! This dress is a SPLURGE worthy item coming in at $298.00 but so worth it if you will be going to a lot of garden parties this spring or weddings!

Fall Trends with Laurie Graham

It finally feels like fall here in LA and I am so ready for some classic cold weather attire. However, my good friend Laurie Graham, of Laurie Graham Style, won’t let me wear just any old sweater and jeans. Nope, I gotta be up on all the new fall fashion trends and now so can you! 

Tip # 1

A young and fun holiday look can be achieved by pairing red velvet jeans with a classy zebra print!

Tip # 2

A bronze leather jacket is a perfect fall item to wear with any outfit. The color looks great with oranges, browns and reds, which are so abundant in this season!

Tip #3

Laurie loves these metallic gold jeans! They are super cute and unique with a three dimensional look. These are great for fall and the holidays! Pair with a cream or white fur vest, jacket or sweater for a stunning winter ensemble! Pick these jeans up at 7 for All Mankind !
