trend alert: petite rings

Trend: Elegant Stacking Rings 

Lately, I’ve been rocking the same thin, delicate rings on a daily basis.I absolutely love the tiny rings because they’re so light you don’t even realize you’re wearing them. I love to wear them on their own for a subtle, chic appearance or stack them for a bolder one.

One of my favorite delicate rings from Cat Bird

I love these small delicate rings. They are perfect for someone with tiny fingers like myself.

(I literally cannot find a size five ring anywhere)

You can find these rings from a variety of stores like Anthropolgie, Free People, and Brandy Melville  For more unique rings try searching around your local boutiques and thrift stores.

Bonjour Bastille Day!

Happy Bastille Day!

 Bastille Day is kind of like the French version of America's Fourth of July if that helps. I happen to use Bastille Day as an excuse to fill my stomach with as many french pastries as possible(not like I already do that on a daily basis...)

I have always admired the French's perfectly chic fashion, art, and culture but I happen to love the history behind the monarchy scandals as well. My favorite was the strange and scandalous life of their former queen. 

...

 Sophia Coppola(her most recent film was the Bling Ring)gives us a sneak peek into Marie Antoinette's life in her movie.

I loved Coppola's film but I absolutely adored the costumes in the movie!

The detail involved in clothing from that era is magnificent.

Oh the french pastries! 

Heureux Jour de la Bastille!

A Cafe in Paris in the Summertime.

My love for mini fashion films continues....

Dior's commercial for their ADDICT fragrance, featuring Daphne Groeneveld, really makes me want to dye my super brunette hair platinum blond and dance around Paris. 

What I love is her effortless French style throughout the film. My favorite was her eye catching red leather skirt. Here is a way you can recreate her look.

1. A red leather skirt  2. A cropped fitted tee 3. A white quirky bowler hat (or in black) 4. Some black stilettos. 

I love the effortless style of the french. Its is très magnifique!

Why Chanel is the best.

CHANEL Haute Couture autumn/winter 2013

One day, i hope to create as beautiful presentations as Karl. His fashion shows can make you feel like you are sitting in a museum looking a great pieces of art. It would be my absolute dream to attend one of his shows. They are flawless. 

His presentation for Paris Haute Couture autumn/winter 2013 was outstanding. It was in a kind of futuristic/apocalyptic theater with a stunning glass celling. 

and the clothing was magnificent! 

My favorite was this white gown that was his final piece. 

I definitly encourage you to watch the show. It's absolutely amazing.

America's Birthday

Happy Birthday America,

Here's a cupcake. 

I love that the stars and strips can be so fashionable and versatile. You can rock them all year round, but on the fourth of July they are especially relevant. 

Denim and the stars and stripes go perfect together. 

 Go for a more classic look with a skirt and blouse or a cute button up shirt thrown over jeans and a tank. 

 Cool Jackets 

add some edge to your red white and blue outfit

My favorites way to wear the patriotic colors:

First add a touch of white with a boho flower crown. This one is from Free People.

A bold red dress, also from Free People and some star converse complete the patriotic look.

Also, don't forget your nails!
