summer soundtrack

I'm off to vermont for memorial day weekend. I'm ready for the relaxing environment and quality time with my parents. I put together this mix for the road trip and decided to share. its a compilation of some of my all time favorite songs along with some new music that I'm obsessed with and have been listening to non stop. 

check it out here. enjoy!

inspiration tuesday: feathers

ever since I saw jason wu's pink feather dress (see below), I have had an obsession with feathers. I'm currently playing around with feathers in my studio so get excited for what's to come. here are some images that have been inspiring me:

style icon: blair eadie

I am a huge fan of blair eadie's blog Atlantic-Pacific. she has a wonderful feminine chic aesthetic with an edgy twist. she does a great job of taking accessible fashion and making it look uber chic. also, I am obsessed with how she styles her hair.

here are some of my favorite looks she has put together:

prom pairings

prom season is here! 

here are some of my picks for the perfect necklace and nail polish colors to go with prom dresses:

marilyn necklace in gold with essie nail polish in really red

samantha necklace with bright blue ribbon and julep nail polish in anne

natalie necklace in gunmetal with neon pink ribbon and essie nail polish in saturday disco fever

shira necklace in silver with neon lime ribbon with scotch nail polish in so little time

inspiration tuesday: chic office

exciting news: I have my first office space in nyc! no surprise, I've been spending a lot of time thinking about desk decorations. I'll have to keep it simple, but there will clearly be lots of color and sparkle!

here are some images that are inspiring me:

color inspiration: pink and green

a true connecticut girl, I love a good pink and green combination for the spring and summer months. I made sure I incorporated this color combination in one of my pieces this spring, and my natalie necklaces have been flying! here is a look at my color inspiration behind the natalie necklace

style icon: emma stone

I have always thought emma stone had a great fashion sense. then when I saw the amazing lanvin dress she wore to last year's Met Ball she went from my "I like your style, well done" category to my "style icon" category. also I have seen her in person when she is not "on" and she looks equally adorable {I saw her at an edward sharpe and the magnetic zeros concert last year, she was very concert chic...I might have stalked her for like 3 minutes to get a complete look at her outfit...}.

here are some of my favorite looks she's had over the past few years:

so amazing. 

by far one of my fave Met Ball looks ever

way to rock neon pink, emma. way to rock it

a fabulous twist on a classic peplum

metallic!

love a good pink and red combination

her makeup here is fabulous. cat's eyes are amaze

pattern mixing with a train, bravo!

casual, yet so chic

looking fierce and classy in leather

I love a pop of emerald with a black dress

everyone stop everything. 

I own this badgley mischka dress.
