Dress:PYLO (Similar Below)|Booties:Jimmy Choo (last seen here)|Choker:Eddie Borgo|Clutch:Lanvin
When the days get hot and humid but you still have to dress try taking a little breather in something like this off the shoulder easy breezy dress… the blue and white stripes are bold yet very striking. Keeping it simple I just added a navy shoe and this fun clutch from Lanvin, which gives the outfit a little twist.

Dress:Juicy Couture (older)| Wedges: Sophia Webster (sold out)
Make a printed dress your staple this summer!! This one is an oldie but a goodie! The bright orange and pink are so fun and the silhouette is so flirty. The combination of the empire waist, sleeveless slip-on design, crossing front panels, keyhole cutout, and side hand pockets=straight summer perfection. Because the pattern on the dress isn’t too bold the stripes on these Sophia Webster wedges complement the fabric, while also adding additional colors.

Crop Top: J.O.A.| Skort: J.O.A.| Bag: Chloe (pre-order here in grey)| Pumps: Christian Louboutin
Tonal tassels are a go today. They add a subtle yet adorable element to this set by J.O.A. (which I may add is soo reasonably priced!) The tank has a cropped silhouette and the high-waisted skort is shaped by a wrap-style, creating the skirt in the front/ shorts in the back look. For looks like this I prefer to stay simple with accessories to keep it sophisticated. I paired my nude pumps and blush Chloe bag to add a hint of color, creating a clean and contemporary outfit.

Scarf:Precious and Primitive| Denim:Rag and Bone| Pumps: Christian Louboutin
Today I am showing off my beautiful new scarf from a recent collaboration with Precious and Primitive. The line created by Stephanie Sachs and Sandee Zahn combines precious fabrics with primitive designs, and uses bold colors and patterns in their ultra soft scarves. The tribal pattern (pictured above) has rich shades of brown and cream, which is perfect for me because I love neutrals so much.
I decided to be very simple today, while pairing the scarf with a white tee, denim, and my nude pumps. There are so many unique ways you can style the scarfs from headpieces, to tops, and even sarongs.

Happy Friday everyone,
It feels so good to finally be out and about after much family illness. This week I was in New York with my sister and friends and we have been having such a good time. Wednesday we went to a white party at Bagatelle and Thursday we were invited to a launch party for StyleLend in Soho that was hosted in a beautiful penthouse owed by Nouriel Roubini. I had a chance to meet some really nice people and from there we had a great time bouncing around the city.
Now I am on to today's post where I am wearing my favorite white Joe's Jeans and this knit multi-color striped top with contrasting cuffs from T by Alexander Wang (on sale now!!). I am loving the striking look of this top and I added a blue belt that came on an older random dress and it just happened to work perfectly.
Adding a neutral pump and a bag from Reed and all set for a casual day. I'm off running errands today. I hope everyone has a great weekend and I will see you Monday!

Summer is a time for fun in the sun, light breezy clothes, sandals, and flip-flops. Today I am wearing a light weight white cotton dress from J.Crew. Changing it up a bit I replaced the simple string belt with this black leather one to pick up the black in my shoes and bag. How ironic is it that these shoes are Nanette Lepore and while shopping around I happened to find this clutch from Milly which is an exact match. I added a couple of fun necklaces and now this simple little white dress reaches another level as it now becomes very chic….
Dress:Alice & Olivia| Sandals:Sophia Webster| Choker:Eddie Borgo
Hello everyone,
Looking forward to a full filled weekend with friends but for today I am posting this great orange dress from Alice & Olivia. Easy and casual, it's a dress you can wear for a daytime event or out to dine in the evening. The side slits allow for a peak at your legs and in a nice heel sandal or wedge it lends for a touch of sex appeal. I have chosen to wear my Sophia Webster heels (which are now on sale) because they add that special something or surprise. This is a light and breezy outfit and I brought a shorter similar version to the Bahamas last month as its great for that tropical look. I am never disappointed with Alice and Olivia, I can always find the best outfits for any occasion. The fit is perfect for me as you can see I wear a lot of it.
Dress:Alice & Olivia| Sandals: Stuart Weitzman
Before going to the Bahamas in May I had originally bought the Stuart Weitzman gladiator sandals with the side zipper and elastic straps in the back… however, I ended up returning them because the straps didn’t fit my leg properly (a constant shoe struggle of mine). On my last visit to the city I found the “Backview Sandal” (photographed above) and they are the perfect addition to my wardrobe. Not only do they fit better with the adjustable straps, they are a chic cross between a boot and the popular gladiator sandal. They give a funky and more rebellious look to any outfit. The cutouts make a simple black dress like this Alice & Olivia one look fierce, and I love the combination of the bold leather with the dainty lace. I layered a few of my favorite Chan Luu necklaces with my crescent shaped Alexis Bittar because in this case…more is more.
Dress:Alice and Olivia (Similar Here)| Sandals: Christian Louboutin (Older, LOVE this pair)
Hi everyone,
Well yesterday was a day and I found so many new things I'm loving…one thing in particular on my wish list is the Dior nano purse. I am going to make it a priority since I absolutely fell in love with it. Today I'm still running around the city and then home again to make a late afternoon barre class.
My post for today is this cute Alice and Olivia yellow dress, so bright and cheerful and so easy to wear just about anywhere. I have paired it with a multi-colored Louboutin sandal and this Trina Turk small clutch. Hope you enjoy this outfit as much as I enjoyed wearing it.
Summer is my favorite time of the year and I'm finding the cutest things to wear…feeling very lucky to have more collabs coming up soon since it's only my first year blogging. I am kind of learning as I go and the plan is to reach 10k before August which is when I want to open myself up a little more to my personality. I am feeling very grateful that people are interested in my styling and what I am about…so heres to the future!!!
Jcrew:Sweater|Shorts|Belt|Bag:Reed Krakoff (Last Seen Here)| Pumps:Christian Louboutin
Hi everyone, hope your day is going well…just arrived in the city and putting up a quick post before running around. These 'Bermuda like' shorts are a perfect length to pair with pumps for me since I am not a real fan of short shorts with high heels. They are casual yet chic with the gold tuxedo stripe and super comfortable. Most of what I am wearing today is from J.Crew and I added my Reed Krakoff bag because it pulls the calf hair belt and all of the neutrals together.
Jumpsuit: Theory| Shoes: Thakoon Addition (also love this pair)
To those who were wondering about how comfy these shoes were I can finally say they are very…I wanted to purchase some everyday flats and wedges to wear with shorts and jumpers and I fell in love with these Thakoon shoes with the python wedge…so cute and today I am wearing them with a gray jumpsuit from Theory for a casual day. The slouchy fit and classic tee material make it perfect. Adding this black belt helps to give this outfit a little pop plus it picks up the black in the shoe. You could also add a tank underneath if you felt a little uncomfortable with the looseness of the top but I just decided to let it drape.

Happy Friday to all,
Well it has been a bit of a rough time with the passing of my grandfather, I will miss him greatly as we shared a very special bond. I’m finally back on the blog and looking forward to a great summer and some travel. Just got back from spending some time in the city with my family to get a few things done then back home to shoot and can’t wait to get posting again!! Today I am wearing this white jumpsuit from Alice and Olivia. The pants and top are connected in the back by a zipper that runs straight up and then the outfit has a cute vest with a loose ruffle along the bottom over it. I can see myself getting a lot of use out of it as it is both a little dressy and casual at the same time. I have chosen to pair with a patterned shoe and then a simple black clutch for a subdued look but you could easily wear a pop of color for a statement outfit or choose to go all white. You can also switch it up a bit by taking the vest off. There are countless ways to style this look. I would love to hear how you would choose to wear it!! Have a great weekend. I’ll see you on Monday!!
XOXO Lauren
Dress:Banana Republic|Sandals:Christian Louboutin (Similar Here)
I hope everyone had an amazing Memorial Day weekend!! Now that summer has kicked off, what better way to start it than with the perfect little white dress?! The LWD is a new wardrobe staple and a must for the summer. The best part is you can dress it down or glam it up just like the little black dress. This lace shift dress from Banana Republic is so breezy and I am such a fan of the neckline on it. One of the best parts about a LWD is that you can do so much with it…add color, an edgier piece, or even mix prints. Today I went with a pop of color in my sandals! The mix of fuchsia, yellow, and turquoise make the outfit playful and summer ready. When I styled this piece on vacation I went with an edgier-chic look with a silver choker and neon pumps. White is so versatile and I love it.
Dress:JCrew(Older, also love this one)|Pumps:Christian Louboutin (sold out)
Spring & summer for me…means great and easy dresses! I love this “punk floral” dress I have had from JCrew for about a year now. It is a tailored and easy straight silhouette with a chic cutaway back. The silk green fabric is so vibrant and the floral print adds a pretty touch for the nice weather. You can really pair a lot of different shoes with this… from pumps to sandals and all different colors. A perfect dress to make a dramatic entrance and exit.
Pants&Top:Zara|Pumps:Christian Louboutin|Bag:Reed Krakoff (similar here)
Happy Thursday to all my friends…the holiday weekend is almost here and I hope everyone has a great one. It has a tendency to rain every memorial weekend, so with any luck the weather will hold out. I am wearing these high-waisted trousers from Zara today with a simple striped sleeveless top and I have this beautiful tote from Reed Krakoff that has a pretty blue lining so my denim Louboutins are again, perfect as the top also has a blue stripe in it. The outfit is what I call casual chic…and I would be comfortable wearing it just about anywhere. I could also add the little jacket from yesterdays post with this if I needed a little warmth or wanted to dress it up a bit. I think I will go out and purchase a couple more of them because they are so great for that added something…
Tee:Zara|Jacket:Zara|Jeans:Joe's Jeans|Pumps:Christian Louboutin
First and foremost I would like to say Thank you to Megan for this beautiful ring!! I just love it and they have the cutest things at www.mosettejewelry.com Check them out!! I was in NY last week and I picked up a few things at Zara including this great graphic tee and the sweetest little jacket, which I’m sure will get a lot of use. This type of jacket can be worn with so many things…dress it up or down, it can be worn on a casual day with jeans or shorts or you can pair it with a skirt or over a dress. I love everything about it…the fabric and the pattern with the little bit of fringe around the edge just calls my name. Today I chose to wear it with a pair of white jeans and my denim Louboutin’s, which when I purchased I wasn’t sure I would get a lot of use out of them but they are quickly becoming a go to, they seem to match everything…so easy to wear.
Skirt:Alice & Olivia| Graphic Tee:Kate Spade (older, also love this one)
Good afternoon everyone and happy Tuesday,
Well I had a photo shoot yesterday and it was so windy it was ridiculous but all in all I got some really cute pics. I couldn’t decide which ones to post!! Feeling very Sarah Jessica Parker today in this Alice and Olivia skirt and we had so much fun shooting it. The wind was blowing it all over the place and all we did was laugh… got a lot of quirky shots but I think it gives them character. I had this Kate Spade live colorfully shirt and I love pairing graphic tees with skirts so I thought this one would be fun...(side note: Kate Spade has the best graphic tee’s) I very often will wear boots in the summer and my pink Christian Louboutin’s worked really well with this outfit also. Just adorable… I loved wearing it so much I didn’t want to take it off. To the new friends I met yesterday…I hope you enjoy my closet and thank you for following along!!
Jeans:Girl Cave Boutique|Sweatshirt:Banana Republic|
Good morning everyone,
Up bright and early this morning and headed into the city for some hair touch up, a little shopping and an event this evening. In the meantime todays post is the second piece from my collaboration with Girl Cave Boutique. These jeans are lightweight and high waisted…very comfortable and distressed at the knee. I have chosen to pair them with a great sweatshirt from Banana Republic and a pair of shoes I have had for a while now from Dusica and Dusica.
Skirt:Alice & Olivia (Last Seen Here)| Top:Joie|Pumps:Christian Louboutin|Bag:Chloe|Chain: David Yurman
I have had this sky blue leather skirt for so long and could never seem to put together an outfit that satisfied me. However, when I tried it on with my Joie plaid button down I loved the combination of colors. I thought the outfit looked way more chic with the shirt loosely tucked in and unbuttoned at the top. All I kept thinking when I had this on is...I do not want to look like an Easter egg!! I thought my denim pumps prevented this oh so awful situation and added a striking contrast.
Dress:Rebecca Taylor|Clutch:Chloe|Pumps:Christian Louboutin
I wore this outfit to an event last week and unfortunately I didn’t take many pictures in it. I am so in love with this dress so I HAD to make sure it went up on the blog. The cut is so feminine with the drop-waist ruffle and sheer fabric. It looks so beautiful when it flows in the wind. It feels like such a princess dress!! The crazy part is I wasn’t wild about it until I tried it on…and I immediately fell in love. Have you ever had the problem where you have an outfit and are running around like a madman last minute searching for shoes for it?? I feel like this would have been one of those outfits if I did not have these mesh Louboutin pumps. They could not have been more of a PERFECT match. For a bag I went with a faded rose-colored Chloé shoulder bag and tucked the straps in to use as a clutch. It looks so nice against the pale pink giving it a bolder color.
