Accentuate You

I feel like I need a redo for Monday...

I find it so interesting that Dior published his Fashion Dictionary book in 1954 and all of the things that changed. Also some that hasn’t. I absolutely love today’s word “Accent”. It’s like the exclamation point to your final look. I love things that are personal and an accent as Dior so perfectly puts, no one can do it better than you. Now, no one is really wearing a flower per say, but accents are still alive and well in the fashion world.

I’ve loved bees for a really long time. Far longer than the Gucci boom when you started to see them everywhere. This Swarovski bee pin is so fun to add to literally anything! A coat, blazer, or as shown here on a scarf. I feel like a pin in the perfect accent to any outfit. Find one that speaks to you.

Tuesday’s are weird. Hope yours isn’t. Get a strong coffee kick it’s ass.

The Final Touch

Happy Monday!

I must say, last week was HARD. But, as always I’m excited for a new week and new possibilities.

On this Monday, I’m talking about one of my favorite things…scarves!! Don’t believe me? Check out the photo below.

A few years back I did a post about scarves and my love for them hasnt changed. 

I think Dior got it right on this one and everything he says is still true to this day. It really is the final touch of an outfit and is absolutely so personal! I think that it can really make for a much more polished look and complete your appearance.

I hope you guys have some seriously hot coffee today on this freezing day (4 degrees here) and hey, maybe grab a scarf to stay warm.

Staying Warm

Greetings to you on this chilly Monday morning.

Well the winter snow is officially upon us and I thought this would be the perfect time to focus on Dior’s word of the week which is Coats!

This is hands down my favorite coat! When I first laid eyes on this beauty I was very pregnant and feeling pretty gross in everything I put on. But when I saw it I knew that it would be the perfect addition to my coat collection. It’s from Banana Republic and was a collaboration with my favorite style icon Olivia Palermo.

Dior touches on Summer coats which I love. But I think the kimono has sort of taken over the silk summer coat as it is so similar. Isn’t it funny that there was a time that you didn’t leave the house without a coat no matter the season? There were even house coats back then. Which I wouldn’t mind that coming back. He also talks a lot of practicality. In my opinion, red is very practical and goes with almost everything. The style of this coat is also timeless. Invest in pieces you’ll have forever.

Here’s to staying warm in a chic way in your favorite coat!
