Summer is officially here! As we approach the hot summer days and nights we have great inspiration from this seasons runway looks. Of course not all fashionistas can afford these looks but they are great sources of inspiration. Above I included some looks from Forever21 that can help you included that 70s style, stripes and tribal prints in your wardrobe. I personally own the first two items myself. The grey and white striped maxi dress I pair with strappy brown sandals and a braided belt. And the printed skirt pairs great with an over sized tank and brown or black strappy sandals.  Don't be afraid to take chances with your wardrobe and search places that you wouldn't normally look to.

Madewell Fall 2011 LookBook

Fall is absolutely my favorite season! The cold weather and plethora of layers and boots. So when I saw Madewell's Fall 2011 LookBook i fell deeply in love. They feature my current favorite trends, the maxi and pleated midi skirts along with killer boots.
I got lots of outfit inspirations from this lookbook. I even think I've gained confidence to wear my Docs with a dress!

Another Level!

Well Abbey Lee Kershaw has reached a new level of greatness in my book. She's not only a Supermodel but she is also in a band! Instead of hitting the NYFW runway she opted to tour with her band, Our Mountain, which also includes her boyfriend Matthew Hutchinson. Can this girl get anymore awesome? These pics are taken from the new issue of Russh.

Abbey Lee Kershaw

Atelier Versace S/S 2011 Look Book

One of these days in the near future I will be able to afford beautiful gowns like this and also have somewhere to wear them! These gowns are absolutely amazing, the rich colors and detail. A few of them even remind me of the flowers that bloom in the spring. But my favorite is definitely the rose pink gown at the top! It reminds me of  a beautiful tulip.

Of Human Bondage

Vogue Russia April 2011
Stylist: Sarah Richardson
Model: Abbey Lee Kershaw

So the bondage trend has taken a new light. It's not only the studs, leather, chains and body con anymore; leather harnesses are becoming a luxury and I am loving it. I know our culture is a bit critical about sex and expression of our bodies and dare i say bondage, but the way Sarah Richardson styled Abbey shows the public that the harness does not have to be locked up in your closet or thrown under your bed. It is a great accessory that adds an edgier detail to any outfit.This editorial makes me want to purchase a harness and pair it with a great skirt or a nice pair of slacks.

I have been lacking in post most recently, I must apologize and blame it on a bit of senioritis. My internship has been great and they have been keeping me busy since they are in the process of updating their website. I get to see some beautiful people and gain experience behind the scenes of an agency. Coming up the second week in April I will be interning for the Simon Malls Fashion Show, which I know will be a huge learning experience because I worked their Spring 2010 show last year. I have been suffering from mini anxiety attacks because I have been anticipating the arrival of an acceptance letter from a certain school in the east!
