Behind the Scenes: Christopher Kane SP13

Darlings, I cannot even being to tell you how much I enjoyed Christopher Kane's Spring 2013 Collection as it was filled with sleek silhouettes yet adorned with modern feminine details (ie my favorite ... bows!). To top it all off the color palette was absolutely exquisite grounded in pinks, yellows, and soft neutrals.

Wedding Wednesday: Sophisticated Soiree

For today's Wedding Wednesday I could not help but share a gorgeous wedding recently featured in Martha Stewart Weddings. Although the event took place at an estate in New York, Annie and Oliver's wedding exuded classic European elegance and grandeur. Every detail was utterly exquisite, including the bride's ostrich feathered gown, which was her own design. I truly cannot get enough of this glamorous affair!

Cuff Stuff

Lately, I cannot get enough of a solid Hermes' Cuff. It is the ultimate accessory to sport this Fall as it adds the perfect touch of toughness to an other wise ladylike outfit.

Doesn't Get More Adorable than D. Porthault Bloomers

Darlings, it truly does not get more adorable than these D. Porthault baby bloomers! I am pinching myself for not buying them when they were on sale at One Kings Lane last week! What an absolutely perfect baby gift they would be. Oh, D. Porthault you truly can do no wrong!

Equestrian Influence

 

I truly cannot enough of talented photographer, Jamie Beck’s depiction of the Annual Hamptons Classic horse show as I am utterly inspired by traditional equestrian attire this Fall (Well, let’s be honest – that is EVERY Fall season!) The glamorous David Yurman sponsored event was filled with brilliant baubles and buckets of bubby … what could be better?

Little Looks: ODLR Children's Wear S/S 13

I truly cannot tell you enough how delighted I was to see Oscar de la Renta's first children's wear show this week! As you all know well by now, I am a huge fan of Oscar's designs and it was absolutely wonderful to see him translate his classic aesthetic and elements into darling children's clothing.    For a greater look behind the musings of the Oscar de la Renta children's line you must check out the blog of their Creative Director (& mother of two!), Marissa Kraxberger, George & Ruby... prepare to swoon as it is utter delight!  xx, {images compliments of: George & Ruby Pinterest}

Oh, So Audrey

 

Usually, I have an extremely difficult time finding sunglasses, which frame my face well. Does anyone else have this problem?! Thus, I was utterly delighted when perusing Barneys NY this weekend to find these fabulous Prada Cat Eye Sunnies! With their chic shape they totally make me feel like I am channeling Audrey Hepburn when wearing them. I have a feeling I will be sporting this perfect pair for years to come. What are your favorite pair of sunglasses?

NYFW Spring 2013 Street Style: A Twist on the Classics

 

Every Fashion Week I truly look forward to the style on the streets as much as the runways! While Fashion Week is the time for many to wear there most outrageous clothing, this past week during Spring 2013 NYFW I have noticed so many women incorporating classic pieces into their outfits. (always adding a fashionable twist, of course!). I must say I personally ADORE these chic looks!

Lately I'm Loving .. Cable & Tulle

 

Lately, I am absolutely loving the look of a fabulously full tulle skirt paired with a classic cable sweater as I am utterly inspired by the Fall 2012 Dior show (pictured above!). It is the perfect look as we transition into true Fall.

I would love to get this look by pairing this gorgeous Alberta Ferretti Skirt with this classic Ralph Lauren Cashmere Cable Sweater.
