Obsession of the Day

First off-- new header! You like it? I just get bored with my header/layout so easily...and I love this one, I worked so hard on it. A few things I noticed online in these past few days:



This simple, studded Alice + Olivia dress is so gorgeous and very versatile. It can be either edgy or feminine with the right accessories.



I think everyone has seen this Juicy Couture coat in the ivory and/or red colors, but when I saw it in this print, I nearly died. I love the geometric print, it looks so 60's. This is such an adorable coat for a chic winter.



Browsing around ShopBop, I found a line called Pencey (that's what I love about ShopBop, they have the big designers and the tiny ones that you discover and adore) that I immediately loved. This turquoise cinched waist dress is so pretty and comes in purple and black as well.



This vest from Topshop is perfect for a feminine take on menswear. I would pair it with a plain white tee, gray or black skinny jeans, and black boots.



Another great feminine-menswear blend, this Rag & Bone jumper from ShopBop. This is simple and chic, and would look fabulous with black opaque tights, a tee underneath, and oxford pumps.


I love this metallic bronze dress by 3.1 Phillip Lim. I love the delicate pleats and the pleated collar- they look so adorable.

Week's Worth of Outfits

I'm gonna get right to it--

MONDAY:



This Rory Beca tank is simple and understated, but still has some flair that makes it something more than just a tank top.



Over the tank, try this adorable J.Crew chain-print cardigan. I am VERY proud of myself for not picking the Schoolgirl cardigan (...but there's some in this post, too...I'M ADDICTED TO THEM...). I love this unique print- it's so cute and adds interest to any outfit.



These Topshop shorts are a perfect match with your top.



And under the shorts, your basic Sparkle & Fade black tights.



Add some girly bling with this pink rhinestone Kenneth Jay Lane bangle.



I really think these are the exact shoes Mary-Kate wore in my Week in Fashion post. Either that or they are incredibly similar. These fuchsia satin flats are by Jinny Kim from Milk.

TUESDAY:




This orange Foley + Corinna paillette tank is so gorgeous- I love the color and the sequins! This can work for school or a dressier occasion.



I don't care, I'm just going to keep putting the Schoolgirl Cardigan in every single Week's Worth of Outfits. They are just the most perfect thing EVER. I just love cardigans...anyway, leave this unbuttoned so you can see the tank.



Pair it with these Deener jeans from Ron Herman.



I love this Gara Danielle bangle, it complements the entire outfit. This gold bracelet is both simple and very unique.



For your shoes, these J.Crew flats are fantastic to put with all of your other pieces. I must get some sparkly shoes very soon...

WEDNESDAY:



Start with your basic James Perse long sleeved tee from ShopBop. I love James Perse pieces- they are comfortable, simple, but still so fashionable.



Layer on this Anna Sui top, which I am completely and utterly OBSESSED with. The turquoise paper clip print is so fun and unique, just like everything else she does.



Some simple skinny black pants are flattering and polish off the outfit quite nice. I love these BDG ones from Urban Outfitters.



Add a little more sparkle to the look with these amazing blue-green-turquoise J.Crew flats. Don't these remind you of a mermaid? Maybe I'm just being...me.

THURSDAY:



This cobalt blue Lux babydoll dress is adorable with tights or bare legs, with a cardigan (hehe) or without, I just love it...



Over it, this J.Crew jacket makes the dress more sophisticated. Again, unbutton this jacket just to keep it more casual.



Put on these French Connection tights under it.



I love this variety of bangles from Forever 21- both the black and the purple look great with the blues and grays of this outfit.



These gorgeous navy satin Maloles flats from ShopBop are so elegant, the ruching makes them even prettier.

FRIDAY:



This dress by Velvet is so breezy and can work with any season. I love how it's wrinkled, so you can just throw it on without messing with the iron...



Accessorize with this bea-u-tiful hot pink Miu Miu buckle bracelet. This is a perfect mix of punk and extremely feminine.



More gorgeous Miu Miu completes the look- these gold flats.

SATURDAY:



This military-esque Amanda Uprichard top from Barneys is so adorable- I love the bright red color and gold buttons.



I am loving Anlo jeans right now, they always look so sophisticated.



This Rachel Leigh resin bangle is fabulous to add another splash of color to your outfit.



Sigerson Morrison consistently makes beautiful and elegant shoes to fit any event. These strappy gold flats are so versatile.

SUNDAY:



Start with this bright red long sleeved tee from Urban Outfitters.



Layer on this amazing yellow See by Chloé short sleeved sweater from Net-a-Porter over. This is the perfect standout sweater for this fall/winter season, it's so chic.



These simple, clean Hudson skinny jeans from ShopBop finish the look perfectly.



These are simply the most gorgeous flats I have ever seen (maybe...I do look at many flats that are very gorgeous). Of course they're Prada...

p.s. I felt like this week was a little weak (hah...weak..week...I'm immature). I'm really running out of juice, I'm so tired! Oh well, I think it's pretty good.

Because Nothing's More Stylish than a MC Hammer Romper

I was looking at urbanoutfitters.com for possible Week's Worth of Outfits clothes, when I stumbled upon this atrocious...monster.



What is this? Tell me what this is...oh, let's check the description:

Soft knit convertible harem pants cut in a loose and relaxed easy fit with a dropped rise and wide leg trimmed with a cinched cuff. Can be worn as a tube top onesy or folded over as classic Hammer-Don't-Hurt-Em harem pants.

Of course...a tube top onesie or classic Hammer-Don't-Hurt-Em harem pants. Why didn't I think of that before? HAREM PANTS? HAVE WE NOT SEEN THOSE SINCE ALADDIN?!?! I just can't understand this piece of clothing...

A Week in Fashion

A quick post about my favorite celebrity looks this week-



Sienna looks amazing in this LBD. It's feminine but edgy, and fashion forward but still avant-garde. I love the hair, too...no more Heidi braids! Haha, we'll never let her forget that...



I love Mary-Kate Olsen. She is just...brilliant. She's always so unique with her style and influences tons of girls around the world. This black dress she wore to the Jenni Kayne store opening looks adorable on her- I love the volume, and belting it was fabulous. And check out her clutch!



More Mary-Kate. I love how she wore an all-black outfit with a gorgeous colored bag and shoes. Where can I GET THOSE?



Kate Moss looks fabulous with her new bangs, and this outfit is gorgeous too. I love the monochromatic gray on her- especially the scarf! The patent Mary Janes are adorable as well.



Okay, I hate Mischa's hair, it really washes her out, but her clothes are great. I must have that turquoise jeweled cardigan...



Cameron Diaz= fabuloussss. She pulls off her high waisted skirt flawlessly and the summery color palette looks gorgeous. Can I just steal her entire wardrobe?



Lastly, Kate Bosworth at a Fendi dinner. I love her masculine-feminine tie dress, the collar is absolutely adorable! And killer shoes...

Week's Worth of Outfits

MONDAY:




This breezy, effortless-chic dress from Juliana Jabour (love that name...) is adorable and perfect to be fashionable and comfortable at the same time.



Add simple black opaque tights and...



these gold bangles from Nordstrom.



For another gorgeous and unexpected pop of color, finish the outfit with these lime green Tory Burch flats- this color is so pretty.

TUESDAY:



A simple basic like a racerback tank is great to start an outfit. Add on interesting prints, colors, or shapes to it and your outfit will be fabulous.



This adorable Marc by Marc sweater is so unique. The colors and geometric pattern makes it really one of a kind.



These Raven jeans are simple and showcase the rest of your fabulous outfit!



Another unique spin to the outfit is adding these Moschino Cheap & Chic metallic flats. These are so cute and versatile- they can go to an elegant party or a day at school.

WEDNESDAY:



This J.Crew top is beautiful- the satin detailing and ruching is absolutely gorgeous. This can also work anywhere, it's just so pretty.



Layer this Urban Outfitters tee under, the similar shades create a monochromatic look that is so elegant.



Put on these Matthew Williamson shorts from Net-a-Porter next. These are chic and clean, and so versatile.



Add these ribbed Missoni tights, also from Net-a-Porter. These look so comfortable and will give a more interesting vibe to every outfit.



My latest obsession- these J.Crew Twinkle flats. These are so fantastic, I just can't find adequate words to describe them. They're girly and glittery and FABULOUS.

THURSDAY:



James Perse is great for basics with a twist, like this tank. The button straps add a little something extra to this otherwise very simple top.



If you know me and this blog well, you will know the first thing I noticed about this cardigan- THE COLOR! Electric blue, wowwww. I love it!



This denim brand I had never heard of, Sling & Stones, made these adorable jeans. They are made with eco-friendly denim, so that's a plus. I love the square buttons, they just look so cool.



Finish with these very cute J.Crew flats, made of suede and satin, two luxe materials in one adorable flat.

FRIDAY:



I love this navy Marc by Marc top- the ruffled sleeves are so feminine. This can go great with jeans, pants, or skirts, a perfect versatile top.



Yes, I know I put this same skirt in a previous WWOO, but I couldn't help putting it again in this color. I just love this skirt- it's so 60's chic. I must buy it...



These silver Nadri Pave bangles from Nordstrom are a good accent to the navy and pink palette of this outfit.



Finish with these patent Marc by Marc flats.

A Note about Night:

I've decided to stop my night outfits, I'm sorry if anyone is disappointed, but really, who's going to parties two nights in a row with dresses that...pretty! I love doing the day outfits, but night just isn't my niche.

SATURDAY:



This ruffly cherry red J.Crew silk halter is so pretty. The ruffled neckline looks great on its own or peeking out of a sweater.



Make the elegant top more casual and appropriate for day by adding these William Rast jeans, which are topping my list of favorite denim brands. I am in love with everything Justin and Trace create...



For accessories, slip on this saffron yellow J.Crew bangle.

And shoes, go for the J.Crew crystal ballet flats. These flats have subtle crystals lining them, so it doesn't look too flashy.

SUNDAY:



To begin this outfit, a bright tank top is adorable. I love this bright blue one from Urban Outfitters.



I loooove this metallic cap-sleeve Topshop jacket- it's both sweet and rocker at the same time.



A simple skirt balances out the crazy jacket- this Topshop one is so cute.



These Donna Karan tights from Nordstrom are perfect for this look.



I saw these Steve Madden boots at Nordstrom and they are gorgeous. They are fabulous to end the week.
