Trend Spotting: All That Glitters

metallic dresses

 

If you have access to the internet, fashion magazines or any other style resource, then chances are you’ve noticed that metallics are popping up everywhere. Gold capped shoes, glittery belts and bags and sequined sheaths are suddenly gracing the pages of just about every magazine. They’re so prevalent that several reflective pieces have unintentionally made their way to the top of my wish list – all of these dresses are simultaneously party appropriate and casual (when paired with a jacket, of course).

Currently Obsessed With: Bows

bows

 

I’ve always been a big fan of bows – on tops, shoes, jewelry, presents – and have recently been finding tons of items featuring them. I’ve found them in their natural 3-D form and as printed graphics, on everything from tops to gloves to rings and bracelets. All of these chic pieces will make the perfect addition to any holiday ensemble. An added bonus? The metallics and rich jewel tones are completely on-trend.

Tick Tock

watches

I’ve always loved the idea of a watch, but when it comes to checking the time, I usually reach for my iPhone. But, after seeing several features on the classic timepiece in some of my favorite magazines (Lucky, Marie-Claire) – namely the newly-in-vogue white watch – I was inspired to check out some of my most frequented sites for watches. These may just be the ones to turn me.

Prep School

Target Shirt, Forever 21 Sweater, NY&Company Jeans, Rocket Dog via DSW Flats, NY&Company Necklace

I may have lied a bit in my last post, but I promise my schedule is officially cleared now – in October I had a considerable amount of work to do, from books to read to places to go to a Halloween party to plan and then host, not to mention a hurricane in the midst of all of that – but now I finally have a chance to get back into the habit of posting.

I’ve always loved the idea of wearing a classic button-up under a sweater, but haven’t had the right sweater to pull off the look until now. I liked this easy alternative to my usual lazy outfit of a button up, cropped jeans and oxfords – it adds an extra element to the mix, while providing another layer of warmth for these chilly transition-into-winter months.

Rabbits

Top: H&M (old), Skirt: H&M, Shoes: Born via DSW

I apologize for having been gone so long – I’ve had a pretty hectic schedule lately! I promise I’m back now, though. This skirt has been my obsession since I first saw it in H&M a month back. I was immediately drawn to the stripes of bunnies in various poses, but later discovered that it features a bow at the paper-bag waist and roomy pockets, three factors that, when added with the adorable print, had me running to the cash register.
