It's Spring?













I was having a bad hair day and didn't know what to do with it so I did everything with it. Plus, it was soooo windy ugh. Is this even Spring? geez!






 My pseudo spring break look. I'm acting like I'm going somewhere warm - my final destination this year is Minnesota...yup....Minnesota. I'm not complaining though because I get to see my ADORABLE nephew and my sister :D. The Bahamas can wait till another time.

Bright colors, geometric print and Black&white are trending this spring. OH and how could I forget strappy sandals

Anyhu, HAPPY HAPPY Spring Break to my fellow MIT-ers and to anyone who happens to have their spring break as late us ours.


HAPPY MONDAY

Yours Truly,

Baroque Me!












Two must-haves this season are Baroque prints and nude strappy sandals to compliment your spring/summer dresses.

In true Steve Madden style my nude shoes are a very good look-a-like for the Schutz spiked sandal heel which was priced at about $300. Steve Madden offers them for only a third of that price.

You can tone this look down some more by wearing silver or nude flats  or even adding gold accents instead of silver ones.

Two more weeks till it's officially spring! :D


HAPPY MONDAY!

Have an amazing week


Yours Truly,

Silver and Stripes











I chose to wear a skirt today (just for le shoot) as a kind of Spring preview. I changed in to black jeans after, with the same shoes and jewelry. This outfit could also be pair with flats for a more casual look. This Spring look out for black and white outfit combinations, black and white stripes (sometimes paired with a pop of color) as well as geometric looks and patterns. I don't know about you but I'm looking forward to some warmth and an opportunity to wear fewer layers. The weather in Boston has been pretty "ugh" lately. As you can tell from the gloominess of le photos, it was pretty "ugh" today and I think I might have rained/snowed a bit (after le shoot).


These last few weeks have been a whirlwind. School has kept me busy and away from le blog and it looks like that might not change. I definitely will not be posting weekly, perhaps every two or three weeks depending on my work load - I will not disappear, I promise :) I will also try to put up "Trends on a Budget" post soon as well as some of my favorite runway shows from the S/S 13 and F/W13 Fashion Weeks (Milan, Paris, London, etc). I am planning a Spring-esque post for next week though :) So keep an eye out!

Goodnight my lovelies.

HAPPY MONDAY!
