back.2.back

The warmer weather heading our way in the next couple months means taking some layers off and showing a little more skin! A look we are loving is dresses + tops that show a little skin from the back! Subtly sexy.

Courtin-Clarins clan.

The Courtin-Clarins sisters are a quartet of beauties I love seeing pictures of. Sisters Virginie + Claire, and twin cousins Jenna + Prisca are socialite royalty of the Clarins brand {Grandpa Jacques founded it}. Their Parisian inspired style and flowing locks got the people of NYC asking, "Who are these beauties?" last year, and they have since become faces of the city. But you won't find your typical socialite antics here. These girls are involved in the family business from the design of products to sitting in on the company's board meetings and strategy of partnerships.

Their sense of style is inspired from their treks around the globe, and people of the industry are definitely taking notice.

Statement.

This spring we are all about one thing. Statement jewelry. Styling an outfit and letting the jewelry run the show.

Dazzling necklaces, bold bracelets; easy pieces to wear that make the most basic outfit get noticed. I love nothing more than wearing a great pair of jeans with a basic tank or top and throwing on a must-have necklace that speaks for itself. For weddings and other events I find myself building my look around a striking cuff or breath-taking pair of earrings.

{This look by Rag + Bone + M.A.D. Eddie necklace + M.A.D. Zoe ring= Easily structured + refined.}

{A perfect cotton dress by Philosophy + M.A.D. Armour bangle + Jeweled Goddess earrings= from bland to graciously bold.}

The term, minty fresh just took on a whole new meaning! Fresh is right friends!

Dieing, obsessing, and totally addicted to this shade for spring. Pastels are the perfect refreshing colors to lighten up your look, and this mint shade has us more excited for a color than we have been in a long time.

Oscar Sunday.

The ladies at the Academy Awards last night definitely did one thing right. They brought true hollywood glamour to the red carpet. This is movie star. And these were the 3 ladies that took our breath away...

Gwenyth Paltrow was everything in Tom Ford. Best dressed of the night. Cape included.

Not too sure just anyone could pull off this look, but there was something about Michelle Williams in this Louis Vuitton gown that made me want to pick her up and put her pretty little self in my pocket. She looked like a dolly. The layered peplum detail, the femininity, the perfect little bow... super sweet and elegant.

Milla Jovovich nailed it. Really, truly, just down right nailed it. This is how you do the Oscar red carpet. Perfect hair, perfect lip, perfect accessorizing. Perfect in Elie Saab.

maxi must.

The end of February is a time we start getting antsy. The hustle of Christmas, New Years Eve, and Valentines Day is over. The display of Fashion Week makes us a little bored with our winter frocks we've been donning the past few months, and the spring lines entering the stores have us craving the sun and lighter + brighter fabrics.

A favorite of ours that we can't wait to wear once the weather warms up?  

Maxi dresses and skirts.  

Flowey, floor-grazing style; maxi dresses are easy to pull off no matter what your body type. There are great variations of pieces you can wear with them. Creating casual or glam looks are easily done with a maxi. Add in a tank, a loose-fitting top, a cropped leather jacket, the possibilities are endless.

This spring, maxis are a must have.
