Chevron! Chevron! Chevron!

These days I'm in love with all things chevron!  This simple print is elegant yet modern and trendy yet uncluttered.  And lately,  it's EVERYWHERE!!  From rugs to dresses and purses to fingertips...you can find this chic print on everything. Here are some of my favorites...

Side Table Staycation

As anyone who knows me would tell you... I LOVE to travel! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!  Some of my friends may even say I reminisce about my trips a little too much!  I mean honestly? What's better than travelling?...shopping WHILE travelling?? Perhaps... but I'll save that for another post!   To keep the memories alive, I try to decorate my place with cool pictures I've taken in exotic locales and vintage travel posters...anything to remind me of the wonderful memories I've been so fortunate to enjoy! So when I came across this little number, I couldn't resist! A chic and modern side table I picked up for only $25!

The black metal construction and white tempered glass make it look cool and industrial; and the subway art lettering announce my affection for some of the greatest destination cities around the world!  I've added my own colorful accessories to make it a warm and inviting conversation piece. Now, when my guests need somewhere to put their wine glasses, they will find it... in Rome, Paris, Dublin...

Hello Lover!

Ladies, You know that feeling! When you see it from across a crowded store...it catches your eye and immediately you know...This was meant to be! Of course I'm talking about the moment you find that perfect pair of shoes or that amazing bag and then you notice that perfect little word: SALE! Then, you land that amazing deal...the kind you just want to shout from the rooftops! This weekend I was lucky enough to witness two such serendipitous occasions of shopping genius!

Shopping at Nordstrom Rack's famous "clear the racks" clearance sale this weekend, one lucky lady landed an AMAZING deal on this delicious Chloe Marcie Shoulder bag. This little Italian number features the classic Chloe design and chic gold hardware that makes it irresistible. Here is the best part, brace yourselves ladies. This bag retails for $1795, Nordstrom Rack Price: $499!  Yes you read that right!  CHA CHING!!!!!!!!!!

Shopping with my fashionista mom this weekend, we had the good fortune of finding these hot Tory Burch Cantrelle Peeptoe heels at Bloomies. The signature "T" on the back makes it even more delectable!  Super Sexy and yes... on sale! Regular price: $295 Bloomies Sale price: $117! WHAT!?!  I know it's Sick!  Well Done Mom!

Keep shopping ladies, you never know when the shopping gods will be smiling down on you!! Wishing you sales on just the thing you have been looking for!!

Haute Pink!

Pink is definitely one of the hottest colors this summer! It's not only for bubble gum and little girls anymore...It's everywhere!  We all think of pink and its melon and magenta cousins as sweet, youthful, sugar-coated hues but this season's splashes of pink are also sophisticated, cosmopolitan, and totally chic!

This lovely fashionista looks uptown and polished in her gorgeous royal blue Lush dress; the salmon-color belt and trim accent make it extra special and totally on-trend! Her Neverfull Louis Vuitton tote is personalized with hot pink monogram... super cute!

Keeping with the pink trend, I picked up this delicious little Danielle Nicole coral jelly clutch for only $20 this weekend. It will look great with jeans and a tee or a little sundress for summertime cocktails!  Jelly bags are totally it right now:  they are versatile, inexpensive, and available in a rainbow of colors. Check out some of these Jellies!

Stay Happy fashionistas! And please follow me already! :) Merci!

Celebrate Your Right to be Fabulous!

Hello Style Civilians!!!  Happy Fourth of July to all of you! Time to celebrate what an awesome country we live in and all of the freedoms that we sometimes take for granted. With everything happening around the globe right now it reminds me more and more of how lucky we really are to believe whatever we choose to believe, say whatever we'd like to say, and of course dress how we want to dress....fiercely fashionable! ;-)

To kickoff my Independence Day celebrations, I left work midday to have a lovely lunch by the sea with one of my favorite fashionista friends. After lunch we had a seriously productive shopping day... four hours of paving the pavement awarded us with chic (and affordable) finds that will no doubt show up in future blog posts so stay tuned!

We stumbled on a trendy new upscale restaurant Salt7 where we ran into a few co-workers. Relaxing into the comfy yet modern atmosphere we reviewed our new treasures and met new friends while enjoying delicious drinks and appetizers. Check out the great looking couches and yummy apps perfect for sharing! Highly recommended if you are in downtown Delray!

Here I am enjoying a dirty martini in my patriotic red and white stripes!

I hope you all enjoy a wonderful July 4th holiday with your families and friends! Remember to celebrate what is really important: your right to be  Happy (and Fabulous)! Until next time my fellow fashionistas... xo
