Ballerina Bun Remix

It can be easy to get stuck in your same old usual hair style, so here is a perfectly fun way to mix up a classic, the ballerina bun.

I found this post on the wonderful Beauty Department blog and had to try it for work. I was a great way to mix up my hair styles and have a little fun.

Holiday Fashion

Here is a little inspiration from Atlantic Pacific for the perfect holiday outfit. You can never go wrong with gold and sparkles this time of year.

I hope your holidays are filled with wonderful treats, delicious drinks and family and friends. Merry Christmas all!

Cold Weather Fashion

In just over 12 hours I will be making my way from the beautiful California weather to the slightly more chilled Flagstaff cold. So because I am not used to the snow I am grabbing some inspiration from the lovely celebs. I'd have to say my two favorite looks are warn by my two favorite trend setters Mary Kate and Reese.

Who do you get your cold weather inspiration from?

Dresses&Boots

For those of you who know me know I love all things wedding. Everything from the celebrations leading up to the day to the decorating the day before and the event itself. But one of the things I love most are the photos, and not just the ones from the day of, but also the engagement shoot. It is a time for the bride and groom to show off their style and give a sneak peek into the theme of the wedding. A couple days back I came across a perfectly cute shoot on Green Wedding Shoes.

I love all the dresses warn by the bride-to-be. Her style is completely adorable and the accessories are completely perfect to add a little something to the outfit. I can not wait to see photos from their wedding.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

"W" Magazine

I am in love with the looks warn by the Fanning sisters for the December issue of "W" Magazine. The photos are simply stunning and the styling is completely perfect. This is the way black and white should be warn, classic and elegant with a twist of fun.

Holiday Parties

The Holidays are upon us and so the question remains, what to wear to that specific event? Well Lauren Conrad gives the scoop on the perfect outfit for all occasions.

Cool Chick

Dancing Queen

Pretty Lady

Hot Date

Gilded Girl

What look do you see yourself in most this Holiday season?

Patterns

Patterns are something that will never go out of style, but the way they are warn comes and goes. In fashion today it is not uncommon to find multiple patterns warn in the same outfit. This can either be a perfect blend or a fashion disaster. In this photo featured on the Sartorialist the mix of pattern is done perfectly right.

A few tips: make sure your patterns don't clash and the colors from your separates must go but do not need to match. And remember as long as you are confident in your outfit and do not let it work you others will notice and think it is as cute as you do.

Alfred Angelo

I don't know how many of you are Twilight fans and seen the latest movie Breaking Dawn but todays inspiration comes from just that. When I saw this dress I fell in love instantly. The front of the gown is average and I could do without the silk paneling on the sides, but the back is amazing. The lace detail is jaw dropping and the buttons flowing from the neack to the train is stunning. I wouldn't be surprised if this dress is seen in many weddings to come as well as recreations of it for the everyday look or even a red carpet affair. With one turn you'll be the talk of any party.

Alfred Angelos' replica can be found here.

Black Friday

The only reason I love Black Friday is because of the sales on clothing. But even that is not enough for me to get out of bed at 3 in the morning and go shopping. So to celebrate this day I found a look from Refinery29. It's the perfect way to be covered from head to toe in black.

Good luck with your shopping adventures today, may you find many deals and save lots of money.

A Little Fringe

It's not only the season for shopping but also for changing hairstyles. If you're looking for a change but not willing to change the color or go too drastic with the cut, why not add a little fringe? The Beauty Department gives a couple of the most in style bang cuts right now. Take a look at what's in, print out a few of your favorites and take the photo to your stylist. Don't be afraid of a little change.

Happy Tuesday!

Mens Fashion

I don't talk too much about mens style often, but after seeing this look I had to share. I love this blog of photos primarily taken in Oregon by Lisa Warninger of peoples street style. It is refreshing to see everyday people and the way their style represents themselves.

Check out urbanweeds.

Turtleneck

The turtleneck is making a comeback. To do this look right stay away from the cheap looking material such as cotton and purchase a two-toned sweater like the one shown on the blog Atlantic Pacific. Pair it with leather pencil skirt or a cute pair of jeans to get the perfect look for any occasion.

November

The Urban Outfitters November Catalog is here and I'm loving the looks for the upcoming seasons. One of my favorite looks is the set above. I love the mix of prints with the floral top and maxi skirt, and the idea of a sweater, skirt with pair of boots. These outfits are simple and stylish with staples ever girl should have in her wardrobe. Don't put your summer outfits away just yet. Mash them up with some Fall essentials and you have the perfect money saving look!

Celebrate Fall

This California weather is finally changing! Celebrate the 50 degrees with scarves, boots and a touch of rose gold.

Happy Saturday everyone! May your day be filled with fashion and hot cocoa.

Want this look?

Blue&Brown

Found this perfectly cute outfit for an everyday wear look. I love the jean blue top with the touches of brown accessories.

And simply swap out the heels and you are ready for a night out with the girls.

Happy Halloween!

I love this Holiday simply for the fact that it finally feels like Fall. The weather is changing the leaves are falling and before we know it Christmas lights will be shining, but lets not get ahead of ourselves.

If you are still stressing about the perfect costume here are some last minute ideas LC & Relevant Magazine share.

Happy Halloween! May your day be filled with delicious treats!

Peach Pant

Colored pants are the trend on the market and Lauren Conrad shows us the perfect way to style this look.

Flowers&Colors

You can find inspiration everywhere and today mine is found in the form of flowers and colors. I came across this photo on the lovely Joanna Waterfalls blog.

This head piece is beautiful and the colors are perfect for this time of year.

It's simply the start for a perfect outfit.

Project Runway

I just finished watching last nights episode and I must say I am thrilled that they are taking the top 4 designers to fashion week this year. I love Anaya and all that she has created this year. She knows how to style and dress women and I can not wait until next week to see what she sends down the runway as her final collection.

So 70's

Not only are flares coming back but all things 70's and I couldn't be more excited. Forget about Halloween the Brady Bunch look is an every day trend now.

Hats and Polka Dots

Kelli Murray shows through her blog that anyone can be a mom with style. This blog of art and fashion is simply beautiful and her baby is the cutest thing ever... check it out!

Trio of Hair Styles

I love Refinery29's blog. You can find anything from Street Style, to Runway, to Makeup and more. I came across this hairstyle and found it a perfect finish for any outfit. Its messy but perfect in every way.

Paperbag Short

Don't put these in storage just yet. Add a pair of boots and tights and you have the perfect outfit for a chilly Fall night.

Find this Look:

Scarf

Jacket

Shorts

Tights

Boots

Bag

Forget Color

Color blocking has been in for the last couple seasons but with this look color is out the window. Don't be afraid to stray away and go for an all nude look. Its classic and beautiful and can be warn on a night out or a day to work.

Maxi

Maxi skirts are the go-to style right now. Its perfect for a warm day and a chilly night. Throw on an oversized top with a light sweater, maybe some boots and you're ready to walk out the door looking your best.

High-low

I fell in love with this trend instantly and I am glad to find it is sticking around for the Fall season.

Street Perfect

I wish I lived in a place where we had all four seasons and outfits like this cold be warn.

Transition

I found this look and decided it was perfect for this time of year. When looking at collections it is easy to find the perfect look for the time of year when it is cold, hot or rainy, but what do you wear when the weather is in that awkward in between stage?

How about a sweater, boots, some cutoffs and a few cute accessories to spruce up the whole look? Perfect for Summer days and Fall feeling nights.

Fur for Fall

As Summer is soon coming to a close Fall is on the rise. The only thing that comes close to being more exciting than the fashion is the pumpkin treats, but right now all that consumes my thoughts is what styles are to come.

After this mornings work day I noticed fur is making a comeback. Whether it be foe-fur or the real deal you'll be sure to see this look on the streets and the runway this coming season.

Fall Fashion

Fall fashion is just around the corner and the trend that seems to be taking center stage...

Flares. The skinny jean is out and the flare is back, but the high waisted look is still here. This look is based off the 1970's style. A few things to take note: make sure the flare is wider than your foot and keep the style loose but structured. This is not a reenactment of the baggy jean but also not tight and structured on the thigh and flare at the knee like the look in the 90's.

To get this look shop here.

Maryna Linchuk

I love this simple black outfit with the pop of color on the lip.

The accessories add a little something as well, to take this outfit from black and bland to street ready.

Fashion Faceoff

Through the media we often see celebrities sporting the same trends but the question always sounds as to who wore it better? In the case of Swift vs Lively what do you think?

Taylor often is found in feminine styles and manages to make that clear through the bows and neutrals warn in with this Tibi floral-print frock, where Blake takes the more edgy side and adds a pop of color through her bag and cheetah print shoes.

Though I think they are both adorable I'd say Lively wins this battle. Not only does the dress seem to fit her frame better but I like the pops of color and the risk she took with they edgier style.

What do you think?

Beat the Heat

With these summer hair trends.

Paint Inspired

Seeing this post made me want to paint my nails.

Now as to what color...

Street Style

I'm loving these street styles captured by the Sartorialist. The black and white is so classic but I love how each women added a little edge to their outfit.

Simply stunning in New York.

Have a lovely Saturday everyone.
