Eye Spy

Jacket - Nicole Miller
Shirt - Zara
Boots - Zara

I'd like to take a minute to appreciate and share about this incredible leather jacket.  I first made eye contact (haa....sorry) with it at the Nicole Miller showroom... and it was hard to stop looking.  After a bit of interrogation, I found out that it is one-of-a-kind, meaning you won't be able to find this in any stores.  But if you do really want to get your hands on it, you can check out the Jeffrey Fashion Cares event on April 3rd where they will be auctioning the jacket off in order to raise money to support the LGBT community.  I was certainly sad to hear that this was the only jacket made, but do check out their amazing "Artelier" jacket which I also fell in love with when I saw it up close (leather quality and stitching is impeccable).  

Since embellished jackets are such a big trend right now, I've additionally listed several (seriously amazing) on-trend options below, with both real and faux leather options and at some really great price points.  These are so much fun for the spring and will carry you through 'til fall, so it's hard not to justify a purchase like this.  

Happy Friday!

Layering Our Way to Spring

Vest - Black Swan

It's finally here! The season of blooming flowers, brighter colors, and warmer temps.  As always, my favorite trick for transitional weather is layers.  One way people don't think about using this trick though, is with outer wear.  I threw a vest over my jacket for a fun look that kept me warm- but was just enough when I was standing in the bright sun.

I think this season is also most fun for playing with accessories, because you can wear all different shoes and hats which aren't limited to those made to protect from the cold and windy weather.  I've been wearing these boots quite a bit because they are so versatile, and by the way - slouchy boots have been all over the runway so this trend will be around for a while, and therefore worth spending a little more on. 

Looking forward to creating more fun looks for the season, anything to get me out of this dreary winter mindset!  What do you look forward to this season?  I always love to hear new styling ideas.  

Happy Spring!
