Effie’s Heart

Monday, August 1st, 2011

I’ve made another fabulous boutique find to share with you ladies! Effie’s Heart is full of unique, vintage inspired clothing and accessories for those days when you really want to stand out. We all love Forever 21, but it’s so annoying when you see five other people wearing the same top as you.

Thank goodness for indie designs like these!

Trend Alert: Boyfriend Letterman Cardigans

Friday, July 22nd, 2011

It is time to come to terms with the fact that it is Back to School season. Every store and website you visit is plastered with it! This is the first year I am not going back to school. (Remember, I finally graduated in May.) But that doesn’t mean I can’t partake in the shopping excitement!

One of the trends that caught my eye was the vintage inspired boyfriend letterman cardigan. These cardigans are a little more fun than a plain boyfriend sweater, don’t you think?

The Evolution of Color Block Style

Tuesday, July 19th, 2011

I’ve been reading around the fashion mags that there is a “new” trend: color block style.  How can this style be new when it has been around for almost a century!  If you don’t know what color block is, it’s when you have a piece with huge geometric sections of one or several colors. It all started in the 1920s with artist Piet Mondrian.

I have the biggest girl crush on Alison Brie. Some of you ladies may know her as Trudy Campbell from the AMC series Mad Men. Others may know her as Annie Edison, the cardigan queen from my favorite Thursday night show, Community.  Wherever you’ve seen her, she shows off her adorable sense of style.

Lucy in Disguise

Monday, July 11th, 2011

I have always been a big fan of Lily Allen’s music and style, but I have only recently discovered her fashion boutique Lucy in Disguise.   Started with her sister, it’s a haven for vintage lovers and is filled with gorgeous party dresses, accessories, and other fun finds from every era. The girls recently launched their own collection of vintage inspired clothing to complement the vintage gems in their boutique and I think they really hit the mark.

Here are some of my favorite pieces from their collection. Yes, I know almost all my picks are party dresses, but that’s just the kind of girl I am! :)
