May 20, 2011

style files

Posted 09/12

My favorite shade of green is Jade. Had to round up some faves I have spotted lately…..
1. Topshop 2. Smythson via Pinterest 3. Nico Necklaces 4. Old Navy 
5. Hunters (similar) 6. Max and Chloe 7. J. Crew
Inspired by…..
I miss the timeless style and classic beauty that inspired this photo. Women knew how to dress and Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn were the style icons you looked up to. I tend to think fashion peaked in their era. It seems a lot LESS fabric is worn now a days if you know what I mean.
I will be donning some 1920’s wear this weekend for a murder mystery surprise. Will make sure a share the photo on the fan page 😉 Happy Weekend!
