Look Of Spring: Florals + Patent Leather


You first saw them here and here and now with March comes spring and with spring come the florals and with the florals come the dread you'll look like a five year old. So don't be a shy daisy and toughen up the season must print with some rockin' patent leather. Remember this look isn't for wallflowers.

Must Read For Fall



Dust of those Fendi reading glasses: The Uberchic Style Icons of the Year are coming out with a must read book for fall.

Ashley and Mary Kate Olsen are working on a coffee-table book about fashion, titled "Influence".

The book will include exclusive photographs of Ashley and Mary-Kate from photographer Rankin, and a wide variety of other never-before-seen materials and interviews from Mary-Kate and Ashley's personal collections.

The twin fashionistas will also be writing about photographers, artists and designers including Bob Colacello, Terry Richardson, Jack Pierson and Christian Louboutin.

I, for one, can't wait.

February Inspiration


Inspiration can come from anywhere. No doubt Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig where inspired by Ghesquiere's festive spring confection to create the opening look of their fall collection.

So I decided to take inspiration from three different sources (the runway, celebrities, and music) to give new ideas for February.

Runway
This 3.1 Phillip Lim looks like something a model would wear off the runway. And since spring is coming why not ad a little floral scarf or bright yellow clutch?



Hollywood
Celebrities know that sunglasses are the only way to protect themselves from all the pap flashes and right now they are going the (very) dramatic route with huge sporty shades.

And yes that is Britney at this lovely blog but I do adore those Gucci sg's.




The Music Video
So the song is a bit old but I just couldn't get it out of my head and the imaginative video inspired me to pick the best t's for überchic ladies and gents.

Justice's D.A.N.C.E.




What inspires you this month?
