Comfy Chic

After an incredibly crazy, hectic week like this one, I crave something comfortable (but of course chic) to slip into on the weekend.  These looks are fabulously stylish, yet easy and effortless.  Made of lightweight fabrics and created with less structure, these pieces are designed for movement and freedom.  This weekend, be comfy chic in one of these lovelies! We deserve a little fashion R&R. ♥ L

I Die!

I must admit, I am a huge Rachel Zoe fan. I love her as a stylist, fashion entrepreneur, undeniably funny TV personality, and now, designer. As RZ would say, I die over these flats! I love everything about them – the chic snakeskin print, the gold hardware, the tiny heel, and the classic shape. These flats will add instant style to your work outfit! I can’t wait to slip into these beauties!

Yellow: The New Neutral

In case you have not noticed, yellow is really taking over as the new neutral for spring. Wearing yellow just instantly brightens my day. This sunny, vibrant, playful color will add a bit of energy to your work outfit. With its neutral undertones, yellow can serve as a fresh neutral base to pair with your favorite prints and patterns. I particularly love yellow with leopard prints, other colors in the citrus family, and brights like pink, kelly green, and royal blue. To keep your look professional, choose well-tailored pieces in classic shapes. Live on the light side with these sunny pieces! Happy Monday!

Oh, Marc!

I am LOVING Marc by Marc Jacobs’ spring 2012 line.  Defined by playful prints and poppy colors, this collection is perfect for spring weekends!  I don’t know about you, but after a week of work clothes (P&P style or not), I am ready for some fun and playful prints on the weekends!  In lightweight, flowy fabrics, these pieces are easy and comfortable to wear.  Dream of Paris in the French Charm dress, share some love in the light-hearted top, keep it casual in the adorable Miss Marc Tee, or dress up for a fancier affair in the Night Bird Taffetta Dress. Wherever your weekend takes you, enjoy it in something vibrant and playful! ♥ L

Tote Time

For work, I am always looking for a great carryall tote.  Whether I am running to a client meeting, heading to a hearing in court, or traveling out of town, I need a durable, chic tote that will hold everything!  These are two of my favorites.  Both the Tory Burch Robinson Tote and the Michael Kors Jet Set Travel Tote are made with high-quality, scratch resistant leather.  And, they are big enough to hold all of your workday essentials.  Plus, they come  in several fabulous colors to brighten up your work day! I personally carry the Tory Burch Robinson Tote in Raspberry and love it! Happy toting!
