Plot Twist.. Skorts Are Back

Plot Twist, I almost purchased a skort this week. Just ponder this for a second, one of the most iconic pieces from childhood is back for round two. I guess it makes sense though. These are the best articles of clothing for movement. You can do essentially anything without having an "whoopsie daisies" moment. Anyway it all started when I had my checkup in the city. Afterwards my mom and I decided to indulge in a trip to Zara. After browsing through the bright floral shorts, minty tops, and whopping  clutches, I laid my brown eyes on it. The gold zippers sealed the deal. As I sauntered over to the rack and grabbed a size, only then did it dawn on me. I was about to potentially purchase a skort. I was too excited to say the least. I proceeded to run to the dressing room. 

All Pepped Up

After tracking the shows this season, I was fixated by the peplum. I left Zara with a white peplum top….and a black peplum skirt. I couldn't stop myself. Im obsessed with the structured top and exploding bottom. Its almost a cape for you hips. What could be better?

Maxi Cardi's and Jackets Sans the Sleeves

If you haven't watched Notting Hill with Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts rent it immediately. Only then will you appreciate the word's "sexi cardi". Im lusting after the maxi cardi currently. I've been searching for one to keep me cozy from the chilly March weather. On a breezier note i'm super excited about the sleeveless jacket/ super long vest movement we are in the middle of. Especially since im begging for warmer weather. This piece affords you layering without becoming sweltering. Plus no sleeves = arm mobility…

Sunday Funday

On this lazy Sunday i've spent most of my time browsing the inter web and watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Im sitting here typing while simultaneously sobbing due to the death of Dobby. RIP free elf. On a more cheerful note Balmain had an amazing show with these incredible patterns and textures. The dresses are the marriage between outer space  and turtlenecks. They frame these models so insanely. AND some of them have pockets…. I don't know about you but pockets area huge plus when it comes to donning a dress. I also threw in some other pictures from the Sartorialist and LookBook. I adore the floral button down with the cutoffs. Also who knew you could wear (hmm not even sure what you call it) a chest ornament on top of a sweater. You go girl, slash I love the orange with the towering shoe.

Currently Lusting- Fur Coats

Even though its been an unseasonably warm February I still have a hankering for a fur jacket. I tried one at Maje and fell in love, sadly my mother didn't feel the same. Both this model from the Mr. Newton website and The Man Repeller look unquestionably cozy and chic in theirs. 

Spring Fling

Flipping through the pages of Vogue, Balenciaga caught my eye. After doing some more research on Style.com. I finally located these two skirts and immediately became enamored by there billowing shapes and ombre colors. They are exquisitely crafted and swish like no ones business. I've decided they are a hybrid between tassels and streamers. I cant think of anything better. 

Currently Lusting- Minty Fresh

It hit me yesterday, when I scooped a bowl of mint chocolate chip ice cream. Lady Gaga called it…in her "Marry the Night" music video she told us that mint would be a spring "it" color. Id be lying if I said I wasn't currently lusting over it. Its light, fresh, and still provides that pop of color. Not to mention the herb itself is quite tasty, whether it be in ice cream or lemonade. But most of all i'm looking forward to sporting it on the streets this spring.
