The pale palette still feels decidedly fresh and evergreen this season...

{animal instinct}

Looks like the lion has lost his crown as the king of the jungle, with the leopard getting all the attention this Fall season. If there is one print or pattern that never goes out of style, it is the garishly loved and constantly updated animal print. If you're wondering what your next purchase should be to help transition into Fall, I suggest you take a cue out of my "blog." I'm clearly suffering from feline fever this season as I double-dip in leopard with my trans-seasonal coat and printed calf-hair clutch, accompanied by an equally eye-catching red lip. In addition to playful animal prints I'm smitten with prim, ladylike silhouettes that create high-impact. Animal prints are a great way to energize your wardrobe.

When the sun is shining there is nothing more feminine than a fresh, floral summer dress. Far a daytime take on this trend I opted for a ditsy floral printed Tibi dress. Summer's freshest trend yet...

I wish everytime I reblogged an outfit, it automatically appeared in my closet...Happy Friday!

Inspired by classics this season I showcased this simple but memorable ensemble as I kicked off Spring 2012 at work. These timeless, can't live without pieces have serious staying power. I am currently obsessing over the J. Crew "Minne", a closet chameleon that works with practically everything. Then there's my latest purchase, the J. crew Blythe Blouse, which has been in such high-demand that it's on back-order for over a month. It's the perfect button up to stop your co-workers in their tracks. Finally, my not-so-practical pumps have set new standards. These Lanvin midnight blue ankle strap pumps are my latest go-to. If you're looking to win your audience over during a work presentation strap on some stunners and you'll have them eating out of your hands. Pair these classics with precious metals and you look instantly polished.
