Peek-a-boo socks are my new thing. 

I'm loving them so much. 

All thanks to Ms. Kendi Everyday

Whats sad is that I'm just assuming the summer is going to be cold enough for socks. You're disappointing me, Minnesota!

Guys, seriously. 

I called this like a year ago but be honest with me, are overalls back? 

You can't tell me your junior high self isn't just a little bit excited.

spring 2013 trend report: global prints

If you're go-to style is boho, why not spice things up with some global patterns? Don't be intimated by their loud prints and colors. It is very do-able! Just throw on that jacket with a pair of boyfriend jeans and a white tee and you will be the ultimate trend-setter.

After posting a recent wanted, lately post, a friend of mine asked if I could make a similar one for men. So, here is my first attempt. Fellow guy friends, where are some of your favorite places to shop? I need some fresh sites to check out for round two of his style.

Nasty Gal Wishlist

I could easily blow a million dollars in under 5 minutes over at Nasty Gal. Sometimes I imagine I have the bank account of someone like Kim Kardashion (booty, too) and pretend that it wouldn't be life-shattering if I spent over $100. Yeah, I know I'm cheap. I'm a recent college graduate living in my parent's basement... you think I have such luxuries? So anyway,  I thought I would share with you guys some items that are on my wish list. The two main things that NEED to be in my life are both items of jewelry: lipstick earrings are like my equivalent of old ladies' christmas earrings & that zodiac bracelet. Both things I'm obsessed with: lipstick and astrology. Nasty Gal, you know me.

Forever 21's Exclusive Design Collection

The Budget Fashionista recently shared with us some looks from Forever 21's new Exclusive Designs Lookbook. I always have mixed feeling about Forever 21. I love how affordable their clothes are and that there is alway plenty of variety in the stores. BUT HOT DAMN, it's so hard to shop in there. It is always a mess, always packed, always a line wrapping around the store for the dressing room. Is it just a Mall of America thing or is it like that every where? I must say, though, that stepping foot into the 3 story Forever 21 on Michigan Avenue in Chicago was an out-of-this-world experience. I could have spent hours in that place if Alvi wasn't with me (poor guy). There were so many lines and collections that I didn't even know existed! I think I spent the majority of money from our Chicago trip (besides all the money spent on taxis) solely in that store. Worth. Every. Penny.

My favorite that I've seen so far? This black & white striped jacket.

Green with Envy

Leave it to Jessica Alba to make me swoon over an outfit. Blazers have been making their way into people's closets for the past couple of years. It's a timeless piece that works on all body types. Here, Jessica plays into an upcoming spring trend: pops of color! Miss Alba chose a Lisa Ho blazer in this wonderful green color. She pairs it with candy-colored Tibi blouse and 70's inspired flares. Amazing. She finishes the outfit off with gold-colored platforms and bracelets. 

Would you rock this blazer?
