Wayfarer

(Sunglasses - Ray-Ban, Jacket - Topshop, Nano Bag - Celine, Denim - AG, Heels - Saint Laurent)

I recently teamed up with Sunglass Hut and Ray-Ban to put a pair of their new leather wayfarers to the test. Thinking back, my very first Ray-Ban purchase was a pair of turquoise wayfarers during my senior year of high school. Since then, I've collected another five pairs ranging from their aviators to one of my most recent purchases, the clubmaster. Needless to say, test running this classic style in leather was a no-brainer. This style adds an effortless feel to any look and that's what I love about them the most. A perfect gift for the holidays. 

Eleven Thirteen

The Legging Ankle Contour 360 - AG, Pumps - Tom Ford)

Partnered with InStyle Magazine and AG to style a few pieces from their holiday collection. Went with the Carli jacket which is so second skin-like that I opted to wear it as a top. Went up one size so I have the option of layering if need be. Styled with their signature skinny denim that's the perfect ankle grabbing length. Kept things monochromatic and topped off appropriately. xo

Chase

(Sunglasses - Chanel, Deep V-neck Tee - Cotton On, Denim - AG, Boots - Chanel)

Recently partnered with Aussie label, Cotton On, to style a tee from The ONE collection which launches on May 20th. Being a huge lover of v-necks, (the deeper, the better) I naturally gravitated towards this style that I now own in all three colors. They carry plethora of quality basics at pretty reasonable prices. Styled The ONE tee with boyfriend denim topped off with statement boots.

Tgif! xo

Trench

(Sunglasses - Chanel, Trench Coat - Alexander Wang, Clutch - Givenchy, 

Denim - AG, Sandals - Saint Laurent)

This cutaway trench from Alexander Wang is MAJOR. Innovative yet still maintaining the silhouette of a classic trench — a true gem that I was able to get my hands on thanks to Moda Operandi's trunk show last year. All about the button-downs unbuttoned up to the solar plexus this season. I generally do quite the opposite, hehe, so it's a refreshing change. xo

Four One

(Sunglasses - Balmain, Tee - AG, Belt - Saint Laurent, Blazer - Joie, Bag - Saint Laurent,
CDC Bracelet - Hermes, Derby Shoes - Saint Laurent)

A major sale score from Ssense — these derby shoes that have almost converted me to a full-time loafer girl. Comfortable, practical, and at sixty-five percent off? I think so. Being a big foot has its perks at times. Wearing them with all recycled basic business. 

DVF

(Sunglasses - Balmain, Theodora Leather Jacket - DVF, Tank - Oak, Belt - Saint Laurent,
Sutra Mini Bag - DVF, Denim - AG, Rowan Heels - DVF)

I recently teamed up with DVF to style two looks from her spring 2014 collection. For look one, I chose this white leather moto jacket with the most perfect gold detailing (very rare to find on a leather jacket). Added a pop of leopard with the Sutra mini which gives off a cool edge. Maintained the gold detailing throughout with sunglasses and a studded belt. Completed the look with ankle strapped Rowan heels. Stay tuned for part two of our collaboration.

Enjoy your Monday! xo

Mape

(Sunglasses - Celine, Tank - T By Alexander Wang, Mape Leather Jacket - Acne, Denim - AG,
Bag - Givenchy, Pumps - Jimmy Choo)

Somebody call the fashion police because I absolutely cannot get enough of a good tee and denim combo! Will forever be my go-to uniform when nothing else makes sense. There's nothing that layers better with this classic mape jacket from Acne, which I scored on a major sale over the holiday. I'll always find an excuse and this post is no exception. You should really make that call. 

Enjoy your Monday!

Twelve Sixteen

(Sunglasses - Celine, Sweater - Stella McCartney, Nano Bag - Celine, Cords - AG,
Belt - Isabel Marant, Pumps - Jimmy Choo)

One of my best scores during sale season, this sweater from Stella McCartney. Plaid fuzzy perfection. Had been coveting the longer v-neck version but couldn't pass up on this one because the ticket price was too good. A majority of the items that I lust over never make it to sale, but this season, has been quite the opposite. Made an Isabel Marant sweater mine for fifty percent off that I couldn't even score at full price. A lucky find indeed. 

Eleven Twenty-Nine

(Fedora - Rag & Bone, Sunglasses - Ray-Ban, Sweater - Reformation, Belt - Isabel Marant,
Velo Bag - Balenciaga, Denim - AG, Deckhand Flats - Reef)

I recently teamed up with Reef to put a pair of their shoes to the test. I have a friend who swears by their Deckhand flats, so I figured I'd give them a go to see what all the hype was about. The insides are made with a mattress inspired foam which literally feels like you're walking on marshmallows. Great for those days when my feet need a break or that mid-day switch out with my four inch heels. A perfect addition to my collection of flats. 

Eleven Twenty

(Sunglasses - Saint Laurent, Sweater - Reformation, Bag - Chanel, Coat - Zara, Denim - AG,
Shoes - Celine)

The weather was much colder than forecasted in Beijing, and no complaints because that forced me to pick up this coat that I'd been coveting from Zara. Highly recommend. It's hand made and one of the best coats that I've purchased in quite some time. On our way to Beijing, we missed our connection in San Francisco, so we checked into a hotel and hung out for a day waiting for the next departure. Nothing that a little therapy shopping couldn't fix. Thanks to Chanel SF for setting me up with this new gem. Cross body perfection.

Ten Seventeen

(Sunglasses - Celine, Hidden Placket Blouse - AG, Bag - Saint Laurent, Belt - Isabel Marant,
Beau Denim - AG, Pumps - Jimmy Choo)

I recently teamed up with Who What Wear and AG to style a look from AG's fall collection. Being a huge fan of the Beau fit, I thought I'd give their thrasher wash a go since I already own this style in corduroy. This hidden placket blouse was a no-brainer because the above is my go-to uniform of choice at least three days a week. Topped off with all black accessories for a very reliable classic look.

Enjoy your Thursday!

Basics

(Sunglasses - Ray-Ban, Scoop Neck Henley - AG, Belt - Isabel Marant, Beau Cords - AG,
Bag - Saint Laurent, Pumps - Jimmy Choo)

I teamed up with AG to put some of their chic basics to the test from their fall 2013 collection. I chose their scoop neck henley and beau cords because they're classic pieces with a modern sensibility. This collection was inspired by the streets of New York City in the 1980's with a hint of modern military aesthetic. High quality timeless basics are definitely my thing and AG delivers just.

Enjoy your Tuesday!
