Springs Shoe Trend: ColorBlock Shoes

This Springs "it" shoe trend is the tri-tone shoe. It's all about the ongoing colorblocking trend and its an easy way to pack some punch into your Spring wardrobe without be to daring with your clothing! I especially love the gray and nude tones with a bright yellow or red. How to wear this trend: Just wear one of the colors in the shoe – or wear solid neutrals – either way, you can’t go wrong with these fun shoes.

Spring's Hot Color: MINT

This soft pastel was always a favorite color of mine in the Spring/Summer months. I love how it looks with neutral tones like nude and gray. A different take then all those brights we are normally used to seeing around the S/S seasons. It really is flattering on every skin tone and hair color so you can wear it with your subtle Spring glow all the way to your rich deep Summer San Tropez glow!

Spring Pretty Pretty PLEATS!

This is the big trend for this Spring season-PLEATS-I love its airiness and femininity! For a great spring look, wear a pleated mini or maxi skirt with a loose fitting T-shirt or blouse, tucked in. Add a pair of chunky heels or sandals to top off your boho-chic look. You can accessorize any way you’d like with this look – wearing long necklaces layered together or a chunky necklace with some bangles. Both options would be great ways to polish off your hot new look. The pleated tops could be work with adorable cut offs to soften the look or some great linen pant!
Heres my stylish pleat picks!

Look For Less: Rachel Zoe Chanel Tweed Jacket

Rachel Zoe a NJ native, fashion stylist to the stars, and a major style icon-I would explain her style as very 70's glam with a hint of boho chic. Her known fashion staples are oversized sunnies, bell bottom jeans, and Chanel tweed jackets. She's shown a new way to wear the tweed jacket which was once considered "office wear" in a stylish modern way! She pairs it up with bell bottom jeans and a simple white tee under the jacket. Styling Tip: I Would suggest having the tee longer so it peeks out of the jacket, it actually elongates the body and looks so much more stylish! Get her look for less with this chic tweed jacket atThe Sassy Shop Girl for $75

A few days before Winter and I'm seriously already moving onto Spring season! This past NYFW the hot Spring 2012 color is Tango Tangerine! More about Tangerine Tango, it's a spirited reddish orange, It's sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.” I cannot wait to wear this color in my wardrobe...whether it be a scarf, sandals, purse or jewelry.

My Beauty Fix Of The Day: Revlon ColorStay Lipglaze in Overtime Wine

This fall season it's all about burgundy so I needed to update my makeup drawer with a new lip color! I was on the hunt for the perfect burgundy lip color and found Revlon's line of Colorstay Lipglaze. What I love about it is you still get the great shine of a lipgloss but you also get some great pigmented color which you would normally only find in a lipstick. The color is an absolute perfect shade of burgundy and looks stunning-not to overpowering yet makes a statement and would work beautifully on light and olive skin tones. I wear it with bronze metallic eyeshadow and it looks fab!

Trend Therapist's Fall Favorites!

Sorry for my lack of posting these last few months but I'm proud to say I'm having my first baby-its a boy.. Matteo James! Im due in 19 days (10/10) so of course I've been busy getting everything ready for my little heart breaker! I promise I will start writing a lot more once I get our routine down!

I'm so excited for all the fashion this fall season! I'm totally revamping my wardrobe since I'll be out of maternity wear to fit the trends for this season. I've been scooping out the stylish celebs, runways, and fashion news to bring you my fall favorites! The hot "it" color is burgundy! More seductive and just as powerful as red you can wear it in many ways-bags, shoes, clothing, lips and nails!

The makeup trend is metallic! Metallic eyeshadows are everywhere and when applied properly you'll finish with a sultry, smudgy, glamorous eye that will sure turn heads!

This season's shoe style is a chunky heeled bootie. I love the versatility of this style because it looks great with tights, skinny jeans, wide leg jeans and sweater dresses.

The popular print of the season is polka-dots! A hint of this trend is all you need whether it be on your chic daytime flats, a scarf, purse, or hosiery. There's so many ways to implement this stylish print into your wardrobe.
