On October 13, 2016 Le Diner En Blanc Orlando arrived. After a month of planning and prepping, it was an amazing dreamy night wrapped in white. A beautiful diversity of people attended, wonderful event organizers, a perfect secret venue, extraordinary entertainment, and all around gorgeous evening. Magnifique!
I’m already planning for next year!
If you wonder what Diner En Blanc is, Google it. LOL.

Ok, some of us aren’t looking forward to Fall with Winter being the end point. However, there are some that look to relief in the skies. Maybe not true Fall weather, but the hopes of temps tumbling out of the 90’s would be nice.
Cute shorts, bright and kick-ass booties, along with a athleisure bomber jacket and the line starts to blur which is about to be crossed into Autumn…or some sense of it. The choice of a bright orange-red with a background bass of black, keeps it light but hopeful. The fun and funky accessories keep it interesting.

I adore this belted denim shirtdress by Michael Kors. With some interesting and neutral accessories, you can wear this a myriad of ways by mixing up pieces like those below. Here are a few ideas.
I kept the palette clean to interchange, but you can easily add any colors and styles you prefer.
Look 1: Wear the shirtdress by itself. Add the bag, sandals, a necklace, roll up the sleeves and add the bangles.
Look 2: Wear the shirtdress as a duster. Dress in a top and the skirt, add accessories. Top off the look with the unbuttoned shirtdress, and enjoy the flow of the duster jacket.
Look 3: Wear a tank and jeans, put on shirtdress and only button 2 buttons at the waist. Wrap the belt around the shirtdress, blouse it out, pop the collar, roll the sleeves up and add accessories.
Look 4: Wear the top and shorts, put on the shirtdress. Button up a few buttons from the waist up, then take the front shirt tails and tie in front (over hips). Leave the back fall. Accessorize. I would love this look with a pair of low Converse.
Change this up with your favorite accessories, this is just a guideline. Have at it!

When you want to look cute and cool, chambray and white will always do the trick. The off-the-shoulder top is a top trend, worn with the pleated high-waisted striped short trimmed in lace is a perfect pairing for Boho chic. Accessories are key and these finish it off right. Add a pink and yellow floral crown or a floppy hat and you’re Coachella ready. Don’t forget the sunblock!

These Casadei heels have my name all over them. Black base, black and white combo, Greek key design, hints of fuchsia and red, and a tassel on the back for an extra hit of BOOMSHAKALAKA!
“Sittin’ down shoes”? Maybe. OR struttin’ round town shoes. Whatever works for you 😉

In a time where “Street style” rules, we’ve given up the matchy-matchy game. We’re told, don’t match everything, you won’t look cool. Ha! Wear what you want. Remember when dressing up used to be fun? Now everyone is so freakingly neurotic, worried about opinions of people who don’t matter. Anyway, this used to be the norm of dressing…well, maybe a little extremely matchy, but big deal!
Pick a color scheme and stick with it! Have fun and eat a chocolate bunny for me 🙂

Spring fresh on a Monday because if you look good, you feel good. Especially due to the time change over the weekend, it messes with your mood! Well, what is more fresh and happy than light blue and white stripes?! An off-the-shoulder detail and smooth pencil skirt, give you a sweet combination of ladylike hotness. Mocha colored pumps, a detailed metal bag and earrings, light colored shades, and pops of pink beauty add a classic, high-end look.
Sashay your way in to Monday.

Oh Olivier, you are a freaking master of detail. Detail is the main reason I fall for Balmain every season. Fall/Winter 2016 came correct bringing the heart palpitations! The rose quartz pallette entranced me.
Of course, the black and gold stoled my heart. Just look at the scrumptiousness of it all!
The entire collection was dramatic and feminine, and the structure of many of the short skirts emphasized a small waist and accentuated the hips and derriere. Hmmm…..who does that silhouette remind you of? 😉 Ladies, get your tech necks in shape. High necks and big chokers are what’s up and I love it. Nonetheless, or more, Olivier Rousteing and the Balmain FW16 designs were amazing, per usual.
