Bringing Sexy Back

Dress with back cutouts This dress is the perfect amount of sexy with a high-neck, ankle length and the lower back cut-outs. It’s a great piece for layering too. You can wear it with a cardigan or a plaid shirt tied around your waist and you can dress it up with some jewelry and sexy shoes. The fabric is very thin so I had to go seek out the perfect underwear. (I think wearing the right kind of underwear with something like this is REALLY important. If your thong pinches your sides or has lace or a bow on it, then it will show and it will look horrible and people will not even notice the dress). Luckily, I found a great line of seamless undergarments at Nordstrom called Commando. They really work great! Every girl needs a pair to go with all of those thin fabric dresses and skirts. I accessorized by layering a few thin gold necklaces and a stack of cute bracelets. I chose a spiked leopard clutch for a little pop.

Rock The Bells

I’ve been obsessing over bell-bottoms lately! When I was in Free People the other day I was so excited that they had a few different styles for me to try on. The first pair I tried on had an elastic waist and more of an exaggerated flare bottom. The second pair were the ones in the photo…the SUPER bell. I was slightly hesitant to get them because of how obnoxious the bell was…but then I realized that I have an obnoxious side…and that side won the battle.

I kept the look basic and bohemian and wore some high heeled wedges and gold jewelry. I threw off the look with a modern, clear clutch with gold studs.

Tea Party Anyone?

This floral printed, cutout dress is so damn cute! I’m not sure what’s gotten into me lately but I’ve recently been gravitating towards feminine and floral things…I guess I’m having a girlie moment. This dress would be perfect for a weekend brunch, baby shower, outdoor wedding or whatever! The fit is great and would be flattering on almost anyone. I thought this red, Celine-inspired handbag would compliment the dress perfectly!

Gisele Bundchen in Anthony Vaccarello

The theme at this years Met Gala was “Punk: Chaos to Couture”. My absolute favorite rendition of this trend would have to be Sarah Jessica Parker with her insane mohawk headdress by Philip Treacy…it was ridiculously amazing and looked perfect with her dress and thigh high boots. I thought Sienna Miller looked elegantly punk with the addition of the spiked leather jacket and I really loved her hair with the spiked headband. I was super into Miley Cyrus’ hair and her fishnet get-up by Marc Jacobs…totally punk! I also thought Gisele did a classy yet sexy version of punk and deserved a little nod. I think more people should have embraced the punk theme though…I mean c’mon Kate Upton…booooorinnnggggg!

Fancy Farmer

Overalls are back!! What goes around always comes back around…true story. These overalls are way more badass than your average Farmer Joe’s however. The fit is updated with a slim fit leg, open back and navy/white striped print. LOVE!
