A nice, easy look for the spring is the White Shirt dress. If executed correctly, it can look very crisp and classy. Check out people like Taylor Swift, Rihanna and my fashion icon Solonge Knowles in their crisp, white threads!
Here is my take on the look.
Top: The Gap
Boots: Michael Antonio
The mesh trend is very big this spring/summer. Everything from shirts, skirts, dresses, pants and shoes will have a mesh panel. I recently bought a pair of mesh booties on Shoedazzle for $19.95. They’re so comfortable and the price was awesome!
Brian Atwood has a pair of mesh booties from his Spring 2013 collection. His version, Michelet, retails between $199 and $275.
Michelet is more defined with a more exposed mesh while the shoedazzle version is just as sleek but has a faux leather heel. Which do you prefer?
I mean… Beyonce is cool and all BUT everyone knows the real fashion icon and style holder begins and ends with Solange Knowles. This is Solange a little over 2 years ago. Loved her then, love her more now! In honor of Throw Back Thursday, let’s look at Solange getting better with time, like FINE WINE!

H&M is releasing their “Conscious Exclusive Collection” tomorrow and it is amazing! The higher end of this collection was so well executed. Some of the pieces look more like art than clothing! The entire collection is right on trend the the embroidered pieces to the wide-leg pants. It definitely isn’t the typical H&M price point, but with the “more sustainable fashion” tag line, you can understand why. Prices range from $12.49 to $549. Check out some of my must haves from this collection!

At Saturday’s JustFab Shoes Brunch, I won a gift card for a pair of new shoes! Shoes are the way to my heart! I quickly went on the site to make my purchase. Unfortunately, the shoes that I wanted were sold out in my size *sobs loudly* Fortunately for me, there were tons of shoes for me to fall in love with. Take a look at the shoes I picked! I picked shoes that are timeless. These single sole sandals go with any and everything. Thank you Patryce for such an amazing event AND my new shoes!
