Calm Before the Storm

{J Brand Denim Jacket, J Crew Crochet Top (old), 7ForAllMankind Denim, Shoemint Leopard Booties, Bracelets: Henri Bendel, House of Harlow}

It's hard to believe just a few days ago it was 80 degrees! Winter is back, and we managed to sneak outside for a few minutes to take pictures before it started raining again. It was actually pretty cold and I should have been wearing more layers! I love this different take on a denim jacket; the sleeves and collar are coated denim. And I know I've raved about Shoemint before, but I have found some of my favorite shoes since the site debuted in November 2011. These are no exception, and have been a staple in my closet for about 6 months now. Perfect for a pop of print:)

Xxx, Steph

Uniform

Uniform by banjoeyes featuring distressed skinny jeans

My uniform as of late consists of skinny jeans(distressed, more on those later this week!), a blazer, a simple tee, a killer pair of booties and a few long necklaces. As you can probably tell from my recent outfit posts, I have been gravitating towards black and white combos. Classic! In the next few months as it begins to warm up and I get some color back in my skin, no doubt I will start to wear color again. Until then, here are some more great pieces currently on my black and white wish list.

Xx,

Steph

Printed Shorts All Year Long

All the hype in fall fashion points back to printed trousers, shirts, blouses, dresses and shorts; basically EVERYTHING. My favorite go-to item is a great pair of shorts. They can be dressed up or down with the right accessories and shoes. Although it continues to be extremely warm in SoCal, a great way to transition your shorts into fall is by throwing on a pair of tights or stockings and a cool blazer. The perfect amount of cool and ease.

Brocade Brigade! IFB "Be Uncommon", Get Inspired

As a fit model one of the biggest perks is seeing what will be trending in the upcoming seasons. A recent trend in my fittings is brocade denim. These printed, textured and velvety fabrics are used in high end brands like McQueen and premium denim lines such as J Brand. Have to go to a cocktail party? Throw on a pair of skinny brocade jeans, a slinky tank, heels and plenty of accessories; FAB.

Tan on the Pier

{ Zara Studded Blouse } { J Brand Coated Skinny Jeans } { Jeffrey Campbell Cap Toe Heels via Nasty Gal } { Oliver Peoples Sunnies }

The Monday after the festival weekend, Mike and I wandered Fisherman's Wharf and Ghirardelli Square. The smell of waffle cones was tempting! We discovered Hyde Street Pier, which is the only floating National Park in America. It turned out to be the perfect location for a photo shoot despite the abruptly strong winds. I love the color of these subtly coated J Brand jeans. I've also been loving embellished collars, like this studded Zara blouse. I'm hoping to make my own version. Check back for that DIY post soon! Have a wonderful day~Xx~Steph
