Good morning everyone!  What do you think of surf and sea foam together?  I personally love the color combo.

I’m excited about the photo shoot this Tuesday with my next Fashion Inspiration Feature: Adrienne Connely.  Please feel free to contact me via email, Facebook or twitter before the next shoot to tell me what you’d like to see more of.  I’m glad that we’ll finally be shooting the Bijoutiere jewelry that was sent to me last week from Donna Guidry and Mary Irwin in Los Angeles, California.  I’m going to try and include the jewelry in all of the outfits in the upcoming shoot.

P.S. Look what arrived at Park Lane this week:

The Dee Keller LeLe

 Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Good Morning everyone!! What do you think of J.R. Garret?

 I thought it would be fun to incorporate a little bit of male fashion into my blog every so often just for a little change up.   J.R. actually suggested the idea to me,  and he willingly volunteered to be my first Male Fashion Feature.  I have to say he did an amazing job, and I was very entertained by his interview.  He even used the same pair of jeans in every outfit to show the versatility of a classic pair of dark jeans.

 Let me know what you think of my first male fashion feature by “liking” this post using the Facebook Like button.

P.S. Congratulations to my Fashion Inspiration Feature and friend, Gretchen Barnes, who will be strutting the runway in Amanda DeLeon, Jolie and Sarah, Kelli Cooper and Julie Wheat during NOLA Fashion Week!

Have a great Friday!

My Current Wish List…

March 1, 2012

Row 1: tan wedges (Dolce Vita), teal suede pumps (Steve Madden), melon suede wedges (Dolce Vita)

Row 2: purple skirt w/ peplum (Alice and Olivia), pink denim (DL1961),  Minnie cropped pants (J. crew),

turquoise denim (DL1961)

Row 3: all three pairs of these shorts are from J. Crew

Row 4: sea foam high/low dress (LOVE), pleated jumpsuit (ASOS), pastel pleated dress (ERIN)

Hello everyone!  These are all of the items I’m currently loving.  I would tell you which one of these items is my favorite, but I can’t even decide!!  If I really had to choose it would be between the melon Dolce Vita wedges and the sea foam high low dress.  I just love both of those colors!  Although, I also really like the peplum skirt!  A peplum adds so much flare to an outfit! What is on your current wish list?

P.S.  I’m currently trying to figure out how to add a Pin It button to my share bar, but I haven’t quite figured out how just yet.  Please let me know if you have any tips!

Have a wonderful day!
