New to Neon

With a birthday celebration coming up, the perfect birthday girl outfit planning has begun. I'll need the perfect color for my freshly touched-up blonde hair, the perfect makeup that maybe I wouldn't try on any other Saturday night out, the perfect heels to make a statement but still be able to dance the night away and finally the perfect outfit to make me looking "birthday girl hot" but not too "hey, look...it's my birthday." Of course, I happen to have a new neon yellow blouse that may be the perfect solution. After doing a little research, it seems this neon yellow shade it quite popular among...well, the popular. Maybe I'll just have to give it a try. 

Fur-ocious

I refuse to wear real fur...have at it if it's your cup of tea but I'm personally too much of an animal lover for that sort of behavior. But, I'll tell you what I am down for...faux fur vest. In fact, I'll say that I'd be fine with a full fur coat. So comfy...so warm...so fabulous. And frankly, Rachel Zoe might as well be my own personal bible...I believe anything she says/does/wears. So...fur vests it is. 

Gaga Oh La La

Sometimes Gaga is tramping around the city in slabs of meet but sometimes she looks like a lady like she did on this particular day. Bubblegum pink is always a favorite of mine. Add a Chanel bag and Louboutins and this girl is in heaven. For this look: Top, Skirt, Jacket, Gloves, Heels, Purse

Stylin' Sleepwear

It's not often that there is a "Who Wore It Better?" over a garment that us civilians can afford. Pajama pants worn as actual pants are apparently a thing and I plan to take full advantage of this trend. Think ankle pants. Pair them with anything from smoking slippers to t-strap heels. Give them a rock n' roll edge like Jessica Alba or a preppy twist like Michelle Williams. 

Beckham to Back Me Up

My girlfriends may think that I own one too many pairs of high-waisted pants/shorts/etc. and maybe a few too many loose blouses but then I come across this photo of the always lovely Victoria Beckham, and I remember why these are a part of my staple style. Yes, it's not flashy or "sexy" but it's me...and it's Victoria Beckham. Can't argue with that. 

Galloping into Our Wardrobe

When I was shopping a few weeks ago, a mustard blouse with horses all over it jumped out at me. I had to have it. Then, I open up a magazine about a week ago and this honey in the middle was wearing the same shirt. I knew I liked it for a reason. If I can't be a celebrity, I might as well have the same blouse as one. Can I get an amen?

Banish that Boyish Bod

Have a boyish figure? Flat chest...minimal hips...you know, the works? Let me let you in on a little secret. Peplum, girlfriend...peplum. Peplum tops and dresses draw attention to your tiniest waist section and create the illusion of curves with the skirted fabric. It's genius, really. Olivia, above, is no Kim Karashian. But, this peplum top does help give her a little va-va-VIXEN edge. 

Suri's Mama Sans Drama

I'll tell you this...I'm as against divorce as the next hopeless romantic, but let's face it...divorce has never looked better on anyone. Katie Holmes looks sultry and has a little bit of a "man-eater" aura about her. I'm all about these suspenders and have been keeping my eyes peeled for the perfect pair...nothing flashy and as little of a grandpa feel as possible (not an easy task). Note that Katie's rocking the blunt bangs I talked about earlier. She's on it this season.

Gotta Love My Girl Crush

I shouldn't embarrass myself like this but I am just obsessed with this lady. Nicole Richie won my heart over the day I realized she is a peanut-size girl like me (and once she was done being arrested and all that, too). Maybe it's that she once also had a honey blonde bob or maybe it's that she is Lionel Richie's daughter but she is divine. I chose these photos because I'd wear that outfit in a heartbeat. She is like the honey badger...she just does what she wants. I like it. For her necklace, check out her jewelry line, House of Harlow. 

Red, Red Wine

If January Jones does it, I can too. Right? Well, that's what I'm rolling with. Guess there isn't such thing as too much red. Don't go overkill with the rest of your makeup and you're safe to do this look, too.

Forever a Fan

Ok...I know I just confessed my undying affection for both Lady Gaga and Rachel Zoe (and I meant it) but then there is Nicole Richie. She's pint-size...she's blonde (most of the time) and she is diva extraordinaire. I love her bohemian chic ways. I will forever be a fan. Peace, love and Nicole Richie.
