Get with the Trends - Spring Neon

Even though a classic outfit is always appreciated, I actually love trends - so long as you don't out wear them and you don't wear them all of the time.  Spring's biggest trend is definitely neon and count me in, I love it.  There's nothing more uplifting than a pop of color, especially in New York where black usually reigns supreme.  I own two pieces in the collage below but have worn pretty much this exact look multiple times and it's only May.  Why two pairs of shoes?  Well - I had to give a wedge option for those petite Professionelles who may own flats but never wear them.

By August, I'm sure I'll never want to see neon yellow and navy stripes again, but I'll enjoy it while it lasts.

The French are Coming!

I promise I will stop with all of the Paris/France related posts, but this news is just too exciting.  Maje and Sandro will open Soho locations in mid-October!  If you can't wait until October, Bloomingdales has already started carrying both lines.

When I was in Paris, it was slightly overwhelming trying to figure out where to shop.  Boutiques were scattered throughout unfamiliar neighborhoods and everything looked to-die-for just because I was on a vacation high.  Taking advice from Camilla, I narrowed in on a few stores.  Maje and Sandro were two of my favorites, along with the Kooples, a store that sells matching clothes for couples (weird concept, super cool and edgy clothes).   My only purchase at the time were these pants from the Kooples (which, attention petite girls, fit me perfectly without alterations), but with the opening of Maje and Sandro in New York, I can buy all of the items I continue to pine for after returning stateside.
