Yes we got a taste of warmth this past weekend…
However as I look out my window to see the dusting of snow, I would like to dedicate this WW to the hope that spring will actually turn up. Soon. Very soon.
Dress – Ted Baker IBERIS Floral printed dress.
Mother Nature – please get over whatever is irking you and get on with spring.
Many thanks,

After a long NY winter where the Polar Vortex introduced itself, it was a very welcome change to finally be enjoying a weekend outside on a deck with some sun. No puffer jackets required!!!!
This weekend look was built around my favourite pants at the moment, the AG Stilts.
I am obsessed with them. They are flattering, comfortable – and I want them in every colour.
The complete look – with open toe wedges Yay for warmer weather.
AG Jeans – in sateen finish. LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Valentino bag with gold hardware
Over the shoulder
NY rooftop fun in the sun
Cross body works also – versatile Valentino 🙂
Love the pleats on this shirt
Furry vests are awesome, always.

Here is to friends, sun and fun!

Taking a bit of a walk on the dark side in all black leather and lace…
All black does not need to be goth, and is prefect for the glorious winter day outside.

The past few VERY chilly days have put me in a fall frame of mind…hence this weeks Wanted Wednesday item.
Skinny, fall coloured 7 For All Mankind jeans.
Love this colour, love this cut, love the high gloss coating!
I can see them from day to night – complimented by either dark or light outfit finishes.
What’s your fall must have piece?
Now to find the perfect shade of lipstick to match…

This week I am lusting over this AMAZE Balmain Jacket!!!
Words can not describe how much I want it – with the $6000 price tag I am not sure my husband will share my affection towards this beautiful fall piece.
Wish me luck….

Maximising whatever is remaining of summer – I am feeling like a romper this Wednesday.
The stripes and cut out = super sexy!
I can see it now with some sandals and gold clutch for those last few summer nights…

Ok, so firstly EPIC FAIL!
Yes this weeks Wanted Wednesday is in fact being posted on Thursday. Sorry about that. Super busy bee this week…
Finally though, here we go.
This weeks Wanted Wednesday is this smokin’ pair of Helmut Lang leather pants.
Because honestly – who out there wouldn’t want these flattering, cropped, tight fitting, HOT pants that cost only a weeks rent??? No really – who??
Hope to see you in your leather.

Romance is not dead – nor should it be.
Just take a look around Central Park. The couple on a picnic, the first date happening at the Boat House, the husband rowing his wife under the Bow Bridge.
Diane von Furstenberg coral creation adds its own romantic touch to this city escape.
The cut, colour, flowing fabric, the detail of the subtle pleating.
Dress – Diane von Furstenberg Autumn in Hot Spice
Shoes – Christian Louboutin Papilipi
Flower Ring – Peep Toe (similar here)
Lipstick – CHANEL Coco Rouge in 09 Organdi Rose
Nail Polish – Essie in Haute As Hello

May your life be filled with romance and love.

Summertime should not preclude you from wearing black.
Au contraire – you just need to make it feel more summery with some florals, or a splash of colour!
My favourite colour this season has to be anything in the coral family. I am finding myself drawn to anything coral spotted on the rack.
So pretty and feminine.
So here is my version of a summertime “black” outfit.
Love this Alex Perry top with a beautiful big floral pattern, an interesting vest-like shape at the top and flattering pleats.
Loving the hair donut!!
So quick, easy and elegant.
Nail colour by Essie – Haute As Hello
The detail on this bag is gorgeous – from the multi coloured panels, to the DVF kiss!
Floral top – Alex Perry
Skirt – Loft
Shoes – Christian Louboutin En Passant
Bag – DVF
Nail Polish – Haute As Hello by Essie
Hair donut – here
Enjoying my summer – hope you are too!

Forget the LBD (ok jokes) – but, what about the LITTLE BLACK SHORTS?
I love them in spring, I love them in summer.
I love them casual, i love them dressy.
I love them on The Hart Of Dixie and the resulting disruption they cause to the town of Bluebell.
This past Sunday, I channeled my inner Zoe Hart and took my favourite little black shorts out to Brooklyn.
Teamed up with a summery colour blocked tank – and my new Manolo Blahniks (their first excursion!!)
Brooklyn Bridget Park – view of Manhattan Bridge
Brooklyn Bridget Park – view of Brooklyn Bridge & lower Manhattan
Colour block top (similar here)
Shorts – Loft (similar here)
Pumps – Manolo Blahnik Kandita-Mod Sandal
While some perceive them to be casual, I disagree and believe you can make the little black short a dressy statement.
Bring out the legs for summer.
