Virtual Vacation

My apologies for missing yesterday's outfit post but I got sidetracked by one too many mimosas at brunch - can you blame me!? 

But back to your regularly scheduled programming, this outfit is in honor of the 30 degree weather we've been having. I'm SO done with winter and dreaming of taking a vacation to some far-flung beach resort. But since we all probably can't pop on a plane for a whimsical vacation, let's take a virtual vacation to the Dominican Republic and imagine ourselves wearing this color-blocked Roksanda number.

Roksanda top, $358 (was $895)  /  Roksanda pant, $514 (was $1,285)  /  Edie Parker clutch, $1,695  /  Charlotte Olympia mules, $745

HAPPY NEW YEAR

JANUARY 1, 2016

Gucci dress. Gucci shoes. Edie Parker clutch. Ray-Ban sunglasses.

New year, new you! Or at least time to step it up and become the boss ass chick you were meant to be! And what better way to do that then wearing a dress that screams with confidence!

I'm head-over-Louboutins obsessed with Gucci's metallic technicolor designs this season. This dress paraded down the Resort 2016 collection and from the moment I saw it, my heart fell out of my butt. That Alessandro dude is giving me way 2 much life with what he's doing at Gucci.

The rainbow stripe top is everything (check out yesterday's post!) but this dress really is what dreams are made of. And while the dress may be a fantasy, the price tag is a nightmare ($2,600!) so I found a few options just as fun as the Gucci - preppy here, hipster there, and skanky over here.

Even if you usually stick to a monochromatic palette, when designers send not one, two, nor three colors down the runway but 7 at once in a cluster-fuck of ROYGBIV, it's time to resolve to wear the rainbow and not just taste it!

And wearing the rainbow isn't as tricky as you'd think: pair it with metallic shoes, loudly matching bags, and colorful aviators (I'd suggest pink or blue)! But most importantly, smile and have a ton of fun! Bad moods and the colors of the rainbow do not work well together! Happy new year, ladies!
