DENIM ON DENIM

Beverly Hills, CA

You can never have too much of a good thing. Especially if that good thing is denim. Well, I guess that is a BIT of an overstatement. Doubling up on denim can be a tricky beast. Something about it seems to go against everything we've been taught about putting together a proper outfit. I mean, after all, it is called the Canadian tuxedo. So while I admit it is definitely intimidating, if you follow a few basics, you're destined to kill it.

  • Mix it up! Make sure you don't wear denim of the same weight/wash.
  • Go with distressed jeans, shorts or jacket! The easiest way to pull off this look is to add a little wear and tear. Rips are a YES.
  • Dress things up a bit! Elevate the look with statement shoes, like these red bow heels, or add a chic little accessory (or two). Right now my go-to add-on? A colorful neck scarf.

RUFFLED UP

Marina del Rey, CA

The statement top: flirty, fun and fashion-forward, it's the style you need to add to your summer lineup. And while last year it was all about off-the-shoulder shirts, 2017 is shaping up to be a lot more eclectic with ruffles, one-shoulder designs, ribbons, bows and yes, even beaded sleeves. And every retailer from fast fashion to high-end is feeling the statement shirt mania, so no matter how big or small your shopping budget, there are plenty of options out there to choose from. To get you started, today I am wearing this ruffle sleeve, tie-waisted top from SHEIN. It is incredibly affordable (under $20) and between the lavender color and flattering tie-waist design, it's a great place to start.

Another day of sun

Los Angeles, CA

After spending the last few days relaxing with my fam back in New Hampshire, it's back to LA (and back to work) today. It's always a bit tough to make a quick transition between the two coasts, but it's not all bad. Back in California the sun is out and I'm dreaming of my next getaway in this look. Between the rich red hue and puffy sleeves, this off-the-shoulder top is a step above the rest. They look best with high-waisted bottoms and my new white cropped leg jeans from AG Jeans are the perfect pair. I love the edgy step hems. These are the not-so-basic whites you need for summer. Ok now where can I escape to next?
