dCc Outfit Obsession: White Delight

I cannot get over how incredibly gorgeous this look is from the streets of Paris. That dress is simply beyond. I would love to recreate this look with this stunning Sophia Kah dress and these Saint Laurent sunnies.

Smitten with Scalloped Shams

I have been on the hunt for the perfect linens for our guest bedroom and have recently become absolutely smitten with crisp scalloped shams. These from Julia B. are absolutely beyond perfection. But, if you are looking for some scalloped shams that are slightly more affordable these and these are fabulous as well!

BeautyCounter

Darlings, I am absolutely delighted to have recently been introduced to BEAUTYCOUNTER, a company with the sole mission of getting better, safer beauty products into the hands of every consumer. I, like many others, have always assumed that everything sold on the shelves in the US is safe. Little did I know that there are many harmful toxins that are put into cosmetics and skincare. Very scary considering this is something you put on your body EVERY. single. day. 
I have been so obsessed with my recent BEAUTYCOUNTER purchases and could not help but spread the word about this incredible new company.

Killer Color Combo

If anyone knows how to unexpectedly delight it's customers with bold styling decisions it's J.CREW. I must say that at their Fall 2015 Presentation last week, I was most intrigued by their genius idea to combine blush with bright yellow to make a killer combination. Thanks yet again, J.CREW. I will certainly be trying this with my own wardrobe this Spring.

Oscar de la Renta Fall 2015: Black Beauties

The Fall 2015 Collection was Peter Coppings debut as creative director for Oscar de la Renta since the late great designer's passing this October. Everyone was on the edge of their runway seat waiting to see what he would produce and the show was nothing short of exquisite. Coppings was careful to honor de la Renta with traditional "Oscar" elements while also infusing his own vision for the brand. I am not sure if it was because I am still mouring the loss of the designer, but I was absolutely captivated by so many of the pieces in this collection in black. From the delicate lace to the luxurious velvet trims, I just could not get enough of these looks.

Perfect Pair: Stubbs & Wootton x Happy Menocal

I could not think of a more fun collaboration - bespoke Stubbs & Wootton monogrammed slippers with Happy Menocal designs. Available exclusively for pre-order on of my favorite e-tailers, Moda Operandi through March 2nd. For those of you unfamiliar with the New York based artist, Happy Menocal you must check out her gorgeous work, I adore her stationery and custom crests. The designs she created for this collaboration are both witty and whimsical. I particularly love these with a tennis theme. Get them while you can!

NYFW Street Style: Fashionably Freezing

It has been absolutely freezing during NYFW. Thus, the trick to staying chic on the streets is all about the coat. These have been some of my favorite street style looks thus far accented by fabulous fur and warm wool. These ladies have me lusting after this coat (Although, with the 70 degree weather here this past week in San Francisco, I don't have anywhere to wear it!)

Pink & White Delight

Around Valentine's Day each year I am often inspired to infuse the uber feminine combination of pink and white into my wardrobe and home. This year to achieve this look, I'd love to be wearing these gorgeous Oscar de la Renta Tassel Earrings while serving brunch with these beautiful linens.

Wild Night

Event planner extraordinaire, Bronson van Wyck, hosted the ultimate birthday bash (or ball should I say) to celebrate his 40th this week. The decadent Bal des Sauvages held in an underground concrete bunker on New York City's 27th Street, was beyond extravagant. Guests showed up in an array of elaborate masks exuding the perfect combination of beauty and beast. Oh, what a wild night.

Vogue City Guides

I was delighted to recently discover Vogue's latest addition to their website, City Guides, which is essentially an insiders look into their address book. It's a fabulous way to get tips and tricks from a multitude of chic curators on cities from L.A. to Shanghai. Before you jet off to your next destination, this is something you should certainly check out.

Classic Calligraphy

There is something so simply striking about a wedding invitation done in classic calligraphy. I recently came across this gorgeous one done by one of my favorite calligraphers, Stephanie Fishwick. For those of you who are not planning a wedding, she also creates gorgeous custom return address stamps! I just cannot get enough.

Backstage @ Elie Saab Couture

Every season, without a doubt, I am in absolute awe of the Elie Saab Couture Collection. Thus, I was delighted to discover the Elie Saab digital Magazine, 'The Light of Now' and get a backstage look at images from last week's show. The exquisite shots of the intricate detail is simply stunning.

Paris Haute Couture Spring 2015 Street Style
