TGIF! Silver has caught my eye this season. The shine adds a modern and interesting element to outfits that I'm excited to incorporate.
Shiny Silver pieces ...

Day Tux
This black and white bib front dress screams tuxedo to me. I feel very Coco Chanel in this menswear inspired look. But I kept it cool and fun with rolled sleeves and silver loafers.
Black and white is the quintessential sharp color pairing. It's classic. I'm really drawn to bib front tops and dresses for a touch of masculine and interest to my dressing.
The fabric on this shift dress is a textured weave giving it a luxe feel.
For a more dressy look pair with pumps.
And as always - Pop your collar!
Dress: Ann Taylor - On Major Sale! || Loafers: J Crew Similar ||

D'Orsay Flats
Have a seat and get off your feet ...
Strut Worthy!
These chic and comfortable flats are trending and the moment you slide your feet inside you'll know why.
Heels are sexy, but with the gain is pain! These flats have the sophistication of a pump with the exaggerated pointed toe but won't leave you wincing as you walk.
D'Orsay: A pump style shoe in which the sides are cut away, revealing the arch of the foot
These d'orsay flats were a must have for me for their fit and color. My favorite shades for shoes are nudes and metallics. They lengthen the leg (stretching to 5'2" I need all the length I can get) and go with everything! I also love that the toes are completely covered. I have unfortunate feet so any shoe that can flatter and doesn't hurt is a Need!
D'Orsay Flat: Franco Sarto
I'm loving these ...
Shop the above at J Crew

Graphic & Metallic
Mix Your Metallics with a Graphic Print and You've Got a Look of Interest.
Typically You'll Find Your Prints in Tops and Dresses, but Printed Pants are Totally In.
They are a Pop of Cool so You Only want a Pair or Two and May Not Want to Invest Major Dollars for the Amount of Wear.
I scored these on super sale from an in-store online return - Lucky Me!
I Tend to Keep My Focus on my Upper Body -It's my Better Half - but if Kept in a Dark Color Palette and Classic Print I'll Venture to Shift.
These Pants aren't a Pair You'll See Everyday ... Which is Why I Couldn't Resist. The Navy & Radiant Orchid Pattern were Softer in Contrast while still Bold Enough to Command Attention.
I Think that's the Key to Printed Pants. Look for a Color Palette that's Pretty and Complimentary to Your Style and a Print that's Traditional (Florals, Checks, Plaids, and Small Stripes)
Fabulous is a Much Better Look than Funky!
Metallic Anything is Just Simply Marvelous!
It Adds Shine and a Sense of Fancy. And it's a Neutral!!
So Why Not in a Shoe?! Goes with Anything :)
These Penny Loafers take the Menswear Classic to Fancy Feminine.
Confession: I've Even Taken My Love of Gold & Silver Beyond my Wardrobe and into my Home Design with Mirrored Furniture, Lamps and Decor.
I Toned Down this Look with a Denim Shirt and Kept my Jewelry to a Minimum Since I had Enough Shine in my Shoes.
For a More Sophisticated Styling Opt for a Silk Blouse, Blazer and Pumps.
Branch Outside the Box with a Pair of Printed Pants!

Jewel-Toned Silk
Jewel Tones are Rich Saturated Hues Like Those of Emeralds, Sapphires and Rubies.
A Geometric and Floral Print in Luxurious Silk Fabric makes for a Modern, Beautiful Blouse.
I Must Say I'm Quite Proud of Myself. After Year & Years of Wearing Solids on Solids I'm Embracing Prints and Loving it!
Pair with Lighter Neutrals Such as White, Beige, Heather Grey & Tan in Spring/Summer
& Darker Neutrals Such as Navy, Black, Brown and Charcoal Grey in Fall/Winter.
Because there are so many Colors in this Blouse be Careful when Pairing with Colors Found in the Print, Choose Darker Shades to Ground the Look (Green, Blue, Red, Purple)
When Wearing an Intricate Print, Keep Your Jewelry Simple So that the Print is the Focus.
I Chose a Light Heather Grey Suit Skirt for a 'Wear to Work' Look & Added Some Shine with a Fun Pair of Silver Pumps.

Pinot Noir Pairings
Pinot Noir is Warm, Rich, & Elegant.
Pinot Noir Pairs Fabulously with Gal Pals, Dinner, and my Good & Bad Days.
Today it Pairs Fabulously in this Wool Blazer!
The Saturated Burgundy is Complimented Nicely with the Tonal Rose Tipping & Nautical Brass Buttons. Who Doesn't Love a Touch of Pink & Nautical?!!
The Two Shades of Blue in the Shirt & Jeans also Create a Tonal Backdrop making the Colored Blazer the Focal Point.
This Oxford Blue Shirt Shines with it's Sparkle Collar, adding Bling and Eliminating the Need for Jewelry.
This Rhinestone High Collar Calls for Coiffing your Mane in an Updo.
Hairs can get caught in the sparkles causing breakage and ouches!
Rolling the Cuffs of your Jeans can Create a Casual Look & Showcase the Shoes You're Strutting In.
Personally, I Love to Strut in Metallic Pointy Pumps, They Match Everything!!
These particular jeans are too short to wear with heels, by cuffing them I'm able to wear them with any pump, wedge or bootie
So when the dryer shrinks your favorite pair it's not a total loss ...
Roll the cuffs and consider it a Happy Accident :)
I try to Incorporate a Vintage Treasure when Possible. This Bag is a 1960's Original Made in Italy by Bettina.
The Snake Skin Texture, Removable Long Strap and Chanel Inspired Clasp made it a Perfect Addition to my Collection!
