Suede Colorblock Heels

Who doesn't need a pair of fabulous party heels? Colorblocking is a great way to make an entrance and these shoes, well they need no introduction.


Kohl's, Salas Platform Heels, $59
Sometimes a suede platform can feel clunky but the mix of colors here make it seem less weighed down.

OK I don't think I could walk in these, but worn appropriately, I would respect any woman who could. This heel is like a work of art!

Steve Madden, Cathi Heels, $89
Just so amazing. I can't even say. 

Dolce Vita, Suede Colorblock Pumps, $89
If you ever wear these, you must tell your significant other "you're welcome" from me.

Are you in love like I am? These punchy heels are just perfect for the weekend.

Be fabulous today!

Grape to Meet You

Another color I'm crushing on lately happens to be my favorite color. Purple. But this shade in particular is huge right now, grape. A juicy, deep purple that is so lush you just have to put it on.

This blouse is so interesting and unexpected from Gap. I'd pull my hair up and add some bigger earrings.

Kate Spade, Crystal Cort Drop Earrings, $68
Oh now these I would wear with everything. LBD, jeans, you name it.

This is a little mix of Birkin and Kors, but the price is just right.

This oversized sweater is perfect for the weekend, and the cashmere blend is so cozy!

What is your favorite color to wear this winter? Are you going neon or staying with the deep reds and purples?

Be fabulous today!

It's getting frigid in DC and sometimes the cold weather depresses my wardrobe too. But a go to perk up for any outfit is a great, punchy blue. Nothing crazy, but a staple piece that is easy to add to any outfit.

Tinley Road, Bloussant Dress, $69
Well hello color block perfection aren't you a beauty?


So light and classy, perfect for a statement earring.

Lands End Canvas, Cotton Cashmere Cardigan, $24
You guys, the price on this, go buy it now! I love it!

Perfect for layering under a sweater of with jeans on the weekend.

How do you spice up your wardrobe on chilly winter days? Any pattern or color you go to?
