NYC Inspiration: Bold Brights

Every blogger has his/her inspiration, mine was Holly of decor8.  In 2008, I started my blog as a way to share my stylish finds while living in Denmark.  It was somehow a way for me to reach out and feel connected back home. At the time I could relate to her so well because she was also living abroad in Germany, and like me, she still had one foot back home in the states. Decor8 was and is always filled with the most beautiful images.  How can you not be inspired?

While browsing her post from yesterday I was instantly inspired and had to share these amazing images from James Gulliver Hancock of All The Buildings In New York.

Thank You Holly!  Thank you for being such a kind, warm-hearted and wonderful inspiration for me, and many others I'm sure.

We welcome Miu, with open arms.

I know, I know, my pun humor is sometimes so cheesy it clogs my own arteries. BUT, Miu Miu now has an E-STORE!  Miuccia Prada won my heart many years ago with her outstanding designs and exquisite craftsmanship and still each season it gets even better. Remember last fall.... SWOON!

On Trend: Colorblocking

Spring is here and summer is just around the corner.  This season it's all about COLOR!  A pop here and a pop there.  So put your drab hues back in the closet and live a little!  I promise you it will also lift your mood.  See, I'm not just a fashion expert but a retail "therapist" too!

For the love of Miu Miu

Be still my beating heart. Summer has come and gone, as I've been scrambling to get projects together, moving, working... and a million other things. Yet, I missed the a/w 2010 Miu Miu collection. Can we say I'm a bit behind? As I was waiting to meet my lunch (and shopping date) Kelsi, over at Americana at Brand, this dress jumped off the page of a local shopping guide and into my heart! I had to come home and seek it out online. Just look at these pieces, does fashion get much better than this?
