An Unexpected Mix....

I'm kinda loving the mix of leopard print with polka dots.  I may just have to put together an outfit like this soon.

What's Your GILTy Secret?

One of the very first posts on my blog was about my GILTy pleasure, here.  Since then the gilt.com site has had alot of press and needless to say has become way more popular.  Its not very often that I make a purchase but today was a Tucker sale and the skirt below, that I have had my eye on for quite sometime, was going to be on sale.  So I was at my computer at 10:59 and when the sale started at 11:00 sharp I clicked to get on the site, scrolled to the skirt, and it was already "In Members Cart" status!  I couldn't believe it, the sale just started.  So needless to say I didn't get the skirt, which in the long run there will ALWAYS be something to buy.  But I must know, are there any of you out there that shop on Gilt regularly?  Do you have any tips for getting that one item you want before the dreaded "Sold out" logo?

Ebony, Ivory, Living in Perfect Harmony.....

I just had to post this when I saw it today on Decor Pad.  Who knew that black could be so chic in a bedroom?  This room reminds me of a bachelor's bedroom on its best day.  I don't know that I would ever paint the walls of a room black but if I were going to this room would be great inspiration as a starting point. 

Wow that was Fast....

So last time I blogged I was on the fence about the more dressy wide leg version of the jumpsuit.  Well, I took my own advice and tried one on over the weekend. Not only was it comfortable, it was super cute, and it had pockets!  I did a quick price check and at $15.50 I was SOLD!!!  I wanted to post this as an actual outfit post but I didn't make it home in time to takes pictures while there was still daylight.  So I took some quick pics on my trusty mirror and here she is.  I can wear it during the day with a casual jacket and flats or remove the jacket and add some heels for a night on the town.  I hope you all had a great weekend.

The Jumpsuit....

For those of you that regularly follow my blog you know that I am super excited about the return of 70s style.  The high waist pants, the flowy bell sleeve tops, the platforms, all of it!  There is one trend that I am on the fence about, the jumpsuit. Now I do own a jumpsuit that I wore here, however there are also dressy fuller leg version which I love the idea of, but once on body am not sure about.  Now I haven't tried one on so I will take my own advice about trying things on before I judge.  But I'm curious to know, what's your take on the jumpsuit?

You Can Stop By Anytime.....

And take pictures of my wardrobe if it means that my stuff will look this good!  If you haven't already made your way over to the Coveteur to drool over all the pretty clothing and accessories,  this is your assignment for the week and is a must!  Its a genius idea, a collection of gorgeous photographs with the subjects being the items from some of the wardrobes of the leaders in fashion staged in the most artful way.  Its so inspiring.

A Lotta Ruffle.....

I've never considered myself a "loyal" follower of any particular designer, however when it comes to Rebecca Taylor I just can't get enough.  I love all of her cute effortless styles and the fun prints, where do I start?  I bought this dress several months ago now and haven't had a change to wear it since it is made out of silk and silk and the cold don't really mix.  I dressed it down with my boots that I have been living in lately, but would definitely pair this with some saucy heels for a night on the town.  Hmmm, now that I am typing this I should have totally done a day to night post....ugh....maybe next time.
