The Lust List- April 2015

Happy Friday!

I hope you are having a great week. This past week has been so busy but fun. I was in Nashville, TN and Charlottesville, VA for work and today Ariyana and I are traveling to Boston to spend the weekend with my sister and to celebrate my upcoming birthday with my closest girlfriends. 

I also wanted to give you a little update as well.  The past few months I have not been blogging quite as much and there is a reason for my absense.  Many of you know I also have a Doctorate in Pharmacy and I worked in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology world for many years. But over the past few years I took a break and have been styling clients full time, doing on-air TV style segments, and blogging. Well in January I was given an amazing opportunity I just couldn't pass up and I started work as a Medical Liaison/Consultant with a company that focuses on facial aesthetics. I spend a lot of time interacting with facial plastic surgeons and cosmetic dermatologists and it is so fun to be able to combine my passion of science and beauty in this new role along with my passion for fashion as a stylist. I am still taking on personal styling clients and with the help of my contributor Faith Pierce I am still blogging! So yes things are incredibly busy to say the least but it is all so fun and exciting. 

Today Faith is sharing her April lust list but I have to say I love all these items and they would all be on my list as well. What's on your Spring lust list?

This time of year classic pattern mixing, simple jewelry, and clean white manicures are in the forefront of my mind. As warmer weather approaches anything that feels fresh, light, and simplistic is exactly what I am looking for. Check out the products above and the links below for some of the items on my current wish-list!

Nordstrom Clearance Sale

Happy Valentine's Day!

Have you stopped by the clearance sale at Nordstrom? The sale is REALLY good and it only goes on until February 22nd so be sure to check it out!  I just picked up these three cardigans on sale and they are so cozy and flattering. My casual weekday and weekend wear typically consists of leggings or legging jeans and these longer cardigans pair up nicely and cover in all the right places. Layer them over a silky blouse or simple t-shirt and add a pair of ankle boots or tall boots for a great chic and casual look.

The Non-Sequined New Years Outfit

For the past few years I’ve sported full blown sequined numbers on New Years. While they are loads of fun, I’ve decided this year to look for something a bit different and unique. Aside from the major shedding sequins do as you dance the night away, I wanted to have an outfit that other’s may not. I’m absolutely loving the darker gold tones of this Tibi full skirt (my obsession as of late) and to keep things fun for a nighttime event I paired it with a crop top. Showing just a sliver of skin is perfect for a big night out (without freezing)! Since it is New Years I added a bit of sparkly jewelry and an ostrich feather bag. 

What are you planning to wear on NYE? Are you sticking with sequins or looking for something a bit different?

Holiday Party Outfit Inspiration

With the holiday season in full gear, one of the top things on my mind is what to wear to all of the holiday events I have coming up! Especially the work related ones. The look above is my absolute go-to for the season. Lots of rose gold metallics, a creamy (and soft) knit dressed up with a gorgeous full skirt, and pops of emerald. I think the best way to finish off your makeup look is with a vampy lip. This keeps everything fresh and looking too “red and green”. Below are some of my other favorite picks for the season. I’m especially loving the black dress with ostrich feathers and the striped skirt paired with either the red turtleneck or black sequined top!
