Let The Feathers Fly!

{ Via: Moda Operandi }

Now that I have your attention......two of the hottest trends at the grammy's were feathers and the color red. Did you see diva Dianna Ross resplendent in red? She sang and reached out and touched...me. How about you? On the red carpet some fabulous feathers flew and inspired this post.  I have actually always loved feathered fashion, and have a few special pieces. This Spring just may be the time to add to my mini collection. Scroll down to see what I found for all of us.

What To Wear Wednesday: The Office Holiday Party

The office Holiday party can be tricky. It's hard for employees, bosses, and spouses alike. Your mode of dress depends on the location of the event. If it is in the office, your normal work clothing is probably fine. Parties in fine restaurants or hotels call for a dressed up look. Invited to the bosses home? Your look certainly should be dressy or cocktail, but probably not formalwear.  In all cases, leave your "sexy" at home, be festive but appropriate. You want to stand out for your performance on the job not on your dress at the party. Get inspired with this selection of.......

Gifts For The Fashion Forward Girl

Fall For Fringe

(Via Stephanie Fishwick)

I am loving Fall's "fringe benefits in fashion." In fact, I have always loved fringe, and have a few good but old pieces in my closet - a vintage Chanel bag, great Armani trousers, and a silk dress with fringe. If you do, too, it's time to take them out! Fringe adds instant flair and flirtiness to any outfit. It also nods towards Western, but I shy away from the cowgirl look.  For 2014, fringe takes on a global chic vibe.  In my hunt for all things fringed and fabulous, I found many good pieces, and the edit was not easy. The most wonderful fringed finds were also the most expensive.  I tried, folks. So let's think investment pieces!

My Fringed Finds For Fall

A statement take on Fall's Western trend. Handcrafted in Italy and very pricey, but I think, fabulous!
