Spring Forward in Peplum!

Say it with me, "Spring is NIGH!"

In preparation for some rainy days and the warmer weather, a light spring jacket or coat is in order. I prefer to wear a trench coat, although I will also be wearing my PEPLUM jacket from a few seasons ago! I never thought peplum would do a hippy girl justice, but this Ann Taylor LOFT jacket is subtle in its peplum ways and I'm glad I'll get another season out of it.

These were seen on the streets of NYC in late February! For more outerwear inspiration, check out my Pinterest board.

What's your go-to Spring Outerwear? And are you hopping on the peplum band-wagon?

Zac Posen at Neiman Marcus

It was a complete honour for me to cover Zac Posen at Neimans last night, in Boston.  He was there to showcase his Spring 2012 collection recently shown at New York Fashion Week.

Truly a breathtakingly elegant and romantic collection.

Everyone who was there last night was blown away by the glamour of the floor-skimming gowns, the cut, the fit, the detail.  Everything was simply fabulous!  Not to mention how nice it was to meet and talk to Mr. Posen!

Here's a teaser from last night's event.  More to follow!

Cat Eye

Cat eye sunglasses are hot for Spring, but I'm really loving cat eye makeup for during the day and into the night.  So retro and with a bit of nude lip for day and red lip for night...perfecto!

Is this something you would do, ladies?

Now that we've SPRUNG forward one hour it's got me thinking about flowers. What better way to introduce spring into your wardrobe than with florals!

I love the floral clutch and the Erdem dress!  What type of floral has caught your eye for Spring?

Yellow!

What is it about that pop of YELLOW that really makes one think of Spring?

My breakdown?

Spring = Easter = Baby chicks = Baby chick yellow

How's that?

Love this "chick's" effortless look.

Wish list: Prada

I am so in love with Prada's Spring 2011 collection of shoes.  Have you seen these beauties?  I do own a black pair of patent leather Prada flats I bought last summer in Paris, but I've been eyeing these lovelies:
