You know how the Greek flag has stripes on it? I gravitated towards that but switched up the colour.

Greece: What to Pack
Going to Greece? Here's some help on what to pack!
Greece: Mykonos, Cobalt
When you think of Greece, don't you immediately think white and blue? I do, and did.
I paired a cobalt maxi skirt (that had some mirror-work) with a white cowl neck T-shirt for a night on the town. More bright hues for the Spring and into Summer.
Greece: Mykonos: Stripes
As seen in Mykonos. I love the simple black flats with the striped dress and the brown bag.
Other summer stripe inspiration on my Pinterest, here!
Greece: Acropolis: Flowers
Greece: Acropolis: The Parasol
As seen, here.
Greece: Athens, The Acropolis, Hat
I thought this little girl was adorably dressed for the BLAZING HEAT! There was literally NO SHADE to hide under over the entire spanse of the Acropolis. I didn't have my trusty straw fedora with me on this trip, like I did in Paris.
In the heat a hat is a smart idea.
Here's more summer hat inspiration on my Pinterest.
Greece: Athens, Shift Dress + Happy Spring!
I'm digging her bright yet simple shift dress. As seen from across the Acropolis, Athens.
This has me thinking about buying something as simple, modern and timeless as the shift dress.
More inspiration, here, in Spring's hottest trends:
Yellow, Florals, Colourblock, Stripes
Happy First Day of Spring!
Greece: Red Pants
It's time to move on to GREECE! Spring's here and it's feeling like Summer, so it's time to break out the cottons and linens and dream about tropical vacations, sandy beaches, and crystal blue waters.
This man has red pants AND red shoes.
What sunny destination are you dreaming of today?
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?
NYC: Over the Knee
Now that the weather's so warm, I'm thankful to be able to put away my boots. Although I have to say I'm really thankful to not have even had to bring out my SNOW boots!
What do you think of the over-the-knee boot and thigh-high boot trend? Are we ready to put them away forever?
As seen in Soho. Also in Soho, Bread.
NYC: Fur Hats
These ladies wore their faux fur hats really well and although I purchased a trapper hunter's hat while in NYC, it wasn't quite so luxurious.
What are your thoughts on fur hats? Real or Faux?
New York Fashion Week: Prete & Bruno
Prete & Bruno was my final NYFW show, and one where I wasn't in the pit, which was a nice change. The Trendy Dwarf and I had a great vantage point of the whole collection. I absolutely loved all the black, golds and greens. One couldn't tell by it's flawless execution, what trouble they had in putting on the show. Everything was classic and elegant, right up to the beautiful chignons created by Vince Smith. And those shoes.
To round up New York Fashion Week, for me, in one word: exhilarating.
Looking forward to next season!
New York Fashion Week: SEEN: Shenae Grimes
"It's the girl from 90210!" A lot of people I overheard didn't know her name, and I'm not going to lie, nor did I, but I recognized her and she was smiling and having a great time. Even posed with fans for photos.
New York Fashion Week: SEEN: Coco Rocha
If seeing Brad, Rachel, Garance and the Sartorialist wasn't enough, Coco Rocha walked by!
