Faux Fabulous!

Its hard to believe this is the last blog post of 2016!!
 The year went by so fast!! 
This blog has been a fun creative outlet for me this year! 
I've enjoyed playing around with different looks and makeup for photography. 
I also love sharing style with all of you! 
Part of this long winter is switching up a puffer coat or wool coat for a faux one!
Faux is great for a New Years Eve Party or for Valentines day!
The texture and print give you that sparkle of movie star to any night out.
Its easy to wash and store too which is such a plus!
We all have those garments that need a cedar closet to keep moths away. 
Storing clothes can become too high maintenance after a while.
Luckily with faux theres no need to worry about that!
This is a vintage gem I found thrifting.
It has a gorgeous retro red lining which is so fun!
This gorgeous chub coat looks good with jeans too!
With jeans I take this look from movie star to rock star.
For this look book I wanted to show the coat in a more glamorous style.
Enjoy, and have a fun,healthy, and Happy New Year!

Retro Flare

I'm extremely picky when it comes to a fall and winter coat. 
I'm in a coat from the middle of November to the beginning of April. 
Its an item I wear everyday for almost six months of the year.. 
If I'm going to be stuck in a coat for that long I might as well have fun with it.
I'm crazy for the boldly printed retro coats from the 60s and 70s. 
Fashion was so colorful and bold back then!!
 A lot of the coats were trimmed in faux fur and flared out to A line silhouettes. 
I've always had this vintage brown plaid coat but never wore it till recently.
Its a dress coat from the 60s/70s.
 I wore it with over the knee boots from Chinese Laundry.
This coat makes an amazing statement!! 
I think I may wear it for the holidays when I'm in NYC.
I feel like a queen when I put it on. Its beautifully tailored,lined,and very warm!
Winter fashion like these coats inspires me to simply enjoy the cold weather season.
There's no reason we still can't look fabulous during the colder and shorter days of winter.
