Taking a fashionable break...

I've noticed that it has been a month since I have written and that my posts have become less frequent... It has been three years since I started this blog as an expression of my obsession with style... and while I will never sacrifice my love of style, I feel it is important that I am fair to my little blog and go on an announced fashionable break... until we meet again.. Au reviour my style obsessed ones!!!

Obsession: Loeffler Randall rain wedges...

As I have mentioned {before}, rain boots just don't work for me... but then my mom sent me the link to these... 

While made for the rain, these Loeffler Randall wedges are just the the right height, style and design to be wearable throughout the day... LOVE THEM!!!

Closet intervention...

With my closets stuffed to the point where things were starting to pile on top of each other, it was time to invest in an armoire... 

After finding the armoire and setting it in place, it's time to start filling it...

I'll be going through my closets and switching around seasonal wear this weekend... the perfect way to welcome fall... until Monday!!!

View inspired styling...

As the rain poured around us on Sunday evening, we enjoyed tapas and cocktails on the porch of the inn where we were staying... pretty soon the rain stopped, and the most beautiful rainbow I had ever seen appeared before us... 

The colors were so intense and vivid, bands of colors running seamlessly across the sky... a view inspiring styling from it's beautiful hues... until Monday, enjoy!!!

Not your typical garment display...

As one of those people with limited closet space and no walls to knock down or rooms to convert,  I daydream about how I can work my wardrobe into other living spaces... shoe organizers hung on doors work, but aren't very attractive and piling clothes on top of each other in an effort to make things fit in your closet just doesn't cut it... 

On last week's episode of Design Star, I fell in love with the idea of a showroom feel for your treasured bags, shoes and outfits... framed to size, display your goods like the works of art that they are... definitely a future DIY... until Monday!!!

Almost dressed up with somewhere to go...

As I mentioned the other day, I'm off to Miami next week... a week long vacation initiated by a wedding affair... but before I can imagine myself laying on the beach and enjoying evenings out on the town, I have to put the finishing touches on my formal attire for this intimate occasion... 

 

delicate braids of silver and gold leather create the perfect heel and a gown of champagne colored satin awaits embellishment... I envision a velvet sash with an antique pin fastened around my waist...  my goal this weekend: to create this glamourous sash... to be continued... until Monday, kisses!!!

Obsession: Sparkly feet...

With summer gone, its time to welcome the change of weather that comes with fall... doses of sparkly, shiny shimmer always brightens the mood so why not add a dash to your fall style... until Monday, have a great weekend!!!

The after mass...

I returned from my trip and was set to enjoy a relaxing few days before heading back to work only to be stuck at home by the hurricane... while the weather was discouraging, it was a great excuse to tend to those over stuffed closets... 

Goodbye to Irene and hello to a Happy Monday!!!
