Please give me your stuff: Olivia Palermo

I didn't know who this all smiles, curly lashes, with a perfect long bob girl was. I just saw a lot of photos of her and I always thought - "I love her outfit." My lack of knowledge of her identity can be attributed to my disgust of reality television. She was on The City that aired on MTV. I am sure she is much more then the TV-created drama. Since I found and saved many of her beautiful outfits, I looked up some things about her and found she is a daughter of a property developer and a American Vogue former editor (now an interior designer) that grew up a bit in NYC and a bit in Connecticut. She is a classic new york new york socialite that lives in Dumbo, Brooklyn with her model boyfriend, loves Cafe Gitane and Indochine and the Dumbo park overlooking the Manhattan sky line. She hangs out dowtown but has that uptown flare.


What a combination. But that's not all, what I loved most about her outfits is that they are very lady like for events and can be totally casual for the day time. Her casual looks are actually my favorite. So effortless and so beautiful. Completely not over the top. When you see a girl like this you even think to yourself - "I can look like this too," but as she lowers her Audrey Hepburn like lashes, you think again - "Maybe not."


Note how she reuses shoes (which gives us hope that a closet doesn't have to be in a separate apartment), has an abundance of flats, and I just dare you to look at how perfect her hair is.







orange is just amazing on her





I would never put this together but when I see it... it is just amazing. Gasp.

Cheap and Chic - A Guide to Bright Accessories

I have went on color overdose at Zara the other day. My bank account was in severe pain. On the other hand, I felt great. But if you are a boring black and white person even THIS season, I suggested a quick fix - a crazy colored bag or shoe. It will brighten up any outfit, however gray scale it may be. All of these pretty cheap so I suggest buying five :). Well, not unless you are getting your paycheck the next day. Who needs groceries, right?

I will make this post short since I am longing for more than 6 hours of sleep tonight, even though the possibility of that seems unlikely at this point. Ugh. You know, I have a job (or three) and a life where I need to do stuff. But my addiction takes over. Gosh, saying this I feel like Dexter (who knows, knows).

cmok!

This morning...

I just wish I wasn't lazy to do full make-up. Actually, I wish I wasn't lazy to do my hair! But you know...it's an early morning and I don't want to go to work. I am trying to inspire myself to jump off the bed and make my breakfast, do my hair, and wear something colorful. Hopefully this post helps. Wonderful colors, bronzed skin and orange lipstick. I just think these photos are so beautiful. 


I am leaving you know... Need to go to work, need to hurry up... 


cmok!

Obsessed with... just color me up baby!

From now on you will see a lot more color on my blog, maybe not as much on me... I tend to always wear black because it's just easy and you can wear it over and over again and no one will notice, while bright dresses and bold patterns always stick in people's mind's (and are easily distinguishable on facebook photos). Nobody wants to be the person that wears the same outfit over and over again. But I will have to change this spring, and I just love that we are slowly moving towards a happy, bold colored spring. Can't wait.


In the mean time, enjoy these photos and imagine you can go out in a dress right now...


cmok!






Last but not least... this amazing outfit
