DUO: Day to Night Challenge

Michelle Martin — Tue, 13 May 2014 13:00:43 +0000

We were challenged by British shoe company, DUO, to choose our favorite pair of shoes from their shop and style them from day to night. It was so much fun styling around the shoes to come up with complete new outfits, from our own wardrobe, to create two totally different looks. Check out what we came up with and all the other options that DUO has to offer! Michelle is wearing the Ela pump in Cream. “I always have trouble finding my shoe size when ordering online but their fit guide is on point. If you are looking for a pump that can take you from work to drinks with out having to swap into flats, look no further.” Day Look- Shorts: rag & bone; Top: Alexander Wang; Jacket: Iro (similar here) Night Look- Dress: Alice & Olivia (similar here); Necklace: Marrin Costello Sarah is wearing the Zahira sandal in white. “I’m obsessing over everything white this season and these sandals are no exception. They are super comfortable and easy to wear from a casual day-time look to a night out on the town. I will be getting tons of wear out of these bad boys this summer!” Day Look- Jeans: Zara; Tee: Eleven Paris; Leather: Fillmore Night Look- Skirt: […]

How to Dress Warm for Spring?

admin — Thu, 27 Mar 2014 12:00:20 +0000

Spring is finally upon us, yet we are still bundled up here in DC with snow still covering the ground and temps in the low 30’s and 40’s. It’s kind of hard to think of wearing shorts and silk dresses, in the near future, when all we want to do is throw on sweats and a hoodie. This week we felt inspired by the the sporty trends that strutted down the Spring 2014 runways. We paired this must have rag & bone v-neck sweater with a pair of Zara boyfriend jeans and a pointy toe pump to create a soft, casual look yet still appropriate to keep us warm in this brutal weather. Definitely looking forward to pairing this sweater with a cute black skort or cut off boyfriend shorts once the temperatures warm up! Thanks to this sweet boy, Louis, for modeling with his mommy. Lucky for him, he has a full fur coat to keep him warm! Outfit Details Sweater: rag & bone (buy here) Jeans: Zara Women’s (sold out online, try these) Shoes: Jimmy Choo Studded pump (sold out, love these!) Lip Stain: YSL babydoll kiss & blush (buy here) xo Michelle and Sarah

Crop tops for Spring 2014

It’s kind of hard to believe that Spring is only 8 weeks away as I glance out side to a snow storm that I was not quite ready for with temps in the high 50’s just the other day. In DC, inclement weather usually results in an early work dismissal which allowed me time to pull out my laptop and casually browse New York Fashion Week’s Spring 2014 trends and everything that we have to look forward to. Every week until Spring finally arrives, we are going to showcase one of our favorite trends that we can’t wait to style! The crop top is hands down my favorite trend for spring 2014. I love the fact that it can be styled in so many different ways and for all ages. From a hip down town city girl to a sophisticated lady like ensemble. Here are some of our favorite takes on this trend. Let the inspiration begin! Now time to tone up those abs w/ 8 weeks to go! Or you can always just layer the look 😉 xo
