Pastel jeans are going to be popping up everywhere for spring, and we're obsessed. For a fresh take, pair them with a white sweater or top—style points for off-the-shoulder or statement sleeve details. Then, to keep it grounded and fashion-forward, complete the look with black shoes and accessories.
This street style babe stepped out wearing head to hem white, with the exception of her cap-toe heels. Her feminine, lacy top contrasts perfectly against her menswear-inspired trousers to create an outfit we can't wait to try out.

This holiday season, break out of that little black dress rut for something that makes more of a statement. Enter the brocade and embroidery trend (one of my favorites at the moment), which is guaranteed to lend a festive touch to any outfit. With that in mind, here is my take on the perfect holiday party dress look, with my top picks from Nordstrom.
This asymmetrical printed skirt from Neiman Marcus makes quite the statement. For fall, I thought it would be great styled with a luxe camel sweater, chic sunglasses, a simple silver watch, and a classic quilted bag. As for the shoes, rather than go with an expected pair of lace-up heels or ankle boots, I went with sleek white sneakers give the look a laid-back cool feel. Top with a bright red-orange lip, and you've got a comfy, yet chic fall look!
When it comes to putting together an outfit with a good mix of high and low pieces, there are a few guidelines I like to follow. So, when Neiman Marcus asked me to create a high-low look with my top picks from their site, I put them to good use!
For the foundation of the look, I tend to stick to more affordable basics like a striped tee and jeans. Next, I like to add in splurge-worthy pieces, which for me usually means a statement bag and shoes. In this case, I couldn't help but include the printed Valentino boots— If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already know they're my current shoe crush. Finally, I like to mix in jewelry, sunglasses, and beauty favorites that can range from budget-friendly to there-goes-my-rent-check. Et voilà, mission high-low accomplished!

I've gotten some requests recently to share my beauty routine, so even though this is a bit out of my comfort zone, I figured why not have a little fun (hello, kissy face!), and give you guys the run-down. I've always been pretty low-key and try to get my makeup done in about 15 minutes. Here's what I currently use for my daily go-to beauty look...
BLUSH/BRONZER/HIGHLIGHTER: For some definition, I use either the Urban Decay Naked Flushed Bronzer, Highlighter & Blush Palette in Streak or BareMinerals All-Over Face Color in Warmth. I blend the bronzer with any brush I have handy along my cheekbones, hairline and lightly on my nose and chin. If I'm in the mood for a little color I add some of the blush from the palette over the apples of my cheeks. For highlighting, I'm obsessed with Chantecaille Liquid Lumière Illuminator in Sheen. I dab a little along the top of my cheeks, the inner corner of my eyes and under my brow arch for a flattering and subtle glow.
EYES: To begin, I lightly dab one of the bronzers mentioned earlier to my lids for a little depth. Next, I tightline my eyes with simple black eyeliner. I like to use the Almay Contour Crayon Eyeliner since it doesn't smudge as much as a pencil. If I want to add some flair and have some extra time, I like to do a winged cat-eye look with Cover Girl Intensify Me! Liquid Liner. To complete my eyes, I go straight for my Shiseido Eyelash Curler and throw on a few coats of Cover Girl Lash Blast Fusion Mascara in Very Black.
This is the kind of look I could wear all summer long. It's perfect for almost everything except working out. On a side note, how cute are the tiny palm tree earrings?!
This striped crop top with fringe trim is a fun and flirty way to incorporate the current fringe trend into your spring and summer looks. Keep it casual with skinny jeans and sandals, or dress it up with pleated culottes and pumps!
I jumped at the chance to create my own stack of Monica Vinader rings. It wasn't easy since all of her pieces are stunning, but ultimately I fell for these two beauties.

The Stella and Bow team was kind enough to gift me their whimsical Zuma Cuff, and I haven't taken it off since. I pair it often with my dainty Ginette NY bracelet.
