How will you be celebrating? If you’re in DC, I can’t think of anything better than a pool party on the Donovan House rooftop!

In case you haven’t seen it, Elle recently asked their Interactive Designer to wear “spring’s most shocking hues” for 10 days straight. And I love every. single. look. For more, and to read what Stephanie is wearing and why, check out the Elle Wardrobe Challenge.

Street Style Obsessions

Fri, 07 Jan 2011 00:00:00 +0000

If you caught my post last month, you know I’ve been finding lots of cold weather looks I love. Lately, I’ve found myself obsessing over slightly less wintery looks – how great are these street style shots? Note to self: look into leather pants, and buy several pairs of pointy toe pumps immediately. Also, anyone know where a girl can grab some leopard print booties? Amazing.

“The saying ‘opposites attract’ goes well beyond human relationships — and the affair between orange and gray mingling to create a stunning balance is a perfect example. Depending on the tones, the duo can be youthful and whimsical, eclectic and bold, moody and sophisticated, or masculine and sleek, and any combo in between!” – Apartment Therapy
