Trina Turk for Banana Republic

Have you seen the fabulous collaboration with Trina Turk and Banana Republic?  I was so excited when I heard about it, and rushed out to the store the morning it came out so that I could experience all of its wonder.  And it was worth it.

I am totally in love with all of the ads for this line.  Adorable!  Coco Rocha looks fantastic in them.

The colors of the pieces are so bright and fun and perfect for summer!

I especially love the dresses.  I really need to add 1, 2  & 3 to my closet!  All of the pieces are really versatile and perfect for mixing and matching.  Plus, they have Banana price tags, so they are easier on the wallet.  

Have you seen the full collection?  Do you love it like I do?

June Essentials

Now that is it June 1, it is officially the start to the summer season!  I absolutely love summer.  Children are out of school, tans are becoming evident, vacations start (and eventually end)...

Whether you are heading to the beach, or hanging by your pool, here is my list of the must have pieces for the month!

Get the Look

I don't know about you, but I am kind of addicted to Pinterest.  I use it to get ideas for fashion, for decorating ideas, for recipes, future planning, things that inspire me.  It is SO addicting!  I see so many things on there that I want to try or recreate... course I have already been planning baby rooms for children I don't have and enough DIY projects to last me a year.

I pin and re-pin a lot of fashion looks that I really like to try to pull from.  I recently found an image that I absolutely am loving!

As simple, yet classy as this look is, it could be seen as a little bit difficult to emulate... 

but I think I have the perfect pieces to get you the same look with a little more color! And since it is warm, I would pair it with some platform wedges instead of the boots. 

Jacket: Zara 

Top: Hive and Honey- Piperlime

Leggings: Splendid- Piperlime

Bag: Madewell- Shopbop

Shoes:  Elizabeth & James- Piperlime

I would accessorize with a great looking necklace and some great bangles.  

So what do you think?  Do you love this classic look with a little edge?
