May Must Haves

I think one of my favorite posts to put together for PostGradChic is the monthly must haves collage. I really hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
For May, I'm really loving statement pieces that dress up simple pieces. May is all about lightening everything up, from layers, to colors, so having one stand out item really makes an outfit pop. A great patterned kimono is the perfect topper for casual weekend, while jacquard shorts can make a night out look shine. A pop of color peep-toe booties add fun to any look, as does a statement geo cuff, and bright pink lip stain. Also, the white YSL coat is absolutely gorgeous and versatile- you could wear it as a date night dress on it's own, or top off a great leather pant and tee outfit! Definitely something I am lusting after!

Making It Work

Last Friday and Saturday were abnormally beautiful days for February in San Francisco, so naturally, I am super unhappy with the fact the the wind picked up, temperatures dropped, and Karl the Fog has reared his ugly head. My solution to this was to wear a Summery jumpsuit in the dead of Winter. A few layers, knee high socks, and booties kept me cozy. While it's a far cry from the simple outfit I wore yesterday, it just proves that my sense of style is just as unstable as San Francisco weather.

Jacket: Zara. Sweater: Vintage YSL. Jumpsuit: Anthropologie. Booties: Rachel Comey. Bag: Pour la Victoire. Belt: Vintage.

Trend-Spotting: Tuxedo Chic

I LOVE the tuxedo look I've been seeing on the red-carpet, and most recent fashion shows- so here is how I would wear the look. Just finish it off with a bold red lip, cat-eye, and slicked back hair!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Military Chic

Here is a look that I would absolutely love to own and wear! I love the Military inspired looks that came down the runway this past Fall Burberry show, and channeled that with this look. The vest style dress with oversized pockets is absolutely gorgeous, and I would pair a white button down to make it a little more crisp. Ankle strap heels continue the toughness of the look, while the red lip, and sparkly statement bangle feminize it. The bag is one I have been eyeing for months, and trusty Ray-Bans are my go to!
