Jazz Festival in New Orleans Fashion

Jazz Feastival


I am headed to Jazz Fest in New Orleans on Thursday and wanted to share this New Orleans inspired post for my trip. New Orleans is the perfect city to wear a bit of lace and old fashioned jewelry. But walking around all day you need a good pair (and of course stylish shoes). And last but not least some cut-offs and a rock and roll style bag with fringe and a long strap that won't get in the way when you are dancing in the streets.

Shown: Butterfly Lace Frill Hem $65 Topshop, Antik Batik Bongo Bag $320 Net-a-Porter, Gap Destructed jean shorts $25, Narciso Sunglasses - Roberto Cavalli $285 Forzieri.

Spring - It's All About White

Welcome to Polyvore!


After many months of dark colors since the spring has sprung I am totally infatuated with the color white. White jeans, the perfect white t-shirt, and dressy white sandals are all on my shopping list this month.

What to Wear Now: Spring Scarves



My favorite thing to accessorize with right now is a light weight gauzy scarf. It adds just a bit of coziness on a chilly spring morning and looks chic throughout the day. For inspiration I thought I would share these images by Madewell 1937. I think they did a good job pairing scarves with these spring time looks.

Swimsuits by Volcom



As the weather gets nicer (almost 70 here in NYC today) my thoughts turn to the beach. And what I need this summer is a kick-ass bathing suit. What I look for in a bathing suit; #1 it has to be flattering, #2 not too skimpy, #3 I have to be able to be active in it paddle tennis, swimming, volleyball etc. I recently came across the Volcom swimsuits from their new summer line. Here are two of my favorites from the collection. I really like this black one-piece. Sometimes one pieces can be too conservative especially in the back, covering up too much area. This one-piece by Volcom though has a really adorable back with criss-cross straps and just the right amount of coverage in the front as well. And I really like the geometric interest of the two different strips on this two-piece. Although you can also get a matching small striped bottom if you prefer. Check out the collection on Volcom for more styles.
