Faded Denim Jacket

Style Finds! Here's to wrapping up a great, joyus morning with the family and friends. Now, it's almost 8 PM, and you're probably wanting to ease into an Easter Sunday-esque evening outfit that's stylish yet family-ready (Know what I mean?)

Style Advice: Try a cute floral dress with a fab hat (tights is you must) — and you might want to throw on a chic denim jacket; it's a bit chilly outside.

Happy Easter! XoXo :) nikki

Hey-Guess What? You Can Absolutely Dress-Down (the trendy) Sequin!

Style Notes! I've been wrestling with how to best dress-down sequin -- until now. The fashion gal in the featured photo (by the way, who is she *ahem* Refined Style?) is showing us how to wear a sequin piece without looking overly flashy. Honestly, I shied away from rockin' sequin in fear of looking like a damn disco ball-that's not going to work-nope. Disclaimer: I do, however, love looking fashionably forward, just not in excess, ya know? 

Style Solution: I believe the balance, for me, is to pair sequin with "downtown" distressed denim (either shorts, or a skirt). Also, the featured outfit would look perfect with a pair of tennis shoes, or heels-at night. OoOo there I go again...with that "transitional" talk.

Below are more trendy sequin looks that I'm simply adoring. Yuuuuuuuup!

Winter Inspiration (Personal Faves!)

[Black on Black] 
Black Leather Skirt + Black Tights

Velour Tanks

Edged-Out Booties

Leather Jackets

Festive Feathers

Style Notes! Some of my favorite items for winter includes the following: 

1) Leather - leather skirts, leather shorts, leather gloves. 2) Slinky Tanks; currently I am obsessing over velour because it's a thicker fabric, and excellent for layering during the chilly winter season. 3) Booties! Gosh, I love a pair of sexy booties with lots of heel-height, and certainly favoring bold colors. 4) Tailored Leather Jackets; the look is stylish and makes an impressive fashion statement. 5) "Festive" Feathery (Flirty Mini) Skirts.

My picks are on-trend as well as transitional. Meaning, I can transition many (if not all) of these pieces from winter to spring, such as the velour tank, booties, and leather jacket.

What are YOUR faves for winter?

Stonewashed: Two-Way Jacket

Wear it as a cropped hoodie jacket!

Wear it upside down so it drapes like a cardigan!

Style Notes | I kinda' miss stonewashed clothing. Anyways, this two-way jacket is pretty neat—and I love that it's styled with a knee length harem pant (...which is so Gwen Stefani!) Also, the black lace up boots work! Shop the look: Mary Meyer, $96

Long Tees for Summer 2011!

Style Notes | If you can pull off wearing a long tee this summer—do it! The look is effortless with great potential to be completely chic. And if the weather is a bit cool, upgrade the look by throwing on a Western Denim Jacket. Now you're styling!  

No denim jacket? Get one A.S.A.P.! It's a must-have wardrobe item.

Shop Long Tees at needsupply.com ($42).

Shop the look.

Colorful Tweed Military Jacket

Style Notes! From the color to the tailoring -- this military-inspired jacket stole my heart. Secret: I'm a complete sucker for big, bold, black buttons!

What's Halle Berry Wearing These Days?

Style Notes | These days Halle Berry has intensified  her style by migrating over to a more rocker-chic look, as many celebrities did, like Rihanna. So what’s this style transition really all about? (hm) Whatever is it—I love it. 

Shopping Tip: A fitted leather jacket is a must-have staple item; every girl should own a few of these—in different colors!

Red Head Spotted at Paris Fashion Week

Style Notes! Is this fashionista rockin’ or what? Yes, to the side ponytail! I love how the red hair draws attention to her strikingly pale skin and red lips. And that outfit screams signature style. Street-style at its finest ;)

Busy Belted Jacket

Style Find! Check out this awesome Vintage Belt-Assembled Jacket, courtesy of Belgian fashion designer, Martin Margiela.

Very interesting jacket. 

Hm. Since the piece is already busy with straps, belts and buckles, it’s comforting that the multi-colors consist of warm earthy tones rather than bright blinding colors. I'd wear it!
