Lot's of traveling coming up in the near future which got me looking at makeup bags. These days a makeup bag can be used to really hold anything. I've even used them as a case for my camera. Here are some fun and colorful bags to help keep you organized.

Brushstrokes
You may or may not know that I am a huge Zara fan. The company is an international success for obvious reasons. Although, some argue that the quality does not match the price tag. Sure, one could say that, but it's not H&M nor is it a top designer. Some of my best and timeless pieces are from Zara. These brushstroke like prints caught my attention when viewing the new collection. The collars and wide sleeves also make each piece. The shirt which can be see here has a beautiful opening in the back. Purchasing a piece of clothing that can be dressed up or down is a bonus. I often think about a couple different options of ways to wear an item before purchasing it. This dress would be one of those. For me pairing it with my black sequin high top Converse would be more for a causal, edgy look. Of course ballet flats, a Levi's jean jacket, chunky knitwear or booties would also work. In fall I may even pair it with a pair of skinny denims and belt it. Pumps or ankle booties would help glam it up with some accessories. Zara has great items this season and worth checking them out or even going to try on some pieces. Which brings me to my last thought, sometimes you may not be in the market for purchasing, but having fun and trying clothing on can also be inspirational. I've been a victim to this many of times and go home and realize there are combinations similar to what's in the stores that can be created.

First post of 2014! These photos felt completely appropriate for the start of a new year. I came across this editorial project for FOAM magazine on Behance. Patterns in the set design and in the clothes. Just perfect. Stay tuned for pics from my amazing holiday spent overseas. Cheers!

This is a great photo of Fratelli Rossetti loafers from the 70's. Fantastic and beautifully composed. Hats off to the photographer and stylist. Thinking warm thoughts as it starts to feel a little more like winter in LA.
