Bling, Load, Mix ...

The unique personal style of the looks below are based on the More is More philosophy of dress. Completely contrary to that famous quote...of COCO CHANEL
"Once you've dressed, and before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take at least one thing off." 
Picture
The key to this look is ...mix up the patterns, add some texture, aim for the unexpected, be bold.

Leopard scarf, bracelets + watch loaded up the wrist.

Manicure Madness

Gone are the days when a manicure meant just a clear coat, or non color, such as Ballet. Of course Nude + the Classic French Manicure always look right. But now there are so many more compelling options. Experiment...go a little bit MAD.

Unorthodox colors like Chartreuse are trending for Spring.

Pop of orange on your nails + hot pink on your lips. Modern color blocking for Spring 2013.

The Remodelista Holiday Market at the Heath Center yesterday in San Francisco was awesome.  Amazing artisans selling all means of hand made, artisanal goodies that included candles, jewelry, rough linen napkins, hand knit children's sweaters and the HBG BFF Bags.     Might be bias but all the uber, chic stylish women  either came in with one of the HBG BFF bags or fell in love + bought one on the spot.   I am so grateful.   To check out more Fab woman with their HBG BFF's

Erica Tanov's POP-UP Perfection....

11/13/2012

For two magical days talented, creative, LA based designers were part of Erica Tanov's Holiday Pop-Up Shop at Larkspur Landing.   A refreshing bevy of beautiful ladies passionate about their craft were there with their wares.   The group included 2 jewelry designers, a knitter, 2 potters + a charming candle maker.   I was smitten by all.

Jeans + a Chanel Bag...the perfect match.

The ultimate high/low...of course super long legs, a beautiful face + great hair doesn't hurt.  For a price one can get all...except the long legs.  That requires good jeans.  And the bag even on ebay requires real dough http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=chanel+handbag.

Style Tip - Sport A Hat

7/9/2012

What is the perfect accessory?  A great hat.  It instantly creates mystery,
and dramatically ups the sophistication quota.  Not to mention being the perfect cover up for a bad hair day or protection against those aging ultraviolet rays.

I know I am not the only person obsessed witj Isabel Marant's hightop wedge sneakers.  They are on my must have asap list.  Although they have been around for a while the Spring Summer 2012 ones are out and they are fantastic.  I first spotted high top wedge sneakers on my stylish friend Kim when I was in NY in January.
