Vintage Inspired Runway: Dolce + Gabbana Spring 2014

Dolce and Gabbana never fails in our books. D&G is always romantic, vintage inspired, and utterly glamorous. These are the kind of clothes we would live in if we were a modern day princess and had the matching bank account. The Dolce and Gabbana Spring 2014 runway collection just tugged at my floral loving heart. I also loved the Greek nuances and the romantic Pre-Raphaelite inspired hair. Absolutely dreamy!

How To Wear A Vintage Circle Skirt | Style Notes

 You know those times where you are standing in your closet, in front of dozens of options and you just simply hate everything? Well so do we and nine times out of ten we reach for a full skirt because no matter what they usually kick us out of a fashion rut. There is a reason this shape has been continually produced for decades. There is just something so feminine about a full circle skirt! We have put together some of our favorite vintage and modern looks that feature full circle skirts below to show you how easy they are to work into your everyday wardrobe. If you are as in love with them as we are, take a look at the options we have listed from our vintage shop down at the bottom. 

Our take on how to wear a full vintage skirt! We paired this vintage 1950s circle skirt with our vintage inspired cropped striped Bardot Bardot top for a perfect Spring look!

Neutral Palette | Organic by John Patrick

This color palette is the epitome of cool, classic, and chic (at least in my book) and I am currently in the midst of revamping my wardrobe to mostly all neutrals. One of my favorite elements of this collection are the tea length flared skirts very reminiscent of the 1950s. It's like Christian Dior's 'New Look' for the hip + happenin' of 2014. Thankfully I own plenty of vintage 1950s skirts that are very similar to these styles (because as we all know, runway fashion is muy muy expensive!)

Style Crush: Clemence Poesy

There are so many vintage muses that we get inspiration from, but for a change we wanted to pay homage to a few of our favorite modern style crushes. This week we have chosen the ultimate cool girl, Clemence Poesy. Poesy is a french actress and model. We love her laid back off duty style for everyday and how she can effortlessly transform to a more feminine look for the red carpet. And can we please talk about her hair?! We are extremely envious of her perfectly messy locks. Take a look at a few of our favorite Clemence looks below.

Fall Fashion | Autunm Style Inspiration

Well it's finally happened, we are officially thinking of Fall! Boots. Chunky sweaters. Wool hats. I think we are in love! This explains our recent "pin-a-thon" over on our Fashion for Autumn Pinterest page.

Colors such as camel, tan, cafe au lait, mustard, and grey are what we will be filling our closets with and also thinking about what we will be stocking the Vintage Shop with for future fall shop updates. We're also way obsessed with hats! Especially the vintage Stetson looking ones. J'adore!

Are you all craving fall clothing yet? If not, take a look below at some of our favorite inspiration photos and we promise you will be!
