Sam & Lavi’s young
contemporary line manages to bring elements of sophistication to playful and
often minimalist silhouettes. They’re choice of prints is top-notch and I’m
sure you can agree, there’s nothing like a beautiful floral or abstract
ensemble to add life to your look (and mood!) These ones are so nice. I love the
style of their line that seems perfect for so many occasions. Buy stylemailboxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05483543657426082735noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045177899112421327.post-32002888396492322222014-09-29T20:01:00.000-07:002014-09-29T20:01:50.586-07:00chloe, please!

Here are some of my favorite looks seen from the streets of NY Fashion Week. The sporty elements are so reminiscent of the 90s while the crop top still reigns. Both something for me to smile about. I can appreciate the tomboy ease and comfort matched with a feminine touch. What looks do you like?

clean hair is important but so is healthy hair, which means not washing every day. that's tricky if you want it to look so fresh and so clean clean (a la outkast). for LA dwellers it's especially harmful to wash daily since the water here is officially the worst. i recently had my hair colored by the top professionals at Studio LA and got the low down on LA water and it's affect on hair. stylemailboxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05483543657426082735noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045177899112421327.post-43818825440276406492013-10-09T13:17:00.000-07:002013-10-09T13:17:11.389-07:00blogger treats

tees that turn iconic designers into skeletons, tees the say thank you, tees that rep your hood... so many graphic tees. they are kind of timeless fashion. i love how they add an instant feeling of playfulness, especially when paired with something sophisticated. (i.e. a floral pencil skirt or pin-striped wide leg trousers). which ones are you currently into? here's some of my faves.

the spring/summer 2014 shows are not shying away from the crop top. some ladies aren't too stoked on midriff exposure. so what's the solution? layering! and it's perfect for fall. i love the way andy from style scrapbook paired this zara crop top over an american apparel tee. it adds structure to the look and an element of interest to the outfit. what do you think? and below, some photos from stylemailboxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05483543657426082735noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045177899112421327.post-63392811160403249192013-09-16T12:11:00.001-07:002013-09-16T12:22:45.010-07:00cutout lace
since the cutout trend doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon, it's only natural it's transgressed into other fabrics, such as lace. i'm a fan of lace if it's not too lady-like and has a bit of a grunge edge. the juxtaposition of delicate and badass. thoughts?
