Thick as Thieves


I've been forever obsessed with the look of the 1920's. While others were riding bikes or bugging their little brothers, my childhood friend and I were indoors (trying) to copy Erte's art deco beauties. It may be my dark hair and pale skin or perhaps it's all the vintage jewelery covering my vanity, but people have always associated my style with the 1920's era.

One of my favorite pieces in my closet is a vintage bracelet my Grandmother wore to her prom when she was 16. She gave it to me for my 8th grade graduation and I will be wearing it on my wedding day as my "something old" treasure. Even though it's simply costume jewelery, it's so special to me not only because of the sentimental value, but also due to fact that it looks like it might have been worn by Clara Bow.

Here is some inspiration for the week. I adore this editorial from Marie Claire Italia. I'm pretty sure I'm going to join the circus. Sorry guys.

Style Copy Cat: Taylor Tomasi


John Fairchild once said, "Style is an expression of individualism mixed with charisma. Fashion is something that comes after style." Former Teen Vogue Senior Market Editor and reigning Accessories Director for Marie Claire, Taylor Tomasi, seems to embody the very essence Fairchild was referring to. The fiery redhead always looks impossibly chic and never seems to run out of fabulous outfits to keep us coming back for more. She has become known as a fashion darling in this industry for her uncanny ability to mix designer labels with classic pieces.

This Style Copy Cat is all about layers of stacked bangles, the perfect leather jacket, super high heeled boots and a box of Revlon red hair color. If you really want to embrace Taylor's style, try layering multiple watches on your wrists which has become her signature.
