Chevrons, sequins, stripes, oh my! The Alice and Olivia Fall 2012 collection was fun and flirty, elegant and edgy.

Short Story
I’m not a huge fur person (although my inner Leo does love the faux stuff), but I’m drawn to this head-to-toe red ensemble. And does it get any better than a skirt that combines sequins AND chevrons? I think not.

Disco Fever
Now these are my kind of evening gowns: floor-length sequins with a sexy open back in thick black and gold stripes or dazzling emerald green. And I LOVE the idea of pairing an evening gown with a cropped leather jacket. (Brides, this look works for wedding gowns, too!)

Black (and white) Magic
These two dresses are pretty, pretty, pretty, and reflect two strong trends: a mini skirt + long, sheer skirt combo, and a Little White Dress with a demi lace peplum. Wouldn’t these be beautiful alternatives to wedding gowns?

Go Green
Long, lean, and green! More peplums, more stripes! There’s something Joker-ish about these two ensembles, yes, but their cool factor is no joke.

Well played, Alice and Olivia. Well played.

Happy New Year!

This festive NYE wedding inspiration on Green Wedding Shoes completely embodies my excitement for the year ahead. I say, cue the confetti! Break out the bubbly! Bring on the sparkles!

It’s gonna be a good year.

Cheers to 2012!

Now that the month of December has arrived (and plenty of fluffy white snow) I’m starting to get in the holiday spirit. And nothing screams “holiday cheer” more than sparkles. These sparkly party-ready tops and heels from Cake Boutique in Park City will take you through holiday season.

The Velvet sequined tank, Vince sequined top and Cynthia Rowley feather-print heels would look great with skinny jeans, black trousers or a pencil skirt. You’ll be ready to celebrate in style.
