It Don't Mean A Thing if it Ain't Got That Spring!

Three words. The Great Gatsby. First, the movie was a sight to behold with stunning visuals and a soundtrack that mixed modern music with 1920's jazz. Simply put it made me feel like a participant in a revamped Roaring 20's. So I donned a outfit that had an ease inspired by 1920's shift dresses and was perfect for an 80-degree Spring Day...and introducing Ashley Weekes, my fellow fashion-lover and film aficionado friend. Here's the rundown: my coral-striped confection of a dress, paired with the nude flats I pretty much have worn out because they look good with just about everything, my layered charm necklace and my coral and gold owl earrings. Topped off by my baby-blue nails, because if you're going to do color you might as well commit to it ;). Here's a breakdown of Ashley's outfit: a sheer purple, heart-printed sleeveless chiffon blouse, paired with simple denim jeans and black thong sandals. Simple enough for comfort but still captures the spirit of the season.  I'll end with this awesome quote from a Hipster Handbook at Urban Outfitter's..."If you aren't part of the now, then you're part of the not now-and that doesn't mean the future, as the future starts now, not yesterday, and you can't be there tomorrow if you're not here now."

You Give Me Butterflies

Take an asymmetrical butterfly printed skirt, and add a good friend and what do you have?
An awesome Spring afternoon, on a Saturday. As a homage to all things Spring, I paired a simple rayon, cross-back, black tank and a sheer butterfly printed hi-low skirt. I love the breeziness of this outfit, and hi-low skirts are effortlessly chic. They've become a part of my Spring uniform, now to find the ever illusive sheer maxi skirt. ;). One more week to go, and then its Summer, or at least for us college students. Stay tuned for the summer series of xoxoFierce&Luxe.

The Mystery Behind the Mask

This past weekend was the grand event I've been helping plan all year...spring formal!!! It was a huge success, 120 students, including yours truly. We set sail on the Delaware River on the three-tiered Ben Franklin Yacht, for a night of music, food, and some really good cake :).

But now what you all came here for, the fashion of course. It was a masquerade, which I jumped at of course, so I decided to go all old Hollywood mystery for this one. I chose an elegant, and spring-inspired lilac gown, deep purple colored heels  pictured here,

Lilac Halter Top Gown (25$ Burlington Coat Factory)

 and a lace mask from Amazon, because I do not have the gift of craftiness, so I opted to buy one pictured here .

The Classic Duck-face

 Another note-worthy look of the night is my friend Cierra's dress. She paired an aqua green satin dress of her design with a simple black shoe, and completed the look with sparkly accessories. Clearly we belonged in the 1930's that night. Happy Fashion!

Gobble, Gobble

So it's that time again...the one day where anything but a Turkey and filling your belly would be uncivilized. THANKSGIVING! Breaking out my Christmas spirit, I went for a cherry red skater dress, some black sweater tights for warmth, and my goes with everything black boots. I put my twists into a ballet bun, to keep  up a posh feel and then stuffed my face :) .The festive season is upon us, and remember to take every opportunity just to feel a little special. Today was the day to remember how fortunate we really are, stylishly of course. Happy Turkey Day! Eat a slice of pie for me.

The Weather Outside May Be Frightful...

But that is no reason your fashion can't be delightful. In the midst of the dramatic drop in temperatures on the East Coast, I took the opportunity to pull out some flannel. In order to bring some glam to the rustic appeal of flannel, I threw on a baby pink crystal necklace, some black sweater tights for warmth, and my fav cognac colored riding boots. But you can make the look your own by adding a vest or a cardigan for another layer of interest (and warmth ;) ). Happy Fashion!
