This is how I feel today...

Still frozen in Palm Beach.

Polo Style

So every week I am going to try and do a post about the fashion and style at the Sunday polo matches. This week it was a little off as it was about 40 degrees---freezing for Palm Beachers! Yet the style was still out in full force. Almost everyone had on some sort of boot whether it be a riding inspired boot, western boot, or just a tall boot with a heel. A lot of ladies had on black leggings, dark denim, or riding inspired pant with long sweaters. The winter accessories were sprinkled everywhere plenty of scarves, ear muffs, and hats. I spotted a lot of layering for anyone getting warm enough to shed their jacket. Here is a polyvore inspired from this last week's match.

Style Goddess

So I was perusing my list of blogs to read the other day and DulceCandy87 did a post on Russian It-Girl Marislova Duma. How did I not come across this style goddess before? She is this month's inspiration board and pretty much my new style icon. She has the style aesthetic that I love classic and edgy. One day she is a preppy princess the next she's a hipster. Not only is her clothing and style amazing-the girl is beautiful! There isn't a lot of accurate information on her or what she does but I did find out that she is a writer for Russian Harper's Bazaar. Wow can her life get any better? This is who I am looking to for my outfit inspiration. Enjoy!

My new Big Girl adventure

This week has been a whirlwind as I made my mini move down to Palm Beach to start my new adventure. I am going to be interning for Shamin Abas Public Relations. I am working on the International Polo Club account.

No dolls, I'm not talking to classic Ralph Lauren collection, I am talking about REAL polo. Polo is huge in Palm Beach and is one of the "must attend" events of the social season. Each Sunday one of the shops of Palm Beach's Worth Avenue (think Rodeo Dr in LA) is showcased during the match.

I started on Thursday and am still getting the hang of things. This Sunday is my first match. I will let you all know how it goes!

Obsession of the Week

I believe that to have style one should constantly be evolving and not just fit into one style niche. Fashion right now is such a huge industry with so many different talents and aesthetics which we should all take advantage of and dig our hands into all of it. One should have multiple different muses where they get their inspiration from. This leads me to my obsession of the week:

Kat Von D is the leading lady of her own tattoo shop LA Ink which also happens to be a TLC show that I have taken advantage over the break to become obsessed with. Although Kat's style is unconventional-I love it! She is true to who she is and dresses how she feels and I admire that.

Some of her favorite pieces to sport are leggings, destroyed flares, boots, long tee shirt dresses, sky high wedges, bikini tops, destroyed vintage tees. She always has a lightening bolt accessory and huge rocker shades on.

Kat's look is unconventional but I think she is an unconventional beauty. Get your Kat on with this ripped tee shirt dress decorated with a skeleton, some wooden wedges, a black Octopus cocktail ring, and a sunflower clip in your hair. Or some ripped dirty denim flares, a black skull bathing suit top, and a leather sparkly vest. Either way, Kat is someone we can all take a little piece of her style to really edge up and personalize our look.

Rock on!

Wardrobe Staple

A wardrobe should start with key simple and timeless pieces and build from there. These are items of clothing that you will always have, that will work with numerous other pieces in your closet, and are appropriate for a variety of events. One of these pieces is the black pant. The black pant is perfect for work, dinner, and going out. There is a variety of styles for the black pant: the skinny, wide leg, and cropped. Personally I like having all three available to me suiting my mood. However, just having one is great!

Someone who works all three styles is one of my favorites...

As you can see all three styles can be worn with pumps, flats, or boots. Any top from dressy to a tee. Again, as you can see black suits any occasion.

I just added a cropped pair of black pants to my wardrobe. (I got them on MAJOR sale at Express-after this post head there asap!) I am really excited about wearing them to work channeling a look similar to below:

So take note and add this staple to your wardrobe. Then the fun part begins pairing it with all the other amazing pieces in your closet!

Happy 2010!

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year! I can't believe it is 2010! What are some of your resolutions or goals for this year? This picture sums up what a new year should bring.
