Style Trend: Printed Denim

I got lucky last week! These printed denim from Lucky Brand was hiding in the clearance rack at TJMaxx and I found it! Marked down to $29 from original $119, this baby was just waiting to call my closet its home! I love its print and the comfortable fit and the knowledge that I scored a great deal makes this even prettier:-) Styled with a silk blouse (as I did here) or with a basic Tee, this jeans could be my new basic denim!

The constant rain last week made my hair cry! The perpetual frizz and the unruly waves were no match to the Andrea residue we had in east coast, and I weathered the (hair) storm the only way I know, tie 'em up!

Did you score any retail deal lately? I'd love to hear you favorite bargain shopping places. I am linking up today with Monday Mingle. For daily of style delights, connect with me on

Style Trend : Drawstring Pants

One part comfort of a sweatpants, one part chic of the silk trousers and generous splash of spring bright color - that's my kinda bottom! The drawstring pants are as sleek as they are versatile. Dress them with pumps and blazer or dress them down with a summer tee - you will find 100 ways to style them this season. I love the cobalt blue (seems to be my go-to color these days, as evident by my recent posts) chiffon pants by Forever 21 (under $20!!) and I decided to dress them up a little.

Blouse - Choies, similar option from Express

I wanted a minimalist style so I chose this elegant black and white chiffon blouse from Choies.com with cute enamel button details on the back.The fit and flow of this blouse is just so perfect and it is a great piece to build an outfit for its simplicity and 'clean' style.

Style Trend: Baroque Prints

Some have called this style Pajama Pants and the pattern Porcelain Print. I will stick with more elegant Baroque - thank you very much! Made widely popular by Gianni Versace in the 90s, the baroque prints are making a huge comeback (although they never completely went away!).
I found this pretty pair of pants (the blue is so very French!) at Forever 21 under $25! Rest of the outfit simply followed it!

Style Trend: Mod Dresses

There is something very confident, über chic and somewhat innocent in a mod dress. Their above the knee length is sexy, the clean, structured lines are ladylike and the style is old and modern at the same time! I love this style on everyone , be a liitle girl or her mom! No matter what shape, size or figure you have, you can never go wrong with a mod dress. This year mod dresses have come back with a bang. Shift, sheath or lose drape,a chic mod dress can is as versatile as err a mod dress. As the cliche saying goes -Take it to work, go to an event and bring back to dinner all in one day!
