EMMA STONE IN CHANEL RESORT





So Emma Stone has just been knocking all looks out of the park for her Spiderman premieres, that we had to feature her again. They just had the L.A. Premiere 2 nights ago and she again looked awesome (and oh so modest!). Here she is in a Chanel Resort 2013 dress (we saw Diane Kruger in a similar dress at Cannes here). And we have to admit those Christian Louboutin shoes are really quite cool. It's like Cinderella's glass slipper on rockstar steroids. LOVE! We think she may be coming to an end of the premieres with the release of the movie on Tuesday (July 3), so crazy enough, we'll be sad not to see her stylish red carpet images pop up anymore!

CAROLINE SIEBER INSPIRED


This outfit was definitely inspired by Caroline Sieber at Paris Fashion week this past February. You've already seen this pink dress before, but I was excited to use it as a skirt in this look. I wished my sweater was a bit longer and navy but alas, you can't have everything you want! And I'm completely in love with these sunglasses as of late. I was in a jam down in Florida and finally couldn't stand the glare anymore sans sunglasses and stopped in at Riteaid. These little babies were waiting for me to find them! Anyway the moral of the story in this look is to start trying to incorporate basic sweaters over our springy dresses.

MOTORCYCLE JACKETS



These looks are really just to prepare you for a look we have coming on Monday. You know how much we love our motorcycle jackets. And you know what's so nice about them? Is that they're still going strong through fall. Leather was all over the fall runway (in everything from blazers to skirts...just check this out...let's just say that we're not going to be putting the jackets away any time soon.). It is definitely an edgy season with so much texture thrown in. Here are a couple of looks from Zara, which we think may be starting to prepare us for the roughness of fall. These are looks taken from their Lookbook for June. Pay close attention to the top look...the pairing of rough and sweet (which we've talked about before here), because our look utilizes these elements as well. Thus far we'd say a jacket like this is a pretty cool purchase these days....
(p.s.....if you want some great wide-fitting trousers kinda like these, than you should definitely check out Zara's amazing sale right now on these. We actually think they're better than Melody's!)

MODEST LOOKBOOK - Emma Stone in Lanvin





Emma Stone has been looking pretty cute in her promotion of the newest Spider Man movie coming out soon. We've definitely been impressed with many of her more demure looks seen on the red carpet around the world. For instance her Burberry Prosum look was pretty cute for one of their Tokyo events, while her Carven and Rochas looks were pretty cool as well. But we love this Lanvin dress here. She wore it for a Moscow event and we loved the color and painted look. By the way, how different it looks from the runway!

HIKING WEAR FASHION


What do you wear when you hike in a hot place like Mexico? All I can say is how lucky I am to have a good guy that convinces me that a lighter weight sandal/hiking shoe is a necessity for summer water hikes. And man has he been right. I wear these things all of the time, hiking up to waterfalls, through rivers, I even used them as a lighter shoe to walk around the Grand canyon. Don't get me wrong I've got my hard core boots that I hike the big stuff in, but these are perfect when you know water and immense heat are involved (I just hate the take off the boots and socks, get wet feet, then attempt to put the socks back on syndrome). These I got a couple of years ago half off but they still sell them here. Now onto the shorts. These are men's shorts from Walmart and I absolutely LOVE them. They are so comfy. Seriously, has anyone noticed how deep men's pockets are? I could fit all of the contents of my bag into them. Well I guess that's the point for the guys. And lastly, the glasses are $5 from Walmart. I needed a pair I could trash and it needed to possibly be unisex since someone in my life has a problem losing and breaking glasses.  All in all, I must say I was pretty dang comfortable even while wearing a one piece swimsuit underneath (man those heat up pretty quickly). Oh and the top (and hat) are Forever 21(comfy, comfy).

FASHION GONE ROGUE





The Jill Sander wool dress up top completely stole our attention the other day. This is from a photo shoot done by Fashion Gone Rogue. They've done quite a few smaller shoots exclusively for their site which are pretty dang cool. This one in particular is sort of a preview of some of the things they were seeing coming down the fall runways. The leg up they have over the hard-core magazines on the stand is that they're a blog able to do these magazine worthy shoots before the other magazines have even had time to pull their looks together. For instance, this was put together back in March right after the February shows. Let's just say their incredibly quick. Don't get us wrong, we're not going to be abandoning Vogue any time soon, but we do really enjoy viewing what they're doing over there! On a side note, we are loving the mustard dress up top. We too have a mustard dress you'll see soon from a company we are getting ready to proudly promote. So keep an eye out!
