ONE SHOE, FIVE WAYS

GuidesOutfits

I was honored to be asked by Barneys New York to style this Narciso Rodriguez boot five different ways to celebrate the launch of Narciso's signature shoe collection. I love this particular pair of suede & ostrich color blocked boots, but all of his shoes this season are to die for! The collection reflects Narciso's design sensibility and unique vision. The complete collection is available at Barneys stores nationwide and online at Barneys.com.

MEXICAN ROSES

OutfitsTravel

We've been saving this vintage piano shawl to shoot in San Miguel de Allende for some time–very bohemian and full of movement, much like the city itself. Worn with a floral chiffon dress from Anthropologie, 20's beads, and Balenciaga shoes I borrowed from my mom.

EXPLORING THE CULTURAL CENTER

We spent a while climbing up the winding labrynthine pink castle that is San Miguel's cultural center…it's completely overgrown and there were many naughty school children using it like a jungle gym ;) We played catch with the paper airplanes they sent us for a while. A great place for dog watching! Oh, those little chihuahuas make me miss Kim.

Wearing Rag & Bone for Intermix jeans, beat up old boots, my mom's concha belt, dumb t-shirt, and a Rugby tweed blazer and bandana!

SHAGGY SWEATER

Here are some shots from our walk to get breakfast yesterday. Wearing a shaggy sweater from Style Nanda and boots from Strategia. We are having too much fun here, can't wait to share more!

I am so lucky, right before I left Jessica squeezed me in for a hair appointment. I am in love with my cut and color!! Cutest blogger and best girl ever.

A few shots from a beautiful evening wandering around San Miguel de Allende. The sun isn't up here yet, but I'm ready for another day of exploring! More to come soon.

VACATION DREAMING

Collages

I'm about to head out the door to leave for a week in Mexico. I've been packing frantically…that's the best time to do an honest assessment of your wardrobe I've found. If I could add a few luxurious basics to my bag…I would go for these! I'm going to be in the mountains, and it's going to be perfect sweater weather. Now THAT is a vacation!

CHLOE’S FAVORITE BOOTS

Collages


Chloé has reissued these studded buckle ankle boots in every color imaginable over the past few seasons. Why shouldn't they? Anyone spending any amount of time looking at street style blogs online has seen this shoe a billion times and it still hasn't worn out it's welcome. It's such a good shoe. I am dying over this python version. The classic black is perfect too.

There are quite a few shoes I wish would make a comeback!! Until then, ebay scouting is my best hope. Here are some of my top picks for shoes to be reissued.
