TAKE ME OUT/marc jacobs clear cowboy boots

It's been so hot here in Denver!  It took everything I had to take these photos last Sunday afternoon...but I did it.  The PVC cowboy boots didn't help either. 

Hope you enjoy the ensemble...kind of a crazy one.  Tropical print + PVC cowboy boot + stripes = good?  I think so...because it made a lot of sense to me when I put it together!

IF YOU LIKE SOMETHING, PUT A BIRD ON IT/zara embroidered bomber jacket

Fell in love with this jacket right away.  I'm a total sucker for anything with a bird on it.  But I have to say that Zara's website continues to dazzle me this season (bird or not) and I just can't stop placing orders!  

Also, I was very much inspired by the April 2013 NYLON Magazine, as I decided to do the whole veil/baseball cap look.  Love it!  Too warm for a beanie, so I might as well incorporate the veil in another manner.  

Check out Jerrmaner...always looking good!  SEE/homme

SIGNS OF SPRING/alexander wang cummerbund silk-crepe pants

The sun was out today and I couldn't be happier!  I felt like one of the models from the Marc Jacobs' F/W 2013 show...feeling almost dependent on the sun.  The warmth, the light, the overall feeling of the city...it was a beautiful day here in Denver.  And I definitely needed it to conquer my wintertime blues.  

Since it was warm, I decided to whip out my boudoir jacket that I purchased at the Antique Mall.  I purchased this cutie a while ago, but it has been far too cold to wear it.  It makes me think of the Alexis Mabille Spring 2013 Couture collection...so soft and feminine.  Soft, feminine and lots of pink is what I'm dreaming of for Spring.

TUX BY DAY/rianna phillips digitally printed scarf

 

 

Fell in love with Rianna Phillips' prints as soon as I saw them on Instagram.  I knew that I had to do my research and find out everything this designer had to offer.  So...I checked out her Etsy shop and found this amazingly enchanting scarf.  Isn't the print spectacular?  Spikes and crystals create an intriguing metal wonderland.  So fabulous, that I chose to wear my scarf as a bandeau top just so I could show off the print.

PETER PAN/metal collar necklace

I became obsessed with these collar necklaces while in Paris.  I saw so many of them on the streets, but yet I couldn't find one to purchase.  Lucky for me, I was able to find one at H&M last week and now (as expected), it is my new favorite accessory. 

Sure, I could have just ordered the Louis Vuitton metal collar, but I figured I should get my fix with a less expensive version...at least to start.  Taking baby steps is a sign of maturity. :)

BLINDED BY TRANSPARENCY/visor

   

I have been desperately craving a visor and thanks to Jerrmaner, one appeared on my doorstep last week. 

Think McQueen, Marc by Marc or Givenchy, but any way you slice it, the visor is one of the hottest accessories of the moment and has been seen on many of the runways.  I very much enjoyed the McQueen approach of dressing it up, so that is exactly what I did by pairing mine with an organza bubble mini.
