Rosie Huntington Whiteley In Floral Print And Sweats

Our style crush, RHW shows off her ultra toned legs in a high-slit floral print dress, lightly accessorized with a pendant necklace and suede boots. I guess working out does pay off. Even in sweats, the girl looks GOOD!

Dreaming Of A White Summer

Nothing says Summer like a crisp, white dress. Summer is officially here, so it's officially time to break out your favorite white dress for a hot summer night. Solid white dresses are effortlessly chic and goes with basically any skin tone. Add a feminine touch with lace or sheer panels. Keep shoes neutral for a monochromatic feel, or thrown on a bright pair for fun contrast. Either option is chic and right on trend. Summer is the perfect time to experiment! Get crazy and try both!

We'd pair a sexy white dress like Miranda's with our Madison Ave bracelet for a hint of glam.

Neon Hue That Is Here To Stay

(Bracelet: Rack and Sack)

Bright hues have been popping up everywhere, neons a must for key summer pieces. Our favorite hue? The almost florescent shade of green worn by celebutantes like Olivia Munn, Leona Lewis, and Nikki Reed. We incorporated the it-color into our Look Book shoot by pairing it with our Beaded Beauty bracelet with a solid black top and bandage skirt.

Greetings From Boston

(Necklace: Rack and Sack)

After living in Boston for over four years, this was my very first time taking a day stroll through the Boston Commons Park (a much smaller, quaint version of Central Park). There have been rain showers just about every day, but I managed to snap a few quick photos while the sun peaked out. The skyline view is from my girlfriends place near Government Center I'm crashing at. A fun girls night out at a local sushi spot sums up my trip to Boston thus far.

Sizzling Summer Suits

(OYE Swimwear)

Nothing is more inspiring than a hot bikini bod and bold black suits to whip yourself into shape for summer. We're loving the sheer contrast, plunging neckline, and peekaboo one-pieces. The plunging neckline and belted waist accentuates all the right places, covering the ones you might want to hide. Never before has a one piece been so sexy, I just might keep my bikini tucked away to swap for one of these.

Musing: Miranda Kerr

(Tamed Vixen Necklace)

Our Monday Muse, Mirand Kerr looks fresh and gorgeous in her new Mango campaign ad. We love the youthful play on sexy/conservative and pop of color using a fiery orange blazer to contrast the black on black ensemble. While we find the minmalistic look charming, step it up a notch by adding a piece of jewelry. We would pair this outfit with our Tamed Vixen necklace to complete the look. Adding a complimentary statement piece brings the outfit to the next level. The gold and black necklace allows the blazer to remain the highlight while tying it all in together.
