Style Staple: Fur Stole

An accessory that I'm loving these days are fur stoles.
Evidently, I was a pretty cool kid. Take a look at this picture of me for Halloween circa 2000:
 My bestie Megan and I were 'rich ladies'. Please note my amaze fur stole that I got at a garage sale.
Now, here's the bad news. I searched my old dress up box high and low for that baby and can't seem to find it. I'm kinda convinced my big brother Dan has it somewhere....

Luckily my mom had a similar stole on an old coat that she has given to me so now I can pull off a little of this:

And this:

via oh my heart
 So cozy and chic, and definitely classic in my opinion. I think this should be a staple in anyone's wardrobe for the chillier months.
I'm sorry if any of you are offended by fur! Faux is always a great option.

Classically chic

I had the pleasure of playing personal shopper for a good friend last weekend. She has great taste and style but confessed that when she gets her purchases home she can never figure out how to put them together! As you know, I'm a proponent of purchasing great classic pieces and layering in trends and fun, less expensive finds. We started with the classics on Saturday. Here's a selection of the staples we came up with! I'd say if you're feeling like your wardrobe needs a revamp then start with the items shown here, a navy blazer, a camel cashmere sweater, great comfy ballet flats, etc. etc. I'll share the next look she scored tomorrow!

Monday Mashup with Gorgeous [GREIGE]

I hope everyone is enjoying their Holiday weekend!

Today's Monday Mashup is brought to you by the letter G.

Gorgeous [GREIGE]


Mixing of the colors gray & beige are always so soft.  Toned down neutral colors for an easy pallet.  

The Wiktionary states:

Adjective

greige 
  1. (of textiles) Unfinished; not fully processed; neither bleached nor dyed.
    The rolls of greige cloth sat on the factory floor waiting to be printed.


Designer David Jiminez mixes these tones so well with a masculine look.  

Our STYLE FILES outfit & accessories in [GREIGE] by Chloe show very well with a more feminine chic look.  

Stay tuned later this week for more from the STYLE FILES of Gorgeous [GREIGE].

We will take a look at photos from a thrifting/antique trip, additional designs by David Jiminez and more. 

Also, the Snob Blog is sporting a fresh new look...

channelling Jackie

In honor of the late Jackie O's birthday on July 28th, I thought I'd share a fashion post inspired by her timeless, colorful style.  Plus, I was overdue and had a request for a "fashion" post. Jackie, we'll always love your style. I can't lie, I'm inspired by this fashion icon when purchasing the classic pieces for my wardrobe! I'm also loving red and turquoise at the moment.

casual night out!

I'm heading out tonight with a friend after a long week of work, we're going someplace casual and seaside. Here's a typical look I might put on. It gets cool in Boston at night, so the little denim jacket is a must. I also love to layer necklaces. The key is to just keep the lengths different! Happy Weekend!
