Go Stripe Yourself
I made the mistake of shooting this outfit while traveling home to Wisconsin. Why was this a mistake? Because my brothers were in tow. Let’s just say there was no shortage of Pepto Bismol jokes about this color. Whatever, dudes. You’re just jealous you can’t rock this color combo at your office. Sweater: J. Crew; Skirt: J.

Monday Muse
Bad case of the Mondays? Well not for long, suckers. On days like today when you’re not exactly eager to face the world, try easing into a new work week with a more subdued spring fashion trend: neutrals! While bright prints and bold color combos may be stealing the spotlight this spring, Calvin Klein‘s Spring 2013 Collection as well as other design houses like Tibi (see dress below) offer us amazing inspiration for pairing together neutral pieces and colors. These neutral fashion elements more often serve as the foundation for the addition of a brighter statement piece and rarely get…

Suit Up
This spring, the sartorially astute have been sporting some seriously swanky suiting. (Ok, I promise the rest of this post is not written as one giant alliteration.) I for one can’t get enough of these stunning suits (last one, promise), and the best part of the rampant suiting trend is that these suckers are perfect for work or play. This particular full suit may be best worn at the office, but you better believe the pieces will be stepping out of my closet separately for some of my favorite après work and weekend looks this spring and summer. However, if you’re new to…

Nuclear Nails
Thanks to the fall 2013 runway shows of designers like Costello Tagliapietra, Katie Gallagher, Monique Lhullier and Nicole Miller, metallic nail polish is officially… a thing. The jury is still out on whether I hate this trend or not (I did once claim to hate florals of pretty much every kind and we all know how that rivalry ended). However, I can firmly say that as far as the office goes, metallic nails should be put squarely on the same cubicle crime pile as neon nails. When you’re spitting brilliance at the office, you don’t want your colleagues to be distracted by the…

Florals: Friend or Foe?
Despite my love for the natural beauties discussed yesterday, I have been waging war on any and all floral-printed fashion items basically since I was first allowed to dress myself. For some reason, I’ve always steered clear of flowery garments because I felt like anything floral was in stark opposition to my generally classic, unfussy fashion sense. Oh how very, very wrong I was. This spring, the ubiquitous, striking floral prints are making a convert of even me. And, while not all florals are meant for the office, this silk skirt paired with the right jacket and accessories looks…

To me, nothing screams spring more than daffodils, and the golden beauties depicted above that were recently planted in front of my office definitely ease the pain of returning to work this Monday morning. Today’s Monday Muse is all about these quintessential spring flowers which also serve up a heavy dose of spring fashion inspiration thanks to Rupert Sanderson. The celebrated British designer whose shoes are worn by the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow, Naomi Watts and the future Queen of England (to name a few) also draws inspiration from the beautiful spring flower and actually names every shoe after a different…
