MCLV Style: Statement Accessories

November 3, 2015 in Fashion, MCLV Style

Black-and-white is a staple for me. It’s classic, it’s flattering, it’s easy.

So how do you keep your style modern and fun but stick to an easy-to-wear color palette?

Black & White Windowpane Top – Tibi

Slim Black Pants – Vera Wang for Kohl’s

Cropped Black Blazer – Banana Republic

Red Heels – Steve Madden

Antigona Satchel – Givenchy

Star Earrings – Les Mechantes

You add high impact accessories. They have the unique ability to elevate the style of a look with minimal effort. Which is definitely a win-win in my book.

Take this look for example – Black pants, windowpane print black & white top, and a cropped black blazer. Simple & timeless. A killer pair of red heels adds a focal point and takes it to the next level.

Since I was heading to a wine-tasting event after shooting with the fabulous Brad of Pacifica Galleria, I decided to add a my current favorite earrings – These dangling stars from Les Mechantes. The perfect punctuation for the look!

Fall Accessories

November 12, 2014 in Fashion

I recently shared some of my Fall Essentials, the pieces that you can add to your existing wardrobe to help you create fun, flattering, on-trend looks for the season. If you feel like you’ve got all the building blocks for a great Fall wardrobe already, the perfect way to amp up your style for the season is to layer on some eye-catching accessories.

Everything from the killer boots that will take you where you want to the striking hats and bold bags that will finish off your look.

Bold Bags:

Keep your hands free this Fall with the perfect cross-body bag – Or you can even try out a chic little belt bag. Who could have guessed that designers would bring back the fanny pack with a fun, modern twist?

Hats:

The perfect way to finish off your look for Fall is with a chic topper – From classic black hats to printed versions for a bold take on this classic style for the season.

Ankle Boots:

The first thing that I pull out of my closet when the weather starts to cool down are my favorite boots. From soft Peter Pan-inspired booties to va va voom over-the-knee stunners, Fall is all about boots! So give your feet a break and try out some of these flat or chunky heeled ankle boots this season.

Faux Fur:

A great way to keep warm as the temperatures drop is with cozy layers of faux fur – From boho chic vests to soft scarves to glamorous outerwear perfect for layering.
