Sundance Festival Trend

A big trend this fall was knit graphic sweaters like the two above. I love this casual look.

These are great transitional sweaters for this time.

My favorite movie at Sundance was For a Good Time, Call everyone should check it out here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1996264/

Miss America 2012

And the 2012 Miss America is.... 

Laura Kaeppeler, Miss Wisconsin

After watching the show I feel that it is well deserved, she definitely is beautiful and had a great response to the Good Morning America host Laura Spencer's question about political affiliation. 

It was interesting that the last five contestants were all brunettes and that all but one (the winner) opted for white or off white gowns.

They all looked stunning, but I do have to say my favorite gown was the one worn by Miss California, who is the one at the far right. I love the long sleeve white gown, very elegant and different from the usual bedazzled gowns worn at pageants.

My Look of Today

I am starting to transition from winter to spring wardrobe.

I am wearing a vintage sheer high low dress in a chevron like print with black BCBGeneration lace tights that gives the feeling of mixing prints. I decided to wear a black BCBG Max Azria blazer because I wore this to work and had a few business meetings today.

I completed the look with my new BCBGeneration Stevie Pumps and a fur BCBGeneration scarf that gave the outfit more of an edge and added the more tonal colors.

Check out BCBG.com to find some of the items I am wearing.

Look of the Day

This is a great way to continue the exotic print into spring, I love the easy dress that is paired back with nude wedges that extends your legs!

Looks of the Day

The looks of the day are brought to you by Rachel Zoe and Nicole Richie.

I wanted to demonstrate that you don't have to be a 5'11 model to be able to wear maxi dresses or maxi skirts!

Don't be afraid, just remember accessorizing is key.

Think about how you want to wear your maxi dress, is it for a casual day at the beach or a night out on the town?

If you want to wear it casually, make sure you get the dress tailored so that it fits perfectly with flat sandals, however if you plan to wear it to work or on a hot date pair it with some heels and maybe a leather jacket like above for some chic edge.
