I always have fun finding similar trends between fashion and home furnishings. Some people probably think that these two fields are very different from one another, but in reality, they really aren’t. In my book, designers are designers. Whether their specialty is clothing or interior, they all have great creative eyes that always seem to correspond with each other. I don’t know if you all remember that I told you that mixed prints are very in this fashion season. It seems that this is also the case in interior design. From colorful poufs and pillows, to shoes and dresses, be resourceful with what you have, and mix what you got! Have fun and don’t think that you are going too overboard, because when it comes to mixing, you can’t go wrong.

This season try to let more sides of yourself show by stepping up  your wardrobe. All of you ladies out there, play with different garments inspired by sexy lingerie and made  with lace. I know this may seem a little extreme, but who says you can’t feel as sexy out and about during the day as you do in the bedroom? That’s right, flaunt what you got girls, because we only get to live once! Use this season as an excuse to try something out of the box.

Don’t feel like you have to splurge when you can look this good for under $100.

I can always count on my wonderful Aunt Elbie to send me all of the new amazing products that are out there. She works for Chanel make-up so whenever I see something that catches my eye, I always send her a quick email to see if she can send me anything. I received my new favorite nail polish: Chanel’s Nouvelle Vague. It is the perfect pastel color and great for Spring. I am urging all of you to try it this sunny season, because it will give your outfit just a tiny splash of color that will make you stand out from the crowd.

Brigitte Bardot is one of the most beautiful woman alive… in my book at least. If any of you don’t know who she is, she is a former French actress, model, and singer. Her style is unforgettable, and lately, I have been very inspired by her.

Sex & The City 2 is only weeks away, and I can’t get it off my mind! I have looked at pictures on set, have watched the trailers multiple times, and still haven’t gotten my fix. I think most girls’ dream is to live a day in the life of the unforgettable, Carrie Bradshaw.

This morning when I did my diamond in the rough post, I talked about what you could pair a denim jacket with. I wanted all of you to get a visual, so I made a collage for you all to see. Enjoy!

As everyone knows, yesterday was Mother’s Day. I must say, that my mom and I had a fabulous day. We started off by going to Borders, walked over to our manicure and pedicure appointments at the Polished Lounge, then walked next door to our reservation at Dartealing, for afternoon tea. Could our day get any better? Afternoon tea always gets you in the mood to dress up. Sadly, we didn’t put on any big dresses, but if we did, this is what I would have thrown together. I hope all of you mothers out there had a great day!

A trend that is going around this Spring season is wearing socks with sandals of any sort. I know, I know, you all are probably thinking what the heck, that is definitely not in style. Think again, because it for sure is. We saw it on the runway for Spring 2010, and it is slowly starting to hit the city streets. What do you all think? Do you love it or hate it? I happen to love it, but you have to be careful with how you put your full ensemble together.

Inspiration of the day: “Beauty is only skin deep. I think what’s really important is finding a balance of mind, body and spirit. Somebody said to me not too long ago, ‘Until you’re twenty, you have the face you are born with, and after that you have the face you deserve’, and I really loved that – the idea that you wear who you are on your face.”- Jennifer Lopez
