POSHEstyle: Blushing Nudes + Christian Paul Watch

Spring is in the air and we can feel Summer coming - with such sweet anticipation! But, though the season brings with it blooming beauties and clearer skies, it's also that time of the year for April showers and erratic temperatures - so don't put away all your warmer pieces just yet! 

That's what makes this Jessica Simpson trench coat so ideal - it gives an extra layer of warmth without the bulk and the pastel color is trend bullseye. 

Monochromatic nudes and blush tones are another "YES" this season. The all-over soft tones create big impact without being over-the-top. I'm obsessed with this BCBG rose gold skinny pants - the glitter effect makes it festive for night time fun, but it's subdued enough for daytime wear.  

L'amour is a gift - that's the truth - just one of the many reasons I am in love with Le Motto brand. The line of motivational and inspiring messages on basics, is super chic and classy. Just beware... you'll find it hard to choose which one - so be prepared to snatch a few. 

If you keep up with the blog, you've seen this Luana Italy satchel, but I've been living in it all Spring - with plans to do the same all summer. It's just such a perfect size for day-to-night and it's stunning! 

I saved my favorite part of this look for last. My ultimate obsession is not shoes or bags...it's watches. So, you can image my excitement when I received this beautiful marble and rose gold timepiece from Christian Paul Watches. The brand is out of Australia and the entire line is to die for. The chic combos and styles are perfect for everyday wear, and stylish enough to dress up all fancy. Another added to the collection makes me a happy gal :)

POSHEstyle: Pretty in Pink

So true story - my alias during high school was "Pinky" - no, not because of any intense infatuation with the color, but because I played competitive tennis and would get really pink in the face from being out in the sun constantly. Ironically, I have grown to love every shade of pink - it's flirty, feminine and fun - what more could a girl ask for?!

This pretty little pink dress from H&M got me super excited - not only is it Spring/Summer perfection - it was on sale for a steal at $29.99. Nevermind that my size was sold out, I wasn't about to leave it, so I took the next size up and viola - it works! 

The great thing about this silhouette is that it's not cut to hug the body, so wearing it a little loose doesn't look ill-fitting or sloppy. It would be interesting to see what my actual size fits like but I feel so easy, breezy, beautiful in this dress that it really doesn't matter :) 

As a designer, I've always had a keen focus on back details - I find an open back one of the most alluring cut on a woman. These criss-cross straps form a delicate pattern that is soft and sensual. 

I paired the dress with a pop of red for a color contrast - wearing my all-time favorite pair of Christian Louboutin pumps. A nude Kate Spade tote was then the perfect neutral, as it did not detract from the color block pairing. 

Marble oversized Versace sunglasses added an eclectic element to the look, and minimal jewelry - a pair of diamond studs and a diamond ring - kept the dress the focal point. 

Spring calls for a light coats, and I snatched this H&M at the sale for $19.99 (down from $69.99) - I was shocked too! The fresh cream color is a great neutral for springs' bright colors and floral prints, the cut is structured and form flattering, and the aztec belt adds definition to the waist and an interesting detail.

POSHEstyle: The Pleated Skirt + Karl Who? Sweatshirt

The accordion pleated skirt is back with a vengeance this spring - from maxi to mini - this look is being seen all over the racks and is a must this season.  

This off-white Zara pleated skirt is the perfect way to bring some leather into spring. The color is light and airy; the length is classy and chic; and the "leather meets pleats" is a good balance of timeless and modern. 

Now, who says you can't wear a sweatshirt to work or to drinks...even to dinner?! Well, I would be comfortable (literally) wearing this outfit in any of those settings. The high-fashion style of the Karl Who? sweatshirt makes it an easily transitional piece, and its sports-luxe look is very on trend. I've team up with the creators once again to offer a 20% discount with code POSHE20 at checkout - so head over to the site shopsocialtte.com to get this and other super chic styles ;) 

You can never go wrong with a classic, sleek Prada bag for work, it denotes "boss-lady" and usually means business. It also works equally well as a day bag with jeans and a t-shirt for that chic, effortless style. A timeless choice!

As Marilyn Monroe said - "Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world." These Christian Louboutin So Kate pumps definitely make me feel like I have superpowers every time I put them on. A red pair of pumps will do wonders in spicing up your closet, and adding a touch of va-va-voom to any look. 

And, not to forget it's all in the details! I keep my accessories standard for the most part, but have fun with it if that's your style. For this look, I paired a cool pair of RayBan wayfarers, my Hermes watch and a few vintage rings.

POSHEstyle: NYFW - Shades of Love

Valentine's Day is suppose to be all warm and fuzzy, right? Well, in NYC this past one was cold and icy! Nonetheless, it is all about what's on the outside, and the record low chilly temperatures didn't stop the heat from turning up for many ;) I spent my day doing something that I LOVE...getting lost in next season's collections and falling madly in love with a few hot thangs. 

This red and plum combo had me feeling all kinds of "lovie-dovie" - too bad I didn't exactly have a special someone to be all mushy with -  but I did get some gorgeous roses from an admirer, and they were a warm surprise after a frigid day. I'm a big romantic, and though it may sound cliche, I love the idea of so much love floating in the air :)

A long maxi skirt with an oversized sweater is one of the chicest combos a woman can wear. It's feminine and effortless, and can work casually with flats or sneakers, or dressed up with heels. Pleats have been a big trend for fall/winter, and so has this maroon/burgundy color, so it's double touch point with this beauty from Anthropologie. 

A red/burgundy oversized Missoni sweater broke the monotone color when layered with this faux leather moto jacket from Hou5e Boutique. If you don't own a moto jacket as yet, it's a must for every closet - trust it opens a world of style possibilities. You can wear anything, add a moto jacket and it's instantly cool. 

I love when shoes are a work of art and these Monika Chiang mohawk pumps are no disappointment. The color, gold accents and unique feature make it quite a standout. Other final details to my NYFW "Shades of Love" look included a Mansur Gavriel coin purse that doubles as a clutch - now that's something that makes my heart smile :)

POSHEstyle: Herringbone & Chandrah Beads

It's the first week of 2016 and I'm starting the year off with a "go BIG or go HOME" attitude, and this outfit is the definition of a woman who is strong, confident, determined and ready to "get sh*t done!" 

Winter has officially made its appearance. January is off to a chilly start so layers on top of layers are a must. My cold season strategy is to not bulk up, but rather layer smart. I don't own a down or poofy jacket - I invest in warm fabrications like wool and cashmere. This J. Crew jacket is one such piece. Its structured clean lines are minimal and modern, the long length provides extra coverage, and the deep pockets keep blisters away. 

Herringbone is just one of those patterns that has a classic presence, it may be silent at times or trending at others - a big trend for 2015 - but never out of style. I bought this Zara turtle neck jacket on Black Friday, so it was a score.  I love when I find a piece and get super excited about all its styling possibilities and this jacket certainly gave me the jitters. 

I kept the outfit in a monotone grey on grey - my most worn shade this fall. Layering a turtleneck from Zara under the jacket for added protection around my neck, and pairing denim from Forever21.

One of my "resolution" for 2016 is to do more yoga and mediation. Living in a fast pace city like New York, it's rare that you slow down and balance yourself - it also doesn't help that I'm a gemini whose mind is always going, and who wants to do a million things at once. I received this Chandrah bracelet during the Christmas, and it's the perfect reminder that I need to make more effort to train my mind to be calmer, and more focus, so I can reach my optimal potential.  

I finished the look with my Ferragamo aviators, Chanel J12 watch, Tiffany & Co ID bracelet and these killer thigh high boots by Monika Chiang that screams "I mean business!"
