Fantasy Closet {That Shade of Green}

While pulling out for a shoot yesterday, I spied a dominating color in ZARA. That minty fresh shade of green. It's pretty, subtle, and sweet. To bring the saccharine a notch lower, I like to pair it with a jolting dose of electric blue.

Ikat Monday

I'm toning down the roaring this season by storing the leopards to give room to this more effervescent print.

Fantasy Closet {Sophisticated Boho}

I am definitely feeling the 70's vibe at the Spring Summer 2011 runways. I wasn't fortunate enough to witness that period first hand but I sure love going back to its fashion then.

Here are some runway looks referenced from the era that's making waves this season.

L-R: Tory Burch, Derek Lam, Etro

L-R: Marc Jacobs, Salvatore Ferragamo, Elie Tahari
