Kaleidoscopey Dress

As I've mentioned before, kaleidoscope prints are the print to have for spring! SO of course I come across this dress and immediately covet - alas it's a pricy $375 at Wasteland.

Anna Sui for Hush Puppies Boots

I didn't know Anna Sui did a collaboration with Hush Puppies. These boots look nice and toasty and so chic in dark purple! Buy at Endless for $145.

Label to Watch: NAHM

Designed by Nary Manivong and Alexandria Hilfiger (yes, THOSE Hilfigers) NAHM is definitely an up-and-coming brand you should be watching!

Debuting last year, they're completely reinvented and revitalized the concept of the shirt dress! Love their delicate white dresses and jazzy, Asian prints for spring, which were mixed artfully! There's no doubt in my mind that their next collection will have buyers tongues wagging - thank god because right now you can only buy the clothes at A Man and A Woman in NYC and The SHop at Bluebird in London, and Dubai and Tokyo. YES, I now have a shopping goal for my trip to Japan in April! :D

Vintage Round Shouldered Coat

If this was in my price range right now I would snap it up in a heartbeat for NYFW! Love the rounded shoulders, which are coming into style but really hard to search for, and the stripes! Buy at Urban Outfitters for $259 - if only I didn't have bills to pay!

A Spring Color Story

I know winter will probably get worst for most of us before it starts getting springlike outside, but I can't help but start dreaming of warm weather colors! Like last spring I'm all about the icy pastel, this season mixed with sheer grey pieces!

Plaid Blanket Cardigan

Loving the oversized plaid print on this blanket cardigan!! Looks super cozy but chic enough to belt and wear out too! Perfect for days like today where you couldn't get dressed because they weren't your PJs... or maybe that was just me :P Buy at Gap for the sale price of $60. Ooo, get an extra 30% off sale items with the code GAPFUN before 1/27 too!

Skinny Lace Print Pants

Not all print pants have to be in your face "fashion ugly" to be chic! This pair is pretty subtle but definitely way more fab than a regular pair of black pants. Best of all, they're just $40 at Mikkat Market!

Moo Clutch

I don't really like to carry clutches, but I can't deny how fabulous they look! This cow clutch is unique in a very amaze way - definitely a head turner! If only it wasn't $440 at Goldyn... all the fun items are super expensive!

January '12 CapFABB Meetup

Last night I went out to the January CapFABB meet-up at Madewell in Georgetown! Of course it was important to dress chicly, but I didn't want to stress too much about it since I had so many NYFW outfits to plan! So I hadn't planned on taking a picture of my look, but after wearing it all day at work it really grew on me and I might as well post one shot!

I'm wearing: Rag & Bone chambray shirt and printed leggings (the Mr called these pants "man repellent" ha), blazer from Urban Outfitters, red tank from Banana Republic, turban from ASOS, Foley + Corinna city tote, Robert Clergerie boots. Jewelry includes vintage Gucci watch, Juicy Couture leather wrap bracelet and chain bracelet, tiger print and rhinestone bracelets from CUSP, and my beloved Mockingjay pin!

Of course, my fellow CapFABB ladies all looked super stylish!

Maxi skirts were out in full force! And I love Marta's clutch and fuzzy accessories and Alina's glasses and belt!

Lacey of A Lacey Perspective rocked a seriously killer printed suit!

Janice of Facon Magazine looked winter chic - loving the palette, especially the white pants! And that's a great coat! Speaking of..

CapFABB-ers have some killer outerwear!! Never underestimate the importance of a stand-out coat for winter!

Temporary Lip Tattoos

Well this is an interesting idea! Glittery temporary lip tattoos would certainly stay on for long periods, though I've never tried one myself. I think I should test these out, they're only $7 for a pack of three at Sephora and come in pink, red, gold, silver and blue!
