Style Highlights: Leighton Meester

Leighton Mester is a triple threat. Singer, Actress, and Fashionista. Don't we all love and remember Good Girls Go Bad by Cobra Starship featuring Leighton Meester? I was just listening to that song and I was inspired. Which look of Leighton's is your favorite? Leave your thoughts in the comments!

Leighton looks classic and effortlessly chic--although she kept it a little edgy with a tribal-inspired bib necklace. The geometric detail at the hemline is so unique but she keeps the look simple with patent leather mary-janes. The winged eye makeup is so stunning. I wouldn't mind if she wore that look more often.

Leighton goes fun and care free with this adorable Elie Saab number. It is light, fresh, and so youthful. The textured details on the shoulders and at the hemline beautifully contrast the velvet pumps Leighton picked for the night. She keeps the look youthful by piling her hair on the top of her head with a few tendrils framing her smiling face.

Leighton rocked a white textured look mini and flowered heels. I adore mini-dresses with long sleeves. They're much more fashion and a lot less hooch. Leighton's long loose hair is a stunning contrast with the crisp white color of her outfit.

Leighton always looks her best when she's wearing dark colors with a slight rock-and-roll feel. This Michael Kors gown is the perfect mix of soft and hard. The cut-outs of the leather top show off Leighton's toned body and tiny waist. I adore the ombre affect and the pin-straight style of her hair. Adore!

Celebrities Love Michael Kors

I have been obsessed with Michael Kors lately. I keep blogging about him and his brilliant work because...well, why not? He is a business veteran that deserves a lot of love from fashionistas like myself. And since I can't actually afford any of his work, I'll be content to just blog about it.

Style Highlights: Emma Roberts

Emma Roberts is becoming a fashionista, as well as well known movie star. She hit up shows at both Paris and NY Fashion week and everyone was talking about how effortlessly chic she looked. Which look is your favorite? Please comment below!

This color looks STUNNING against Emma's skin tone. The pleating is perfection and I adore the retro hemline at Emma's mid-calf. The rest of the look is kept simple with black accessories and nothing more. Emma pulled her hair back but left a simple curl of hair to frame her face.

Sparkle and shine! Emma looks stunning in this cut-out Miu Miu mini. She paired the sparkly dress with unexpected pair of shimmery pink pumps. Remind me of Dorothy's shoes from The Wizard of Oz, but in a different color. So bold. So chic. I adore.

Emma looks sophisticated and sweet in this floor-skimming Jenny Packham gown. This look is all about glitter and glam with its sequins embellishments and low-cutting neckline. She continued on the look of metallics with her stunning over sized clutch and with her grey makeup. So beautiful.

Chanel is always in style. Always. And if this is what Spring 2011 looks like, then I am so excited! Pastels are so beautiful and soft. I love the fringe details on the skirt, at the sleeve, and everywhere! In an effort to keep the look fun Emma paired this flawless dress with modern silver pumps. Simple hair and a chunky clutch completes the look. I love!

Thank you for reading. I'm so grateful to all of my readers. They are the best and I will gladly argue with anyone who says otherwise. I'll be back tomorrow. But until then, please check out my second blog. The number of posts I've published is into the double digits now. So exciting!

Top Ten: Michael Kors Fall 2011 RTW

Its hard to believe that thirty-years ago, a nineteen year old Michael Kors started to make his mark on the fashion world. He is well known outside that world due in large part to his role as judge on Project Runway. I love his quick wit and ability to tell it like it is. Plus, the fact that he can design an entire collection that makes me want to run to the store without a care to the damage that will be done to my wallet, doesn't hurt either.

Front Row at Michael Kors + 30 Year Celebration

I'm a huge Michael Kors fan, if I'm being honest. His stunning design aesthetic and his witty personality make it hard for me to hate him. His latest runway show marked his 30th year in the business [that's insane!] and I was inspired to write all about the show [look for it in the near future] and all the happenings behind the scenes and at the after party. We're going to start with the party.

Vanessa Hudgens at New York Fashion Week

Over the coarse of NYFW, Vanessa Hudgens was a very busy girl. She made an appearance at no less than nine runway shows/presentations. It may not seem like a lot but in a world where some ladies make it to one, maybe two, events during the week, Vanessa is a heavy-weight champion.

The lovely star also made an appearance at the Marc Jacobs show [put I didn't really care for her outfit so I decided not to post it]. This girl was extremely busy, going from show to show. I'm impressed with her stamina. What looks are your favorite?

Smell Good for Spring

Hello, blog-o-sphere! Just recently I got an email from a lovely girl named Lizzy. [hi, lizzy!] And she asked me what I would recommend in regards to scents for spring. I will be the first to admit that I haven't smelled every perfume or body spray ever manufactured and also scents are very personal. So these scents might not be for everyone. And there very well could be some scents out there that are just better than the ones I'm suggesting [i just haven't smelled them yet].

This post is meant to give you ideas for the next time you go to the mall. So, these are the scents that I have found myself been reaching for over and over again as the days start to get warmer and the birds have returned to the tree by my window. [yay, birds!] 

The first scent I have been loving is Victoria's Secret's Live Pink Sheer Fragrance Mist. I couldn't find it on the website but I know that they still carry this product in stores. I'm really horrible at describing smells but here I go. To me, this scent is soft, fresh, and light. Maybe even a hint of fruit-i-ness? I don't think its floral-y but whenever I spray this on myself it makes me think of meadows. Like the one in Twilight. That's a little random and even I don't fully understand why but that's what I think. :)

The next scent I love is Michael Kors' Very Hollywood. I have the 1.7 ounces bottle, if you were wondering. My sister actually got this for me for Christmas because we went to the perfume counter and she remembered that I liked the scent. [aww...cute sister!] But the Michael Kors website says this perfume is made up of mandarin and iced bergamot [whatever that last thing is] with hints of gardenia. I would describe it as darker than Live Pink and is more mature. I think of the sea when I smell it, if that helps at all.

Last, but not least, is Victoria's Secret's Girl's Night Sheer Fragrance. This I also got for Christmas. [maybe people are trying to tell me something...] I only kid. But it has quickly become a favorite. It's made with the scents of peonies and water lilies. I would describe it as light but it is also more...energetic than the other two. I don't think of anything when I smell this one--I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

One honorable mention not included in the pictures [because its technically my sister's and i steal spritz of it behind her back. shhh...and she refused to let me take it] is Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb. Love. This. Scent. It is a perfect all year round perfume. It is light and flowery. Very subtle but packs a huge impact at the same time. [yay, for oxymorons!]. Now this scent is very, very price-y. So it might not be the most practical suggestions but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

What is your favorite spring/summer scents?
