High Style For Little Munchkins

I've missed you!  It's been months since I posted and my regular dose of style dreaming has been sadly absent from my days.  I need a fix of high-fashion, glamorous eye candy and fanciful treasures.  But... I am still very much in the trenches of baby-land so instead of daydreaming about a new pair of red-soled summer wedges I bring you kid's wear.  Not your everyday Garanimlas, these are straight off the teeny tiny runway.

If you invest in one statement piece this Fall make it an accessory in Leopard. Seen all over the Fall/Winter runways, this print is the new neutral and it is definitely here to stay. Whether you spend $30 or $3000 there are a ton of options available. Here are some of my favorites...

These cuffs from Mango are the perfect finishing touch to day or night dressing.

I am obsessed with this Albertus Swanepoel for J. Crew Fedora - a must for my NYC uniform!

Pair these Stella McCartney Satin Leopard Print Wedges with grey skinny jeans and a ladylike silk blouse.

I'd wear this Lanvin Mini Pop Leopard Print Bag with everything. The proportions are perfect.

Not for the faint of heart but think of how amazing these Wolford Leo Stay-Ups would look with an oversized chunky knit cardigan (worn as dress) and black booties.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this we are owls snow leopard scarf.

Wear this J Crew Wide Calf Hair Belt over an unbuttoned cardigan, skinny black pants and platform heels.

Sexy | Shiny | Sharp

I'm in the middle of planning Fall travel and can't stop thinking about monogrammed luggage, sexy knits, sharp boots, structured wool day dresses, and a shiny new cocktail dress. Yum.

I was so excited when “The Style Collective” asked me to be a guest on their blog. However, I had no idea what to write about and my A.D.D took over. I realized there is so much to talk about and too many things I love about fashion, travel and anything purely creative! So I am thankful to the girls for letting me share a small part of my passion. TRAVEL...

In anticipation and preparation for my trip to Brazil and Argentina I wanted to share some of the essentials I will take on my trip.

First, my travel bag...
These Louis Vuitton pieces would be a dream...



On the plane...
Current Elliot destructed Jeans, an Alexander Wang tee, an over sized yummy Vince cardigan, comfy TOMS shoes, a good book and my I phone with the new People/Star magazine applications.

In Argentina...
It's spring, and we are visiting Buenos Aires and beaches in Uruguay for six days. It's warm during the day and cool at night, so I am packing easy silhouettes to wear with heels or some killer vintage boots I just bought at the Pasadena flea market.

In Brazil...
I imagine everyone looks like Giselle Bunchen. So hopefully I can find a way to look somewhat cute!


Other than that, I figure its pretty simple... Salinas, Salinas, Salinas. I will be shopping for more of these. I'm obsessed.

Also loving this new romper from Stella McCartney.



For a fabulous day drinking Caprinha's by the beach after a yoga class, shopping and an acai bowl, I will be packing this fun Stella dress... It seems so perfect for Rio!


There is so much more to put in my travel bag, but I have to leave room for all the shopping!!! Keep you posted.

Xoxo, Tiana
