India!!!

It seems almost surreal now, but just a week ago I was still in incredible India, getting acquainted with the sights, sounds, smells, and tastes. Though I admit I often missed the convenience of my home, it was an unparalleled experience and I'm looking forward to going back and seeing more.

Here are just some of the places I got to see on my trip.

Fashion Matches: Best Finds From This Week's New Arrivals

So I know I've been away, but I have a very good reason. I was in India!!! It was an awesome vacation and I'll post up some pics later this week. However, lets get to the clothes :) I'm still in love with All Saints, and Marc Jacobs has an adorable dress for spring as usual. For easy style there's also a striped dress and a very cute tank.

There's nothing simpler than putting on this striped dress by Eight Sixty for day or dressed up for night with some jewelry and a blazer. It's super sexy, and though I see myself wearing it with flats it'd look fantastic with heels as well.


I'm a sucker for flower petals on shirts, and this is a great example of one. Unlike others I've seen this one is casual, perfect for a weekend with a pair of jeans.


I have a Marc by Marc Jacobs dress that I've been wearing for years and it always makes me feel girly and pretty, and this one has the potential of being the same. It comes in an vanilla color as well, but I like the statement making red. The shape is flattering on all figures.


I still love All Saints for the interesting shapes that it brings to its clothes. This top has a cowl neck, but what's unexpected is the huge plaid print.

Awesome Brand Alert: AllSaints!

Ever since I saw a photo of Halle Berry cool and casual in a great sweater dress, I vowed to find out where she found it. Turns out she got it at AllSaints, a British brand that is making it's way stateside. So far there's a store in LA, and on my recent trip to Miami I discovered there's a store on Lincoln Road. As soon as I walked into the store I knew it was meant to be. Great sweater dresses were just the beginning, I fell in love with almost all their dresses and a coat that had a bustle!

Luckily I went into AllSaints first day of my trip in freezing Miami, I was wearing this sweater the rest of the trip.



Love the play on volume with these two dresses! The photo of the Limski dress is a bit dark, but it's actually plaid.


Limski dress $145 and Amka dress $225

Step into the world of Sherlock Holmes in this bustle coat :)



Alpha coat $390

If you love this stuff as much as I do, you can also buy it online. We were also told two stores are opening in NYC on May 1, one in Soho and one midtown. The sizes are British, a 6 is a US 2, and so on.
