6 Snow Boots to Get Now

6 Snow Boots To Get Now

I'm going to piggy back off of what Jade Frampton told me about to invest in for the winter, which are Sorel Snow Boots. Yes Sorel has some amazing boots and but there's other brands that are just as fashionable and utilitarian for the purpose. As we are middle of #Blizzard2015 or Winter Storm Juno, now is the great time to get snow boots that will combat the slushy and slippery streets.

Stay warm everyone!

Inspected Trend: Blue Black

Inspected Trend from the Pre-Fall 2015 Collection: KLS Kimora Lee Simmons, Milly, Versace 

I'm not going to sugar coat this, but blue/black is my favorite color combination. It was a pleasant surprise seeing this combo quite a few times during the pre-Fall 2015 collections. Whether it's a cobalt blue or navy blue this is a classic and intuitive pairing that make it's easy head to the office or out on the town.

Do you like the blue black combination?

Back to Basics: Fisherman Sweater

Back to Basics: Fisherman Sweater

If you didn't know, there's a back story on the very popular fisherman sweater. People have been getting cozy in their fisherman sweaters for years and this style is definitely a staple during the Winter season. The fisherman sweater also known as the Aran sweater is noticeable because of the multiple cable and stitch patterns. Some say that the fisherman sweater originated on the Aran Island and the unique stitches was used to distinguished fishermen's bodies that was found at sea. However one of the main functionality that has remain constant throughout the history, is to keep you warm. While the temps continue to drop, I found some fisherman sweaters that will keep you toasty and comfy for the rest of the season.

Inspected Trend: Put A Belt On It

Inspected Trend: Put A Belt On It

I love it when a belt can cinched anything together. During the Spring '15 shows, brands as BCBG Max Azria belted a long caftan dress which gave a slight emphasis on the waist. While Marni and Edun opted for a more thicker obi belt style. Needless to say, this trend shows a creative way to wrap a belt around the waist.
