Spring has sprung and it’s time to celebrate! As I peruse my closet, I wonder what I really wore last spring. I’m definitely ready for a whole new, fancy wardrobe and I hope you are too. I took the liberty of finding some pieces that inspire me, and I that I think you’ll love as well. The pastel colors are just perfect for the season. I’m also loving bright brilliant colors as well as intricate prints. I have an accessory obsession, so you’ll find a few fun pieces to play with. Happy shopping, Beauties! xx
Pop. Clink. Fizz! We are poppin’ bottles and celebrating 2 years since the launch of Sleepless in Sequins today! Oh, what a two years it’s been. With hundreds of styles featured, numerous events supporting our favorite brands, runway shows, and the gift of working with my very best friend and husband, I feel lucky for the experiences we’ve shared over the past two years.
Do you have a favorite outfit or style you wear on repeat? Mine is Yumi Kim’s Liz Romper. Thankfully for me, Yumi Kim makes this style in a million different gorgeous prints. So no, I don’t exactly wear one romper on repeat. I have a closetful of Liz Rompers to choose from. Believe me when I tell you, that you’ll fall in love with this style and will buy every single print as well.
While I tend to be the queen of prints, there’s something to be said for a truly classic, chic look using solid colors. I love the elegance and sophistication of a pure white dress. It is a clean look which is truly flattering on anyone. Neutral colors are always on trend for spring, and they remind me of a blank canvas. A beautiful, simple silhouette draws attention to a woman’s face, and also leaves room to play with accessories. The Robe Remerciement Dress by Sandro Paris fits the body perfectly, and has an interesting, sheer geometric detail. I also love the open detail in the back. Sandro Paris has some incredibly stunning pieces in their Spring collection.
We are celebrating one year, since the launch of Sleepless in Sequins. Our party was planned, but now, what to wear? This is an important occasion for us, and I wanted to choose a very special outfit. I came upon the most gorgeous Alice and Olivia, sequin Taryn Dress at Saks Fifth Avenue. It is one of the most gorgeous dresses I’ve ever owned. Shades of blue are on trend for spring, so this was perfect. As I tried the dress on at Saks, I explained our celebration to the sales women. They were so sweet, helpful and just as excited as I was about our photo shoot.
It has officially been one year since the launch of Sleepless in Sequins. We created our site through a combined love for design, style, and photography. Meet the man behind the camera, Grant Friedman. He is my husband, photographer, and best friend. Together we create style shoots, attend fashion events, and runway shows. He challenges me, and inspires me to create every day. Sleepless in Sequins has become our hobby, our love, and our direct connection with the fashion and photography industries.
I was so excited for our trip to Miami, I could hardly wait. We stayed at the gorgeous Fontainebleau resort in Miami Beach. A girls’ trip, in the sunshine was just what I needed.
We’ve had quite the winter in New York City this year. The continuous snowfall, left me longing for some sunshine and warmer weather. A Florida getaway to visit my sister, was the perfect cure for my winter blues. Anxious to ditch my winter sweaters, I set out on a search to find the perfect resort outfits for my trip.
Soho is one of my favorite shopping destinations in New York City. It has a great combination of designer stores and lovely boutiques. There are charming coffee shops and trendy restaurants around every corner, if you need a break from your retail therapy. My shopping trip to Soho was the perfect opportunity to wear my new Yumi Kim, Hawaiian print romper, which I found at Wink NYC, one my favorite boutiques in the city. I love all of Yumi Kim’s styles, but above all, I adore her gorgeous, vibrant prints.
On a sunny afternoon, I decided to take a walk through the East Village. The East Village has a quirky mix of qualities. You’ll find walls of graffiti, vintage shops, dive bars, as well some of New York’s swankiest restaurants. The East Village is where the hipster meets the trend setter. I love this about New York City. I find a different adventure in every neighborhood.
