The Year In Review...My Best Dressed of 2013

It's been a great year for fashion this year, with many hits and just as many misses, and as we approach the end of the year I thought it only fitting to give my thoughts on who I think some of the best dressed celebs were for the year.  So with that said, here are my 5 top picks.  To all my readers out there, I hope you have a safe and happy new year's eve and a wonderful 2014.  Also, please continue checking in with me to read what new fabulous trends we'll have in 2014!


Diane Kruger -  Diane is no stranger to best dressed lists and can change her look for any occasion, going from elegant and chic to trendy and edgy.  Check out some of her fabulous looks this year.




Cate Blanchett - Cate has always been one of my all-time favorite fashionistas.  Not only is she an incredibly talented actress, she takes fashion to another level, wearing pieces that look like pieces of art.
She is one of a kind.




Kerry Washington - Kerry has emerged as 'the one to watch' this year, showing up at various events looking quite the fashionista of the moment.  Enjoying the success of her show Scandal, she is also enjoying being the fashion darling of the moment.




Sandra Bullock - let's hear it for this 49 year old!  Sandra has made quite a comeback this year, not only in the movies, but she seems to have had a little 'do-over'.  With a new stylist to help her make the right choices for a woman of a certain age, she looks better and sexier than ever, proving that you can look good at any age!




Jennifer Lawrence - After nabbing the best actress academy award this year for her amazing role in Silver Linings Playbook, all eyes have been on this young star.  She hasn't disappointed, and has continued to be likable and down-to-earth, as well as fashionable and relatable at the same time.  She recently chopped off her long golden locks in favor of a short, edgy pixie cut which she wears well.  What else can I say?  I just love her!

Phillip Lim Collection for Target

After much anticipation, if not the most anticipated collaborations of the season, finally Phillip Lim's capsule collection for Target will be unveiled this Sunday, September 15th.

The designer, known for his cool contemporary wear with feminine shapes and modern patterns, has created a collection that embodies his aesthetic - and even features pieces that closely resemble those on his 3.1 Phillip Lim runway collection.

His collection for Target was inspired by the concept of "night to day".  He wanted to create a collection of chic and versatile pieces that modern women and men can wear on the go while remaining effortlessly chic.

Take a peek at some of the pieces from this hugely anticipated collection, and get to Target early on Sunday if you want to have a chance at snagging some of them!

Brenna's Style Makeover

Today I had a great time working with the lovely Brenna, who contacted me saying she wanted a style makeover so that she would be able to put different outfits together for various occasions/event, including dressy for a wedding & the Kentucky Derby (an event she is planning to attend next year), relaxed for weekends, sassy for a night out with the girls, and something for Fall.  Upon meeting Brenna what became immediately apparent is that my job would be incredibly easy, as she is stunningly beautiful, has a great figure, and was more than willing to try new things.  We put together a number of different looks for her, and I think you'll agree upon seeing these photos of her, she looks amazing!  She confessed to having a love of hats, so we put together a couple of outfits with hats so that she could choose something for the Kentucky Derby, and she loved them!  Take a look at what we did today - and thank you Brenna for making my job such fun and so easy!  It was a pleasure working with you!




This first look we put together was for a wedding that she is attending in a couple of weeks.  The dress is from White House Black Market - a simple strapless sheath, with a pretty floral print in lavender and pinks.  These colors worked great with Brenna's dark coloring.  I added a collar necklace to add some drama, and white strappy heels.  What a knockout!



This look was one of the outfits for the Kentucky Derby event.  I put her in a black & white bustier (again from WHBM), and a black pencil skirt.  I added the flower detail belt and red heels for a pop of color.  She loved this black hat, and looked amazing in it!



This outfit was a more relaxed, casual look for weekends.  I put a red peplum skirt with white cami, white fitted jacket, and a red infinity scarf that had some sequins on it for a touch of pizzazz!  The white flat sandal was perfect for this look.


This was one of my personal favorite looks on Brenna.  She wanted something fun and sassy for a night out with the girls, and I thought this was perfect.  A black pair of shorts with this fun surplus top from Arden B, and I added lots of strings of pearls for a fun and dramatic accessory.  I also gave her a youthful side ponytail for this look.  Beautiful!


This was one of our relaxed weekend looks for fall.  A pair of dark denim jeans, with a simple dark navy cami, a tan leather jacket, a pair of sassy tan studded gladiator sandals, and a scarf to finish off the look.  I put her hair in a messy top-knot to add some fun.


Another look for the Kentucky Derby.  A blue lace dress, a silver skinny belt, a white jacket, white wedges and a lovely white hat.  How cute does she look in this!


Our second look for fall consisted of this simple black-shirt dress, wide tan leather belt, tan leather boots and cream lace scarf.  Adorable!


Our final look was another dressy ensemble for a wedding or more formal event.  This is a black chiffon jumpsuit with sheer pleated bottoms, paired with a sheer shrug with deep sequined cuff, and of course I had to add the pearls for that extra wow factor!  Again, another hit!
