Michelle Obama’s Narciso Rodriguez Dress at Last Night’s State of The Union Address

13eveningss-slide-ZVXC-facebookJumboSo, like it or not, Barack Obama is now in his last year of office and delivered his final State of The Union address last night. While you might debate about the politics, you must admit (again) that Michelle Obama is one of the fiercest first ladies we’ve ever had. I mean, she is a huge fashion force and well, did you see her marigold Narciso Rodriguez dress last night?

It’s the perfect color for a mid-winter pick me up and it is a really versatile dress. I mean, you could really wear that to an office meeting, church or even brunch.

The dress is basically sold out everywhere but check out similar Narciso Rodriguez dresses here.

Two Gorgeous Dresses for The Holiday Season

Happy Holidays everyone! I hope you’re feeling festive and winding down your work year to enjoy the Holiday. It’s that time of the year. Party after party. I found the perfect holiday dresses from Preen by Thornton Bregazzi and Proenza Schouler. They are fabulous for the season.

Marc Jacobs Fall/Winter Hot Pants

marc jacobs hot pantsBy now, you’ve probably heard that we are experiencing an extremely warm winter here in New York. It’s been about 65 degrees and I am praying that it stays that way! In honor of this beautiful weather, I decided to try those impractical-looking hot pants you’ve seen on the runway for the fall/winter? I first spotted them in Marc Jacob’s Fall 2013 fashion show (with the giant sun below) and thought they were fabulous but in that snow, I just didn’t see it happening.

Well, I love these Marc Jacobs hot pants and you can pair them with those see-through skirts to make a bold statement. Not for the faint of heart but absolutely fabulous.
