[Five Favorite Fashion Trends]

   

1. Color blocking

Hottest colors being tangerine, fuschia, and purple. More about color blocking here 

2. Feminine pastels

Soft pinks and teals - paired with lace and nude colored pieces 

3. Denim

Vests, jackets, and even denim on denim has become popular lately. And guess what? Kate Bosworth is launching a new denim collection. 

4. Peplum

High waisted peplum skirts are extremely flattering. I found one at Pull and Bear in Ireland, and it's my absolute favorite piece of clothing. More about peplum here

5. Bright colored skinny pants

J Crew has a quality new selection of unique colors to choose from. Best worn with heels in my opinion. 

[The Kennedys]

Jordan and I started our new show, The Kennedy's last night. After only two episodes we are already hooked. I'm learning new things about the Kennedy family while being inspired by Jackie (played by Katie Holmes) and her 1960's style. 

Jackie colors: pink, yellow, red, ivory

Jackie's icon: Audrey Hepburn

Jackie's designer of choice: Hubert de Givenchy

Jackie staples: 

pillbox hat

pearls

white gloves

sleeveless dresses

high waisted trousers 

"Often sketching designs for her clothing as First Lady, Jacqueline Kennedy fashion immediately drew international attention; more than any other First Ladies her style was copied by commercial manufacturers and a large segment of young women."
