Calliope Spring 2013 Campaign
Every spring I’m suddenly in love with everything girly, soft and pretty. It’s like the sun comes out and I’m not quite as enamored with spikes and leather anymore (though of course, I end up wearing way more black than is normal throughout the summer). It’s not likely that my wardrobe is ever going to become infused with soft baby pinks, but I am all about crisp white pieces, beachy long hair and glowy skin. Get ready for spring!

Maison Michel Yoko Gold-Tone Cat-Ear Headband $405
We LOVE kitties and anything kitty-like. Our friend Eamonn got a black cat, and we’re extremely jealous. He flops around lazily and then licks your hand when you start to pet him. When we saw this cute kitty ear headband, we thought it was a great spring accessory—gold statement jewelry is definitely in and kitties have never been so in (if I ever met Grumpy Cat, I think I would scream like a Beleiber). Kitty ears with a cute summer dress? How PURRRRFECT.

J. Crew Collection No. 2 Pencil Skirt $279.99 (Orig. $395), Marni Printed T-Shirt $270, Helmut Kinetic Jersey T-Shirt $91, Erdem Frida Floral Print Skirt $1140, Dolce & Gabanna Stripe Jacquard Pencil Skirt $782, Altuzarra Tiger Ikat-Print Pencil Skirt $1835.
Pencil skirts + t-shirts. Is there really a better combo for summer? I feel like it’s super Jenna Lyons, J.Crew catalog styling to throw together a casual, cotton tee with a prim and proper pencil skirt. It’s really the perfect outfit for work, especially paired with a basic pump. I’m especially loving the mix of a plain or graphic tee with a crazy, super printed pencil skirt. I’m definitely on the lookout for the perfect pencil skirts to round out my spring/summer wardrobe!

As a’90s child, I always wore the typical multi-colored swirled tie-dye t-shirts. I loved tie dye arts and crafts days too, but I was never really that good at DIYing them…I’d usually get too over enthusiastic about the process and end up with a mess of colors and patterns. Apparently this love never went away, as I find myself as an adult collecting Proenza Schouler tie dye shirts. This green tank caught my eye a long time ago, so when I found it at the Proenza Schouler sample sale a few weeks back, I had to have it. I bought it a size too big simply because they were out of my size, but I ended up loving the oversized look with the tank tucked into black skinny jeans. I can’t wait to rock the tie dye all summer!

Reed Krakoff Gym Bag, c/o GiGi New York Mini iPad Case.
Spring is for fun colorful bags, flowers, techie goods, crazy shoes, and wacky scarves! Now that I’m trying to inject more color into my wardrobe, I thought I’d start with a cute monogrammed mint green iPad case. GiGi New York makes the best techie accessories—python-embossed, super chic. I guess I didn’t really stop with the monograms there—my new coral red Reed Krakoff Gym Bag (yes—it’s called a gym bag, as if anyone would actually take this to the gym!) has matching hangtags with my initials. I’ve also become obsessed with printed scarves… they keep me warm in my super air-conditioned office and add some fun to my daily outfits. Peter Pilotto tropical flowers with my new cobalt blue pants? That works like none other! On a beauty note, my Tom Ford lipstick collection has grown to include some ultra bright reds—my latest addition is “Wild Ginger.” Blue for the nails (of course!), but lighter as the season grows warmer… I’ve temporarily abandoned my cobalt blue YSL for an old Thakoon for NARS color. I went over to Renee’s the other day and saw she did the same! Guess blog buddies always think alike…
