CURRENT OBSESSIONS | REBECCA MINKOFF MINI LOVE KNOT

(Rebecca Minkoff Mini Love Knot - StefaniBags.com, Asos spike stretch bracelet, cute ones here & here, Free People cabletown pullover, Butter London nail polish in cheecky chops)

If you read my blog on regular basis, you know how much I love Rebecca Minkoff Bags. Every season I get super excited in anticipation of a new collection, like a little kid in a candy store:) This particular one, is a current fave. I simply adore the mix of a classic shape and edgy studding. I got it for Valentines Day and hardly left the house without since. My perfect mini companion:)

LEATHER LOVIN'

(Equipment signature mint blouse - cute ones here & here, Leather skinny ankle grazer pants - shopgoodnightmacaroon.com, Anthropologie golden plains pouch, Zara high heel sandals with buckles)

Had meeting all day long in Malibu yesterday so Emil and I decided to stop by our favorite restaurant to grab some quick dinner. Since the place is sort of on a fancy side, I decided to dress up a little. You've seen this shirt before, told you I'm obsessed, but I finally got a chance to wear my latest acquisition. Love these pants to death, so comfy and stylish, and a bit of the animal print on the pocket makes them so much more special. What do you think?

BTW, I got a few emails asking which lipstick and blush I wear. Right now, I am completely crazy for YSL Rouge Pur Couture in 25: Rose Toupe, and YSL Creme de Blush in Velvety Peach. My philosophy is less is more, I prefer pretty natural lipstick shades and a slightly brighter cheek. And YSL products have this really great texture, easy to apply, they go on very smoothly and stay on equally well.

LITTLE WHITE SHORTS

Absolutely head-over-heels for this top, such a cool combination of colors! Got it last week and been wearing it non-stop. Few days ago Emil and I had a chance to go out for drinks with our friends, whom we haven't seen in a while because of our busy schedules. We haven't had a proper night off since we got back from New York so it was nice to have some down time with our favorite people. I paired my new top with these cute Zara high waist shorts I got recently. Wearing shorts in February, you gotta love LA weather:)

PASTEL CRUSH

Sort of obsessed with color mint right now, I spotted this shirt in a store a few days ago and couldn't resist adding it to my growing Equipment shirt collection. Pastel silk makes me weak in my knees...

Ever since I got back from New York, I've been wearing a lot of dresses, I guess the warm weather is getting to me:)  So, when Emil and I decided to go to our favorite Cuban restaurant for some dinner and drinks, I thought it was a perfect opportunity to dress up a bit. This particular one is my current favorite. Love the texture and the side cut outs.

Happy Monday,

Love,

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK | TALES FROM THE TENTS

Typical fashion week schedule is not for the lighthearted, events start early in the morning and continue well into the night. Yet, I’ve never experienced such blissful exhaustion as I did during fashion week. Tingling with anticipation of the next morning, I passed out across my bed in full make up, counting the moments until I can get up and do it all over again. So, I wanted to share a few pics from Lincoln Center, hope you like them!

Love,

Annabelle 

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK FALL 2012 | SOCIALYTE.CO BLOGGER LOUNGE

 (Helmut Lang lush voile overlap Shirt, Habitual wide leg pants, Chloe Paraty Medium Tote, Poshlocket bracelets)

First, I would like to congratulate Stephanie from http://fashionroll23.blogspot.com/ with winning Jennifer Haley Handbag GIVEAWAY! Hope you enjoy the bag!

One of my favorite events during Fashion Week was the Bloggers Lounge hosted by Socialyte.co at the Caravan Stylist Studios. A super cool Manhattan loft served as a perfect setting for a daytime event for fashion bloggers and industry insiders. Those of us heading to the Bloglovin Awards, were treated to make-up by Ulta Beauty and DDF Skincare and hair styling courtesy of Arrojo. I opted for electric blue cat eyes, clean face with a touch of bronzer and pale lip, probably one of my favorite make up looks ever. 

Special thank you to Rebecca Minkoff, Poshlocket and BaubleBar jewelry, gorgeous Rae Collection silk separates and Chinese Laundry shoes for gifting us with some amazing goodies. Cocktails and shopping, sometimes life just doesn't get better!
