Shaken, Not Stirred: Aida Cords

Okay these pants are actually a bit older, they're from Fall. However, being on location this summer in NYC, I have noticed a LOT of colored skinny pants, so I just had to write this post! The Aida Corduroy pants are fabulous. And honestly, the Aida cut looks super GREAT in jeans, too. But let's talk more about the coral pants trend...


Our model looks amazing in these pants, and I love them with the Sutton top. It's the perfect top for these pants. It coordinates so wonderfully.

Style icon, Sarah Jessica Parker struts her stuff in coral cords.

Here's my biggest piece of advice, if you're going to wear these pants - or any other colorful pants - don't be afraid of color! That's right...more color!!! There's nothing wrong with playing it safe with a black or white plain top. But don't limit yourself, and don't second guess your fashion conscience when it's speaking to you! Wear what makes you happy!

I took this candid during the photoshoot and loved it, so I had to sneak it in!! Our model to the right was featured in a previous post about the Nikki Maxi Skirt and how to sport that look! Check it out!

So tell me, do you like colorful pants? Printed pants? How do you wear them?

Shaken, Not Stirred: Nikki Maxi

This post is dedicated to the GORGEOUS Nikki Maxi Skirt. It's actually from last year, but completely timeless and perfect for cooler nights after warmer days we've been having!

Our model wore it with a fitted black tank with a ruffle neckline. It's cute with a regular thick strap tank, or even a one shoulder top. It's a maxi skirt, and since there's automatically more fabric, it's better to keep the top you pair with this skirt fitted for this look.


We finished the outfit by keep the accessories simple, since the skirt is so bold and truly is the focal point of the outfit. The Key to Your Heart Necklace worked flawlessly. It's simple and trendy and is a great touch to so many different looks. I like it because it's really at first glance, but when you look close-up you can see the detail in the necklace.


Another great thing about the Key to Your Heart necklace? THE PRICE! It's $48, which is very reasonable for such a trendy piece of jewelry. I love a long necklace to top off a plain tee with jeans or even a dress and heels for a night out. It's a versatile necklace that goes with SO much. And if you have qualms about wearing gold...I used to, too. But now, I am a true believer in the RIGHT gold accessories and this is definitely one of them!

To finish the look our model wore her own tan wedges. These shoes are perfect for this look, you don't want anything too heavy or loud - let the skirt do the speaking! It's such a fabulous look and when paired with the right top, shoes and accessories it's a stunning look. The skirt has such great natural movement without being bulky and the fabric is light and comfortable. It's a favorite for sure!
