Do you have trouble finding the perfect pair of pants? I sure do! I am quite petite (measuring at just 5'2") and pants are often too lengthy or too baggy. Thanks to Banana Republic, pants-hunting is no longer an impossible task! They created four amazing new fits in a range of fabrics, colors and prints. Introducing Avery (crop), Logan (trouser), Sloan (skinny), and Ryan (straight)... there is a pair of pants for every body! I especially love the Sloan Utility Ankle Pants in lilac which I am wearing here. The color is lovely and they fit like a dream. I styled them with a ruffle pullover sweater, laced up flats, and an adorable floral clutch. This head-to-toe Banana Republic outfit is the ultimate Spring look, don't you think?

01plaid-checkers-coat-denim-mules-pompoms-sf-style-fashion

Taking advantage of the remaining days of Winter with a statement coat before Spring rolls around. I love colder days when I can just throw on an eye-catching coat to disguise the layers of boring thermals and tees underneath! This longline plaid coat is a total steal, just snatched it for 50% off at F21 (gotta love winter sales)! Keeping it casual with a pair of lightwash Levi's, these gorgeous mules, and a lovely crossbody bag with furry pom poms! Why have one pom pom when you can have two? The more the merrier!

Not quite sure how or when it happened, but all of a sudden my closet is full of graphic pieces! They are mostly sweatshirts or sweaters with a single quirky phase/word on the front. I suppose now that I stay pretty casual on workdays, it is nice to wear something as simple as a basic pullover but still has a fun element to it! I especially love this "you me oui" sweatshirt because the off-shoulder silhouette makes it a little less casual and a little more edgy. I paired it with these amazing moto jeggings with pleated and zippered details, a soft gray handbag, and laced up flats!

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! I can't think of a more appropriate scent to wear on this romantic day than Dolce & Gabbana's newest fragrance - Dolce Rosa Excelsa. The new Dolce Rosa Excelsa Eau de Parfum captures the sweetness of the rose with an essence of fresh petals in bloom. Iconic, timeless and unique, the rose motif is often seen throughout Dolce & Gabbana’s runway collections. So, it is no surprise that a rose also appears on the Dolce Rosa Excelsa bottle. The scent is lovely, the bottle is beautiful, I am in love! Thank you Dolce & Gabbana for sending me this perfume just in time for Valentine's Day. It will be available soon at Sephora in Spring 2016!

01madewell-denim-skirt-stripes-sweater-suede-mules

Denim has been around for as long as I can remember, it is the one thing that will never go out of style. Denim also comes in many forms and Madewell's got them all! From jeans to overalls, from skirts to dresses... Madewell Spring denim (120+ new styles) just launched and I am especially fond of the Denim Timeline Skirt. Slim, midi length (lengthier on me since I am petite) denim skirt with a high front slit, drawstring waist and clever coin pockets! I styled it with a head-to-toe Madewell look... stripe knit pullover, leather mini crossbody, and these incredible suede fringed mules which I am so in love with! Denim rules to dress by? I say there are no rules when it comes to denim!

Blue is an interesting color. Different shades of blue convey different moods. Soft powder blue is dreamy and delicate, where navy blue is serious and bold. I don't usually opt for blue when it comes to clothing (well, besides denim) but there is something about this lily floral top and plaid sweater coat that I just can't resist. I love the white and beige lilies against the navy, it's girly but with an attitude. The lace details along the neckline and the peplum silhouette are gorgeous as well. I styled it with a pair of light gray James Jeans, a structured tote, cute scallop flats, and threw on a lovely plaid sweater coat to add a bit of classiness to the look!
