We were talking Black & White yesterday, so I figured I’d share one of my takes on the trend! I rocked my black & blanco with pops of metallic silver, but I can’t wait to sport the look with a splash of neon (love these flats!) or animal print (this clutch is amazing!).

Now that the new year is upon us and we’ve kind of settled back into our routines, let’s start talking Spring Trends! Can you believe that NYFW is in just a few weeks?! I surely can’t! I’m not so sure I am ready to start talking about next fall’s trends already, but maybe it will help if we hash out what we’ll be seeing for the 2013 spring and summer seasons. What can I say? I like to go in order.
Nine West Color Block Pumps / Michael Kors Black Watch / Madewell Striped Sweatshirt / Madewell Tote / Rowen Pumps / Nine West Cut-Out Pumps / Betsey Johnson Bow Studs / Sequin Color Block Bangle
Not exactly re-inventing the wheel with this “trend,” as it is pretty standard combination year round, but we’ll be seeing a lot of Black & Blanco this spring and summer.
JRStyle Tip: Since black & white is essentially a blank canvas, have some fun with it. Pops of neons, metallics, and/or leopard are highly encouraged!

Just like navy & black, black & brown is one of those fictitious rules. Wear the two colors together, and wear them often!

Just call me Repetitive Rachel. For a few reasons, actually…
1. I’ve worn this outfit a few times over the past few weeks. Once with plaid flats, once with leopard flats and a chunky necklace to match the chunky sweater.
2. In my post decoding food-focused holiday wear, I outlined this outfit to a T. It was actually that outfit collage that convinced me to get the pants when Madewell was having a 30% off promotion!
3. I’ve worn this sweater, necklace, and flat combo before. See here.

Whenever I pull these gray leopard jeans out of my dresser, I always reach for black on top. (Evidenced here.) I made myself break the mold this past weekend. I could pair a lot of things with these pants… pink, a citrus-y neon yellow, white, gray, navy, etc. The list is really endless. It doesn’t get much more versatile than black & gray. I chose to wear a cool mint sweater and top it all off with a fur vest.

I kind of forgot about the double shirt look. I rocked two shirts a few times last winter (see here) and it’s a great way to add an extra layer of warmth and a bit of flair to your outfit!

I’m feeling pretty fortunate today, or Lucky, if you will!
I was featured in the February 2013 issue of one of my monthly must-read glossies – Lucky Magazine! Can someone pinch me, please?!
I’m wearing my standard uniform of a button-front shirt and a full skirt, which apparently is an outfit that looks amazing on everybody!
Making a little appearance in a magazine was one of my “25 before 25.” Now I can happily cross this off of my list!
You know, x-amount of things you’d like to accomplish before x-age. 30 before 30, 40 before 40, 20 before 20, whichever number you prefer. I am an avid goal-setter and a compulsive list-maker so making this little list just seemed natural!
Thanks so much for the cameo, Lucky! 
PS – You can find that full outfit post here.

I was doing some online perusing this weekend and I found some FABULOUS pieces at Forever 21! I started tweeting them, but they were too good not to share with my non-tweeting followers. Enjoy!
It’s kind of funny, some of my favorite pieces have come from Forever 21. I’ve found that with a little tweaking, you can turn some of their pieces into items that you’ll have for the long haul. For example, take my Forever 21 Faux Fur Vest. Originally, it came with some ugly ribbon sash on it, but I just removed the sash and cut off the ribbon loops on the side. And wah lah, a cute, versatile vest that I’ve been wearing for 4 years now!
Outfit #1 / Outfit #2 / Outfit #3 / Outfit #4 / Outfit #5 / Outfit #6 / Outfit #7
PS – Hurry! You know how their diamond-in-the-rough pieces sell out quickly!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. It’s OKAY to wear navy blue and black together! Better than okay… It feels modern & cool!

Wine-colored cords and a snowflake sweater ended up being what I wore to my family Christmas party on the 23rd. I added a chambray shirt (mainly for warmth!), burgundy bow flats, and some sparkly jewelry!
