Black and white is a huge trend for fall; but another combination I am in love with for the cool weather season is black and cream. I love this classic color combination and it feels more understated than black and white; especially in professional settings.

The print on this fabulous pair of pants from San Jose’s IBISS Boutique is funky and I love how this sweaterfrom Banana Republic offsets the print perfectly. The pants are made from an amazing polyester blend which does not wrinkle at all! These pants will be perfect for packing in my suitcase next month when I travel to New York Fashion Week. No ironing = love!

IBISS Boutique has a large selection of prints on pants, skirts, tops and dresses which are on-trend and perfect for transitioning from summer into fall. If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, please take some time to check out this fabulous boutique. You can also shop from the IBISS website at MissIBISS.com.

Happy shopping, and stay fabulous

Last week I posted about a fabulous new denim company; Rose Royce Clothing. This amazing new designer denim brand makes fabulous jeans which fit right, are soft, comfortable and have unique stiches and details. The floral buttons are my favorite touch! Every style of Rose Royce jeans has a different pocket design which makes it easy to own multiple pairs; no two look alike yet they all have the same fabulous fit! Love that!

In these photos I am wearing Rose Royce’s bootcut “Jessalyn” pants. I love how they fit and I love the details on the pockets, as well as the hem. Amazing!

As part of Rose Royce’s launch, they are holding a blogger contest! If you like how I styled my Rose Royce “Jessalyn” jeans, please vote for me by liking my photo! The contest is on Rose Royce’s Facebook Page and can be found by clicking here. Don’t forget to “like” Rose Royce on Facebook too! Thank you so much for your support, and if you buy the jeans, enjoy them!

Tweet Tweet! That is the fabulous new necklace from famed Bay Area jeweler Twisted Silver. This beautiful new necklace features a vintage charm circa 1980’s which evokes a “nature” vibe and instantly put a smile on my face.

The “Tweet” necklace from Twisted Silver is a perfect, golden brass pendant on a petite, 17″ bead chain which is easy to wear with almost any neckline this summer 2013 season. The “Tweet” necklace also blends well with the current trend towards smaller, more petite jewelry we saw in the fall/winter 2013/2014 runway collections around the globe. I also envision the “Tweet” necklace as the perfect way to spice up a turtleneck during the fall and winter seasons. Love this!

Twisted Silver’s “Tweet” necklace is priced at $40 and can be found online at Twisted-Silver.com. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous
