The March issue of Emma Magazine is out! The fashion in this issue is beautiful, and I'm happy to share a small peek of it. I had the chance to style a spring trends shoot for the mag. I worked with a fabulous team of women including my longtime friend and photographer, Jeanette LeBlanc. Jeanette worked with me on one of my VERY first styled shoots (see here). She is such a delight and creative genius.
I also had the opportunity to with with makeup artist Debbie Verver and Ford RBA model, Nitty Carter-Lyde. It was my first time working with each of them, but hopefully not my last. The makeup Debbie did was glowing and beautiful, and Nitty's joyful spirit just made it even better...Not to mention Nitty's AMAZING hair!!! Have I ever told you guys how much I want an afro? I tried my best for my maternity photos (click here to see), but that's as close as it gets.
Check out the magazine to see the key trends for this spring, click here. And if you need any help getting your closet ready for the warmer months, shoot me an email!
I feel like most of us, when putting together outfits, avoid that "matchy matchy" vibe. We want it to look put together, but not so intentional that our shoes, lipstick, bag and nails all go together. But one trend I noticed browsing through street style pictures from fashion month was matching prints: same on the top, same on the bottom. This "matchy matchy" trend is definitely catching on for spring.
I love designer Charlotte Olympia's matching blouse/pants paired with a long black coat.
ADR killing it in wide leg trousers and matching jacket, with an extra pop of color in the blouse.
Caroline Issa does the matching trend right with a textured coat layered on top
Wide leg tartan trousers and a matching tartan blazer-hard to pull off, but she does it perfectly!

I think Isabel Marant is the one designer I truly want EVERY piece from. Everything that walks down the runway seems so wearable and easy. Marant's French-girl chic did not disappoint at Paris Fashion Week for 2013 RTW. We saw a lot of dark, layered pieces combined with boots we're already coveting for next fall.

The sturdy, block heeled trend has made its way through the past few seasons, and is ready to be busted out again in time for spring. Major designer brands such as Chloe and Valentino have created some beautiful block heels, and the trend has been trickling down through mass retailers. Here are a few of my favorite options for trying the block heel trend: Sam Edelman's "Trina" sandal, which features a low, metallic heel, combining the kitten and block heel trend into one!
These shoes from Topshop also have a metallic heel, and are a great alternative to a boring, nude pump!
I love these block heels by Kelsi Dagger, also these two tone heels that seem comfortable to walk in while still giving a lot of height.
These pumps by Dolce Vita are my favorite pick for summer, I love the bright yellow strap mixed with the gold heel.
