elizabeth and james kurt leather sleeve jacket

I thought I'd post a picture of me wearing the Elizabeth and James Kurt leather jacket, because the pictures online don't do it justice. This jacket is truly unique, and so versatile. I dress it up with dark skinny jeans and heels at night, and dress it down with my J Brand jeggings and Fiorentini and Baker boots. Love!

elizabeth and james kurt leather sleeve jacket

Mamma mia! I tried this Elizabeth and James Kurt Leather Sleeve Jacket in Heather Grey at Bella Rosa Boutique, and I had to have it on the spot. This jacket is truly unique: I love the Perfecto motorcycle jacket look with its asymmetrical front zipper and softly cowled neck, and the combination of the grey fabric and brown leather. This combo is intriguing to so many people. And, intriguing to me because I have no idea how I'm gonna wash it. All in good time. He!

This Elizabeth and James jacket is available on Revolve Clothing, Blue & Cream and at Nordstrom; although I wouldn't wear it with a leopard skirt. Hmmm.

fffabulous sale: elizabeth and james falin platform pumps

I love the Elizabeth and James Falin Platform Pumps. They are classic yet edgy with the inset platform, and surprisingly comfy and easy to walk in. My favorite color is the black/grey lace color. So fun! And, they are on sale for $159 (instead of $350) on myhabit.com. Can't beat that! They do fit true to size.

elizabeth and james harp wedge sandals

I was on the lookout for the perfect pair of wedges, and once again, Elizabeth and James saved the day. The Elizabeth and James Harp Wedge Sandals in brown suede are truly amazing. They are trendy, comfy, and all around fffabulous. I love the 5'' heel and 1.5'' platform (yes, they are tall!), the cork platform, and suede leather finish. Wear them with a white top and the COH Hutton wide leg jeans, and you're fffabulous ready. Also available in black suede and beige leather. They do fit true to size.

introducing textile by elizabeth and james

With a new season comes numerous new collections of jeans. I bought three pairs of jeans so far, and I don't see an end to it. Oops! My new favorite brand of jeans is Textile by Elizabeth and James. Are you surprised? I'm not. The Textile by Elizabeth and James Cass in Glory Days is the perfect pair of jeans for this summer. The fabric is soft, the medium wash with some neat whiskering at front pockets is just perfect, and it makes the perfect butt (really!). And you can wear it as is, or cuffed; I wear mine cuffed with flat sandals or flip-flops. Note that they run a bit big so go down a size. And, they don't stretch much, which is nice.

elizabeth and james slide wedge sandals

Back in the saddle, and with fffabulous shoes to boot. These Elizabeth and James Slide Wedge Sandals in grey suede and snake-print leather are divine: They are trendy, comfy (who would have thought with such high heel?), and so perfect to transition into spring. Wear them with a pair of black leggings or boyfriend jeans, or a classic dress, and your favorite nail polish color (we vote for Chanel Vendetta). They do run a bit big, so go down half a size.

elizabeth and james helena dress

Are you surprised to hear that this dress is an Elizabeth and James dress? I'm not! When Nancy told me she picked this Elizabeth and James Helena Dress to wear to a fundraiser, I couldn't wait to see pictures of her wearing it. I love the simplicity of this strapless dress, with such bold ruched draping on the front. And the golden color and mauve color (pictured here) are exquisite. Pair this dress with nude stiletto heels, and you're gonna look like one sexy mama at your next holiday party.

an instant fffavorite

This Elizabeth and James Favorite Tee in Storm was an instant fffavorite. Why? Stripes are in. Grey is in. And the raglan sleeves and off-center four-snap closure are details that make this top so unique. Layer it with a cami, and wear it with a pair of skinny jeans (or boyfriend jeans) and ballet flats, and casual chic you are. Also available in plain charcoal grey at romi boutique.

elizabeth and james isis suede-effect ruched dress

This Elizabeth and James Isis suede-effect ruched dress is one beautiful dress. I love the classic cut, the contrast of a flowy top and the fitted rushed skirt, and the charcoal suede-effect silky fabric. To wear this holiday season with red stiletto heels, a la Tamara Mellon, and for many many years to come, too. Note that the fabric is not stretchy at all, so pick your size accordingly.

va va voom

If you want to spice things up a bit this holiday season, this Elizabeth and James sleeveless bandage dress is THE dress to wear. This dress looks like the most unassuming LBD at first, but turns into the sexiest dress you'll ever wear once you unveil the sheer mesh back. Need I say more?

elizabeth and james ava dress

The holiday season is right around the corner, and I have a few fffabulous dresses to share with you. And ironically (or not), they are all Elizabeth and James dresses. My very favorite dress is the Elizabeth And James Ava Dress in Navy. It's just very different from any other dresses out there yet it's classy, classic and very sexy. I love the layering effect with the semisheer crinkled dress and jersey slip-dress lining, the long dolman sleeves, and the ruching on the side. To wear with grey cut-out booties for a night out, or red stilettos at a Holiday party. Also available in charcoal and bronze colors. Note that this dress is not as short as it is portrayed online; I'm wearing a size XS, and it falls right above the knee.

to get or not to get, that is the question?

Oh my! I love my Elizabeth and James Jane Pointy Toe Flats in black so much, I am now tempted to get them in grey too. Why? Because...

• When you like something, you should get them in multiples—Don't you ever wish you had bought another pair of your favorite jeans?
• Grey is hot this season. To wear with anything grey, and specifically the fffabulous Inhabit cardigan and scarf in alpaca
• The snake embossed leather, and the lace-up detailing at the vamp look sooo good on the grey pair. Love love it!

elizabeth and james jane pointy toe flats

I was looking for a pair of classic flats for this fall, and once again, Elizabeth and James didn't disappoint. I am already addicted to the Olsen twins' beautiful clothing line, and I am now embarking on an Elizabeth and James shoe addiction. They did manage to make me buy a pair of flats; that should tell you something!! The Elizabeth and James Jane Pointy Toe Flats are absolutely fffabulous. They are classic, and feature a pointy toe, yet they have an edge with the snake embossed leather, and the lace-up detailing at the vamp. I looove! And they feel like slippers. To wear every day with a pair of boyfriend jeans or skinny jeans, when traveling a la Jessica Alba, or when walking hundreds of miles at a trade show. They do fit true to size, truly. And they are 40% off on chickdowntown.com with coupon code FALL40.

elizabeth and james plaid shirt

Plaid is in this season. You see celebrities wearing plaid shirts everywhere; even Beyoncé and Mary-Kate have been sporting the plaid shirts lately. But I'm not into just any old plaid shirt; there has to be something more interesting and feminine about it for me to wear one, and I think Elizabeth and James may have read my mind on this one. The Elizabeth and James Dip Dye Cohen Shirt in Lavender is adorable, and all I could say when I tried it on was a big WOW. This plaid shirt is just plain sexy. It's made of 97% cotton, 2% polyester and 1% elastane, which guarantees a fitted look—and I bet I can get away without having to iron it. Hehe! I also love the 3/4 cuffed sleeves, the front pockets, the tie dye wash, and especially the 6-button gusset at back. So unique! You'll love wearing this Elizabeth and James top all year long; I know I will.
