The Jet Setter Look!! (With a Little Help From Rachel and Brad)

Lately I have been suffering from an extreme case of R.Z.W. .... or, unabbreviated, Rachel Zoe Withdrawal. The DVDs are just not cutting it anymore, and I have been forced to stalk the internet till I find any and all recent clips I haven't already watched a thousand times! It's sad.. I know, so now I've decided to turn my obsession into something productive. Below is a clip I found on Hulu of Brad and Zoe offering some tips on finding the perfect outfit for jet setting! While I love it (and have watched it many-a-times) it's a tad dated, and I wanted to show a spring 2011 updated version for the girl on the go!! So check out the original, then the revamped outfit (still following the dynamic duo's tips) by yours truly!!






My Spring 2011 Update!!

Still keeping it light and comfy with these Mixed Chino Pants. The cotton fabric would be perfect for long flights while the rolled leg and bright color keeps it chic and modern! (try a bold color! it's "this seasons" military!!) - Levi's - $79.50



I LOVE this blouse because it's simple and effortlessly sexy. It's cotton, the cap sleeves are definitely in style, and the little buttons and cinched waist give it a strong feminine feel! - Pins and Needles - Urban Outfitters - $54



This is the fun part for me.. a geometric, eye-catching sweater adds the fashion and risk taking to this otherwise simple outfit! It's smart and gorgeous and I kinda wished I owned it! - Gap - $69.50




Because of the bold choice in sweater, keep it simple with a neutral toned scarf. Don't worry though, it's still fashion now because of the "torn" look that is huge this season! - Staring at Stars - Urban Outfitters - $28.00



These have the attention of a high heel while still being a luxurious flat! Detailing on the side makes these shoes a killer choice! - Urban Outfitters - $38



Don't hate on the canvas bag! It's one of my favorites! Roomy and accessible this bag has got it all, and may just eliminate the need for a carry-on!! - BDG - Urban Outfitters - $68


Sunnies are always a must for one Mrs. Zoe, and these cuties add just the right amount of cheetah print pop, while shading you from those ridiculous paparazzi! - Forever 21- $5.80


And.. every good "Zoebot" knows that you can't wear white without a nice honkin' piece of turquoise on your body! Try this unique and fashion forward cuff! It's one great piece of jewelery that's versatile and hot!


I hope many more Zoe/Brad/Alex collaborations happen in the near future... we shall have to see... until then, I'll try to insert something clever...

Look of the Day!!

As someone that is not a huge fan of award shows (due to the fact that I find them rather lengthy and self-indulgent), I did not tune into the Golden Globes that took place last Sunday. However, I recently watched coverage of the show, and I have to say, many of the looks were INSANE! Sunning, stunning, stunning! From Angie and Anne's big ole' shoulders (love!) to the minimalistic and bold Calvins (seen twice on the red carpet by big names!) the dresses were definitely something to talk about! What was my absolute favorite you ask? Olivia Wilde's "princess/French chic" look stole the show for me!! She took my breathe away with this crystal-encrusted deep-brown Marchesa gown, sophisticated cat eyes and sleek bangs, and AMAZING studded Louboutins!! Everything about it screamed award show glam!
