Monday Inspiration

Hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving...we spent the weekend in the middle of the country, laying by the fire, working on the website, drinking wine and hanging with family. Oh, and eating lots of pie...

Anywho, the new website will be done any day now (just always perfecting tiny little things).  So until then, here is some Monday inspiration for you, trying to get in the holiday spirit, even though its 80 degrees in LA...

Quick Note!

Hi everyone...

Just a head up....Our new website is in the final stages (YAY!) but unfortunately until then our main site is down and this blog is the only thing that will be up.

So for now, check out our dresses on www.facebook.com/thestylistla and email info@thestylistla.com with questions or to set up an appointment.

The goal is to have the full, new site up early next week!

Thanks for your patience,

Monday Inspiration

Just because we are busy working on our site, doesn't mean we would ever forget about Monday Inspiration.  Let's be real, half the time it's the best part of our Monday.

Anywho crazy day with web stuff, shooting new dresses, prepping for a short vacation this week.

Here are some shots that inspired us today.

And if you are wondering why our homepage is taking you here, why you can't see dresses etc....see our little note of explanation here. New site should be up FRIDAY!!

Outfit Perfections

Love these looks for the following reasons:

1.  That skirt is awesome, and the belt and white blouse are perfect additions.  They allow the print of the skirt to stand out perfectly.
2.  Leaving for Cabo in 2.5 weeks and loving this swimsuit cover up look.  A long plain tank, sleeveless sweater, bright suit and color blocked bag.  May be replicating this look for the trip.
3.  Half tuck shirt, leather skirt, slicked back hair...so so chic. Miranda is great at pulling off so many different types of looks.
4.  Statement necklace and bright, colorful blazer.  Taylor accessorizes so well (duh!).  And yes, we are uber obsessed with her right now, sorry.
5. Tuula's cropped, printed top is amazing. We want this one super badly.  And love the pairing of a long skirt and oversized bag.

Taylor Tomasi Hill's office

Who What Wear partnered with the Coveteur to shoot Taylor Tomasi Hill's office space and we could not possibly be happier with the piece.  As we have said many times before, we love seeing where/how some of our favorites get to work, and clearly Taylor is one of our favorites.  Here are a few of our favorite photos from the piece.  She inspires us so much with her daily outfit choices, we are excited to now see some of the things that inspire her.

Thanks Who What Wear, your articles have been KILLING it lately.  Read the whole article here.

Monday Inspiration

 

Such an incredible weekend styling the Tieks photoshoot in the valley.  In case you don't know, (we will be dedicating a post to this soon) Tieks are the most amazing, chic, foldable ballet flats ever created.  Seriously, the Gavrielis are genuises....Anyways, this shoot has affected today's inspiration (as we are still delirious and stuck thinking in "editorial" terms.)

Loving, leather cuffs, taylor tomasi hill and the half tucked shirt, super thick eye makeup, tuula in LA, Elin Kling (as always), oversized sequins, and the large studded bag.

Happy Monday everyone!

Ob-sessed

So Vogue's Best Dressed Issue will be out November 15th and the Olsen Twins have landed the cover.  They are also named the best dressed sisters (obviously).  Our personal opinion is that the only two who could even compete are Poppy and Cara Delevigne.....But anyways....we love these shots and honestly cannot wait to pick up this issue and then keep it forever to look back and see how their style has changed.

Happy wednesday everyone!

Styling: Ten Year High School Reunion

You know how much we love styling (of any kind really), so when our friend Amanda from the blog I go You Go asked us to be a part of a styling blogger challenge, we quickly accepted.  The goal is to come up with two great looks for a 10 year high school reunion at a local bar.  Since this is the type of event that we frequently style women for, we jumped to the challenge.

Here is what we came up with. For a reunion like this we think it is important to portray your individual style and try and stand out a bit (think a pop of color or print that stands out).  However, you must wear something that is classy and sophisticated so that your old high school friends don't think you are trying too hard, or attempting to look the way you did 10 years ago...

Each of these items can be purchased at ShopBop (with the exception of TheStylist LA dress in the first look, which can be found on our website.)  Keep in mind, we did not think of budget when creating these looks (especially look 2).  But, most of these pieces have alternatives that can be found on less expensive sites.  If you have trouble finding similar things feel free to email us (info@thestylistla.com) or comment with questions.  Our styling process usually starts with creating looks from more quality pieces and then sourcing from less expensive places (a girl can dream to afford it all right??).

Hope you enjoy!

Monday Inspiration

 

Here are some pretty photos for you on this cold, but sunny! Monday morning.  These photos have no theme...just random ones that grasped our attention.  It was so cold in LA this weekend.  Time to break out the boots, sweaters and scarves....pretty ready for the fall wardrobe to come out and play.  Hope everyone has a fab day. xx
