Collection Crush: Zimmermann

This is a new series I've decided to add to the list to feature some of my favorite designers, or more so their collections, whether it be spring, summer, fall or winter, just for a little inspiration. I've always loved Zimmermann, with their flowy silk dresses and floral prints. The use the perfect combination of pastels, creams, and of course always have the staple black pieces (LBD heaven!). Their swimwear is absolutely perfect too (I want every single little floral bikini in their line). 

Their spring/summer line is full of black and golds as you can see above, with structured but feminine silhouettes, as well as flowy pieces. The ballet inspired heels are to die for too. I just can't get enough of this line! I was on their site last night forever scrolling through all the pieces.

A Must Have Sweatshirt

Aritzia Wilfred Cardigan // Banana Republic Tank Top (similar here) // Rag & Bone Skinny Jeans // Ash Bowie Wedge Sneakers // Initial Necklace (similar here) // Ray Ban Aviators

When I have a favorite piece of clothing, I tend buy it in bulk. For instance... I own four of these sweatshirt cardigans. I can't help myself! They are by far the most chic sweatshirt I've ever found, and they are extremely warm and cozy. Even better, they're super flattering on. Every time they go on sale, which is very rare, I can't stop myself from picking up another one. They are the perfect travel piece - I throw them on over a maxi dress in the summer because I'm always freezing in the airport, or with a scarf, tee, leggings and boots in the winter. I even wear them to work on occasion.

These amazing sweatshirts are made by Wilfred, which is a brand that only Aritzia carries. If you haven't visited Aritzia yet, you're missing out. The down side is, Aritzia is only in a select few cities - mostly the bigger ones. Fortunately, they finally opened their online store so you can order anything you want online. I'm a huge fan of these blazers, this silk dress and this super soft t-shirt. And yes, I own multiples of each (I have a problem when it comes to Aritzia).

Style File: The Espadrille

Another trend I am absolutely loving this season is the espadrille. Yes, they're nothing new, but the variety of different fabrics, prints, and styles I'm seeing this year - everywhere from leather, to lace, to stripes or floral prints - makes me want them all! I can't get enough of all the cute styles. I'm especially loving the leather versions. Ever since I saw the Chanel leather espadrilles last summer, I've been dying for a pair. Rag & Bone came out with a gorgeous more affordable version which are at the top of my list right now (they're are pictured above). Next on my list are the Tory canvas version. I love the cream/white combo - it goes with just about everything, especially white jeans or shorts. One of my favorite looks. The great thing about espadrilles is that they are so incredibly comfortable. The soft fabric and the shape of them is much more forgiving on your feet than a pair of pointy flats.. makes me want to wear them all summer long.
