A nice floaty, drapey holiday blouse in bright red. It might be a little too much float with the open cuffs too; moving into pirate land. I don’t know, on the fence about it. Brooke of course looks gorgeous in the color though.

Dayzee – Peacock Midi Dress (12.26.12)
Dayzee always looks good in nature inspired clothes. I would love to see her maybe in some edgier styles too at some point. It may mean her character would have to go bitchy in which case I would totally be ok with that too. Because you know it would be the good kind of bitchy; the girl friend you want in your corner because she is strong, smart, and correct 99% of the time. For now I’m ok with feathers and leaves and prints.
Steffy – Quilted Shoulder Jacket (12.19.12)
If I had these pants I would be wearing them as much as possible too. Remember these pants from a year ago, by Isabel Marant Fall 2011 RTW? I wanted this screen cap because I wanted to share the styling of the whole outfit. But if you get a closer look at the jacket, you’ll see some quilting detail on the shoulder. Not a color we would normally expect to see on Steffy, but then again not sure there is a color JMW looks bad in.
Brooke – Cowl Blouse (12.12.12)
This is more of an excuse to post a screen cap of cute baby Will. Just so happens that the blouse is nice too.
Caroline – Peplum Top / Print Pant (12.12.12)
Caroline has quite a bit more coverage today. Phew that skirt she had on yesterday made me a little nervous when she reached up. We have talked about peplum before and how deceptively flattering it is…so I’m not sure why I haven’t raced out to buy one. In any case. I’m drawn to the pants. The Real Deal are by Zara and they are sold out, sorry (you can get some on ebay).
J Crew has a bunch of great printed cigarette pants though, check them out here. They are a way cooler option for your holiday party than sequins.
Caroline – Aztec Skirt & Pink Blazer (12.8.12)
Caroline ‘Speaker of Truths’, and wearer of bandage skirts. Hey she looks good in them so why not. And this kind of blushy pinky blazer? I find myself wanting to hate it, but I think the cut of it has reeled me in. Okay and the color too. Even though I have zero (0) pale pink-ish items in my closet, I like it. I actually love the styling with the strong aztec lines of the skirt and how the lines are carried within the jacket too. Now if the jacket was black it would be very Steffy, but softening the look with the color makes it very Caroline.I found The Real Deal of the skirt and a version of the blazer.
Brooke – Gathered Dress (12.7.12)
J’adore gathered dresses like this. The gathering makes it like the magic dress in the closet. Masking and accentuating all the right parts. And of course this looks fantastic on Brooke.
Steffy – Hi-Lo Turtleneck Sweater (12.7.12)
The outfit has toned down over the last one but Steffy has def not. Nice strong lines with this sweater. You would think you would need to be a 6 footer to wear this (I tried it on my last Nordstrom trip), but Steffy proves a petite gal can carry it off too. I think the piping adds the extra cool factor and also makes it look more defined and… well…like the expensive item it is. And fyi I didn’t buy it; me and cropped sweaters stopped loving each other about 15 years ago.
Hope – Blue Pleated Dress (11.29.12)
I think Hope wins the style award of the week. It’s a great ‘of the moment’ color, it’s a beautiful feminine dress, and it is just very flattering on Hope. She looks very pretty. My vote for the week so far. How would you style it for cooler weather? I’d suggest a cropped-ish black leather jacket, tights and booties.
Steffy – Studded Shoulder Blazer
Are Steffy and Liam stopping at the party on their way to a Heart concert? Come on I’m not the only one thinking this was very 80’s kind of glam rock looking. Big hair included. Here is The Real Deal if you want to try the look yourself. And if you don’t know the band Heart you should Google it, and you’ll see the resemblance. I embedded a photo anyhow, couldn’t help myself.
