As the end of winter nears, we've been looking for fresh outfit ideas that will also transition well into early spring. Here's one look we're loving at the moment: a gray cropped sweater and white straight-leg jeans worn with oval sunglasses, two-tone hoop earrings, a neutral tote bag, and edgy lace-up black boots.

All you need to do is add winged liner to the top and bottom of your eyes, then swipe on a thick coat of the purple mascara for effect. Make sure to pair the look with a furry or feathery black coat for a more dramatic feel.

Let's be honest. There's nothing we love more than a classic cat eye, so it's no surprise that we are loving this effortless take on the look from backstage at a recent Prabal Gurung show. While the eye is bold with thick eyeliner along the bottom lashes as well, the rest of the face is kept effortless and fresh with just a touch of blush and a subtle lip color. Style your hair with no-fuss waves and you're good to go!
When we start a new season, it is extremely helpful to take a look at some style inspiration from the one and only Olivia Palermo. She is always full of new ideas that are fashion-forward and super chic. This layered look is certainly no exception and it requires only four key pieces: a burnt orange trench coat, an oversized blue top with statement sleeves, navy wide-leg pants, and heels or boots of your choice. For extra style points and added flair, just scrunch the trench coat sleeves up in order to expose the blue top's sleeves.
If you are looking to spice things up with the cut and color of your hair, this inspiration from Michelle may be just what you need. Her wavy, asymmetrical long bob makes quite the statement and the subtle ombré color masterfully brings the hairstyle to the next level.
Thanks to the likes of designers like Tibi and more, sequins are everywhere lately and not just for formal occasions. The good news is, you can now rock a sparkly piece with sneakers which is exactly how we recommend wearing this cool black sequin dress. The best part is that it looks designer but it comes without the heavy price tag.

I've gotten some requests recently to share my beauty routine, so even though this is a bit out of my comfort zone, I figured why not have a little fun (hello, kissy face!), and give you guys the run-down. I've always been pretty low-key and try to get my makeup done in about 15 minutes. Here's what I currently use for my daily go-to beauty look...
BLUSH/BRONZER/HIGHLIGHTER: For some definition, I use either the Urban Decay Naked Flushed Bronzer, Highlighter & Blush Palette in Streak or BareMinerals All-Over Face Color in Warmth. I blend the bronzer with any brush I have handy along my cheekbones, hairline and lightly on my nose and chin. If I'm in the mood for a little color I add some of the blush from the palette over the apples of my cheeks. For highlighting, I'm obsessed with Chantecaille Liquid Lumière Illuminator in Sheen. I dab a little along the top of my cheeks, the inner corner of my eyes and under my brow arch for a flattering and subtle glow.
EYES: To begin, I lightly dab one of the bronzers mentioned earlier to my lids for a little depth. Next, I tightline my eyes with simple black eyeliner. I like to use the Almay Contour Crayon Eyeliner since it doesn't smudge as much as a pencil. If I want to add some flair and have some extra time, I like to do a winged cat-eye look with Cover Girl Intensify Me! Liquid Liner. To complete my eyes, I go straight for my Shiseido Eyelash Curler and throw on a few coats of Cover Girl Lash Blast Fusion Mascara in Very Black.
Absolutely smitten with this bustier top! It's perfect layered over a white tee and distressed jeans for a casual look, and can easily be dressed up with high-waisted pants and sandals.
