Daria Werbowy is killing it in Balenciaga's S/S 2014 campaign. She's got a bit of Sharon Stone vibe going on, no? Not used to seeing her so sleek and vampy, but I'm loving it.

CURRENT FAVORITES

ph: my own

1. Studded Zara Blazer >> Fell in love with this blazer the moment I laid eyes on it- It reminded me of the oh-so-amazing Balenciaga bouclé jackets from 2007 (see here). It's a classic piece, but with a neon + studded twist. Loved the fit so much I got the solid black one as well.

2. Balenciaga Cut-Out Boots >> One of my biggest regrets was not getting these babes when they first came out. I had them in my Barney's shopping cart, but hesitated + sure enough they sold out. Since then, I've searched everywhere + checked eBay daily hoping I'd find them. They finally popped up on EZDUZIT- It's a great eBay store that's a revolving door of designer goodies at great prices. Right now they have The Row, Givenchy + more, so def check it out!

It's hard to wear all black during the summer and not feel like you have one foot in autumn, but it can be done! Marta continuously proves this with cool and chic monochromatic ensembles that leave us drooling. She wore a black balloon sleeve top (we're still totally for statement sleeves) with black straight-leg, raw-hem jeans. The best part of this outfit is the pop of color coming from a luxury pair of Balenciaga mules.

TWO WAYS: BRIGHT SUMMER LOOKS WITH PLEATED DETAILS

Super Sunglasses Gals Sunglasses // Need Supply Cross Over Crop Tank // Balenciaga Papier Neo Handle Bag (similar here) // ASOS Pleated Midi Skirt // Enrico Lucgani Checked Pump

Veronique Branquinho Sleeveless Blazer // Olivia Palermo x Westward Leaning Sunglasses // Smythson 1887 Collection Tote // French Connection Chelsea Colorblocked Tote // Pinko Contrast Hem Pleated Skirt // Aquazzura Mayfair Peep Toe Booties (also here)

Elizabeth Minett and Olivia Palermo look stunning in two bright summer looks with pleated details. I'm crushing on Olivia's orange sleeveless blazer, which she wore over a pleated maxi skirt turned dress. Just wish she had switched the heels and bag for simple black options. As for Elizabeth, I love how she gave her pink pleated high-waisted skirt a minimal feel with a black crop top and Balenciaga clutch.
