    Inspired... Just Because

    Just because I'm always in need of a little inspiration (and I'm fairly sure you are too!)

    Menswear done right - model Irina Lazareanu keeps a light feminine touch with a plaid blazer and slightly fitted trousers.

    The bold shoulder is just the right size to be wearable, and the mix of textures breaks apart what could have been a too-stiff all-black outfit.
    Hangin' loose - a delicate destruction can make an all-over smart outfit more laid back.
    Tight all-over doesn't have to equal trashy. The wrapped belt is perfection, and the black patent booties pop against the other monochromatic pieces (it does help that she has an impeccable figure and face to match!)
    Mixing styles doesn't always look confusing - above, the combination of cargo pants, cascading necklace, slouchy tank-top, and semi-structured bright-blue bag is easy and breezy.

    I love the last 2 looks. The bright blue bag and statement necklace in the last picture adds just the right amount of "pop"
