I am not sure what it is about the city, but upon moving to LA, my style has made a dramatic turn. Instead of brightly colored pants and glittery shoes, I find myself gravitating towards a monochromatic wardrobe lately! Whether it’s all black, shades of gray, or a beautiful stark white blazer, I am just so drawn to the basics. (I credit this to the weird transitional weather limbo we are stuck in as well). There’s no denying that some of the best basics come from the beautiful high end brands that none of us can afford right now (#girlboss, we will get there). Thankfully we have places like H&M that do an exceptional job at mimicking these styles we all covet from afar. Places like this are where I choose to shop, but there’s nothing wrong with pulling inspiration from the big dogs, right?!
In collaboration with Lyst.com, I’ve brought you two different looks centered around the fabulous-ness that is Gucci. Their bags are so timeless, and effortlessly chic. There are pages upon pages of high-end beauty on Lyst.com, so I narrowed it down to a dramatic pop of color, and a Sporty chic bucket bag.
If you haven’t heard of Lyst, you must go take a peak. Think Pinterest meets Online “window shopping.” You have the ability to generate Lysts from your favorite brands (which you select upon sign-up), and not only can you make these fab wish-lysts, but you can also shop directly from them! And don’t worry, my savvy fashionista – Lyst pulls from fast fashion retailers like the aforementioned H&M, so you can be inspired without breaking the bank.
