{Style Panel} Black-on-Black...

Embracing the coming season's black-on-black, leather-hungry sensibilities might not be for everyone, but the girlie girls (myself included) of the world can breathe a collective sigh of relief � The trend is as flexible as it is fun!

To achieve a look that feels feminine yet decisively on-trend, I opted for a faux leather mini and a black, peek-a-boo cutout sweater. By keeping silhouette, proportion and accessories in mind � think statement necklaces and fun bracelets � I was able to embrace the trend while still remaining true to myself. Fist pump.

When AiF Met Lulus.com...

You know when you see a print, and it's like animal magnetism or something � you know, that feeling of just having to have it? Well that's what happened when I saw this dress on Lulus.com. I'm a navajo-print nut, and the colour scheme of this dress just made my heart go pitter-patter (yes, clothing does has that effect on me!). Well luckily for me, the good people at LuLu's were nice enough to send it my way, along with another adorable dress that I can't wait to show you... Let's just say it may or may not involve polka dots ;)

A big thank you to Lulus.com for this amazing dress, and if you should feel the online-shopping itch, use the promo code "ADVENTURES" (it's case sensitive, so be sure to use all caps!) at checkout to score 15% off your purchase... Not too shabby, huh?*
