Stop. It. Right. Now.

Tory Burch Azure Bootie

I can't handle the fabulosity.

Fall Wish List

Disclaimer: These items are on my wish list. No budgeting or paying of attention to prices in any way has been done. That's why we call them WISH lists, right? 

Today felt like one of the hottest we've had this summer. And, yet, I'm gathering my wits for fall. Welcome to the mind of the fashion-obsessed. It's not about WANTING something. It's about CREATING. The looks below have inspired my fall wardrobe and my wish list has been comprised to create...if you will.

One Piece Round-Up

This summer has seen the resurgence of the one piece and thank goodness for that. Now that I'm in my 30's, I truly value the opportunity to cover up stylishly. But when you're lounging poolside or sunbathing on the beach in Miami, you can't wear just any one piece bathing suit. It's got to be fab. And, yes, my dear friends, in three weeks my sis and I will be doing just that! It's time to spruce up the swimsuit wardrobe for the sake of looking chic in Miami.

One/ Two/ Three/ Four/ Five/ Six/ Seven/ Eight

Over the weekend in Miami, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim revealed the top trends for 2014 swimwear and let me be the first to tell you that it's more about your fab beach cover-ups and loungewear than it is about your swimwear. Score- we can eat that brownie after all. Mara Hoffman had my favorite option, an ethereal white embroidered maxi dress. Since her new line won't be available for a few more months (and will probably cost more than I care to pay), I went hunting for a similar find and this Topshop option scored high numbers with me.

So which suit would you choose? Or are you a stylish cover-up kind of gal? And if you've been to Miami before, please share your favorite places to go and things to do! 

Her Royal Highness or Mom

It's a boy!! Who else had Royal baby fever yesterday? Of course, a style post was also born. Today I bestow upon you two Princess Kate-inspired looks for your viewing (and shopping) pleasure.

Lover dress/ Milly clutch/ Jeweliq earrings

While I can't afford Kate's fabulous wardrobe, I must say she has really piqued my interest with the Temperley London line and even more so, Temperley's off-brand, ALICE by Temperley. These are some of my favorite pieces.

Long Ling Dress

Mikado Cape

Sovereign Peplum Dress (on sale!)

Can't wait to see what new style inspiration Kate's mom style will bring!

Linen Love

Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you all had wonderful weekends. Our weekend was a ball with a fun 30th birthday party in Raleigh on Saturday and an overhaul of the bedding in my bedroom on Sunday. You may recall the master bedroom musings here just over a week ago. After lots of searching and virtual decorating, I finally narrowed down my choice- with the help of Neiman Marcus's 25% off bedding sale- and am thrilled with the results.

Williamsburg Garden Folly Shams and Bedskirt/ Matouk Scallops Monogram Sheets and Pillowcases/ Threshold Comforter/ Calvin Klein Quilt

The goal was to bring in some more color (click here to see the bedding before) and a little bit of pattern. I didn't want the room to be boring but I also didn't want to feel overly stimulated before bedtime. This traditional floral pattern from Williamsburg was a great anchor to the modern, geometric rug and the Chinoiserie-inspired headboard. I love how the garden trellis pattern from the same collection mixes with both the rug and the shams. That great pattern and its colors really tie everything in together, including the sheets! The room feels interesting yet sophisticated to me. One day, I'll probably swap out the rug but I think I'll have all of these other pieces for the long haul. 

There's only oooone more piece left to tackle in the master bedroom. Can you guess?

New nightstands! I have a pair being lacquered as I type and they'll be ready for pick-up soon. I can't wait to get them in here and have a fully functioning bedroom!

 Thanks for joining me on this lovely linen tour! And if you're missing the outfit posts and clothing I usually post, I'll be back to fashion tomorrow.

Wednesday's Look For Less: Boyfriend Jeans

Jeans might feel like the devil's grip to you right about now but they are still a staple in many wardrobes. Summertime may not seem like the ideal time to purchase a new pair but some of the best deals come during "off" seasons. Maybe jeans with a few holes in them will keep you half a degree cooler?? 

I swear that boyfriend jeans are way more flattering than you'd expect and are definitely more comfortable than most other denim styles. It's understandable that you might not want to pay a lot for ripped, saggy jeans so I've brought you two budget-friendly buys. The pair on the left by Joe's Jeans are marked down from $169 to $84.50 right now on Shopbop. Fifty percent off premium denim?? Yes, please! The pair on the right from ASOS ring up full price at $65. That's still a pretty darn good price on jeans. Either way, you've got two great options for your boyfriend jeans that won't break the bank!

Even if you end up shelving these for a few weeks, boyfriend jeans are a great buy. Jazz them up for night with  a sequined tank and pumps or keep them casual by day with a striped tee and sneakers. This is one boyfriend you won't break up with.

Fresh-Faced Five Hundredth

It's hard to believe but this post marks Savoir-Flair's five hundredth post! Where has the time gone?? When I think back to when this little blog started, it was just a place to store my favorite images and ideas in the midst of under-employment. Now it's a joke amongst friends ("How do you say it again?? Savoo Flay?"), an escape from the daily grind and a way to interact with sassy creative friends that I've never even met! Thank you for joining me on this crazy ride!

Now, let's get back to business- the business of beauty! Summertime heat calls for more natural beauty enhancement than any other time of year. No one wants to prance around in 100-degree heat with oxblood lips and heavy foundation. In the winter, that look is chic but, in the summer, it's overdone and uncomfortable. Now is the time to break out the tinted moisturizer and keep your skin as clean as possible. I've gathered a collection of some tried and true favs so that we can all look like Blake Lively. Sound good?

Chanel Lip Colour/ Fresh Brown Sugar Body Polish/ Diorshow Iconic Mascara/ Bobbi Brown Beach Eau de Parfum/ Bobbi Brown Navy and Nude Eye Palette

Do you have any summer make-up must-haves?

PS- I've recently become obsessed with the Golden Girls concept. If all my girlfriends and I outlive our hubbies, we're moving into a condo together in Palm Beach where we can go antiquing everyday and get our water aerobics on. Care to join us in 50 years??
