Once When I Was
my interwebs:
Here is where I share my fashion and beauty inspiration, my daily life as a fashion stylist and personal style blog. I have a major obsession for accessories and love discovering new designers.
Photos all mine unless credited otherwise. If you see a photo and it is not credited please let me know the source so I can fix it. Thanks!

Satchels are a big trend that isn’t letting up anytime soon. @Lacoste Live! offers up a mini coral cross body that is such a nice fit and color. I especially love the cute initial bag accessories that can be added on.
L is for Love.
I should really take these #ootd pics in the AM not after a long rainy day. My @allsaintsshop top represents that I am reading game of thrones. It’s like armor. My @bedstu booties were so comfortable all day. What you need #nyfw (Taken with Instagram)
DVF Resort 13
I could have posted every look from Diane Von Furstenberg’s resort collection. She does effortless chic effortlessly.
My head exploded when I saw this amazing printed bag at Negri Firman. Of course, my notes made no sense to me after all this time but I managed to figure it out.
The bag is a collaboration between the two fellows behind the Brazilian label Leitmotiv exclusively for the innovative fabric brand Alcantara.
Click links to see the fantastically print heavy collection on the Leitmotiv tumblr (Hello Kittykitty!) and for all things sustainable and lux-modern go to Alcantara. I couldn’t find the bag for sale but I did find both brands available on Yoox.
Such a great collabo! @drmartens @pendletonwoolenmills #shoes #marketrecaps #menswear #fashion (Taken with instagram)
Pop pop pop! The envelop clutch is a huge trend right now and these exotic offerings by Robyn Brooks NY will keep you ahead of the curve. Click the link to shop her store but for the neon styles above you will have to wait till her #fw12 collection drops. I am crazy about the skull key chains too.
blackberryvision: Gift from my coworker. Jeremy Scott for Longchamp, SoHo.
Now I am super jealous I missed this show. Wanna trade the tire tracks for paradise? Thank goodness I am leaving for Florida sunshine in 3 days. Yay!
@ProjectShow : Accessories Round Up
Sometime you get dressed and you can’t do more than pick out your simplest, most basic pieces to get you out the door on time (if you are like me, that is). The key to making those outfits shine with personality is everything else; The Accessories. Here is a preview of what’s in store for FW’12.
Over sized hats are not going away thankfully and here is a beautiful teal topper from the classic kids at Kangol.
Bags are always a great option to be on-trend without buying into a full look of something. Azaya Blue makes such fun neon and studded options. The Navajo print is still going strong but you should get it from the leaders of the pack with the Dopp bag from Pendleton Woolen Mills.
Perhaps you are more interested in something a bit more exotic. Steal from the boys with this Parabellum doctor bag I found at Project Wooster.
Another obsession of mine are scarves. Especially bright over-sized ones! These Kapital ones were lovingly placed at Project Wooster.
Why be boring with a plain iPhone case when you can get the best ones from Incase. I love the new Andy Warhol ones.
Happy Socks came by the ProjectBlogger’s table and gave us their Project Show exclusive. You can get happy with all these dotty styles here.
You didn’t think I’d post an accessories round up without any shoes? Of course not. I saved the best for last. Get a load of these claw boots by Friend of Mine. They come in grey too, if you wondering.
Click links for shopping! And if you want to thank me for the sneak peeks I wear a size 6 in those Claw boots. Hint Hint.
@fossil cute cross body satchel for spring. Such a vintage feel.
@charlottes_web how beautiful is this Charlotte Olympia lucite feather clutch?
