Fall Forward with Clark's

Let's talk Fall fashion. Too soon, you say? Miami may be seasonless, but between back-to-school shopping and mega September issues, I get as excited for a new pair of boots and a great jacket as any northern girl. As a member of the Vogue Influencer Network I was lucky enough to get a first look at Clark's new Fall/Winter 2013 collection and received these Lida Sayer booties to style. The brand has definitely kicked it up a notch this season, (pun intended,) updating their classic silhouettes with rich colors, textures, and trendy hardware. For me, Clark's was synonymous with comfort - not style - but this collection proves to be both with a vintage, All-American vibe. Check out my curated look book here to see my favorites from the line, including a classic distressed ankle boot and menswear-inspired oxfords.

Gigi in the Gables

I love a good blazer, don't you? It's the best way to make anything look instantly chic and polished. Teaming this floral print style (on sale at Zara) with a chambray top and lace shorts was my way of doing casual Friday at the office, but when five o'clock came around I needed to take my look from desk to date night, quick! The solution? A sunny over-sized clutch by the name of Gigi, from Coral Gables favorite Isa Boutique. The sassy leather clutch is big enough to store all my necessities, including iPhone, keys, lip gloss, and wallet, with room to spare. You can find Gigi New York bags exclusively at Isa's, where you can also personalize your bag with metallic monogramming. Who doesn't love a good monogram?! For a limited time, receive complimentary monogramming on purchases over $100. Use code THANKYOU25 at checkout on www.isa-boutique.com, or mention the offer when shopping in store or by phone.

In the 4th grade I attended my first ever slumber party. We dressed up and danced to the Spice Girls. I, of course, was Posh. Fast forward 16 years and I'm on TV telling everyone this season's hottest trend is "sporty spice." (Local 10 Video) While I think we can credit the Olympics for the recent popularity of athletic-inspired garb, I'll give it to Mel C. Thinking sweatpants? Not cute, unless they look like this. 

Art Basel, I Missed You.

My Dearest Basel,

I missed you, and I'm sorry. While you were enjoying the company of Dita, Demi, Stella, Martha and Chelsea, I was hard at work. Turns out that remodeling/moving into a new home and starting a new job during the last month of the year is quite time consuming. I googled 'how to be in two places at once,' and came up with everything short of an answer. Coffee, vitamins, bribery... they all failed.

I missed you - but I didn't forget you! I had all of my invites and outfits lined up, ready to go. This outfit was my particular favorite, but unfortunately never made it out of my building. Next year I'll RSVP early and stay late. Pinkie promise.

The Christmas tree at the Village of Merrick Park is up, which makes it perfectly okay for me (and you!) to wear leather in 70 degree weather. GigaSavvy offered me the opportunity to style my choice of coats from Macy's and this INC quilted moto jacket just had to get in my closet. No one would ever guess this stylish little jacket isn't real leather; it looks and feels infinitely more expensive than its $100 price tag. The diamond quilting adds a glam finish and reminds me of my favorite handbag (Chanel, obvi.) I was clearly feeling the biker chic look on this day while at the mall to have my makeup done for the I Have a Dream Foundation gala. So to lighten things up I broke out my latest fab find, a Rebecca Minkoff Studded Affair Bag which I snagged at my new favorite store Second Time Around Miami Beach. (STA is a consignment store, but I found this baby with tags on!) Stop by this little treasure trove at 1630 Jefferson Avenue (right off Lincoln Road) for your holiday or Basel shopping and tell Meghan I sent you. You can expect to find everything from ZARA to Chanel for cheap cheap. It'll be our little secret...

Festive Frock & Giveaway! (Closed)

Photography by Bella Mente Photography//Styling by Kelly Saks

If you follow me on facebook or twitter you know that my birthday was a week long celebration, and probably got a glimpse of this amazing dress I partied in. With a colorful ribbon print & feminine pleats, my birthday dress was perfect for a girls' night out that ended with a dance-off against Wyclef Jean at Hyde Beach Miami. (Only in South Beach, natch.) Remember the lucite jewelry trend of 2010? Well clear, and yes plastic, handbags are the latest cheap/chic trend to hit the runways. I took the trend for a spin with this clear skull clutch courtesy of VanityGal. The fun part? Figuring out how to wear it without looking like a hoarder. So I kept just the necessities- keys, ID, credit card, lipgloss & powder- and tossed them into a cute pink coin bag. My fuchsia pumps from the Fashion For A Cause shoot were just the right shade of pink for the dress, and comfy enough to dance the night away in. Cheers to 26!

Birthday souffle at The Forge. Yum!!

Although I'm the birthday girl this month, I've got a present for you! VanityGal sent me an extra skull clutch to giveaway, offering one of you lucky readers the chance to show off what's in your bag. Enter the contest below. Contest has closed. Congrats to winners Bianca & Karoline!
