Style Inspiration With Love, From Paris

We’re absolutely mad about Givenchy’s Pre-Fall 2015 collection. The gorgeous range boasts the edgy vibe the label is known for, juxtaposed with pearl beading, romantic floral embroidery and layers of sheer polka dots. The pieces aren’t in stores until summer, so until then we’ll be using these photos as inspiration for how to infuse a little tough-girl glam into our everyday ensembles.

Styling Inspiration: Givenchy Pre-Fall 2015

We're blushing over this flirty collection.

Styling Inspiration: Prints

What is the key to pulling off head-to-toe prints, you ask? The answer is to make sure all the pieces are in the same general shade. Have fun with graphic prints and patterns, but only wear them together if the colorways are compatible.

Styling Inspiration: Androgynous Suiting

Want to try rocking the menswear trend with a tie or an ascot? We're with you! Offset the buttoned-up look with playful and feminine polka dots and embroidered floral separates.

Styling Inspiration: Over-The-Knee Boots

If you're getting dressed up for a fancy brunch, try pairing over-the-knee boots with a more conservative skirt. The sleek and sexy footwear adds the perfect dose of edge to an otherwise proper look.

Styling Inspiration: Motorcycle Jacket

This look proves that a motorcycle jacket goes with absolutely everything. Drape it over your shoulders for a formal event or go casual by teaming it with a simple top and tailored trousers. Pairing it with a pleated leather skirt, as seen here, creates the perfect sweet-meets-cool look.

Styling Inspiration: Midi Skirts

If your go-to weekend uniform is a gauzy T-shirt, skinny jeans and stacked-heel booties, try swapping the denim for a pencil or midi skirt. The resulting look is too sexy for the office, but it's superchic for when you're off the clock at a fabulous dinner party.
