Inspiration Translation: Glam with a Twist

My daughter recently posted one of her admired looks, where she translated a style from a magazine, by wearing clothes from her closet.  Taking her lead, and using her as my muse, I had fun re-creating one of the coolest and most sophisticated looks from a recent Lacoste ad campaign.

I've always loved the style of "evening wear meets day wear chic" (think Sharon Stone wearing a Gap tee and evening skirt for the Oscar's), but sometimes getting dressed for an evening affair can be challenging.  I believe, if you can pull off a look that celebrates high glamor as well as effortless chic, it can be the perfect antidote for the boring conventional outfit.  So try to create a fun and fresh mashup of formal and casual.  You'll find yourself ahead of the fashion game!
