Au Revoir America!

Twirling Clare readers, I have exciting news for all of you! 
You might have gathered from some of my recent posts that I am headed on a bit of an adventure. 
I finished school a semester early, deciding I could make more use of the spring on a different avenue.

I spent time pursuing professional opportunities, traveling for interviews and working while I was at home. Between babysitting, working at the boutique, temporary assistance, and writing for Matchbook...I have been pretty busy!
However, the excitement is still to come. 

I leave today for a six week trip to Europe. I will be traveling to Holland and Spain while spending the bulk of my trip in France. In France I will be staying in Brossac, Millau, Nice, Lyon, and Paris. 

I will continue to blog throughout the duration of the trip...and I expect you to keep in touch :)

Even though I will continue to share my daily inspiration, I am going to host a couple new series. 
Tourist Tuesday will occur each week and I will share my photos and travel recaps. 
Wishful Wednesday will feature an array of guest bloggers who will share some of their favorite destinations and dream trips. 
Also, I will be sharing a collection of designers and their spring lines (including special discounts)

Be sure to follow me on Instagram for my photos throughout the trip.

Thanks for making blogging so much fun for me! 

Toodles for now America, blogging from Europe :)

London + Milan Wrap-Up

While everyone else is posting about the Oscars today, I am going to recap on the Fashion Weeks in London + Milan. Fall 2013 Fashion Week is complete and I am sharing some of my favorite "city chic" fashions from these stylish women who saw the latest looks abroad. 
To be honest, I enjoyed more of the outfits from NY fashion week
As with last week's recap...all photos are from Harper's Bazaar.

Packing!

I am busy making a list of what I need to bring for my trip! Here are some absolutely must-haves for any European adventure, especially France in the spring time. 
I have basic staples that I wear all the time, regardless of the country I am residing, but I am going to throw them together in a truly Parisian chic way.
I love my Minnie pants from JCrew and I live in oversize (men's) button downs like this blue one from Ralph Lauren. Go to jackets are a trench or wax jacket, depending on the temperature. I add my standard gold bracelets and Persol sunglasses. Complete the look with a silk scarf and ballet flats!
To get me through my trip I will be using a Longchamp "weekender" style travel bag as the perfect carry-on (thanks Mads!) and an iPhone for pictures, directions, and much more!

Happy Weekend!

fur collar

Last year for Christmas I was given a beautiful swing coat with a vintage flair from Anthrolpologie. It is one of my favorite coats and primarily because of the beautiful fur collar! I have loved wearing the jacket and the fur accent is the PERFECT touch. 
Here are some of my favorite inspiration shots of fur collars:
