A mix

Pretty, young, and all mixed up.
Our stylish and unlikely pairing of the week is
Florals and stripes.
The "right" way to pair?
Stick within one color scheme and add a solid piece (my pick was a cardigan)
for cohesion.
Happy Mixing!

Its a religious experience.

Wear the beach to work day

"Bring your daughter to work" day is fine for the old folk

but we're trying to make it fun for the younger crowd

here at PYfling. When the warm weather returns,

we're hosting a "wear the beach to work" day.

We're looking to Band of Outsiders S/S 2010 line for

office APPROPRIATE styling suggestions.

Man friend

Pyfling has a mostly fem readership but for the boys that follow

(read: Tom and Yan),

I thought I'd include some man tips for this week's installation

of Style Source.

These tips come from designer Tom Ford

via an article that is, at least, four years old.

Oh the things we find when we're clearing out our inbox.

So, without further ado--

5 things a sexy man needs according to Tom Ford

1. GOOD MANNERS
2. EXPENSIVE SOAP
3. A NEWSPAPER
4. A WELL CUT DARK SUIT
5. A PAIR OF DARK DENIM JEANS

Examples above include: NY Times, Levi's 501 straight leg jeans

, How to Be A Gentleman by John Bridges,

Wool suit by Hugo Boss and finally Kiehls facial fuel.

And finally, I found a great man style blog here

Happy Hunting, handsome friends and thanks for reading!

Poison in a Pretty Glass

Dressing to my favorite tune by The Nationals, Wasp Net.
The girl he's crooning about is "poison in a pretty glass" and
this is what (I think) she'd be wearing.
She's a sassy Pretty Young Fling

Speaking of stripes

Breton stripes are all over the place but we need ours to have a little something extra.

Lets DIY some jazz on the stripes of the moment.

We're already owning the American Apparel crew neck (shown on left, courtesy of

http://www.choubelle.wordpress.com/) but we want to transform it to Olivia Palermo's

jazzier version (shown right, courtesy of British vogue)

But how?!

Blue Jean Baby

What to do with your chambray shirt?
Wear open over florals or stripes.
Pair with leopard tights if you're feeling feisty

Bad Ballerina

When I've studied enough ballet to actually wear a tutu--remind me to pair it with an over sized tee or shrunken bomber jacket for my nights out.
