We’re gonna kick off today with some #BlackGirlMagic!

I’ve discovered that my city (hey Houston!) houses some amaaazzziinnggg talent! A Leap of Style is a brand that I’ve followed for quite some time and I quickly became a loyal fan. Founder and designer Karissa Lindsay is a sartorial visionary and her talent is simply unparalleled. With that, I’m honored to introduce The Bayou City’s own A Leap of Style‘s Spring & Summer 2016 Collection!

As an owner of a gorgeous skater dress from A Leap of Style, this post is somewhat personal. I can honestly say that this brand is perfect for the woman who wants to make a statement. If you’re a fashionista who loves whimsical prints and eccentric silhouettes, you’re in for a treat! The current collection is every bit of fun and carefree but there’s also an edgy, in-your-face vibe that comes across so effortlessly. It’s beyond stunning!

Surprisingly, there is also a mini-collection within SS16 called The Embellished Truths Collection. It is a 7 piece collection featuring pieces that reflect more of Karissa’s true design lens, but also feature some really special fabrics like the hot pink raw silk mini with a mirrored trim, or the Zola Tunic which is also a pink lace tunic embellished with 3D flowers, and there’s the star of the collection so far: the Birds of a Feather Shorts which are crafted from a jewel-toned silk brocade and have a ruffled hem.

Prices are pretty reasonable as well – with pieces ranging from $30 to $250. But, let me tell you, you certainly get a bang for your buck!
