GUEST FASHION EDITOR: JONI BERGS

Immediately after entering Joni Bergs' home, her personal style is reflected in the decor, as well as her closet: casual and refined with a relaxed elegance. The former model and fashion consultant loves fashion and enjoys a blend of vintage and new.

Joni Bergs:
Joni Bergs: "My style is classic, but I like to have an edge to it. A classic look is forever, but the little bit of edge makes you feel more youthful and sexy."
VINTAGE PEARLS
VINTAGE PEARLS "My mother has incredible style. She used to wear these, and I thought, 'When I grow up, I want to have pearls like that.' They are very bold, but with a 'wow' look that will never go out of style."
DOLLAR GRAND CLUTCH
DOLLAR GRAND CLUTCH "I've used this clutch more than any purse that I've ever had. It's simple, and because I've worn it like crazy, it feels like butter."
VINTAGE HAT
VINTAGE HAT "I got this Panama hat at a thrift store. It's a cool piece, because a Panama hat is a forever classic. I can wear this with jeans or a bathing suit."
GUCCI BOOTS
GUCCI BOOTS "I wear these ankle boots with a classic blue blazer - mixing classy elements with edgier pieces makes a great look. The red in these boots can add a pop of excitement to any outfit."
VINTAGE BELT
VINTAGE BELT "This was my mother's, and when I was little, I would see her wear this with an all-black outfit. Not only does it have a lot of class and style, but it's also very sentimental."
ROBERTO 
CAVALLI DRESS
ROBERTO CAVALLI DRESS "So sexy - I love neutrals, even my house is all-white. I feel comfortable in neutrals. It's nice to have a chic, sexy piece like this in your closet."
CHANEL JACKET
CHANEL JACKET "I got this leather jacket in Paris. I love putting leather with an evening piece - that really makes it very fashion-forward."
BCBG DRESS
BCBG DRESS "So charming and romantic. I'm planning on pairing this with black strappy heels and lots of pearls. At first glance I thought it might not be age appropriate, but it's all about how you put an outfit together."
WORTH SKIRT
WORTH SKIRT "This is my 'wow' piece - everyone should have a 'wow' piece. This is such a great cocktail skirt and wonderful to match with something simple, like a tank."
