Summer Citrus

i love my summer prints. they look so great against tanned skin. This runway look is from the Stella McCartney collection. The fabulous nude shoes paired with this citrus print (which was used to create most of the collection looks) makes for the perfect summer look, whether its walking on the beach at sundown or going for lunch at a bistro.

This printed dress from nordstrom brings the citrus colors from stella mccartney into a beautiful springtime dress for $64.00

Splurge Me

if you have seen these shoes before and were wondering how can i obtain a pair. These are jeffery campbell shoes. and i would like to file them in the "splurge a check on em'" category. These shoes are truly a fashion must have for every season. There are now new colors released for the spring/summer season. you can wear this with high waist pants and a tube top or a mini dress out to dinner with the bf. each color runs for $162 which is a days work for me. 

its worth it tho to step out in these head turning shoes. 

However if you dont want to splurge jessica simpson collection has a similar pair called the DANY now marked down for $50.

Wear your Hair

This new cutesy trend has been featured on the runways and trend blogs all over. This video is brought to us by free people and is available on YouTube. This was important to me because it gives a fresh take to what people would normally do, a french braid. the incorporation of colors is young and fresh. This strands of hair are relatively cheap and can be found at claires or spencer stores and sell for $7. However for those of us who love the look but want a more subdued version, i have some simple suggestions. choose colors that highlight you natural tones. 

for example if you are blonde choose different shades of blonde to incorporate into you hair and for other colors do the same. The trickiest color to blend is red heads. if you are a darker red i suggest blending in shades of a lighter or darker blonde depending how dark your shade is. 

Look to celebrity highlights for inspiration on trying your new braid style.

beamer benz or bentley.. i mean demin tees and scarves

ahhh the coveted denim tee and scarf combo.. its a great look for anytime of year. especially now with barbecue season coming up and the denim jacket hotter then ever.

the best money i spent this year was on loads of victoriassecret vnecks 2 for $24.. however you can find these essentials at any of your favorite stores. remember fit and sheerness are essential to the choice you make. remember with fit: tight enough to see your curves but loose enough tht you can breath.

as far as denim selection goes,, i bought a denim jacket from AE 8 years ago and i still wear it today. this is this seasons denim jacket from American Eagle for $49.50

denim jackets are best worn open so i usually buy a size down.

scarves are a dime a dozen. luckily there is a method to the madness of choosing a scarf. remember to look for a gauzy cotton material that gives your scarf fullness when you wrap it around your neck. also in the summer time this gauzy material is less heavy and wont make you hotter then you already are. also a fringed end makes for a great finish on a scarf. among the basic color choices dont forget to mix in prints to your scarf selection. This scarf from charlotte russe is $9.50

dont give ur boots a boot.

so its march and of course we are all thinking of buying new flats new sandals. but hold it just a minute. you need to know that this is the perfect time to buy boots. they are all discounted and marked down to ridiculously low prices because retailers need to make room for spring stuff. if you are on the east coast like me then you know that its still cold and a good pair of boots may still come in handy for this season. 

so check out all your favorite boot places for marked down boots. i saw great mark downs at DSW

and my favorite site for shoes... AMAZON had these amazing steve maddens for $35. can you believe it?

Happy Shopping!
