Spotlight on Ella Moss

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010

Ella Moss is the perfect brand for fall fashion, the fabrics are always comfortable with style that is perfect for every day and for every night. The Costa Puff Sleeve V Neck by Ella Moss is the perfect dark gray color for fall, and a great background for all different colors of accessories. I would especially love it with dark jeans, a big teal necklace, and some fabulous gray nail polish that is so hot right now.

This Aggie V Neck Ruffle Dress by Ella Moss is a lovely deep green shade and with the strip on the bias is is super flattering. I think I would love this with dark tights, tall boots and a cute cardigan.

I love the versatility of the Blaire Puffsleeve Scoop Neck Top by Ella Moss. As you can see it is perfect for young and not so young alike! {Of course don’t tell your daughter this unless you buy her her own!} The cut outs are placed perfectly for a bit of sexy, but not too much which makes this top ideal for day, office, or even evening.

Fall Fashion: Spotlight on Booties

Monday, September 13th, 2010

With fall fashion, comes fall shoes and most importantly boots! The cutest, little boots of all being booties. I love booties because they are great with skinny jeans, leggings, tights, shorts, skirts,  you name it and just about every time a bootie will not only look great, but add some serious fashion. I love how more and more websites are making separate pages for boots and booties, which leads me to think that this is one trend that will be around for awhile. The vintage cowboy look is a big one for fall and small versions of cowboy boots have been everywhere. I like this Tessii bootie by Steve Madden, the three inch heel make it totally doable for all day wear and the basic, not over the top cowboy styling is perfect.

I also really like the peep toe booties, they can transition easily from warm to cool weather with tights and socks. {Or if you are like me and live in so cal, you can do peep toe year round!} Not only is the shade of this suede perfect for fall, the cuff detail and platform all help make this E-More Suede Bootie by Elizabeth and James just right.

And lastly, if you are looking for an updated classic style, look no further then the Cole Haan Stephanie Air Bootie. This is the perfect, elongating your leg, everyday bootie. The zipper detail on the back adds a bit of flair, but not too much and if you have never tried on a Cole Haan ‘air’ show before,  do it! They are so comfortable, mainly because he uses Nike Air technology, genius right??

If you haven’t tried booties before, the fall is the season to do it! They will go perfectly with all your new fall fashion!

Perfect Summer Accessory: White Teeth

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

Nothing complements all your fun summer fashion better then a nice, bright white smile. I find that especially in the summer, when skin is a bit tanner and the clothes a bit brighter, a white smile is the perfect accessory. In the last few years lots of new over the counter products have come out for the everyday gal who can’t afford in-office whiting. The GO SMILE Smile Whitening System is a product that has less sensitivity because the apply the product right on the teeth only. Although GO SMILE products tend to cost a bit more then the grocery store variety, they have been super successful and a good way to jump start your whitening efforts.

Of course when talking about teeth whitening, Crest has to be mentioned. In my mind they were one of the first companies to offer at home whitening at an affordable price. The latest product from them, 3D White Whitestrips Professional Effects, has a better sealed strip and is a once a day 30 minutes treatment.

If you don’t want the time or the commitment of strips or other at home whitening, then maybe just ease into it with some whitening toothpaste.  There are so many different types and brands of whitening toothpaste, it would be impossible to cover. So just head on down to your local store and pick the one you think you will like best, I really like ARM & HAMMER Advance White Brilliant Sparkle.

Survive the Heat in Style

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

The temperatures are rising high enough for many to abandon all sense of fashion and jump right into the shorts and t-shirt look. Here are some great picks for tops and dresses that can keep you looking hot while feeling cool during these simmering summer months.

Tank Tops
The key to a cool tank top is to pick breathable fabric that is also washable.  Dreamy Designer Sweet Pea’s signature nylon mesh is a great choice for summer. Like this 4 Tiered Ruffled Ruffle Tank in rain (blue).

4-Tiered Ruffle Tank by Sweet Pea

This tank if full of flirty fashionable details but is soft and comfortable enough you will feel free and easy in it.  This tank is perfect for an outdoor bbq or even a a hot day at the park.

One of Vintage Fringe’s newest arrivals is also a perfect pick for a hot summer day.  Collective Concept’s trendy Racerback Flared Tunic Top is a great example of California style summer clothing.  First this nuetral color is both trendy and smart for hot summer days.  This tank is loose but has so many flattering details like the beaded straps, tunic length, and racerback.  Wear this tank anywhere this summer and you will stay cool and oh so stylish.

Short Sleeve Tops

Splendid no doubt had hot summer days in mind when designing it’s Navy Slub Shadow Stripe Waist Tie Top.

The wide sleeves and signature jersey slub fabric makes this short sleeve top a great choice on a hot day.  I also love how Splendid infamously makes a clean and modern statement with color choices that are both flattering and classic.  Pair this top with khaki bermuda shorts or denim capris… the options truly are limitless.

Designer Dresses

On those scorching summer days summer dresses are the coolest choice to make.

I love love this Modal Jersey V Neck dress also designed by Splendid

You can feel cool and trendy in this adorable jersey dress in blueberry (light purple).  This dress has a flattering empire waist, is machine washable, and is the perfect length for a cool summer dress.

From tanks to tees and even dresses, being hot is no excuse for not being fashionably adorable.  Don’t miss Vintage Fringe’s Summer Steal’s Sale where you can get 30% off everything until July 28th.

Detailed Summer Shirts

Monday, July 19th, 2010

In fashion, versatility is high on most women’s list of importance because we all do so much and require a wardrobe that can keep up. In today’s economy especially we have to be a bit smarter with what we buy and how we can use it for different occasions. I for one am all about a top that can take me from grocery shopping,  to a business meeting, to meeting the husband{or girls!} for dinner.  I think that a shirt with detail is the easiest to dress down and look chic or dress up and look fabulous.

Scoop Neck Sequin Top by Collective Concepts

Check out the beautiful sequin detail on the shoulder of this Scoop Neck Sequin Top by Collective Concepts. It is shown perfectly dressed down for summer and yet could easily be tucked into a pencil skirt for work or pared with leggings or skinny jeans for a night out, love that!
V Neck TIe Wasit Tunic

Secondly, the ivory embellishments at the neckline of V Neck Tie Wasit Tunic by Collective Concepts are just gorgeous. I love that the deep V and cropped short sleeve all bring the attention up, elongating both the neck and the arms making us all look a bit sleeker. The detail once again makes this top easily transform from day to night and the neutral color is a perfect choice for all. I for one would par it with leggings and embellished flat sandals.

So, tell me what are your favorite looks for going from day to night? Do they involve something that is embellished?

Chic Tank Tops by Collective Concepts

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

When it comes to summer fashion, looking good and not melting in the sun can be tricky. Lucky for us, tank tops are everywhere and Vintage Fringe has some new super chic tanks that won’t break the piggy bank available. I am loving the look of longer tank tops with leggings, it is comfortable and much more light weight and breezy compared to jeans. Check out this Racerback Flared Tunic Tank Top from Collective Concepts. The neutral color is great and it is so easily a weekend piece over leggings, or if your dare, pare it with some sky high heels and hit the town at night. The beading detail is great and right on point with today’s trends.

If you didn’t hear me before, stripes are in and will probably be in for a while. There is something about stripes that reads laid back chic. I love this next look with sneakers and cropped skinny jeans. The Lace Trim Stripe Tank by Collective Concepts has a comfortable cut with lace and pocket detail.

Lastly, lace seems to be showing up everywhere right now, from leggings to tops, to dresses and this Lace Tank with Pocket fits right in. Wear it over a cute shirt, under a cropped blazer or even over a swimsuit. The options are many for this chic design.
