Fashion Tips – A Splashing Good Look

March 31st // Comment Here

It’s inevitable that before we can finally enjoy the spring, we must endure the stormy days that precede it. So this season, in an attempt to sidestep the rainy-day fashion blues, I’m trading in my waterproof essentials for chic-yet-functional upgrades: bright umbrellas, ruggedly-cool wellies, and possibly the slickest raincoat ever. Now, in an unexpected twist, I’m actually looking forward to the next drizzly day.

Choosing a solid color dress always seems like the safe choice for celebrities when walking a red carpet, but Cameron Diaz and Michelle Williams both made a bold statement in striped dresses recently.

Both silhouettes flatter their bodies, the black stripe placed right on the waist line on Cameron Diaz’s dress accentuates her waist and makes her appear slimmer.Michelle Williams’ dress is cut short to highlight her legs and flatter her petite figure.

Add some stripes to your wardrobe with these dresses at great prices.

Fashion Tips – DIY Crystal Inspiration

March 30th // Comment Here

Here’s a little DIY inspiration for you. I spotted J. Maskrey’s jewel-bedazzled capsule collection for eco-friendly shoe label Melissa Plastic Dreams a few weeks back, and immediately fell for her fun, summery flats covered in Swarovski crystals. Not only are they completely comfortable, they’re made from renewable resources and look great with my dark, skinny jeans. But the launch of this new collaboration just so happens to coincide with the opening of the Swarovski Crystallized store in New York City, the first of its kind in the world. You can shop their selection of over 2,000 types of crystals and buy loose, individual stones—which until now were only available to the trade. Now I love the Melissa shoes, but part of me is inspired to make my own rendition using these cool gladiator jellies and handpicked Swarovski crystals. What better way to personalize your look?!

J Maskrey Flat available at Epauletshop.com

Get the Melissa look for a fraction of the price with a cool pair of gladiator jellies. These are available at 15dollarstore.com for a mere $15!

Love,
Loren
