Spring and Summer are in the Air

yellowdress Spring is right around the corner and after Spring comes Summer! Are you ready for it? I sure am! I am ready to put away the jeans and sweatshirts and start getting into my tee shirts, tank tops and capries. When I look outside the sun is shining and the trees are blooming. What do we have to look forward to this Spring and Summer?

One of the first thing that comes to mind is color! Currently on the runways there is a lot of bright pink, bright blue and you guessed it bright yellow! Bright Yellow is back and better then ever but don’t even think about pairing it with black (too eighties and you will look like a bee!) instead wear yellow with white denim, blue denim or your favorite kaki skirt.

Another trend that is hot right now is the tribal look. You know what I am talking about animal prints and chunky jewelry. But be careful not to wear too much variety you can turn out looking like a Halloween costume gone wrong!

Another trend to keep your eye out on is cropped pants. It is a cross between a Capri pant and a full-length pant. A little longer then a Capri but shorter then a regular length pant. They are short enough to show off your hot new heals or Summer sandals.

Last but not least saving money is in style! It takes a suffering economy to make this new chic trend - but it has happened! Shopping at places like Target and H & M have never been more popular. Eco friendly clothing that will stand the test of time is the best way to go. Classic summer dresses, tank tops and shorts can be found in a variety of colors and styles.

Happy Shopping!

Fashionable Eyewear for 2009

eyewear Just the other day I had an eye doctor appointment. My eye doctor informed me that I was going to need glasses. Now I knew my vision was a little blurry but I had no idea I was going to need glasses! Lucky for me eyeglasses are very stylish and some people even wear glasses just for that reason! So what is in style for eyewear for 2009? Well I decided to do some research and see what my best options would be for eyewear.

I found out that for women thick plastic frames in rectangular shapes are very popular. I have seen these styles around a lot and I think they are pretty cute. The next question that came to my mind was what style of frames would look best on me. I know what the current style trend is, but can I pull it off?

I learned that the frame you choose should match your best feature. Example if your eyes are green - look into green frames. The second thing I learned is the shape of your frames should contrast with your shape face. An example of this rule is if you have a round face a rectangular frame is recommended and vice versa. The last thing to keep in mind is the frame size should scale well with your face size.

After learning these tips I am happy to report that I have found the perfect frames!
