Return of the Lady
This spring 2011 sees a resurgence of the early 50’s silhouette: long full skirts, demure necklines and nipped waists. Gone are the micro minis and plunging necklines that leave little to the imagination like seen on Katy Perry at her perfume launch in Mexico city. Instead this season brings back class, elegance and a modest chic.
Now I’m not saying you have to dress like your great...

Halloween Crackle Comeback
I know I’ve been slacking here in the beauty department so I figure I redeem myself with nail polish. :D

Jazz Up Your Pony!

As seen on the ditzy Glee celeb Heather Morris, this pony got a little help from Heather’s bangs. Pulled back and pinned off to the side before joining the rest of the party at back, it adds just a bit of jazz to what would have been a very dull updo.
To copy this style leave out the...

You guessed it! DENIM
However, we’re not talking those jeans infested with holes that you have been wearing for the past few seasons and are being held together with a few strategic strands. We’re talking something more sophisticated. Dark washes, clean and simple, almost elegant… if denim could be elegant.

Horizontal Repetition a.k.a Stripes
Season after season we’ve seen stripes come and go. Well ladies they’re back for Spring 2011, but as always in a different styling. This coming season look for dominant stripes to add to your wardrobe, or if already in your closet, pair it with those bell bottoms you just purchased to top off your very retro 70’s look. Or maybe go for a navy blue and white combo to create the...
