Flower power

What would spring be without flowers and floral prints!! Those warm winds that hit you and get your soul stirring with excitement for future fun in the sun!! The smell of blooming flowers is always exhilirating.  Just like a flower, we are fragile, we need love, self care and an enviornment that allows us to grow!! So breath in the crisp air, learn to be you and keep at it! The best thing to happen may be just an email away!

A floral print with dragons to kick off this blog! Add diamond accessories head to toe!! Keep the textures similar for a seamless look.

Tired of feeling like you have nothing to wear?  You have to look at each piece in a different way.  This long sleeved bowed neck dress with a frilly tank scrunched up with a hair tie..add a blazer and  everything comes together.  Don’t get stuck in thinking there’s only one way to wear something.

A little retro floral print gives a whimsical and fun take on a 70’s vibe.  Love my “know your designer” earrings by my girls Cece at Jewels by Joan.  Pearls are always classic and in style!

Or how about a flash dance vibe to get things done! Dressing down can still be cute!!!

Black accessories frame a flower so well like a still life in a painting….lol I really loved how the flowers looked against the white tights. 

A literal take on floral with a larger than life 3-D flower! make the color pop with gray or muted tones. Remind yourself to style your accessories in creative ways! Like this belt that is originally used as a purse strap!

Baroque florals give a regal vibe, but make it spring with an oversized jean jacket!!

As the flowers begin to bloom I hope it inspires you to grow into new looks and styles! Your wardrobe can bring you inspiration everyday!

Until next style,

Maxi dress must!

With summer heat in full swing, maxi dresses are a must!! They are light weight, no sleeve and create a free feeling with it’s long flow! Whether you are running out to grab your back to school must haves, can’t believe I just wrote that, or if you need a quick cover-up for the beach it is a wonder dress!!

Being 5’2″ some maxi dresses are a little long. A trick to fix this is to knot them on the side. This is a quick way to hem without having to pull out the sewing machine!! It creates a sense of style and a wonderful shape to the dress! Check out this Target Pink Maxi is a perfect length, color and shape!!

Some maxi dresses are fun to add two nots…one on the right and left. This way it lifts the front a bit and the back. This patch work dress was a favorite find at Zanna’s. Check out the Patch work dress at Walmart. Pair it with a dollar tree bandana to create a boho chic look!

Maxi dresses are loose and give plenty of room to move in. Like when you are picking red raspberries, a fav!! Find a color in the print then add accessories in that color to match head to toe.

Popping prints and colors in a Maxi is my favorite find. The flowers in the Gap maxi dress below is an oldie but a goodie!! The light weight cotton and stretch made it a wonderful pairing while dancing on the mountain tops of Massachusetts. The color and pattern in this J.Crew maxi dress is so FABULOUS and what a pairing to transition from summer to fall!!!

When the heat and humidity are unbearable put your maxi dress on, match some fun accessories with color and BAM your glam!

Do you maxi dress?
