  • Looks We ♥: Red Pants

     
    You saw them all over the Fall 2011 Fashion week's street style. You've seen them pop up on several blogs. You might even be wearing them right now. Red pants are my new favorite micro trend of the moment,  I absolutely cannot get enough. 
     
     
    The easiest way to wear this trend is to keep it simple and pair them with a white shirt and black accessories, like both Maddy of Maddinka (above) and Christina of Trop Rogue (below) did. 
     
     
    Choosing red pants is a fun way to spice up your wardrobe for the upcoming fall season. Take note of the way these ladies rock the look off and on the runway.

  • Recap of the Tony's

    Sunday night was a huge night!  It was the night of True Blood, Game 5 of NBA finals, and the Tony Awards!

    There were plenty of showstoppers! Sean Hayes (aka Jack from Will & Grace) hosted the Awards show! He showed off his piano skills while giving us some laughs (dressed up as Annie!) and responded to the now imfamous Newsweek article with a deep kiss shared with Kristen Chenoweth.

    All the big shows had their chance to perform, but ultimately Green Day's "American Idiot" took over with a total of four performances (Green Day themself performed)!

    The big winners of the night were the play "Red" with six wins including Best Play and "Memphis" (music from Bon Jovi's David Bryan) with for four wins including Best Musical! 

    Hollywood took over the acting awards with Denzel Washiongton for Best Lead Actor in a Play, Catherine Zeta Jones for Best Actress in a Musical, and Scarlett Johansson for Best Featured Actress in a Play! 

    Last, but not least the fashion of the night! My pick for best dressed is Catherine Zeta Jones.  In her speech she compared herself to Cinderella and rightfully so.  She wore an ice blue Versace gown, which featured a beaded bodice. 

    What was your favorite moment of the show?  What's your favorite musical?

     

  • Heating up in Red!

    One of my favorite colors to wear is red.  Well who doesn't love to wear red? 

    In red you immediately feel fun, sexy, and bold and I know I'm not the only one feeling red for this summer. Even stars like Miley Cyrus and Zoe Saldana know how to sizzle in red.


    If you want something fun and flirty, check out our Just Wave Hello in Red Dress.  With the front ruffles, you won't be able to stop dancing in the park. 

    Want something bolder?  You'll stop hearts in our Double Date in Red Dress.  This slinky number hugs the body in all the right spots.  It also adds some fun with a criss-cross on the back.  

    Need something in between?  Our Lady Day Dress in Red Dress offers just that.  You can go shopping with this clean look in the front, however you'll show off your back in a flirtatious yet lady like manner.
