  • Trend to Try: Sculpted Shoulders!

    Are you ready to try some sculpted shoulders?
     
    Okay, maybe that's a bit extreme, but between Lady Gaga, Rhianna and tons of other fashionable celebs, the pointy shoulder thing has gone from extreme to mainstream. Ranging from large conical protuberances down to a little pinch and tuck, I think there is a padded/pointed/sculpted shoulder for everyone!

  • Trend to Try: Sequin Tap Shorts!

    Do you hear that sound? It's the sound of one of my favorite new trends tapping its way into your heart.
     
    With waves of sequin tap shorts passing by my desk this fall, I couldn't help but take a little interest; I mean, glitter IS addictive. Any hesitation I had was quelled when, for my sister's bachelorette party, my cousin Angie showed up in some perfect little black tap shorts! Paired with a casual blouse and some sexy black tights, they were a total hit. Check out how some the big names are wearing them!

  • How to Wear High-Waisted Shorts and Skirts: The Ultimate Vintage Look

     
     
    The High-wasited trend has been around since the 1940s and it will be around for quite some time, which I am ecstatic about! It is the ideal fashion tip to elongate your legs and accentuate your waist. High-waisted bottoms are also a solution to every girl’s dread: the muffin top. The key is to find bottoms that hit your natural waist and hugs your hips. Who doesn’t want to look like a tall vintage-inspired beauty queen?
     
     
    Here are some style tips of how to attain the classic and sophisticated high-waist style:
     
    1. Make sure your high-waisted shorts are nice and snug, they will be unflattering on you if there is bunching of the fabric. The most important thing to remember when sporting this trend is to find bottoms that suit your body type perfectly. 
    2. Cropped tops are ideal for the high-waist look because of how easy they tuck in. It is VERY important to tuck in your shirt if you want to pull off this look. When tucking, don’t pull the top out too much because this adds volume to your waist. Also, do not tuck in too much or else you will look stiff and uncomfortable. A personal crop top favorite is the Picking Petunias Pink Top for its adorable ruffles and girly color.  
    3. Belts are a must with this look. Pick a skinny belt to draw attention to your high-waisted style. Or, if you want to emphasis your upper body and cinch your waist, a wide belt is a must! 
    4. Heels heels heels! These are the perfect final touch to this look because heels add to the elongated look of the legs.
     
     
    Even cute Betty White rocked this style when she was younger!
     
    Here are some perfect options from Lulu*s to start you off with this trend the right way:
