One Top, Three Ways

Have a pretty top but don’t know what to wear it with? I picked a pretty pink chiffon top, and put together 3 different looks, for casual, work and play.

The top: Sleeveless pink chiffon top from Nordstrom $34

Tucked into a pencil skirt or pants, topped off with a crisp blazer, this top is perfectly work appropriate but still has sex appeal thanks to the flirty color  and sheer material.

Add instant sex appeal with a lacy black bandeau top, black short shorts, flashy pink stilettos and feather earrings.

Beach day? Lunch date? Stay cute but still comfy in white linen pants, leave your chiffon top unbuttoned, add some cute wedges, and a long owl necklace.

Dress Up or Down with Cropped Tops

Cropped tees are super stylish and not to mention super comfortable. They go with everything and you can dress them up or down. I have a few myself. You can wear a high waisted skirt with a cute cropped tee for a night out on the town and they even look cool when they’re worn off the shoulder. Worn casually, they look great with ripped jean shorts or jeans. See examples below from Charlotte Russe.

 

Embrace Flower Power!

One of the trickier summer trends to style is floral patterns. Trying too hard to match the pattern with the rest of your outfit could result in you looking like a garden. Here’s a how-to guide on tackling this flirty trend for the summer months!

Forever 21 wedges, J Brand denim,  American Apparel top, Forever 21 bags, Ray Ban aviators

Floral is a very whimsical and fun pattern, so play off it with the other items of your outfit! Don’t be afraid to incorporate other minor floral patterns with your other pieces, but never match the pattern exactly! Use the colors of the flowers on these gorgeous (and cheap!) Forever 21 wedges as the inspiration for the rest of your outfit. Choose cute and summery colored denim cutoffs paired with a rose-colored floral sweater. Matching the shoes with this floral shirt is okay because these flowers are much more subtle! For daytime, opt for a cute complementary backpack, like this one in a varying floral pattern. Take this look from day to night by switching the backpack for a cute shoulder bag. Lastly, offset the femininity of this look by choosing a pair of masculine-looking aviators to give your outfit some edge!

Tula – A Trendy Boutique in Shrewsbury

When I first entered Tula Boutique in Shrewsbury, NJ, I was in complete and utter awe. It’s basically a young girl’s shopping heaven. Stylish pieces of clothing and jewelry were just pulling at my arms- ‘come this way, no this way’! I honestly didn’t know which part of the store to check out first. It’s a pretty big store for a boutique, and they have so much to offer. The clothes are just beautiful and definitely stylish. I fell in love with the cocktail dresses. (Dresses are my weakness). They also have really hot bags along the back wall, jewelry and accessories and of course, shoes. I wanted everything. The racks were neatly arranged. At Tula, there’s no such thing as digging through packed racks of clothes thrown around. You will be able to easily see and find what you’re looking for. Trust me, you’ll find it at Tula.

Tula is having a sale for Labor Day on some of the designer brands they have: 70% off all summer shoes and clothing as well as great savings on AG, BB Daktoa, Paige Denim, Dolce Vita and more! So make sure you stop in the store if you’re at the Jersey Shore this coming Labor Day weekend.

Also, Tula has some new arrivals for those pretty feet! Be the first to grab a pair of Cynthia Vincent boots for the fall.

Best Cocktail Dresses for the New Year

New Year’s Eve is tomorrow and if you have an exciting night planned, you’re going to need a hot dress! I already know I’m on a budget so I’m not buying anything new, but sticking with the typical (but never fails!) little black dress. It’s strapless & above the knee and I might throw in some textured stockings. I’m wearing my over the knee boots with it. Hopefully it comes together!

Here are some new and fun prints and styles that’ll definitely make that cute boy across the room notice you (even if it is crowded!) Hey maybe you’ll even snag a midnight kiss.

Happy New Year!

Ahh, more colorful sequins! She looks like a mermaid, <3 it!

Boots Reach New Heights

Boots are always hot for the winter time. They cover your chilly toes and keep your legs warm, plus you can layer knee high socks underneath to keep even warmer and no one would even see them. They look hot with dresses or over jeans. They can dress up an outfit if they have a heel, or just add style without a heel at all…keeping it casual but cute. Well this season, celebrities and models are rocking the thigh-highs. It sounds like something only Cat Woman would wear but nope, we have permission to wear them too, without looking like a hooker!

I found these from Guess and I already bought a pair and will be getting them on Christmas . They are expensive on the website but a little secret: I found them at TJ Maxx, and they were only $99!! So if you have a TJ Maxx near you, run, seriously, RUN there right now and pick up a pair before they are all gone because they are super sexy. They even fold over so they can become a regular knee high boot as well.

Rumala boot by Guess Buy It

They’re not skanky because they aren’t super high of a heel. Thigh high boots look great over jeans. They also look fantastic with short dresses. Check it out:

Shakira rocked thigh highs with a short, strapless dress (the same one Pink wore) at the VMA’s.

Blake Lively in thigh highs in gray over pants:

Rihanna in studded thigh highs and a sweater dress:

Flat, suede thigh highs by Chinese Laundry ON SALE for $99.99!

These also fold down! Buy them!

Steve Madden Xenonn Light Purple (They look gray to me) suede boots $169.95 Buy them!
