Wear Patchwork Without Lookling Like Grandma

23 Thursday Jun 2016

2016, fashion, fashion blog, fashion blogger, patchwork, summer, trends


So, maybe you have heard, but patchwork is a trend for this summer.  Personally, I love it.  It’s a huge contrast, especially compared to my other favorite trend, sequins!  How can you wear. Patchwork without looking a little too much like your grandma?

  • Go with bright colors.  Shy away from primary colors-blue, red, yellow, especially when framed in black.  
  • Choose a color palate.  If you like pink, go with, and colors with the same vibrancy that compliment.
  • Look for tiny patters within the patchwork. Florals and paisley.  From a distance it blends in, but up close it adds contrast.
  • Look for a modern shape to the clothing.   Fitted, off the shoulder–something grandma defiantly wouldn’t be wearing!
  • Most importantly…wear something you love.  Nothing will make you look like grandma more than you wearing something that makes you feel like grandma! You can pull off anything that you feel amazing in!

DIY: Pom Pom Sandals

Okay, so maybe I am the only one with an eccentric enough sense of style to love the pom pom sandals that have been cropping up.  The are happy, fun, and look so fresh for the season.  The problem?  No way am I going to spend $100+ on them.  My solution?  A DIY project of course!

What you need

Lace up Sandals (I got mine on Amazon for less than $15)
Hot Glue Gun (with glue)
Pom PomsOptional: Pom pom ribbon and scissors

**Warning** I know this may come as a shock to some, but hot glue is…hot!  Take care not to burn yourself, which like likely eventually happen anyway.  I like hi-temp because it gives me longer to work, but if you have sensitive skin, get yourself a low temp clue gun.

1) put on your sandals to get a rough idea of where you want pom poms and what you want them to look like.

2) Start glueing!  Remember to be careful with the hot glue, and hold the pom poms in place for a couple of seconds before releasing.

3) let your sandals cool, and start wearing!  Remember hot glue isn’t a permanent thing, so keep your extra pom poms around in case you wear them enough to need a repair!

Love these sandals!

OOTD: Wearable Sleepwear

So, we have all seen the boudoir trend.  How is it that a gorgeous taller-than-my-boyfrined model can make it look sleek, and elegant, anyway?  Its an amazing look, but also hard to balance and not look like you just rolled out of bed.  Here is one take on this trend from us to help ease you into this fashion trend!

sleepshirt-whitejeans-mules3

A pinstriped satin sleep shirt is classic night wear.  While its currently street worthy paired with its matching bottoms, if that look is a little two much for you, try pairing it with a cuffed pair of white straight leg jeans.  They look fresh and clean, and give contrast to the I-woke-up-like-this top.  Pair it with another huge trend for the year–mules, and leave the heels at home, and keep your hair loose, wild and way. Think less sultry, and more I always look this good.

So what exactly should a girl wear when she is celebrating some amazing life events?  Whatever she wants!  This is absolutely a time to celebrate yourself, and your personal style.  If you love your denim, then rock your favorite pair of jeans.  Prefer a gorgeous dress, hello cocktail party!

If you follow this blog, you have likely noticed that S has a very feminine style, with dresses and heels galore!  So her party day involved an ivory lace dress, paired with peach colored jewelry, and a pair of western inspired ankle boot.

OOTD: Palazzo Pants

Summer is my favorite season.  The long days, the warm sunshine, beach days, BBQ’s, strappy sandals, and summer dresses.  I love my summer dresses.  As anyone who regularly reads this blog can tell, I actually don’t wear pants often. Anytime I can wear a skirt or a dress, I probably will.  That doesn’t mean that I don’t occasionally like to have my legs covered.  In the hot summer days, the usual casual style of jeans can feel just a bit to restricting, so why not try out palazzo pants, which are a fun trend of the moment!

These loose, wide leg pants let your legs still get a breeze, and come in great colors and styles!palazzo2

Often times you can find them in a high waist version, which pairs great with a crop top, and makes your legs look like they go on forever!palazzo3

Pair with a comfortable block heel, so the pants almost touch the ground for the illusion of maximum leg length, while still giving you comfort and freedom to do whatever activity you can think of!

OOTD: Sporty Lace Dress and Sneakers

If you follow fashion at all, you know that comfortable shoes made a huge statement this year.  Low chunky heels, flats, slide sandals, and yes, sneakers.  Models off duty were frequently seen wearing sneakers with an outfit that would normally be paired with heels.

My take?  This fabulous lace mini dress.  The lace fabric and high collar gave it a dressy feel, while the neon green piping contrasted with a sporty vibe.   I paired it with brightly colored sneakers.  The perfect outfit for a girls night to toast another successful week. sport-lace-dress-sneakers1 sport-lace-dress-sneakers2 sport-lace-dress-sneakers3 sport-lace-dress-sneakers4 sport-lace-dress-sneakers5

The thing about summer, is that sometimes mother nature decides to give you a cool cloudy day–especially when you live in the north east.  So what is a well dressed professional woman suppose to do to give her outfit the edgier vibe of summer, while still keeping comfortable when the weather throws you a curve ball?
