Classic is Queen


I’m all for trends, I really am. But some things are classic. Some designers are known for churning our pieces that are instant classics. The house of Chanel is definitely on that list. From the iconic blazers to this string of pearls… they scream classic. I’d wear it with jeans and a crisp, white top, a LBD or anything I wanted to add some flair to.

Big Bold Bright

On the accessories side of things, it seems everything is getting big! Necklaces are chunky, bags are ginormous and rings look like brooches. They are darn right big, bright and bold and I for one couldn't be happier. It makes adding a chic touch to your look so much simpler. This ring from Erika Pena can add a little glam to anything from jeans and a tee to an evening gown on the red carpet. Taking your look from everyday to runway is as easy as going big!

Get Busy

For any fashionista, spring is an exciting time. It’s time to shed the winter blues and heavy coats for flowing fabrics and open toe shoes! This spring is no exception and there is no shortage of trends to covet! Get ready to pile it on! We all know that accessories can make or break any outfit. For the spring and summer months everything is going big… from bags to bangles and everything in between. This season, that area between your head and your shoulders is getting some extra attention. Some of our favorite glamazons have been seen on the red carpet with a little extra going on around the neck area. It seems the more you pile on the better! Necklaces are getting busier, longer and larger. It’s a trend that’s pretty easy to pull off as long as you remember some rules. If your top or dress already has embellishments, leave the layered necklaces at home. This look works best with a simple top or dress. It’s going to demand attention. No need to add extras and make it look too busy. There’s another trend getting some spotlight time – cuffs. From metal to stacked, it’s a look easy to love and bring out your inner warrior. Just make sure it’s more Fierce Fashionista and less Xena Princess Warrior.
