The Wrap Skirt...a Spring must have!

The wrap skirt seems to have made a major come-back this season and I think it's the perfect Spring accessory!  It's a great way to welcome Spring, and can be a fun and creative piece to add to your wardrobe.  I'm a huge fan of the wrap skirt and have several of them...time to dig them out of my closet!

Typically with pointy, downward-facing hems, the wrap skirt has been showing up in all sorts of iterations - floral, textured, collaged, colorblocked - so the choice of look is completely yours!  It's a sleek outfit component that's not overly sexy but still appealing.

Check out some of these great wrap skirts and get inspired!






















Pink for Spring!

The 'official' color for Spring this year is pink!  I am happy about this as I happen to love the color pink in all its shades, from baby pink, blush, watermelon, fuschia & bubblegum!  There's so much you can do with pink and now is the time to do it!

Whether you decide to go head-to-toe pink, mix different shades together, or just add it as an accent color, you will look fabulous in this great color of the season.  Pink also goes great with other colors, such as navy, gray & purple, so don't be afraid to be creative when putting your look together. Personally I like to colorblock, so I love to mix pink with bright orange or blue to make a statement!

Here are some ways to wear pink this Spring!

Spring back in time to the swinging 70s

This Spring, there's a trend that makes me very happy.  Seen everywhere on the runways for Spring  were seventies fashions that took me back to my youth!  But there was a difference - it was the lighter side of the 1970s that came through with luxurious suedes, patchwork pants, and peasant blouses that were more happy than hippie!

The spirit of luxe bohemia reigns for spring with a welcome variety of carefree but sumptuous clothes that are also easy to wear.  But like every trend, there's a way to wear it!  Limit yourself to one throw-back piece per outfit or risk looking kitschy.  Temper a breezy A-line skirt by tucking in a white T-shirt, or update a blanket-striped pant with a crisp white button-up.  And don't forget the obligatory floppy hat!!

So go on ladies.....get your groove on!!
