I am kind of a snob when it comes to brands in fashion. I am learning to love other brands I am not familiar with, but there is just something to be said about brands that have been around for a long time and do a great job with their designs and fits. I am going to feature different brands on my blog to both educate you and myself on what is out there. Today, I want to tell you about a brand called Nic + Zoe that I absolutely love the designs and the fit. I don’t feel like this brand gets the appreciation that it deserves in the Memphis fashion scene. You may already know this brand well or this might be the first you…
As fall shopping approaches, I would like to give you some tips on how to maximize your shopping experience. It made me remember a conversation I had with a friend about how to avoid returning things we purchase. We often fall in love with something in the store and get it home and hate it. You think to yourself ” Why did I buy this?” We were trying to figure out why this happens and what we can do to prevent buying something we will regret. Then we realized this would be a great subject for a blog post! I am going to give you some tips to think about when you are shopping to help minimize those unwanted returns. I really dislike buying something…
To me, Zara is always on point and a step ahead of the rest of fashion retailers. They started showing their pre-fall in mid-July! We are usually sick of summer clothing by this point and want to see something new and different. The best kind of pre-fall items are the ones that still feel like summer but have fall colors. The City Lights Pre-Fall 2017 from Zara is just that. Of course not all the pieces are summer worthy but you can find enough pieces to create a new transitional wardrobe. My last post was on the Fall 2017 Pantone Colors of the season and they are all represented here. For the first time the Pantone Institute showed the seasonal colors for London Fashion Week.…
I think I speak for most of us when I say that fall can not get here fast enough! The heat has become unbearable and we have grown tired of all of our spring and summer clothes. To get us through the high temps of August, we should consentrate on what awesome fall stuff is just around the corner. This fall season especially should get you excited because of the fun colors designers have used in their collections. While the Fall 2016 color palette was lead by shades of blue, this year the focus was on a warm color palette with a red and brownish orange color as the bookends in the palette. These 10 Pantone colors for Fall 2017 are warm and cozy colors…
March is the start of one of the best times of the year. Trees start to grow their leaves and flowers begin to bloom. I honestly love this time of year mainly because that means sunny days ahead and it will soon be light again when I am done with a long day at work! Amen to that! It also means outdoor concerts, garden parties and gala’s galore. If you enjoy events like these in the spring time, check out the article on StyleBlueprint to see just what you should be wearing to events like these. The Peabody Hotel was the chosen location for the What To Wear March Events photo shoot and we could not have asked for a prettier backdrop. The lovely models,…
Although this spring season has been somewhat uninspiring to me, I managed to find some things that I think are super cute and great additions to your wardrobe. I a.b.s.o.l.u.t.e.l.y love all the pink! Blush pink is my favorite color in the world and it is everywhere this season. My favorite new piece that I have added to my wardrobe is the blush pink jean. It goes with just about everything in my closet from my t-shirts to my gingham button downs to my green military jacket. This is a must have for all those fellow pink lovers out there. The one shown below is an AG Jean but you can find them at many retailers like J Crew and Banana Republic. Good luck on…
