Whether you like it or not, checks and stripes are becoming the new hip thing. These “conservative” prints are popping up in a variety of shapes and forms at all of your go-to shops and boutiques. From two-piece separates, to outerwear and swimwear, they are everywhere. If you are not sold on these classic patterns, rather than avoiding this trend entirely, mix ’em into your weekday attire with the garments that you feel your best in. When I came across a pair of high-waisted navy and off-white checked trousers, my imagination began to run wild with outfit ideas. Wear them with a boxy crop top, a body-suit and blazer, an evening shirt, or v-neck and completely transform the look from the previous wear. Going for an ultra chic approach this time around, I decided to rock these pants with a glamorous evening shirt. Although previously styled on KK and GG, I knew this peplum top would go so well I could not resist wearing it again. To change it up a tad, I further synched in the waist with a pearl belt and hung a pearl necklace around my neck. Finally, to polish off the ensemble, I went […]
Rompers made a come back about half a decade ago and have remained on the “hot list” ever since. They are a great alternative to a dress – you don’t have to think about coordinating separates. While I am definitely apart of the romper fan club, I am particularly critical when it comes to the style and fit. If the cut isn’t just right, you could end up looking like a toddler in a potato sack. To avoid the potato sack look, choose a romper that will accentuate your best features. If you have long legs, go for one with short shorts. If you have a an attractive waist, choose a fitted romper that will showcase your hourglass figure. I think you get the idea… When I spotted this blue floral romper at Liv Fashion Boutique, I was immediately drawn to it because of its potentially figure-flatting characteristics. The drawstrin was perfect for singeing in the waist, and the plunging neckline was ultra feminine. Being a fashionista who believes strongly in versatility, naturally I styled this romper two ways. One for day and one for night. For daytime wear, I paired this piece with with a knit […]
The next time you go out for cocktails with the gals, consider rocking a graphic tee and a pair of embellished jeans! These hot tops are popping up all over the place in a variety of shapes and styles. From swimsuit cover-ups, to sleeveless maxi-length tops, to v-necks, chances are your favorite store is carrying a few as we speak. I avoided this trend for the longest time because I couldn’t find a graphic tee that was feminine enough…that is where The Trendy Sparrow comes in! This hip Esty shop specializes in art prints for the home, coffee mugs, paper goods, and a lady-like collection of t-shirts. Her shirts are crafted out of a high quality polyester blend and available in dark charcoal gray with charming gold lettering. When you are wearing a top that says, “get your chic on,” you better play the part! So, rather than slipping on a traditional pair of jeans, I went for some black leather patched skinnies – though wax-coated or printed jeans would work too. Black effortlessly dresses up a look, so I paired my ensemble with a pair of patent leather pumps, and a light pink metallic clutch. For […]
