I had the privilege of being the subject for the incredibly talented Luke Wayne, in my hometown of Canton, CT. Although I often brag about California’s beauty, Connecticut deserves the East Coast crown. Lush and a little bit rustic, this charming town proved to be picture perfect last Thursday evening.     You cannot visit good ol’ Canton without a trip to Collinsville. Whether you’re grabbing a bite at LaSalle, or you’re out for a jaunt along the walking trail, this downtown area epitomizes the phrase, “Small Town USA.” Obviously I needed a picturesque outfit to go along with the picturesque setting! That is where the eyelash lace comes to play. Eyelash lace is very regal. This fine fabric has become a popular embellishment, and brands like For Love & Lemons and Free People often resort to this adornment. When I tried this look on for my mom she said, “Free People could put a tag on this and sell it as theirs!” She would be correct minus the hefty price tag. This set is […]

You cannot visit good ol’ Canton without a trip to Collinsville. Whether you’re grabbing a bite at LaSalle, or you’re out for a jaunt along the walking trail, this downtown area epitomizes the phrase, “Small Town USA.” Obviously I needed a picturesque outfit to go along with the picturesque setting! That is where the eyelash lace comes to play. Eyelash lace is very regal. This fine fabric has become a popular embellishment, and brands like For Love & Lemons and Free People often resort to this adornment. When I tried this look on for my mom she said, “Free People could put a tag on this and sell it as theirs!” She would be correct minus the hefty price tag. This set is barely over $40! Who’s excited?!

This ensemble makes a statement in and of itself. Not only is it a majestic look, but the fit is worth discussing! If you are looking for a way to instantly elongate the appearance of your legs, this skirt will do it. The built-in short shorts and sheer maxi skirt overlay will give you the boost you’ve always admired. Five inch heels won’t hurt either…I kept the accessories to a minimum because I did not want to take away from the overall look. I am already looking forward to rocking this outfit in the California sunshine.

But from a practical standpoint, if you are going to hand over a lot of hard earned money just for an article of clothing, make it a classic. The nude pumps photographed below are a good example…yeah the red soles up the market value but they practically match with everything and as long as my feet don’t grow or shrink, the ROI (return on investment) should be pretty good. If you’re reading this blog, then I think it’s safe to assume that you’ve heard of the brand For Love & Lemons. But if you haven’t, they are famous for their beautifully crafted lace and sheer garments. From gowns, to mini dresses, to two-piece sets, the aesthetic appeal is out of this world and the craftsmanship is superb. The only catch is, they are about $300 a pop.     Leave it to the fabulous and oh so trendy Current Clothing for carrying a gorgeous knock off of the lace and mesh mini dress! This sheer and white stunner is only $89 and suitable for any fashion forward summer soirée or even the bride-to-be. A combination of tan mesh […]

Leave it to the fabulous and oh so trendy Current Clothing for carrying a gorgeous knock off of the lace and mesh mini dress! This sheer and white stunner is only $89 and suitable for any fashion forward summer soirée or even the bride-to-be. A combination of tan mesh and white lace, rock this pretty little thing solo or pair it with a cape! I can’t decide which I prefer…cape or no cape? You be the judge! I wore it both ways in the photos below, and accessorized with chunky tassel earrings, a gold and white clutch, and nude pumps. You can’t compete with a dress like this, nor should you want to…so keep the accessories light and within the same color scheme.
