Watch Out

Accessories don’t always have to just be add-ons without a purpose. They can be useful! We wear a watch almost everyday. We don’t like to always need to have our phone by our side to check the time. We’re old school that way. Just like clothes, there are many different styles of watches and some go better with certain outfits. Here are our picks for watches this spring!

LAVENDAR_DBL_FRONT

This Lavender Rose Gold Double Wrap Watch by La Mer Collections is pastel perfect.  The strap adds a bright color on the wrist, while the rose gold adds a pink pop to the skin.  You may think that a purple color would be hard to coordinate with an outfit, but you’d be surprised to see how many different hues this goes well with.  Find it here!

Kate Spade understands our love for scallops.  No, not the tasty creatures from the sea, but the ever-so-stylish curved edge. Black is always in, no matter the season, and when a scalloped edge is involved, it creates a feminine classic.  Find it here!

Gold and silver can be mixed without any fuss.  Leather can be more casual which is why we picked this metal timepiece for the workplace.  Pair it with a dark blazer and nude pumps and you’re ready for your important meeting.  Find it here!

Put a Spring in Your Step!

It’s March 20, 2015 AND spring is here!! Thank goodness.

Here are some spring trends that we LOVE.

1. Bold colors. Shorts, tops, it doesn’t matter. The bright hues add energy and passion into what you wear.  Spring is the time to be bold and beautiful, so pair these powerful colors with neutral accents.  For example, bright red high waisted shorts look incredible with a sandy colored tissue tee.

2. Wedges. These elevated shoes add height to an outfit without all the discomfort of stilettos. Wearing an open-toed wedge elongates the legs when paired with a skirt or dress, and who doesn’t like to put on the illusion of legs that never end?

3. Gold. 14 karat or gold-filled, this rich metal adds class.  Not that silver isn’t beautiful, but gold adds warmth and brings out your natural skin tone. Layering simple gold necklaces is a way to dress up a simple tank.  Pair with dark skinny jeans and you’re basically on a runway.

4. Florals. When we think of spring, we think of flowers and gorgeous weather. A floral patterned top pairs perfectly with a warm color, such as orange, yellow, or fuchsia. Add some pearls to feel like you just stepped out of Southern Living holding a warm sweet potato pie.
