WANTED: black, sequins, hair

you can't go wrong with a little black dress, like seriously... it's fashion perfection.  black always, and we mean always looks good on everyone and you can accesorize it with almost anything to make the look your own.  a little black dress can mean anything... casual, formal, classic, boho, retro, etc.  it's always in style and will never ever, ever go out of style. it's pretty much the only piece of clothing that is truely timeless.  it can examplify one's style so well it's not even funny. you may think is blah or boring but a black dress can speak a thousand words. 

oh, and another thing... we are kind of obsessed with sequins and sparkles so we think you should too!  they make a great, great, great combonation with black.  it makes it a little happier and even more fashion forward.  you're probably thinking "no, i can't wear all the glitter, it's too much" but, really... it's not.  we encourage it! :)

are you feeling lace-y today?

...is your wardobe lace-tastic? if not, it should be!!  we've got a feeling that lace is going to be big this year, and we're serious.  both of us have been seeing it everywhere... it's crazy, but we love it!  lace is so classy and timeless.  it can fit into so many differeny catagories of clothing and mixes pretty well with any style.  if you're the kind of girl who loves to rock her leather jacket, lace is a for sure must-have for you!  but on the flip-side and you're the girl who loves dresses and fun cardigans then lace should already be your bestfriend.  it matches with almost anything and look good on almost anyone.  its like you're wearing your accessory.. you don't realllllly need to add much to your outfit when wearing lace.  it pretty much speaks for itself.  so be daring and don't worry... you wont look like your wearing one of your grandma's doilies, you'll look super cute! :)

as you can see in the pictures throughout this post we're each wearing lace very similarly yet different.  elizabeth is wearing a long sleeved lace peasant blouse tucked into some out cut-off jeans. she added her own personal style by accessorizing with a brightly colored head band.  her crisp and clean white lace top contrasts perfectly with her dark brown hair creating an outfit that is both comfy and fashionable.  on the other hand, caroline is modeling a simple yet lovely off-the-shoulder lace shirt with a lightly faded pair of jeans.  she threw on a fedora to give her look the final edge it needed.  finally, katie is rocking a ribed, cap-sleeved lace blouse.  she paired this sweet, flirty top with a more sporty skirt to make her look interchangeable from day to evening.  by volumizing and curlings her hair katie creates a look that has enough personallity to speak for itself! so what lace-y style are you? casual, edgy, or flirty?

stripes.  there are so, so many bad things people say about stripes.  but to be honest, they're actually not that bad and are coming back in style. all the matters is the way you wear them.  it is true that stripes make you look wider but the size and fit matter.  if you're really thin and lengthy, you can pretty much get away with any stripe you want and they can even give you a little curve.  but if your like us and do have some curves then its really important that you pay attention to the size and the style/fit of the clothing that the stripes are on.  first off, like all patterned clothes, make sure that the stripes are proportionate to your size. secondly, try to stick to a stripe with only two colors, unless its yellow and black, buzzz! (that crazy ten color rainbow nonesense makes you look like a clown, like come on now.) and finally, don't go over the top. too much stripe can be fashion suicide.  you don't want to look like you just came out of prision, that would be bad!

L.O.V.E.

we love: white and denim.
ladies, a crisp white dress or skirt paired with edgy, distressed denim makes for a great end of summer, beginning of fall look. you'll look super tan wearing the white and fashion forward in either a denim jacket, shirt or vest. adding a brown belt or your favorite necklace completes the look. for guys we like jean bramutas, a white button down and a straw fedora. this creates a classic, clean look that is sure to get a double-take.




Without love, life is like the seasons without summer...
Without love, life is like rock 'n' roll without a drummer..
