Ombré is the New Black

Ombré is the New Black


This trend is perfect for fall because it resembles the many different colors on a perfect autumn day. It's also perfect for Halloween because it changes colors just like candy corn! Ombré is not only limited to clothes and accessories, but it is now okay to let your roots shine through. This look is so effortless but will grab everyone's attention!

Mint Condition

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen have come a LONG way since Full House and their ever so popular teen movies. They have become quite the entrepreneurs in the fashion industry and people have taken notice for many years now. Not only do they have their own clothing line, but now they have an online t-shirt line called StyleMint. I found the website and fell instantly in love. You can make your own "StyleProfile" free of charge. All you have to do is answer the quick and easy questions about your own personal style and StyleMint shows you how to style their fabulous t-shirts. They named me a "classic" girl which is me to a T! Every shirt available is only $29.99 and shipping is always free. My favorite thing about StyleMint is that they have new designs at the beginning of every month! Check it out, because every girl needs a perfectly fitted t-shirt in their closet.

And The Emmy Goes To.....

Two days ago, I woke up ready to watch the Emmys. I waited and waited all day to finally see the beautiful dresses Hollywood royalty was going to share with the world. This year, not only was the carpet red but so were an abundance of the gowns. I'm usually not a fan of dresses that make you look like a floating head, but most of the starlets did it right!

I really wasn't overwhelmed by the choices some actresses picked to wear, but this one really worked me over. I have always been such a big Gwyneth Paltrow fan. I love her movies and I was so excited to see her on Glee, but her dress was AWFUL! I actually do like this Emilio Pucci dress, but it did not do anything good for her. Brace yourselves for my worst dressed pick.


On a lighter note, it is time to share my absolute favorite of the evening. It isn't the most outrageous or beautiful gown in the world, but I fell in fashion love as soon as I saw it. Kelly Osbourne has come a long way from greasy hair and ratty clothes. She is now a member of The Fashion Police and rocked a deep purple, J. Mendel dress for the evening. It is fishtail perfection and her hair, makeup, and jewelry accented it miraculously. She took home the gold for me even though she chose a fellow Brit, Lena Headey to hold the title.


P.S.
This brand spankin' new short film by Dior is my new OBSESSION. It was revealed during the red carpet on E! and it is to die for. Charlize looks phenomenal.

Got A Hot Date?

Everyone will go on a date at some point in their lifetime. Whether it is the first date or going out on the town with your ball and chain, you should put a little thought into what you are going to wear. If you want your date to not be able to take their eyes off of you, keep on reading!


My number one rule for when I am choosing the perfect outfit for a date, is to make sure I wear something that I will be comfortable in. If I wear something that is too short or too low, I know I'm am going to be constantly tugging and pulling. You need to have your hands free just in case your date wants to hold your hand!


Make sure you put the perfect amount of effort into your look. You don't want to look like you tried to hard, but you also don't want to look like they interrupted your naptime. Wear something simple, but also wear one or two accessories that will compliment your outfit and your best features. You want your significant other to be paying attention to you, not your crazy clothes.


A very important detail on picking out the perfect date attire is to know where you are going. You don't need to wear a little black dress and kitten heels if you are going bowling. If you have been dating for a while, ask what your date is wearing so you can dress accordingly. If not, wear what you would normally wear to the movies, or a nice restaraunt.


Last but not least, the greatest accessory you could ever wear is a smile. It doesn't matter what you wear, without looking confident and happy you won't look your best. Just be yourself and have fun and you won't have to worry about what you are wearing once you step out the door!
