Spring Trend: One Shoulder Dresses

posted by:

I always try to keep you up to date with the newest trends and the one shoulder dress is HUGE for the spring/summer. These dresses are very classy. The key is balance once again and with the one shoulder dress you are leaving things to the imagination because you are not wearing something too revealing. Here are a few dresses I found at LuLus. All of these dresses are great for all occasions and under $50!

LaLa Love Dress $33

Divine Approval Dress $33

Festival de Cannes $40

Heart Stopper Dress $37

She’s All That $33

The next two dresses are not under$50 but they just look so cute, comfy, and casual

Anna Pauqin by Theme $56

Anna Paquin Dess by Theme $56

All of these items can be purchased at www.lulus.com

The Green Room: ASOS Africa Collection

posted by:

In an effort to “promote people and the planet” UK based clothing brand ASOS has launched the Green Room which will feature various collections using organic materials inspired by various cultures of the world. One of the first collections from the Green Room is The Africa Collection.

ASOS released this statement “On our continuing quest to find new inspiration for ASOS.com collections, we recently spent time in Africa working with artisans and small producer groups. The vibrancy of the continent inspired us to create ‘ASOS Africa’ with the aim of supporting trade in Africa.”

The looks in this collection are made from original African print fabrics and they are also crafted using special design techniques within the African community. I appreciate ASOS.com in diversifying their collections and educating their consumers on various cultures around the world.

Tribal inspired looks are great for the spring. Here are a few of the looks from the ASOS Africa Collection:

ASOS Africa Woven Mix T-Shirt Dress $95

ASOS Africa Printed Playsuit $85

ASOS Africa  Printed Tie Waist Shorts $70

ASOS Africa Printed Jumpsuit $130

House of Dereon Spring 2010

posted by:

Beyonce and Tina Knowles are still hanging on strong. I rarely see anyone in House of Dereon, but obviously somebody is buying it. Just like Baby Phat by Kimora Lee Simmons, Beyonce makes these clothes look GORGEOUS, but when you get to the store and see them in person, it seems like false advertisement. None the less, the Spring 2010 House of Dereon Collection is looking quite FIERCE!

I love the edgyness of this look! The studded skirt paired with the chained jacket is so Rocker Chic. Beyonce is definitely serving this look.

I love the brightness and fit of this dress. The large bow-like detailing is the star of this dress. It adds personality and flare. Definitely a show piece.

This look is very ethnic.

The movement of this piece is incredible. It embodies the spirit of spring because of how it flows.

I’m impressed. Very nice collection!

Sometimes it is always better to keep it simple. A simple trench and a classic pump! The color is what makes this look hot! Oh and of course a little leg does help lol

Style Files: Forever21 Beauty and the Beach

posted by:

Summer is near and Forever 21 recently showcased the lookbook for their 2010 Swim Collection. The collection became available in stores and online Monday March 1, 2010. I love the name “Beauty and the Beach” clever.

I like the black and white one piece with the leather jacket. Of course I would not wear it with a leather but it’s still cute.

Style Files: Suit Me Softly

posted by:

I know you are probably like, what I mean by “suit me softly” well I didn’t come up with the phrase (you’ll find out later in the post). There is a trend called “soft suiting” where you would generally take pieces that would normally be part of a suit or have suit like qualities and create a look. So I can take a blazer, pair of cuffed city shorts, and a tank  or maybe a loose fitting t-shirt, vest, and shorts or a skirt and that would make a “soft suit.”

Here are some looks

  1. Drawstring waist cuffed city short $25
  2. Linen Stretch Shorts $22
  3. Kulotte Short $14
  4. Linen Roll-Up Blazer $32
  5. Open Front Menswear Vest $26
  6. Striped Linen Blazer $32

Aren’t the prices fantastic! Well that’s because these items come from Charlotte Russe. Extremely affordable and fashionable. You can’t go wrong. You don’t have to be rich to be fashionable!

I purchased the vest and the kulotte shorts in black.
