The wait is finally over and The HGB Shop is officially open. As the blog began to progress I started getting all of these ideas on how to expand my brand. It first started with the HGB Styling Services, now I have the HGB Online Boutique and who knows what will come next!

Although this weekend we had a little cold front come through in New York, May will be here in no time. I think that’s when the official spring weather will return. So now is the time to add a few pieces to your wardrobe. I will be adding more pieces to the shop within the upcoming weeks.

So for this cycle you will find fun and funky prints, which are great for the spring and summer. There are crop tops, party dresses, rompers, shorts, and more. So head over to the www.shophergoodybag.com to for more looks!

Peplum was a huge trend for spring and summer and it will continue to be huge in the fall. Peplum skirts, shirts, and dresses are very feminine and shows off a woman’s curves beautifully, without looking trashy. Peplum are sophisticated enough for work, conservative enough for church, and can be sexy enough for a date. It all depends on the style selected.

If you have a full hips, peplums may not be the best fit for your body type as it will draw attention to that specific area. If you have more of an athletic or boyish shape, then peplums are perfect for you. Because the top falls at the top of the hip, it gives the illusion of curves. Check these outfits with peplum pieces and shop peplum tops, skirts, and dresses below.

One of my favorite shoe  brands, Aldo Shoes, has collaborated with young desigern Julian Louie. The collaboration will debut for the 2011 Spring/Summer. The wedge heels were inspired by the book “The Hyena and Other Men,” a photography book by Pietro Hugo showcasing a group of Nigerian hunters and their “animal friends.”

These are definitely statement shoes and will be a great addition to almost anyone’s spring/summer shoe collectlion. What is most eyecatching about these heels are the vivid colors and tribal designs. These shoes definitely tell a great story.

Stay tuned for looks inspired by and featuring these wedges.
