You might be asking yourself, why do I consider myself qualified to write a fashion report?! Well for starters, as long as I can remember (even back when I wore hoodies and jeans every day) I have made it a life long mission to follow the latest fashion in magazines, online, conversing with friends, and best of all shopping. You might remember I previously mentioned that one of my dream careers would be a personal shopper or stylist for the stars. Or to work on a movie set or sitcom, that would be amazing!! I've also participated in more than my share of retail therapy, and I personally wonder why shopping has not been considered a sport yet!
One fail proof way to decide if you like a trend, is to take a look around. I am constantly assessing people around me (not judging by the way, I think there is a difference) and considering if their outfit will work on my body type, or the color works with my skin color. If I see someone wearing something that I like together for example, I will go home and look in my closet to see if there is an outfit that I can put together that is similar. Slightly fashion obsessed you ask? Of course!
Yes ladies, I do realize everyone doesn't share the same style as me, and I do recognize everyone has different body types and preferences. It doesn't matter is you are more like Samantha or more like Charlotte from Sex in the City! You can incorporate a touch of the latest styles into your existing wardrobe. Just by adding one or two pieces, such as a scarf or a pair of shoes can bring you up to date. I suggest looking at stores like Target, Forever 21, TJ Maxx and Marshall's for the latest trends and a reasonable price. Save your more expensive purchases for classics like a black skirt, dark jeans, or a classic pair of peep toe heels.
If you have any favorites for this upcoming season that I have missed, please enlighten me! I'd love to hear your take on what is going to be in, or what the classics are. Or maybe you have already chosen a piece of trendy clothing or an accessory, but you don't know how to make it work with your current wardrobe? Message me, I can help! Until then, I hope you enjoy the eye candy I have chosen to share and you look forward to my next fashion report! Whether you love it or hate it, fashion is forever changing and I can't help it, I LOVE IT and it brings me pleasure to share it with you!
Embrace Your Sparkle,
B

Be prepared to see the hints of the 80's coming back! Color blocking, bold bright colors and colored jeans! :
As well as 1950's fashion: Classics!:
