White Dresses

Now that the warm weather is finally on its way, it is time to take your white dresses out of the closet (or go out and purchase a few!). White dresses are a spring essential and they can look good at any occasion from the beach to the club.

“White is more inviting than black. You can play it up any way you want. Plus,
it’s more feminine and girlie” – Kristin Cavallari

Here are some tips for wearing a white dress:
1. KEEP IT BASIC – avoid wearing a white dress with dark accessories. Keep it radiant and peaceful.
2. MIX IT UP – combine a variety of different accessories from vintage to luxury.
3. BARE IT ALL – let your makeup and hair be as natural as can be. If you overdo it, you may ruin the look.

How do you wear your white dresses?

Layering Necklaces

Why only wear one necklace when you can wear two, three or maybe even ten? One of the biggest trends this season in accessories are layering necklaces! This is an extremely chic and stylish look, if you do it right that is. No matter how many layers you plan on wearing, they all MUST fall at different points; this is the most crucial point when it comes to layering your necklaces.

If you are looking for a more classic look then layering two or three necklaces would be your best bet. If you want to be over the top runway style with a variety of different necklaces then make sure they work well together and that you are wearing a basic outfit with solid colors.

Jumpsuits

Usually the jumpsuit would be something one would associate with kids; this is not the case anymore. Jumpsuits have made their way into today’s fashion scene and are slowly being picked up by many celebrities and fashionistas. Jumpsuits are going to be one of this summers must have pieces. They can create a sophisticated and nicely put together look for the wearer, and the best part is it is only one piece of clothing!

The jumpsuit is also extremely versatile. You can find jumpsuits to wear to the beach or even to the Oscars. They also come in a variety of different styles, materials and patterns. For a more glamorous look, style it up with a pair of heels and jewelry. For an everyday look, style it up with some flats and a nice purse.
