Ruffle N' Flow




Ruffles and flowing tops are staples this Spring. Here to stay for yet another fashionable season are the shirt dress and the tunic. Dress up either one of these hot commodities with a metallic belt that adds flare for a hot date or let them flow loosely for a laid-back, yet chic look fit for a lunch date with the girls. The revival of harem pants is also in full effect for Spring!! These aren't your typical Hammer pants from the eighties ladies. Some feel the harem jumpsuit is a fashion disaster but I think its sheer genius; the love child of elegance and comfortability. The best are the wrap-around trouser jumpsuits because they aren't overly baggy in the thighs, adding just the right amount of flattery to a woman's curves. Pair these soft and flowing pants up with gladiator heels or platforms and accessorize with a couple stacked bangles. If you're on a budget, Forever 21 has harem pants starting as low as $15.80 and Target.com has tunic tops on clearance for just $5.00

What is Style?











I view style as one's artistic outlet through which they can exude an overall sense of self. Whether it be music, fashion, or art, a person can develop a style all their own that best portrays their personality. Style can be thought of as a medium through which people pass on their thoughts, beliefs and emotions oftentimes in hopes of inspiration. This blog site is specifically dedicated to fashion: an industry that clearly exudes style and creativity. Every designer has their own sense of style that they use to inspire consumers to not just buy their products, but to develop their own sense of style. Inspiration to discover your likes and dislikes, a sense of empowerment in order to take control and wear what YOU like, not necessarily what everyone else does...Rock your skinny jeans with your fav high top Nikes, go ahead and throw some suspenders on your leggings, you may even prefer the grunge look from the nineties. Whatever it may be, take the initiative to find yours and when you do: embrace, live, and most of all heart your style.
