Shining Through The Rain

 YOU CAN SHINE BRIGHT, EVEN WHEN IT RAINS

The weather forecast calls for rain, however your fashion forecast dose not have to call for dull. Lets put some looks together that will have you looking fresh and fab on these rainy days

Daytime Look

Boyfriend Jeans
Floral Jeans or Pants
Wooden wedges

Lets pair your ripped boyfriend jeans (cuff the bottom) with a white t-shirt or tank.  Finishing the look with a colored pair of wooden wedges.


Accessories the look with a great clutch and bracelets .

You can dress down this look by switching your wedges for converse!!

Floral Jeans (Trend Alert!!!)
Choose the print you like, there is a large variety, so look around. If your shade has blues, grab a light blue button down shirt from your boyfriend or husband's closet, leaving two button from the top undone. You can choose to keep this look loose or you can tie it up for a fitted look. You can also pair your jeans with your chambray denim shirt. Either way, super cute!!!

Night Affair!!!

Blues and Greens

Lets choose navy shorts and pair them with a lighter shade of blue shirt or blouse. If the shorts calls for belt use a totally different shade of blue or silver belt. Accessorize with chunky silver chain if you choose blue belt, if you choose silver belt, no chain please. Pull the look together with nude sandals for the blue belt choice. Silver belt use silver sandals.

Lets Go Green!!!
Lets pair green shorts with a printed green shirt (looks great but expected)
Try pairing your green shorts with yellow or orange shirt. Accessorize with a printed green multi colored clutch.
Adding Gold sandals or wedges with gold earrings to finish the look.

*** try using the same technique to update your work wear look***

RAINY DAY PROJECT!!
Are you still holding on to a t-shirt  that dose not fit, but you just cant give it up? Is it the logo, the graphic or the picture that keeps you putting it  back in the drawer?

LETS REMIX IT!!! ( no sewing necessary)
Grab a pair of scissors
2 boxes of safety pins
New t-shirt

Cut out the graphic, pic or logo from the old shirt and place it on the new shirt securing it with the safety pins. The more pins, the better, and please make sure they are uniformed. (tops and bottoms in the same direction) You can add even more of a splash to this look if, you spray paint the pins first in a cool color. Try it!!!!!

Don't forget that a mani/pedi in a fresh summer color is an instant update to any summer look.
   

Great color!!!

What I learned this weekend !!!!

For a quick mani makeover, try press on nails!! You heard me right !! They are better than ever!! You can find them in your local drug stores and in great colors, too.
