Bling in the New Year: Finding the Perfect New Years Outfit

New Years Eve is right round the corner and personally I love to pile on the glitter, add some shimmer, and dance the night away in an outfit the screams “Bling in the New Year!” Seriously, this is the one day of the year where you can actually use the phrase, ” the more glitter the better!” Keeping that in mind here are some great ways to put together the perfect New Years Outfit that will have you turning heads all night!

This New Years season, sparkle and sequins are in! To get some of the glitter-factor try a dress like the Solemio Bling in the New Year Dress! Adorable taupe colored dress has a sweetheart sequin bodice that is so glamorous and has a sweet touch with the asymmetrical floral lace skirt! If you want to keep with the shiny sequin route, you will love the Solemio Let’s Toast Dress! Super cute color block shift dress has a loose fitting white top with a body con all sequin skirt! Super sexy and great for a New Years Eve Party! Black is another great color for New Years! You can even have a glitz and glam moment with the Solemio Glitter-ator Dress in Black! Sexy and simple black body con dress has a few surprises with an asymmetrical sequin strap and part of bodice along with a keyhole slit at bust! High low hems are so fun and perfect for the event in the Mystic gold With Envy Dress! Strapless black dress has a gold embroidered bodice with sexy cutouts and trendy high low hem! Perfect for a romantic dinner on New Years Eve!

 

Your shoes on New Years Eve should speak for themselves! Add some sparkle to your LBD with the Delicious Joy Heel in the metallic silver color with encrusted rhinestones on heel! You can also go for a more luxurious shoe with the black velvet Delicious Shape Velvet Heel! These add a pop of sparkle with rhinestones on platform and heel!

 

When it comes to party hopping, you don’t want to be lugging around a huge purse! Try something sassy like the Secret City Metallic Clutch in Pewter that’s super lightweight and has rhinestones and studs on front! Perfect for a celebration! If you love a crossbody bag you will the the Little Coco Clutch in Silver to hold just what you need and add some shine to your outfit!

Winter Trend Alert: Winter White

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas… and one that is acceptable after Labor Day! Luckily one of the newest winter trends is head-to-toe Winter White! This light bright trend was seen all over the Fall 2012 runways since designers love to break old cliche fashion rules like “no wearing white after labor day.” The winter white trend is embracing the color of the season, snow, and dressing yourself in white from your top to your shoes! Celebrities like Miranda Kerr and Jennifer Lopez have been spotted in white separates like a blazer, top, pants, and shoes all in white! The red carpet is another great place to spot the winter white trend! Just recently Anne Hathaway wore a white cold shoulder long sleeve gown at the Les Miserables premier while Carmen Electra wore a sophisticated white dress that was accented with gold and had sexy cutouts! You think you can rock the Winter White trend, well of course you can!

Wearing all white can seriously be intimidating and I know this first hand! But that doesn’t mean that you can’t partake in the Winter White Trend! Start by adding some white accessories to your wardrobe like the Head in the Clouds Infinity Scarf in Ivory or the Let it Snow Ear Warmer in White to add a cold weather touch to your outfit! For a holiday party, look like a snow angel in the Alythea Heart of Gold Dress in Ivory with some cute pumps and a clutch! For your family dinner and holiday gatherings put on the Love Stitch Surprise Back Top in White or the Solemio Lace It Up Top Ivory to add a softer touch to your outfit! You could also steel some of the Kardashian- swag and wear the Lush Tuxedo Blazer to a holiday party and rock the menswear and winter white trend all together!

One of my favorite  Fall Trends is definitely Jewel Tones and inspired by all of the lovely gem colors I keep seeing around our shop, we will be doing a 4 part blog about the various types of jewel tones you can rock this fall!

Let’s start with a bang with Ruby! Also known as the birthstone for July babies, the ruby is a deep dark  gem that is rich with different shades of red. among seeing ruby all over the runways of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, many celebrities have been dawning the color of ruby associated so easily with this time of year. Stars like Maria Sharapova, Emma Watson, and Kristen Bell have been spotted in Valentino who is notorious for being fond of the color red!

The great thing about wearing ruby red items is that it is a statement color that literally looks good on everyone! It can be dressed up or down for almost any occasion and will send the message of your confidence. For a sexier look, the Solemio All Wrapped Up Dress is the best color red mixed with a structured modern body con dress! You can also spruce up any old t shirt and jeans with the Solemio Caught in a Net Jacket in Ruby red that adds a trendy touch with its cropped shape and netted back. So if you are feeling drab over the cold gloomy weather, just slip into the jewel tone red to boost your day and your confidence! You’re going to turn heads with this great jewel tone!

Ideas to Decorate Your Halloween Pumpkin

Every year I so look forward to carving pumpkins in preparation for Halloween but every year I find myself racking my brain for new ideas. To inspire not only myself but also you, I found some super easy and fun fashionable ways to decorate your pumpkin for this truly spooky holiday!

Bling-ed Out

What girl doesn’t love to sparkle? I seriously fell in love when I cam across this perfectly glittery patch of pumpkins! Its super easy to do as well! All you need is some rhinestone in all different shapes and sized (preferably ones used for scarp booking) and some super glue! Make sure you wash your pumpkin before apply any jewels, add some glue to the back of the gems and start sticking!

Chevron it to Me!

One of my favorite prints from this season has got to be the chevron print so I though, “Why not put that on a pumpkin!” (Light-bulb!) All you need is some painting tape and your favorite color paint! just tape off the pumpkin in a chevron print and paint over the exposed areas. Let sit to dry and peel off the tape! Voulah! A fashionable chic chevron printed pumpkin!

All Wrapped Up!

If you want to go for a more whimsical dark and ominous feeling on your front porch, just wrap your pumpkins in black tulle and secure with some fun colored ribbon! Its super cheap, easy, and will add a level of sophistication and magic to your festive fall setting!
