Short and Simple!!!!!



As the air warms and summer takes shape, shed the layers and add a short to your wardrobe! Shorts are fun and playful, but can also be sexy and chic! Shorts are what's hot for summer '09! If you've got great, Tina Turner legs or even working on getting fab legs, there are many flattering lengths to satisfy any shape! From daisy duke, to paper-bag waist, to French Riviera, floral prints. So many styles, colors, and lengths to pick from....Skies the limit, but keep it simple, especially if you are over 30, like myself! Here are some fun options for all ages, sizes, and shapes!!! Styles featured here can be found at shopbop, Target.com, Anthropologie, Forever21, Cusp, and Pixie Market.

Pearls of Wisdom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





When I think of pearls, I think of playing dress up in my mommy's jewels and pretending to be the belle of the ball! I recall getting my first pearl set: earrings and necklace and I also remember breaking my necklace. Clearly I wasn't ready for the responsibility of pearls. Fast forward...Today, Pearls continue to be a staple in any woman's closet, whether real or faux, pearls always complete the look! This summer, pearls are taking on a whole new look. Not so retro, but still classically, chic! I love the layered look and colored pearls(i.e. black pearls, which my hubby graced me with one birthday) add quite a splash of sophistication to an otherwise, casual look! JCrew has really taken this trend full-force! Looking for a more affordable outlet??? Try Ebay! You are sure to find some great, vintage, affordable pearls there! Just search for pearls or vintage pearl jewelry! I also spied some really cute, non-traditional looks at Anthropologie! Or, go ahead and invest in Tiffany pearl necklace. It is sure to become a family heirloom to be passed on from generation to generation!!! Whatever you do, keep it chic!
