Spring is finally here!

“I’d have to say April 25th. Because it’s not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.”

Miss Congeniality had it right! This office is buzzing with excitement for Spring, and the idea that we get to finally put away our heavy coats, mittens and snow boots!

In celebration of the first day of Spring and in hopes for warmer weather, we decided to put together our Top 10 List of reasons we are most excited for Spring!!

1) SANDALS. SANDALS. SANDALS – that of course, show off our fresh pedicures!

3) Coral Lipstick

DIY Halloween Costumes

At between $29 and $39 with free shipping these dresses are a steal.

Grab some red paint or make some fake blood at home with red food coloring and go crazy. Throw it all over the dress.

Cut up the bottom of the dresses to make tattered edges. You’ve just created a monster bride, bridesmaid or prom queen. Add some scary makeup and you’re good to go.

Happy Haunting!

 

 

 

Transition Time

Have you been shopping lately?  Fall clothing & back to school items have already hit the shelves as we near mid-August.  This exciting seasonal time brings thoughts of pumpkin treats (cake, lattes, candles, pies, etc….I can’t get enough!) and fall fashion.  While ruffles and cap toe pumps are predicted to rule this season, so are bell bottoms!  Say goodbye to your too-skinny skinnies and pick up a pair of tailored 70’s style bell bottom flares.  I am welcoming this trend in jeans and pants as I find it much sexier and flattering to women who have some curves.  Look out for more fall trends in Anna Wintour’s coveted September issue of Vogue, with Lady Gaga gracing this year’s cover.  So let’s enjoy some final days of sun and sand and prepare for a labor day barbecue while plotting our fashion moves for fall!  Touche, and happy shopping.
