Instant hemming in a snap!


Yes, in a snap literally!

Directions for use:

1. Fold your pants the the desired length

2. Snap the hem gems

You are set to go!

Solution to:

1. Organization disaster with hemmed pants vs. non hemmed pants

2. Costs less than tailoring

3. Use the same pant with heels or flats


What do you think of this fun idea?

If you want more information you must check out their site http://www.hemgems.com/

Give me your thoughts,

How to add color to your neutral outfits



Ladies stuck in neutrals? Don't want to spend a lot on Summer clothing (especially since it started late)?

I have the solution! Make accessory purchases with color. Don't be afraid to mix and match a little.

This outfit consists of:

1. A necklace ( Gold Ice Pearl Necklace $50 @ renttherunway.com) This piece can go from Spring/Summer to Fall/Winter
2. Flowy top (Daina top $100 @musthaves.dk) Nice and flowy, great with fitted pants
3. Cropped Pant (Monogram Crinkle Pant $80 @ bananarepublic.com) A must have because there are other bottoms to wear besides denim!
4. Floral Flats ( Pointy floral Printed Flats $75 @ yesstyle.com) Everyone has a flat with buckles, try something different
5. Leather Pouch ( Ted Baker 'Bobble' Patent leather pouch $95 @ Nordstrom) What a nice color, great for a night out or for a pop of color to your outfit
6. The watch (Royale Watch $115 @ endless.com) Watches show sophistication

You wear a watch everyday and take your handbag everywhere, use them to your advantage!
Which accessory would you add to your outfit?

Pride Perfect

This multi tasking lady needed my advice FAST she had only a few hours before going out and had to wear this orange tube top for a work event with the Pride Parade. She said," Tannya, the only thing I can think of wearing with this top is black pants, but then I feel so Halloween. What do I need?" I told her to get a cropped white pant to keep the top more casual and fun then add texture to the outfit with snakeskin shoes.

Talk about deals!

The Kenneth Cole pants were $36.97 @ Nordstrom Rack
The Snakeskin Shoes were $11 @ Payless
Tube top and necklace came from her closet

She is all about making a bold statement. The textured shoes added a wow factor to the two basic pieces. Dilemma Solved!

XOXO,

A basic piece for busy women

Your go to piece this season will be a blazer. There is no other piece that will add instant chic.

If you are wearing a basic tee, a printed top, denim, or an a-line skirt you will not have to think twice before grabbing this jacket and leaving the house.

To add flair wear your favorite heels, to make it edgy strut the town in comfy boots, and to make a statement wear an eye catching piece of jewelry.

I have searched the best online:


Petites



Halogen Boyfriend Jacket $98 @ Nordstrom


This goes past the hips but this boyfriend jacket is closer to the body and creates a cool casual look.


Pop of Color



Marc by Marc Jacobs $258 @ Shopbop.com


I heart this outfit, the color and cut make this look powerful rather than girly. The punch of color is perfect to add to your neutral look.


Plus Size



Heather Grey Jersey Knit $48 @ Torrid


So comfy and goes with everything. You won't even feel like you are wearing a piece that is tailoring your look.


Flattering Fit, Unique Design Elements



Monrow Twill Ruffle Jacket $201


There is nothing better than a black blazer. But why not carry basic pieces with unique elements to make it your own? If you want to make a statement, this is your piece. It looks great over patterned tops and tames down flowy blouses.


Neutral and Light Weight




Heritage A-Symmetrical Jacket $120 @ Banana Republic


This is light weight and a great casual piece for running around during the day. This can be paired with jeans and your favorite tee.
