Gotta Get Em'

Lace.

Lace is a huge trend this season. There are many ways to wear it, it can be elegant, chic and provocative. You can pair it with anything, a structured jacket, a pencil skirt, even jeans. I like the look of the fitted long sleeve lace tees. However you choose to wear it, WEAR IT! It's a great trend to take up on.

The Pencil Dress

The pencil dress is 100% unadulterated chic. It has a modern take on an older silhouette. This one provides coverage and is meant to hug the hips like a glove, though it's a little loose on the model. You can pair a nice little number like this with a blazer, platform pump, and detailed clutch. It also can be worn as a pencil skirt if you wear a blouse over it up top, or even a simple sleeveless shirt if you wear it with a high waisted bottom. With the pencil dress you can be as creative or non-creative as you'd like.

Paperbag Waist

Pant

I think pants like this are fantastic. The detailing of the paperbag waist just draws the eye to the smallest part of the woman's body while emphasizing the hips. It can easily tie a look together. They're best worn with full or low volume blouses, tucked in, or cropped tops. They're a great piece to have in your closet because you can do so much with it. Try rolling them up to create a cropped pant, or throwing on a silky blazer for work. One thing is certain, this trend beats the average dress pant.

Quilted Purses.

Quilted purses are super cute. The quilted detail is exquisite and bold. When you first notice it you have to do a double take, and then stare. It's definatley an older look. I really like the look of the vintage Chanel quilted bags, but they are way overpriced. I don't feel obligated to go designer when getting a quilted handbag. Other brands look just as good, some even better, this one in particular goes to show that you can get beautiful bags at affordable prices.

Ultra Feminine

Feminine Blouses like these are great for softening up looks and giving a light, airy womanly touch. If you have bold shoulders or a masculine frame that you want to down play, throw on one of these. Blouses as soft as this one scream, "I'm a delicate flower!" and sometimes that's the vibe you want to give off. When buying feminine pieces go for light, water colors because they usually look better with this style.

Culturally Inspired

How bold? This sweater is absolutely adorable. Being part Cherokee I gravitated towards this sweater. Pieces that are inspired by cultures other than your own are fun to work with. Don't ever feel restricted when it comes to this, it's an homage. Wear pieces that tell a story or give an outlook into someones background. When doing so you are sure to inspire.
