Jewelry Ideas

Jewelry is a great way to add taste to an outfit. There is a huge range of jewelry that you can get whether you decide to splurge or not. I would recommend matching the color of your jewelry, meaning wearing all gold or all silver. This automatically makes your outfit look more put together. Also, everyone should have a simple set that they wear everyday for example, a simple necklace, stud earrings and a thin bangle with a matching ring. You can spend as much or as little money you want on jewelry. You can find some cute sets at Forever 21 for less than ten dollars or buy real gold or silver. A tip for jewelry that is prone to rust, when you buy it coat it with a clear top coat of nail polish, this ensures the color will not rust for a longer period of time. I would also keep a more fancy set of jewelry for when you want to go to a special event or dress up a simple outfit. You can easily find bling that looks real for cheap from any store like Forever 21 or even Walmart to wear for special events. In this set I would try to match as well. The number one thing to make your jewelry classy and cute is to make sure it is well coordinated, if you have a diamond studded necklace I would pair that with diamond stud earrings and a bracelet that incorporates a diamond stud as well. Another type of jewelry is string jewelry, these are super cute and a great option for people that do not like the diamonds or chains.

Spring Shoes

Spring is officially here which means switching out boots for sandals. Shoes are a great accessory to an outfit and add so much. Some everyday shoes that match many outfits include slip on Vans and Birkenstocks. You can wear these everyday to school with a casual tee and shorts. I would also recommend getting athletic shoes like Adidas Nmd´s, but in a lighter color for the spring. Some more dressy shoes include the classic sandals which you can get from anywhere, or you could get the Tory Burch ones if you want to splurge a little. Both ways they add a simple element to a more dressed up outfit.

How to Find your Style

Finding your own style can be difficult, even more so when there are a bunch of trends. It gets really easy to get caught up in these trends and not know your own style. My first tip is to find inspiration from your style icons, the best place for this is on Instagram since there a lot of fashion or beauty gurus who post their outfits often. Save a few outfits for reference when you want to get clothes. My next tip would be to decide whether or not that style of clothing is appropriate for your age and day to day activities. If so, go out and try to find some basic and inexpensive alternatives which are similar to the style you are looking into. Next clean out your closet, if you end up really liking this style, clean out your closet so you can get a visual what you need to maintain your style. These are all the tips I have for for finding your style!Image result for fashion closet

Bag Inspiration

Bags add so much to an outfit but, it is difficult to find the perfect handbag or wallet for everyday use. Here are some recommendations for some cute and simple bags . I would recommend starting off with a wallet or a wristlet, some cute ones include a Kate Spade or a Michael Kors in light pink or black. If you are looking into buying a bag, I would recommend a longchamp, it is not too expensive compared to designer bags, but they are cute and simple and match most outfits. If you are looking into a fancier bag I would recommend a more structured handbag from Michael Kors or Tory Burch. Another accessory that is really cute and popular is the Louis Vuitton coin purse, this is a higher end and more expensive type but it would be a nice birthday or Christmas gift.

Styling dresses

Dresses are a classic piece that you can wear to many events during all seasons. They are typically worn more in the warmer times, and for more dressed up events but that does not always apply. If you are dress shopping and want some for the winter, try to find dresses that are long sleeved, also try to stay away from very floral prints since they can look like a summer outfit. Wearing dresses expose your legs, so try to get some nude colored tights to keep them warm. It is also very helpful to wear over the knee boots as well, these will keep you warm during the chilly weather. Something else that will help is a trench coat, these are so fashionable and add a lot to a simple dress. These tips will ensure that you will stay warm and look fashionable at the same time!

Accessories for the wintertime!

It’s January which means it is pretty cold here in Sterling. Fashion is all about layering and accessories. One common accessory is a cute scarf. You can buy one anywhere, and they add so much to a simple top and jeans! Another thing I would keep in your closet is a pair of over the knee boots, they are really cute to wear and you can wear it with a dress or skirt to keep your legs warm! Another accessory that keeps you warm is tights, they will make it so much easier to wear a dress in the cold.

Fashion tips and tricks part two

Fashion can be very time consuming and complicated sometimes. There are a few tips and tricks to make your outfits better and make your life a little easier. The first trick is to stretch tight shoes, take two freezer bags and put them into the shoes and freeze overnight this will expand your shoes gently. If you have shoes that are too small, put them on with socks and blowdry your feet. If you ever break a powder makeup product grind the product completely and put it back in it’s orginal container and use rubbing alcohol to smooth it over and let it dry overnight, it’ll work the same way it used to!

Layering Clothes

Winter season is coming up so that means more clothes! A big part of fashion is layering to make your outfits more suitable and fashionable for the winter. A cute trend is wearing a skirt with a sweatshirt and long boots. Another trend includes layering with hoodies, for example wearing a hoodie under a light jacket. Some stores with cute hoodies and jackets to layer include forever 21, pacsun, and hollister.
