Fashion Rx: Your weekly dose of what to wear!

I'm very excited to start showing off our new fall collection, but I've got one more transition look to take you from summer to fall in a breeze.  Speaking of breeze, wouldn't you want to make your breezy bohemian chic blouse last another season? Here's how.

The Cure: Boho bonus

Blouses like these are perfect for summer with their light airy flow, but add a few layers and it's fit for fall! For now topping those high-waisted cutoffs and adding a great pair of sandals is perfect for your favorite late summer music fest, but if you're thinking about ahead, layering can probably make a lot of your pieces last longer.  In this case grab a pair of black leggings and your favorite Frye's and you have extended the life of your wardrobe!

Resort Ready

Planning your vacation? Getting ready for that weekend getaway? Do you find that packing for these events sometimes proves more difficult than planning them in the first place?  With a few key pieces you can be!

The great thing about summer is how effortless dressing can be.  White bottoms, whether a skirt, shorts, or pants are the perfect starter, a couple tanks, a couple tees, all of various colors and patterns, a sundress, a great sandal, bathing suit w/ cover up and a bag that can double as a beach tote and you're all set! Can you add more, of course, do you need to? Not necessarily. Spend more time getting that r&r than worrying about what to wear!

Fashion Rx: Your Weekly dose of what to wear!

Well it's Memorial Day Weekend, which means picnics, barbecues, and pool parties.  Outdoor activities do not require dressing to the nines, instead you want to stay cool, comfortable, and chic as you battle the summer heat.

The Cure: Pleasant Picnic Picks

Easy, breezy, loose fitting silk is the way to go.  The lightweight, flowy material will keep you cool, choosing a spirited print will keep you in the fashionista spotlight.  Pair the tank with tailored shorts and flat leather sandals and you are picnic perfection.

Sporty and Spicy

So we've talked about lace, and florals, and uber-girly trends, but what about the girl who wants to break away from her tracksuit, but still maintain a sporty style?  InStyle magazine reports,

"Racing stripes, primary colors, weightless ease.  All the best parts of athletic wear have been crafted into shapes much hipper than any tracksuit jogging down the street.  The comfort level can't be better in these relaxed looks that are just right for spring."

How do you pull it off?

"Take advantage of sporty separates or dresses that offer body-conscious flexibility in fabrics like satin or cashmere that feel a bit luxe.  Use white as your base color, and don't weight yourself down with accessories--aviators or a bright watch are all you need to score. One surefire tip to keep it street-smart: Never wear any of it with sneakers."
