Perfect Transition Shoes

What shoes can transition from Summer to Fall?
Finding the perfect transition item can be a challenge, but when found they're the best items in anyone's closet. The item(s) can range from blouses, skirts, and most importantly shoes. Doesn't it feel great to be able to wear your favorite pair of platforms in the Summer and Fall? It can be a journey to find the perfect shoe that doesn't show too much toe but enough to be considered sexy for the weather. I have put together shoes that will fit perfectly into your wardrobe and a few suggestions of how to wear them.

KLITSCH by ALDO $110

This is a great color for both season. It can be a substitue for the summer favorite cognac tone. This shoe can be wore with jeans or dressed up with a jersey dress for the Fall.

MCSPIRIT by ALDO $100

The lovely cognac with the comfortable heel is the perfect shoe for the Fall and especially the Summer. This shoe can be easily worn with a summer dress and with any Fall fashion such as trousers and leggings.

CREGER from ALDO $90

Instead of the strappy formal sandal this is the perfect replacement in taupe. This would look great with any simple formal dress or you can add some funk to it and wear some stockings.

CARRLY from Steve Madden $69.97

This bulky platform is just right especially for any weather. I love this shoe the best because of the color and the studded details around the front of the heel.




All stores are now ready for Fall 2010, and have delivered plenty of shoes and array of styles and prices. Similar shoes can be found also in Bakers Shoes, Nine West, and VictoriasSecret.com. Happy shopping!

Trench Check: One-Pieces

Summer is finally here and everyone is heading to the beaches and the pools. Better yet, some of you may be going on vacation and bathing suits are the summer's #1 fashion accessory.

My all time favorite style has always been the one-piece. Even though I can wear two-pieces and look fabulous in them, the one-piece is classy and sophisticated, most importantly it is comfortable. You will not have to worry about anything popping out because it's all secure. Here are a few I picked out from online stores such as ASOS, DELIAS, TOPSHOP, ALLOY and AMERICAN APPAREL. You can also find even cheaper styles at Old Navy, H&M, Quicksilver, and many more. Happy Shopping!

Summer Essentials: Jumpsuits & Rompers

TREND CHECK:

JUMPSUITS & ROMPERS

The summer's heating up and every female wants to look her best. But when the heat is so annoying and uncomfortable, we often settle for the plain t-shirt and denim shorts. Although there are plenty of alternatives to this combo, many suffer from the anxiety of figuring out how to look cute under the sun. My best suggestion to you, is the jumpsuit. As shown (Alexander Wang to left...Acne to right), they come in a variety of lengths, colors and just about every designers has a selection. Not only are they comfortable and versatile, but they come in one simple piece which gives us one less thing to worry about.


Vena Cava & Gaspard Yurkievich

We're sure your favorite retail store will have rompers and jumpsuits in stock. So be sure to check your local H&M, The Gap, Forever 21 - or go for the designer brands if your pockets allow it. Happy shopping!

Will rompers & jumpsuits be a part of your wardrobe this summer?

ToP THiS: Summer Ready Nails

Ladies, the summer is almost here and that means this: shopping for new summer outfits! Right? No. Instead of spending money on new clothes, invest in some new polishes that will jazz up any outfit. This season is all about exploring matte (shine-less) nailcolors. Here are the top five colors of this summer season. As the summer approaches, Look out for these trendy colors, and remember you read it here first!

*A link to purchace these polishes has been provided for your shopping convience*

Gargantuan Green
Take a chance. Go Matte! OPI Matte Nail Lacquer does not last as long as the original OPI Nail Lacquer. When wearing Matte Nail Lacquer, making a statement is all that matters! Do an all-matte nail, or do a matte nail with a gloss tip. You can even try a gloss nail with a matte tip. Do not use a base coat, top coat, drying drops or hand lotion when wearing Matte. >> Eye gotta have it! <<

Gray
New Zoya Matte Velvet nail color by Zoya is not intended to be worn with a base coat, top coat, or speed dryer of any kind. Due to the unique matte formulation, color is not as long wearing as traditional nail color. A completely clean, dry nail surface yields the best results for matte nail color wear. For best results make sure to always prepare the nail with Zoya Remover+ prior to applying color. >> Eye gotta have it! <<



Pinkish Purple
Professional Nail Lacquer in full bloom! Beautiful shades and amazing wearability. Toluene, Formeldehyde and DBP -Free Formula! >> Eye gotta it! <<




Yellow
The fabulous shades of OPI nail polish are beautiful, yet sassy. You are sure to find nail polish colors that match your mood, your character and your wardrobe! All shades provide the ultimate in performance and wear. >> Eye gotta have it! <<




Coral
Express yourself. Here's your palette. A full spectrum of crèmes that never overwhelms yet keeps you fully fashion covered. >>Eye gotta have it!<<

Which colors will you be trying this summer?
