Live a little, wear Lace!

One of last years fashion trends, Lace, is still here for 2014 and if you did not embrace it last year---here are a few tips to help get you in the mood for this year's LACE.

If you're of a certain age, wearing Lace might feel a little awkward, so here are some of my personal tips that I use to bring in a little lace and still feel age appropriate.

First, stay away from full on entire lace.  Unless, you're 21, it's probably going to come off as too much. Stick to a few accessory pieces that you can mix & match, pair with other items in your wardrobe. 

These lace items will go a long ways in your closet:

1.  Lace tee
2.  Lace sweater/overlay

Most important, here's what not to do while wearing Lace:
  • Keep black lace to a minimum.  Too much black lace just looks too harsh
  • Stay away from trimmings of Satin and lace.  This can end up looking like a nightgown or slip.
  • Keep your jewelry to a minimum when wearing lace.  Too much competition.  Let your lace be the accessory.
  • Keep it simple.  Lace can be a fun, expected look - but over done, will look like you tried too hard!

The above items perfect lace accessory items.  Pair the tee with a cropped jacket.  Layer the lace sweater over another tee or cami.  Many ways to wear these beautiful lace tops.

We're trending Spring

Time to clean out your closets and get ready for Spring!  Here in Northern California the temps are already glorious and it's time to unpack the fun stuff!  So what's new in Spring?  Personally, I'm not a slave to fashion "trendy" things---better to wear styles, colors, etc., that suit you the best.

However, it's good to add & update your wardrobe with some freshness---Spring is a great time to do that. Here are a few of 2014 Spring Fashion Trends....

#1:  PASTELS

Pastel colors are everywhere & can be challenging to wear.  Put with White and you can't go wrong.
These mineral wash-tees at Bugsy's Boutique, offer great fit and a feminine lace panel in 2 beautiful pastel colors:  peach and grey


 #2:  SHORT JACKETS

Biker jacket, crop jacket, short blazer---jackets are still going strong.  Pair the pastel t-shirt with a white linen jacket and you've got a great, fresh looking outfit.


#3:  ASYMMETRY

Hankerchief hem, hi-low, one-sided dip, etc.  I've always loved the asymmetrical hem line, the surprising, uneven hem and flirty flare that it gives material is a great way to draw the eye away from one area to another.  It's fun & expected.



#4:  OPPOSITES ATTRACT
The tried & true classic:  Black and White.  We love it and it's not going anywhere.  Here's a great classic with an updated look featuring a hi/low hem, strong abstract pattern, and black & white stripes.

What's up with Mineral Wash?

I just love the feel & texture of a mineral wash t-shirt.  Soft with great coloration.  I also like that the look is a little different from "tye-dye'---not quite as informal.  I recently found these mineral wash shirts with lace embellishments.  The colors are amazing and they feel great on!
