Eureka! - Wall Art For The Fashionista

So this week, I had a light bulb moment.  I suddenly had an idea to create some timeless fashion prints.  I did my best to infuse my own personality and originality but I wanted them to be classic and able to be mixed and matched with other wall art so I kept it clean and simple.  Let me tell you, this was so much fun!  Hope you like them.  They are all available at www.alligatorbay.etsy.com

The Boho Chic Skirt - A Fabulous Blast From The Past

A few days ago my sister sent me an email with all kinds of fabulous boho chic skirts attached that she had found on the net.  It took me back.....way back and brought back so many good memories.  I remember the textures, originality and swag of those skirts.  They were daring and unapologetic.  Any girl wearing one of them, you just knew she could care less what you thought...she was her own woman in every sense of the word.

Somewhere along the way though, clothes became a lot more tame.

Streamlined.  

Standardized

Sensible

Normal

 Now, only the brave, eccentric, hippies, or out of the box personalities wear these skirts.  

So sad.

And so I bring to you my fav Boho chic skirts.  It really doesn't get any better than this.  I have a closet full of them and I wear them ever so proudly.  All it takes is a few modern touches to work this look.  Whether it is shoes and accessories or a simple tee shirt, this is a super easy style to modernize and rock.

But don't just take my word for it, check these pics out and see for yourself.  Enjoy!

Fashion - In The Nude!

Aha, got ya didn't I? No, not naked people....NUDE COLORS. I have always liked them, even before they became a runway trend. Long before. I am so happy that finally these beautiful colors are getting the recognition and respect they deserve!

Nudes are so sophisticated, smart and darn versatile.  They are neutrals really.......and neutrals go with EVERYTHING.  Who wouldn't want that?  Nudes also come in so many different shades, there are no shortage of colors to keep you looking fabulous!  I personally love peach, pinks and creme tones because they are most flattering to my complexion but there are so many other color variations.

One of the advantages of wearing nude colors is the fact that it can actually trick the eye.  For example, if you wear nude shoes your legs look longer.  The same is true for fingernail polish, your fingers appear to be more slender and longer than with more vibrant polish. Try it, it works!

Layering different nude shades and textures also can create the most romantic, feminine and couture look......which I personally adore. So go ahead, choose a shade that flatters your  complexion and go nude this summer.  You're gonna love it!

Okay. Am just kidding.

This bag is just gorgeous.  Its a great size to carry your stuff and a very modern approach to the straw bag. Oh!, and its only around $50.00 Love!!!

The color palette on this bag is very unusual and appealing to me.  I really like the shape and size too.

A bib necklace will make the most basic outfit sing! Its truly a must-have piece. This one goes with everything but has a little bling to it.  What's not to love about this...

I have a thing for army green.  Its sophisticated, a little naughty and a whole lotta nice.

These sandals will make an ordinary outfit spectacular.  The fact that its red is just marvelous!

This bag is just beautiful.  The straw texture and color makes for a very dramatic and standout piece. This would look great with shorts and cute sandals.

I really like the nod to romance in this look, it is so feminine and delicate, but confident at the same time.

I love the nautical to this look.  A very classy look with just enough sparkle from the gold accents.

You cannot go wrong with clogs and wedges.  They are comfortable and effortlessly chic.  And who wouldn't want that....

This look is fierce.  I like the fact that you can get so many different looks from this dress.  Its like a blank canvas. Add a blazer, heels, scarf, vest, colorful belt or a cardigan and you can create new looks time after time after time....lol, you get the point.  You can do a lot with this.

Well, thats all folks, for more fabulousity be sure to check out www.shopstyle.com. Cherio!
