Dashing Denim

So… brightening your Spring wardrobe now includes your denim as well.  J Brand Jeans has an A-mazing line of “Haute Hues’ for their Spring collection of denim including: bright royal (cobalt), bright red, bright fuchsia as well as some pastel shades like pale pink and blue. The brighter shades have become one of the latest celeb trends and I must say I’m a fan! Would you rock colored denim?

Do You Have the Time?

Aaron’s birthday (the fiance) was April 26th, so of course I just asked him what he wanted (trust me, he’s pickier than I am!). His request: a black G-shock with a gold face. Simple enough… our friend Ant had just purchased a few so Aaron was able to see it and he knew which one he wanted. Then I remembered Liz had sent me an email about these watches ages ago! They can totally be unisex- her and her fiance have a few colors and they share. Brilliant! Happy Birthday to Aaron and I can borrow it when I want…

For his next gift I’ll get him a white one, I think it would go great with my spring ensembles. 🙂

Have A Bright and Happy Easter!

Unfortunately I’m too old to have mom buy me my Easter dresses anymore, but what’s Easter without a few new accessories to go with that new dress? Whether it’s church or a family dinner a nice dress and a bright bag is a must. My pick for today is the Furla “Candy” Satchel. It’s fun, bright and a great alternative to your Easter basket! 🙂

Happy Easter to all!

Juicy Love & Swimsuits

The time has come… bathing suit season! (some are rejoicing while others are squirming) At this point in my life I’m not especially looking forward to it, being 37 weeks pregnant. I do realize there are other women out there excited about the beach, the sun, a new bikini and sipping on a pina colada.

Here are a few fabulous bathing suits I would go for- if I was to put one on any time soon. 😉

Juicy Couture: Maisey Print bikini- love the print on this suit and the string bottoms are very ‘forgiving’ and don’t squeeze in all the wrong places. LOVE. Perfect for the bikini lover!

Juicy Couture: Miss Softee Ruffle Swimdress- Ah, yes… this will be a bit more up my alley for the summer. Vintage looking, chic and full coverage but still sexy. Picture huge straw hat, big shades and a sangria…*bliss. (I’d prefer it in black)

Happy Shopping! (remember it’s the fluorescent lighting in the dressing room, it’s not you!)

Lighten Up

Spring is here… which is quite tricky for me since all I wear and own is pretty much black. I’m trying my hardest to ‘lighten up’ so I’ve chosen a lot more blues to incorporate into my wardrobe. Along with a lighter, more colorful wardrobe I’m convinced I need a new bag to go with the look. It’s time to put the black Brahmin bag away and go for a lighter neutral bag. My first choice is a nude or tan shade! It’s a change from the black and will easily transition through the seasons and into fall and winter. Below are a few of my options- thoughts??
