Headbands

There is nothing more frustrating than frizzy and untamed summer hair, literally it's the worst. Bad hair days can ruin many things, but your summer should not be one of them. Headbands are a trendy alternative to the untamed mess of hair a beach day often leaves you with. There are so many new options for headbands, from twist-knot, to beaded, to embellished, headbands have come a long way. Headbands are a must have accessory for this summer, they can add texture and color to any outfit, while also keeping your flyaway's tamed.

Color of the Season..Emerald Green

So every spring and summer season the fashion world names a new "it" color. The color that you must have for your wardrobe or else you're way behind on trends. This season the color the fashion experts have named the "seasons color" is emerald green. Last season mint green just was not bold enough to make the cut, so instead the better and bolder, emerald green is the color to wear. Emerald green is emerging everywhere, from handbags, headbands, phone cases, and dresses, you can't seem to miss it. I'll show you some of the latest items that have emerged on the fashion scene in this seasons "it" color.

High-Waisted Shorts

High-waisted shorts began to make an appearance in fashion trends last spring, and are coming back again this season in full force. For some people, this is a trend you either love or you hate. It can be difficult to find the perfect pair of high-waisted shorts, but I can assure you it is possible! Paired with the right tops and accessories, you can make these shorts look super trendy and still fashionable. Below, I will show you some examples of different ways to wear the shorts.

 

By adding a simple crop top with the shorts the outfit is casual. When paired with a sheer blouse the shorts can be dressed up. Printed, lace, denim, linen, these shorts come in a variety of styles so find one that flatters you!

Make A Splash This Summer

This is the time of year to start browsing for the latest swim suits of the season, that is if haven't already since spring break. This season the variety of bathing suits just keeps on growing. From color blocking, and fringe, to monokinis, the styles are endless. The colors and prints are bright and bold, sure to draw attention whether hanging out at the beach or at the pool. Throw a tank top and jean shorts over any of the bathing suits, for a casual beachwear look.

Outfits For A Rainy Day

You know Spring has officially sprung, when rain boots become a wardrobe staple. No one wants to risk ruining their favorite flats stomping through puddles. Rain boots are never something you look forward to wearing, and not the most comfortable shoe, yet they are still functional and appropriate.

Here, I will show you some cute way to work rain boots into outfits for class and weekends. 

If you're running to a few classes you may opt for a comfy outfit. I find leggings or straight leg yoga pants work best when tucking them into rain boots. Paired with a comfy sweater, casual tank top, and some jewelry the outfit still looks put together. You can even add printed or colored leggings if you're feeling bold!

This outfit is perfect for a weekend out with friends and family. Pairing colored skinny jeans with a basic tank and a sheer, lightweight cardigan, creates a casual yet fashionable outfit. Adding in statement jewelry pieces completes the outfit, and adds extra pops of color.
