SHEER BLOUSES FOR DAY & NIGHT
Sheer blouses are a gorgeous way to update your look this spring/summer. Printed blouses in bold patters and bright colored blouses are a great option for work or a night on the town.
Pair it with a cami tank top in a contrasting or complimentary color. White, black, and navy tank tops are always safe choices for a work environment to wear underneath a sheer blouse. But try it with a bold spring color tank or a skin color tank top to add a little pizazz. Style example might be an orange sheer blouse with a navy tank top and a white pencil skirt. Add chunky gold jewelry to compliment the look. Not sure you can wear this to work? Add a three quarter length sleeve blazer or a flowy cardigan over top.
Fit Tip: If the blouse is flowy, pair it with a fitted bottom to show your shape. If it is a wrap top that is sheer you can wear a more forgiving skirt or pants with it.
Pair this striped blouse with a tangerine skirt and a fuchsia tank top and bold jewelry. For a more casual look try slim fit white capri pants with a tangerine, fuchsia, or bright blue tank top.

MAXI DRESSES...Wearing it at ALL AGES For ALL OCCASSIONS
By now everyone has heard about maxi dresses and skirts, but do you know how to wear them? Clients say all the time, I can't wear that look, I'm told old, or I'm not Bohemian. The idea is how to make these easy to wear pieces work for you.
There are different fits to maxi dresses and skirts. Some are very billowy and flowing while others have a slimmer fit. The shape of the maxi dress or skirt determines the type of shoe to wear with it and the fit of a top, or topper (jacket, blazer).
Guidelines for your age:
45 +: Monochromatic looks great for you. The neckline determines how much you feel comfortable revealing. Cowl neck maxi dresses are very flattering neckline and usually loose enough to hid any figure flaws in the mid-section. If wanting to show your cleavage a little more and not concerned with the skin at your chest area, go for one color with a deeper front v.
Splendid Cowl Maxi Dress, $138 (Strawberry or Black)
Great dress to add a thin knit long cardigan in white or taupe. Add an animal skin belt over it in taupes and whites with a gold buckle. Wear with a heel or a jeweled flat sandal.

30-45: Deep V Necks, High Slits up the thigh, stripes, and patterns all work well. Go for what works with your style personally and professionally. Deep V Neck and Thigh Slits make dresses in appropriate for most corporate work environments, creative fields can still work this look.
Wear this dress with a flat but metallic sandals for day. Add large gold cuff and large gold statement earrings.

Under 30: Go with flirty designs and prints. Wear for casual days on the weekends or go dressier for work or at night. The key to wearing this at work is to wear a blazer or sweater with it to look more professional. Avoid crazy prints when at work, unless you are in a creative field (magazine, design, styling, etc.).
