LALALA... LUCITE HEELS & BAGS!

Clear colored lucite is a hot trend for summer.  In your footwear, the heel of your high heel or sandal or in a wedge with lucite adds flare to your feet.  Most shoes are showing clear lucite, but brighter colors such as pink and orange are also popular. Lucite bags are a fashion-forward accessory to carry with you.  A lucite clutch is an easy way to wear this trend as you are going out for the evening and not typically carrying much in your bag.  Though lucite is also very trendy for beach bags.  Lucite jewelry and sunglasses are easy, inexpensive ways to incorporate this trend into your look. 


Celebrities are working the lucite trend at any age.

VACATION STYLE for MEMORIAL DAY & BEYOND

As Memorial Day approaches vacation season is kicking off.  Depending on where you will be for Memorial Day and any other trips you have planned for the summer, here are key pieces and looks for each type of vacation. 

Beach

Maxi dresses and skirts, rompers, halter tops, mini skirts, and cute cover-up dresses that can be worn from the beach to the bar are essentials.  Straw clutches and totes take you from the beach to a beach barbecue or beach party.  Think boho chic with elements of glam on your sandals, jewelry, and sunglasses.

 

Mountains & the Country

Think easy comfortable cuts with flirty, feminine details.  Be prepared for the outdoors with flat sandals and espadrilles.  Spice up your look with cool handbags, jewelry, hats, and sunglasses.

 

 

City

City chic looks transition easily from day-to-night.  Walk in to any restaurant or bar and and have a look of elegance.  Key pieces include silk dresses, trendy shades, clutches, high-heel sandals with design details or bold colors, and tailored shorts-metallic is a fave to dress up the looks.  For ladies over 50, an elegant maxi dress with a belt is a chic option.  For evening, try a sheath dress with embellishment or a fit and flare dress for daytime.
