Popping Peplum

If you want to make your outfit pop wear the Peplum top!! Its the "IN" top of the season right now and it can add that something extra to your skirt, shorts, or pants.

It can be flirty and sweet yet sexy and sultry...depending on how you accessorize and style. With many colors and many variations of prints there is a peplum top out there to suit everyones' styles.

What is also great about the Peplum is it creates an hour glass appearance giving you the appearance of a smaller waist.

Peplum dresses are also great options but I prefer the top because you can change your bottoms and create a variety of different looks.

FRIED for FRYE!!!!

One thing that has me sizzling this season is FRYE!! Ahh, the smell of leather.  Rustic yet elegant, classic yet sturdy, the craftsmanship is superb and any gal would be lucky to adorn her feet with such comfort and beauty.

I was one lucky girl to discover FRYE’S ‘Melissa Trapunto’ boot during Nordstrom’s Anniversary sale. As I lay my eyes on the pair I was beside myself. The clouds parted and the sun shone through leading me to boot comfort I had never discovered before. 

Photo credit: Runway Daily- FRYE is a common choice among our fav A-listers!!!

Although when not on sale the boots can be a bit pricy, FRYE quality is well worth the splurge! Many feel boots are fall/winter footwear attire but these boots scream season-less!! The studded short ‘Jenna’ boot makes any pair of shorts or skirt rugged and sexy. 

So do your feet a favor and beautify them with comfort and style!! Delve into FRYE!!!

Sexy Hellacious High Heels

Ladies Ladies Ladies!!!! As a woman tall or short, curvy or thin, we cannot get enough of high heels!! Although some women claim they cannot wear heels due to back problems, foot discomfort, and long hours at the office, designers like Francesco Russo for Sergio Rossi are exploring ways to perfect the fabulous sexy heel.

 Heels make men drool and women envy each others' backsides.  Although known for creating foot problems and body aches, women still spent $38.5 billion on shoes in the U.S. The designers have discovered that a high quality shoe must be made with a sturdy invisible shank supported by a sturdy heel and a cushioned foot-bed. This design will help add comfort and allow women's weight to be better supported by the shoe.

Delicious Dresses

First I would like to apologize to my fabulous readers for the extensive time between posts. Senior year of college has been quite busy, although not an excuse! I should never deprive you fantastic trend setters from fashion.


Weather has been beautiful lately and what better way to start off Spring than for my gorgeous gals to wear dresses. With so many different styles, dresses can be versatile and can be worn from day to night for those who do not have time between work and play.

Create a conservative look for work by adding pantyhose, blazer, or sweater. Dress it up in the evening with a high pump, strappy sandal, and bold jewelry.

Hearty Hardy

Yes the label has been out for quite some time now and yes there are plenty of haters but I love the Hardy!!! The line is fun, bad ass, and the right amount of edge to up the cool factor of your outfit. Anyone walking down the street in a piece from Ed Hardy is bound to look "cool, sexy, and edgy."

David Beckham looks sexy in Ed Hardy

The line is certainly nothing less than "hearty." With hats, pants, swimsuits, shirts, shoes, sunglasses, cologne, perfume, etc. there is plenty to choose from to amp up your style!! Celebs are crazy for Hardy as am I.


One piece form their line everyone should own is a hat. The hats are perfect the revive a plan outfit or hide a bad hair day in killer style.

Sylvester Stallone looks edgy and bad ass in Head to Toe Ed Hardy

Smokin Short Suiting

Ladies and Gents!! Ya gotta love the new trend of short suiting. Chic, professional, and sexy all wrapped up in one is how I look at it. What better way to look sleek and sharp on a shopping day or night out on the town without sweating your butt off in those spring and summer months!

For ladies this ensemble is especially popular in popping shades of pink and coral. Of course you can't go wrong with black and shades of tan but what better way to stand out than in hot pink. a cute flat or sexy heel looks fab with this outfit. You can go with matching attire or go bold with the blazer and neutral shorts.

Kourtney Kardashian looks super cute in her Bec & Bridge shorts suit

For the pink trend a few designers have mastered the sexy look

Nanette Lepore, DKNY, Jenni Kayne (Spring 2012)

Gents can also pull off the look if they dare. Grays, Blues, Khakis, and shades of Black all look fab on the male body! Mixing and matching blazers and shorts with a pair of oxfords or Sperry style loafers look absolutely fab for a BBQ or summer night dinner date!
