White tinted fashions are like LBDs, you need at least one in your wardrobe. Moreover, do you like fashion that is easy to style? The jumpsuit is a chic piece that can be dressed up or down. Go causal with flats or go nighttime glam with a pair of heels. Add a matching bag and you are all set to walk right out your door.

The Jardin Lace Jumpsuit is a total spring dream. Even though it is long-sleeved with full length pants it incorporates a few sassy elements.

Editor Pick: Le Bag Dress by Le Snob

Arianne Suggs April 6, 2016April 6, 2016Leave a Comment

Hey Everyone!

Happy Hump Day to ya dolls and hope your week thus far has been absolutely fabulous. I have come across so many amazing fashion lately it has been difficult to pick just one. My aim is to roll out as many picks as possible in the next few weeks so may my hands be steady, keyboard blessed and coffee pot plentiful (LOL). Today, my pick is an exceptional piece from Le Snob. I am always a sucker for innovation, outstanding tailoring and adaptable design. The Le Snob Le Bag Dress is comprised of all three.

Le Bag Dress is the first ever gown that transforms from a handbag into a dress! Yes, you read that correctly, but I shall say it once more. It is a bag that can be unfastened and re-buckled into a stylish dress. This creative design is as exciting as when convertible heels (heels that would turn into flats) were first introduced. Imagine getting a text after work to meet your man, or being at your best friends house in sweats and you finally don’t have to go all the way home to get ready for a night out. For once the answer and key to your fashion salvation would lie right with your handbag. No more of the whole, “I would of gone but I wasn’t dressed right.”

Even better is that the Le Bag Dress turns into a super chic LBD (Little Black Dress) with exquisite detailing. Fringe has come back into vogue for 2016 and this dress design includes 18k gold fringe. All and all this couture piece is all about luxurious practicality. Something any fashionista could easily appreciate.

That is all for now loves!

Arianne xoxo

Pantone’s 2016 Colors Of The Year

Arianne Suggs December 5, 2015December 5, 2015Leave a Comment

No ladies, your eyes did not fail you as you perused the title of this post. History has been made when it comes to next year’s selection of shades to envy and place on trend. As any beauty maven or fashionista knows normally one shade is chosen but next year two shall reign supreme.

Therefore, what are the two tints that we need to go out and grab? Pantone has selected Serenity which is a pretty, ethereal light blue as well as Rose Quartz which is a delicate light pink. We foresee both colors being a major hit during spring when fresh color is often much appreciated and considered en vogue.

Here is a closer look at the two shades courtesy of Pantone:

The color of palette of the two tints are extremely complimentary of each other. Nevertheless, here is why the pair of colors were chosen out of the entire spectrum:

Although not outrageously bold both colors can still take a style up a few notches. These colors work for day or night and can be versatile for dressing up or down. With such ease ensembles for 2016 will be a cinch.

Rose Quartz

Serenity
