Lookbook: The Red Dress

Arianne Suggs April 14, 2015April 14, 2015Leave a Comment

Bright, bold colors are great to go along with spring’s festive and vibrant vibe. Birds are singing, flowers are blossoming which encourages styles that are airy and relaxed. However, whenever I want to punch things up a bit I stay in the realm of bold shades and opt for red. Red is sassy and fun and looks great on a wide range of skin tones.

I paired my red dress with gold accessories, including a bracelet and snake head heels. Since the color is boisterous tons of accessories are not really necessary. So then, have fun with your fashion and don’t be afraid to add some vibrancy to your look.

Love Always,

Arianne

Lookbook: Coachella 2015

Arianne Suggs April 12, 2015April 12, 2015Leave a Comment

Hey Everyone!

For today’s lookbook I decided to create a look that could be worn at Coachella, one of the biggest music festivals in the whole world! Coachella is held out in the desert in California so the heat should never be counted out when styling an ensemble. With temperatures reaching above 100 degrees going a little summery even despite it being spring is a perfect option.

For my outfit I paired denim shorts with a black crop top and black sandals. It may be hot during the day but it can cool off at night so slipping on that plaid shirt you tied around your waist can easily rectify that fashion issue. Skin is just as great of an accessory as jewelry so I slathered on a lotion that has a little shimmer to give my skin a nice glow. Lastly, to tote my essentials around I added a fringe handbag to incorporate a little hobo chic.

Love Always,

Arianne

Kevan Hall Goes Sporty for El Paseo Fashion Show

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 26, 2015March 23, 2015Leave a Comment

Sportswear is tough to not only design, but make it look chic from every angle.

When worn a designer would need to think of how it would work as well as look with movement. Kevan Hall seemed to fully understand what women are looking for when purchasing sportswear.

His collection included many often over looked details especially from a style viewpoint. We especially took note of the vivid colors, which Hall told us he felt made the designs pop and encapsulated the season perfectly. We would have to agree one hundred fold that Hall’s designs were fresh and unpretentious.

These forward looking silhouettes would keep any lady from blending in with the rest of the crowd at the local country club.

Candice Held Shows at El Paseo Fashion Week

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 23, 2015March 23, 2015Leave a Comment

Designer Candice Held proved that all a woman really needs is the right dress.

Her collection included beautiful prints and gowns of various lengths that accentuated the model’s shapes effortlessly. The collection would be excellent for summer holidays or jet-setting around the world thanks to their resort-like feel. It is oh, so easy to literally envision ourselves in these fabulous designs while in the Caribbean or on a Hawaiian escapade.

We studied the looks and fell in love with the bow ties that held the gowns together in the back. Little details such as these made the collection a true delight to engage ones stylish senses.

Editor’s Diary: El Paseo Fashion Week 2015

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 22, 2015March 22, 2015Leave a Comment

El Paseo Fashion Week is in full effect and we are flexing our own fashion muscle. So then, how did we decide how to style ourselves for this stylish night out?

Alicia: I love the color red so it was a simple choice to go with a sassy red dress. I accessorized my look with a gold necklace and black/gold heels. I always believe that great fashion should accentuate your best assets.

Arianne: I wanted to go bold without being the loudest lady in the room! You can never go wrong with a nice print, and with stripes being a huge trend for spring, I felt it was the perfect choice for the night. As many women always fear, I dread being caught in the exact same ensemble as someone else. For this reason, knowing that most attendees [women] would opt for a dress or pant suit, I decided to go with shorts.

DKNY: Spring 2015 RTW

Arianne Suggs March 18, 2015March 18, 2015Leave a Comment

DKNY showed off just how fun fashion can be with their runway show highlighting their spring 2015 RTW collection. Boisterous shades, extra large prints and some serious layering added to the chic allure. We loved this out of the box ensemble that proves that layering can look hip, current and very modern.

Fashion Notes: There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing sneakers with a dress of skirt. Fashion doesn’t always have to be so dressy, keep your look causal with flats or athletic kicks.
