Don't Bend Too Low

Mini Dresses are "hot" the Spring/Summer 2008. You can be sure to find mini dresses in about every major department store and basically in every color. I'm personally loving the mini dress trend, so much that I purchased one in brown/black stain trim. After trying on three different others. I must say that they are very short. At first I felt real sexy and hot, I guess my stylist had something to do with that. When I got home I felt like the mini dress was just for me. It was the style of the mini and it was way too short, so short that when I went to bend down you could see everything. So I decided to put on my pair of slim jeans to go underneath and a mini one button cardigan. I felt much much and classy looking.


If you are like me and you love certain trends. Find ways to make the "it trend" your personal look. There is nothing like wearing something that you do not feel or look fabulous in.

Putting On Your Best Dress

Have you ever had the hardest time searching for that "special" something to wear? Either if it is for a dinner party, social event, or even an high society charity event. Not sure if what you are wearing will have you fitting in the crowd or having you on the worst dressed column in the news paper. Getting ready for a special event can be a little stressful. It is best to plan ahead, even if you have to hire a fashion stylist to make sure that things go smoothly and you look your very best.

Something New & Fresh

Are you looking for something soft and classy to add to your wardrobe? Something that is tasteful that you can wear to the office and out on the town. I was shopping around the other day and notice the BCBG Maxazria 2008 Spring and Summer Collection. I love their new concept and how the designers view this spring/summer collection. You will find some basics that you can add to your wardrobe. Hem lines are always the trend, but BCBG makes it modern and chic. Loving the leather belts, it defines and brings definition to the woman's waist. Flowing hem lines, the fabrics seems to be flawless and flattering to the body.

This collection is something new and fresh. If you can not afford BCBG look and shop for anything that you can layer, hem lines, sheer or silk fabrics, something flowy and comfortable.
